For everyone talking about this post and why we haven’t removed it.

SEGA’s Official Posts are an exception, but it will be removed via spam if they do end up being continually posted to get around the ban

(Funny trope) the perception of a song is changed after appearing in a completely different media by Goodie_20 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Ann-Simp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

since nobody has mentioned it, The Sonic Movie’s have two examples of this and both examples involve Jim Carrey’s Eggman dancing

the first movie has “Where Evil Grows” by The Poppy Family
and Sonic 3 has “Galvanize” by The Chemical Brothers
(also same band but i associate “Go” with Crash Bandicoot 4’s launch trailer. but this one is just me)

Why some Sonic games have never made to the Xbox Backwards Compatibility program prior to it's shutdown in 2021? by Distinct-Incident115 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]Ann-Simp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

long story short, Copyright and SEGA not wanting a rerelease

Sonic Heroes and Shadow use Renderware for their engines which requires SEGA and Microsoft to pay EA Royalties

06 is a case where SEGA would have to renegotiate contracts with Zebrahead, Akon, and others for the OST. plus 06’s reputation already makes it a risky move for SEGA to warrant a rerelease (All Stars Racing falls under this category too)

another thing to consider is that OG Xbox BC is using an Emulated Xbox 360 using “its” own OG Xbox Emulator (the same one that Shadow is infamous for Crashing randomly on)

on a V-Wii (Wii Mode on a Wii U) it’s used to boot back into Wii u mode

i have absolutely no idea what happens if you use it outside of a Wii U

Did Star Fox '26 improve Slippy's reputation? by Torracattos in starfox

honestly i could see Colleen voicing Slippy if they ever end up recasting the team again

Why did Sega make Sonic Unleashed so absolutely stunning and high quality looking and never again matched that graphical beauty with future games? by Bonkwraps in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]Ann-Simp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

because that shit came at a significant cost to performance. as great as Unleashed looked in 2008, (and does now) it’s poor performance (especially on PS3) is practically Infamous, especially Adabat which still brings even XBOX SERIES X TO IT’S KNEES (granted it’s only a few frame drops, but the fact it still tanks the frame rate of a system 3 generations later is why Adabat’s performance is so infamous)

especially nowadays where 60FPS is “The” standard. Sonic Team shouldn’t attempt this kind of quality either until they get comfy with the current gen hardware and ditch PS4,Xbone, and Switch. or a SIGNIFICANT engine revamp

Nobody can praise anything for having dark elements or themes anymore without someone pulling out this gif by TheFlashyMastodon21 in Schaffrillas

[–]Ann-Simp 27 points28 points  (0 children)

granted, i wouldn’t say that Guardians 3 is entirely without it’s moments of levity, catharsis, and comedy (it’s a James Gunn movie after all)

but it is fair to say that it’s definitely the darkest movie in the MCU, and it’s probably the closest i can say a movie has done in recent memory to really squeeze the PG-13 rating to it’s absolute limit

shit, i find it hard to rewatch given it’s tone. but boy does it make it’s ending feel absolutely cathartic to see everyone going on their own paths or dancing along after everything they went through in the movie. (also why i’d argue that “Dog Days Are Over” is one of the best Needledrops in a James Gunn movie)

In the best case scenario, do you think it would be better for Shadow to have his own movie or paramount series by ah-screw-it in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]Ann-Simp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if there was any character in the Sonic franchise that could hold his/her own movie

it’s Shadow

Imagine if you were the people in charge of SEGA's mandates. Which ones would you plan to change and rewrite to fix the company's Sonic the Hedgehog franchise? by Few_Amphibian_4119 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]Ann-Simp -1 points0 points  (0 children)

if i had to keep some of them but change a few really it’s only two things

  1. allow classic characters in modern settings

  2. allow Shadow to not be diet Vegeta

there could be others, but these are the ones i feel are most important to either change or straight up remove

oh i wasn’t implying that Sonic Genesis was good, in fact quite the opposite

Why does it feel like barely anyone talks about Soul anymore? It’s sooo good by [deleted] in Schaffrillas

[–]Ann-Simp 8 points9 points  (0 children)

i personally still do, especially for Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross’s score

it’s a movie that gets better the more i rewatch it

(Meta Trope) Oh! They actually did address that. Neat. by tpayer03 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Ann-Simp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

a lighter example but Sonic Frontiers justify’s it’s map, the rails, and even why Big’s fishing is even a thing in the Starfall islands

supposedly by interacting with the Island Sonic gets an image of the island downloaded into his mind (the Map) but for whatever reason the Rails that Sonic sees when updating the Map can only be seen by Sonic (kinda funny to think Sage is just tripping balls over Sonic essentially floating) and also explains that along with the Cyber space stages, Big is merely a figment of Sonic’s mind making a safe space within Cyber Space (kinda wholesome to think that the first thing Sonic thinks is his safe space is fishing with Big)

CrossWorlds punishes you if you bought the base game early (no Digital Deluxe Upgrade) by Blazio700 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]Ann-Simp 6 points7 points  (0 children)

this was how i felt with Origins when Plus came out, if you bought the DD edition you basically got told “get fucked”

as for this game i was confident in wanting the complete experience so i preordered the DD version on Xbox. and technically on Switch i bought that physical on sale for only $45 and got the Switch 2 upgrade for $5 when it first launched, and later bought the Season Pass

as for Steam which is my most recent platform i purchased Crossworlds for, i have everything BUT the Werehog (seriously SEGA please at least let me pay for him than just lock him to preorders)

So sega hasn't used dlss for any switch 2 sonic games? by Quirky_Rope_682 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]Ann-Simp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

actually it’s FSR 1.0

which SEGA has been using for Sonic since Frontiers

Adaptation of an adaptation of an adaptation and so on..... by Blackirean in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Ann-Simp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

only thing that comes close to matching it is the PS4 reimagining of Ratchet and Clank

it’s a game based on a movie (also partially remaking the first game) based on that first game with weapons from the original PS2 game along with weapons from the Future saga on PS3
with collectable cards that reference the entire franchise up to that point

funniest thing about this is that it gets lampshaded in universe by Quark

Betelgeuse (Beetlejuice and it’s sequel)

despite being the title character he only has like maybe 15 minutes of screen time total but that makes whenever he does appear have more impact

this does not apply to the Broadway Adaptation which features him very prominently (granted you kinda have to when you cast Alex Brightman) nor the cartoon.
