who here /gonna pirate/?
I like Sonic but not enough to pay

nu/v/ will respond to it

>I get home from work on Monday 90 minutes before the game unlocks
>Just enough time to have a nice meal and a drink
>Not scheduled to work Tuesday so I can play all day

Lara-Su was never good

Does anyone find it hard to get into games when you're eagerly anticipating a new one?

I haven't been this excited for a game since 2007.

I am legit salty right now

I cant beat the fucking Hidden Palace boss in Sonic 2 taxman I keep getting fucked

Someone from the last thread found a loophole to get Mania early

Here you go.

I know that feeling right fucking now, I've replayed 3 complete and CD like 3 times each waiting for Mania to come out. Any time I try to play a different game I just lose interest and go back to sonic.

can someone explain this meme to me? Why is it posted in every thread?

>game unlocks at 1 EST on Steam

Well I'm both glad and disappointed. At least I don't have to worry about stores not opening up early so I can unlock the game ASAP, but this still kind of sucks.

With all the gifting going on I guess I'll go ahead and be a faggot too and beg for a copy here. If you guys are already tapped out because I'm 2slow then that's cool too.

These threads have been a breath of fresh air for me anyway and it's been nice shitposting with you all for the past couple of weeks.

I'm getting like this, trying to find something to play to pass the time until i do my playthrough of the classics before the 15th. Everything is either too long or not really appealing.

There is a lot of stuff that's posted in every thread.

Alright boys, here you go.

What should I play to pass the time until Mania comes out?

Sonic was never good. Period.

ANYONE GOT A CLUE ON WHEN THE EUROPEAN ESHOP UPDATES?

>I started the wave of autistic children making daily posts on every Mania thread 24/7
I fucking hate myself now. Sorry to all of you, except the shitposters.

Wake me up when Hydrocity and the torrent are here

Sonic 1, 2, CD, and 3K.
Sonic Advance 1 and Sonic the Portable.
ROM hacks that add characters like Amy and Vector to the classic games.

I will
No physical release no buy

Super Mario World

Is there a Sonic version of this image with Eggman/Robotnik? If not, why not?

Why is life so cruel?

>ice cathedral level
>Flying Battery Zone
>cog wheel in the sky thing level
>Stardust Speedway Zone
>another original level
>and then a final zone that's either original or Death Egg or something
>maybe a Super Sonic level

calling it now

WORK THAT SUCKA TO DEATH

Today i will remind them.

If it's any consolation, nu-Sonic Team would most likely fuck it up beyond repair or have it outsourced to someone even worse. Sometimes it's better to be an obscure classic.

Some have been saying they will double dip

>Still no achievement/trophy list

Why hasn't it show up yet? There are games coming out several weeks after Mania that have already been picked up by tracking sites.

Fuck off Karl, of course you would want achievements

For each classic game? That's 10 levels already.

>Sonic Advance 1
Just finished a Knuckles playthrough not even 10 minutes ago and didn't care much for it. I mean it wasn't Sonic 4 but it just didn't have that magic. Maybe because it was really short and easy, or maybe because the screen is zoomed in too much. Any place where I can find maps to compare with the Genesis games?

soniccenter.org/maps/sonic_advance

...

NO WAY?

Because that would suck.

Nobody likes the chaotix. Fuck off.

Sonic Robo Blast 2

Espio is pretty neat. I can tolerate Green Knuckles. Whatsitsname can fuck off though.

>Scrap Brain is in the hole
You know it would be a neat twist if it collapsed after the events of Sonic 1. Fighting your way through a gauntlet of a sunken factory intermixed with Labyrinth's ruins

Sonic Advance 3 has the best maps out of the Advance series.

never ever

NO WAY!

I probably can't afford it until like late september because i owe so much damn money, god I wanna pirate but i don't think I can do it without feeling like shit. The extra wait is gonna TEAR ME APART, guys. Staying off of Sup Forums for weeks is gonna suck, but I don't want SHIT to be spoiled for me.

See you guys on the other side

Thanks my dude
Fun fact: Naoto Oshima is actually a fan of Lupin III. He's drawn Lupin on his Twitter.
I was mostly just memeing, but ideally a Chaotix character for Mania would be Vector and Espio on a sling ring with the controls from Knuckles' Chaotix.

FUCK aidsmoby

OUR GIRL

>Act 3 of Scrap Brain in Sonic 1 was literally Labyrinth
>they could technically get away with having Labyrinth be in the hole and right after GHZ, despite it actually being Scrap Brain

Couldn't find one, so I made a quick scribble for you user.

Can you please stop. You, the piratefag and the utopia guy are together more annoying than even the most rabid Rosy believer. Get new material.

>ideally a Chaotix character for Mania would be Vector and Espio on a sling ring with the controls from Knuckles' Chaotix.
After just playing a ROM hack of Vector (solo) in Sonic 1, I think you need to fuck off. They all have their own individual nuances that would make them distinct and fun to play through the game as, without being so drastically different that the levels don't need to be reworked, since they already take Tails and Knuckles' abilities into account.

That's total horseshit
Sonic is legendary

Kill yourself

piratefag here. I've only done this in 3 threads so far. The other times were not me.

Yeah but trying to fuck around with a sling ring in a level that clearly wasn't designed for it would be fun as hell. Not worthy of being an actual feature, though, but then again I'm just memeing.

t. played Sonic Classic Heroes with a friend as Tails and Knuckles on a sling ring and totally broke the game while laughing our asses off.

Seriously.

What is the likelihood of unlockable characters?

okay faggot, I know what you want, I can gift one (1) copy of the game
Shit out that steam account before I change my mind
and if you're lying because you are a cheap faggot your mother doesn't even die in your sleep tonight, she will be swapped out with Lara-su and let Penders have a pajama pary in your room with Izukaconsider yourself warned

I heard that the Steam version unlocks at 1PM EST on the 15th. Is that true?

I really like the Chaotix. I just wish someone would redo there sprites to fit in with the genesis games. Playing Sonic Classic Heros to play through as Choatix is fun, but there sprites do look jarring in the levels.

>the utopia guy
Come on nigger, Utopia's just one part of the image. It's not my fault you sperg out and zero in on one part.
And I've made other OC as well

all but CD. that's 9, with 6 for the new levels. 60:40.

Sonic 3&K is the only good Sonic game ever made.

id/TheMaskedGentleman

dude no way, if you do that you'll be making my year :')

OG director expressed interest in making a new Ristar game back in 2006 but said it would be unlikely

Is tails doing the kirby dance or something?

0%

1.5 on a scale from 1 to 10. Personally I'm waiting until CW/HCG/PWG's next game for characters other than the main dudes.

Me, I'll get it on sale. Maybe.

To the "Sonic was never good" memers

>Too poor to afford mania
>nobody will gift it to me due to the number of games in my steam library
I wanna kms

ENOUGH OF THE BEGGING. JUST TORRENT IT WHEN IT COMES OUT.
GEEZ GUYS, HAVE SOME DIGNITY

oi vey
>inb4 cd cucks shitting this thread
>again

I JUST WANNA KNOW WHAT THE MEDALLIONS DO

As a side note, does anyone else think that 'medallion' is a covert CWC reference?

Yuck

Assuming he's not lying, what if some other faggot just posted his steam account and you gave the game to the wrong person?

That poster is fucking beautiful.

Mine childhood feels

Can I purchase it?

They likely just net you some bonus content like artwork and shit. Nothing big like characters though.

Probably not from every classic game, but some sort of double dipping is likely, since we know about 60% of zones are classic zones and there are at least 5 new ones (one for each Heavy)
5 classic zones + 5 new ones doesn't amount to a 60/40 proportion and put together isn't quite as long as 3&K, which Mania was compared to in length.

This is an odd situation where beggars somehow have more honor that piratefags.

At least beggars want to help bolster the game's sales before getting to play it.

Not until all 4cucks or until I get bored fuck off from this board forever.

>4cucks
Call them what they really are: Portablecucks

What does Spax think of Sonic Mania?

Portacucks?

I'm honestly expecting Sky Chase to return just to throw off the number a bit.

fugg, I cannot gift to non-slav people :-DDD
That's what I get for being nice while living in a shithole, sorry user

>Sega disowning and reconning Sonic 4 out of canon
Stop posting. If Sonic 06 can hang around like a tumor for years to come, you bet your ass Sonic 4 won't die.

Hey, man, it's the thought that counts! :)
I'll find a way to play Mania, even if I gotta sell some shit to FUCKING GAMESTOP

Just beat s3 and knux for the first time in a decade Without collecting all the emeralds

I haven't played that in years. How is it now?

you know what you have to do
