I don't have the heart to tell Nocturnowlet that the 3DS M&L sequel would disappoint even further than the other two. Almost forget about my totally not Red Pink GBA, that takes me back.
Professor (in training) Beef channels his inner Shadow for his DAMN debut, or maybe Ron Simmons if he'd prefer.
And of course pre regal Schala one ups us all kicking off with a few paragraphs just to get into the swing of things, sentences need not apply.
And look at us now, we've all become bitter and cynical, we've become varying degrees of JC.

Oh god, I remember that thread. I still have variations of "The gaiety derived from your post exceeded my self-control tolerances, good sir! You are to be applauded for your efforts!" in a txt file on my computer (and I've used it maybe once). I remember this post.
We tried to behave in the spirit of the lost smiley faces, but several years have clearly taken its toll. :V
Edit: holy shit, I barely ever see half of those folks in the thread I linked lately.
I don't think my posting style has changed too much from when I first joined; if anything I'm slightly less of a try-hard.
How appropriate. Even your first post was a tome.
Edit: How did you even find those first posts? I can't see anything past 1000 when I search.

I ain't proud of my earlier posts. Constantly got into petty arguments, sounded angry, and constantly brought up petty points (*Cue the posts of "You still do"*).

Looking at my first posts, my posting style hasn't really changed that much, outside of becoming a bit more friendly.
Also, what does everyone think of the "Sonic's Sidekick" thing?

I'm pretty sure I was already cynical long before joining NeoGAF. Not sure I'd call myself bitter at any point, though.
Tails is one of the better Sonic characters

For the Speed run, I am totally gonna go for different narration styles when talking about how it went... one of which will be like Bastion.
"Don't look down now, little hedgehog. It's a long way, and Mama hedgehog always told him to keep his eye on the goal."

Yeah, my posting style doesn't seem that different...but wtf, my first post was in 2008? I didn't think I lurked around that long.

Goddamn.
Well at least my first post was wanting to see more Lucas in Smash. SmashGAF seems to be pessimistic about him returning in the new one.
Thanks for that. Wow. My opinion on Jak 2 has certainly...changed over the years.

Why/how did GAF get wiped?
I believe he's referring to the old Gaming Age Forum from way way back.

Schala was born with a tome, and she'll die with a tome.
i don't really remember how. funny because i believe at the time people were already calling it neogaf and had been for a while, since 'gaf' referred to the 1997-2000/1 board.

Was looking for previews for stuff on Google Play and noticed that a good bunch of pre-reboot Sonic comics now have Ken Penders' name in the credit descriptions, which weren't there before.

With some help from Dario to set up the rotation and scene, I was able to port the majority of a Unleashed Cutscene to Generations for a test. Missing Particle effects and Chip's Face due to the model not being compatible with Generations. I just always wanted to see the cutscenes in better quality. Although if you look at the real Unleashed Cutscene of this you'll notice the shader difference between them. Just did it for fun nothing serious to it.

I've never played Unleashed but that's pretty cool!

Jeez, just release Sonic Unleashed on Steam already SEGA. I'm sure fans can make a mod that lets you play only the Day Stages.
Twilightzoney

Would love for that to happen since Unleashed has just better shaders in general. This peculiarity and falloff are too strong in Generations compared to Unleashed soft tones.
I personally don't even mind the werehog if he fully maxed out. Once I learned how his level up thing worked the levels suddenly got much quicker to beat. Not that I would go and play that for fun.
Edit: Better yet we already know how to fix the medal amounts in Unleashed so no more need to collect stuff.

So I am finally playing the PC/console version of Generations and damn, this game is amazing. A shame SEGA said they aren't going to make Generations 2.
Also a shame the most recent Sonic games are Wii U exclusives, since I am likely never buying that console, so I will never play them.
Anyway, hi Sonic GAF! Long time no see, I suppose no one here remembers me (I only posted a few times in some old OT).

Thank you for this, Shadow Hog. I've been playing this game for so many years now, and never realized it!
In other news, in case someone missed it, Sonic Unleashed is available digitally for the first time in PSN, since last week!: https://store.sonyentertainmentnetw...shed/cid=EP0177-NPEB01347_00-SONICUNLEASHED01
Robotnik's been getting into the pixie dust.
After seeing Sonic 4 Ep2 special stage, and how close it looks to what I imagined special stages after 3D blast saturn would look like...
Was Episode 2 that bad? I played Episode 1...and well the game left a lot to be desired. I didnt pay much attention to reviews at the time.

Some of these are stretches, and it sort of hinges on Flying Battery still being a part of Sonic 3 instead of moved to Sonic & Knuckles like it ultimately was, buuuuut:
...Son of a bitch I never noticed that.

It managed to be better in ways and a bit worse in others leaving it as lacklustre as the first episode, I guess it could be viewed as a bit better on the whole like it's the polished turd edition of Sonic 4.
+ Tweaked physics that have a better feel to them
+ Mostly improved level design I think
+ Stage themes and elements within aren't as heavily derivative of Genesis/Mega Drive games as Ep1
+ Multiplayer I guess?
- Tails team up moves are pretty overpowered and abusable
- Looooong boring bosses
- Sky Fortress Act 1
- Still Sonic 4 so it carries over most overall weaknesses including the music, now with Dying Duck Desert synths.
+/- Episode Metal, more stages that you might be better off not playing
I had quite the time trolling people when the game leaked on Steam for one day.
(Keep in mind that at point the video title just said "S4E2 Special Stage")

IMO, Sega should've brought on a sequel to Sonic CD (or at the very least, make another Sonic title that's very similar to it in terms of time traveling) with purely Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, & Amy. No more of Sonic's other friends! Or make another Sonic Generations title.
Also, I'm wondering how Sonic gets between Zones in Sonic 1, Sonic 2, Sonic CD, & Sonic 4. Granted, we've seen how he gets between each place in Sonic 3 & Knuckles among other games like Sonic Generations, but I'm just curious about it.
Yeah, I agree. Japan always has ridiculous pricing on their stuff. Music, DVD's, Blu-Ray's, Movies, Animes, Games, you name it.
