It's not *new* new, but I've put together a compilation of all 11.5 hours of Sonic retrospectives I've made so far!
And this is only like half the history! I shudder to think about how much longer this thing will get when and if I make it to the present day. :V

Minor issues: The melodramatic tone, the realistic world design, everything about Chaos Island, the boss fights being INCREDIBLE spectacle without a lot of substance or challenge, some of the ways they characterized Tails & Eggman.
Silly question: what specifically didn't you like about Frontiers again? I feel like there's a bunch of different things it could be.
Honestly curious if our issues overlap, and I'm someone who likes the game.

I was interviewed at a con over the weekend, and asked what my favorite Christmas game is.
I bet you all already know the answer.

Hey, the only thing that's for sure about Sonic is that nothing's for sure. I think they'll iterate on the open-zone formula next time, but it's anybody's guess what exactly that'll *mean*.

Honestly, Frontiers + SOAP Shoes is prolly my favorite Modern Sonic model anyway, and Superstars is easily the best the character has ever looked in 3D. So I guess I just don't have much to complain about when it comes to this stuff!

Love these new delightfully off-model figures from Fang designer Shin’ichi Higashi. You could make the argument they're somewhere between a little too weird and not quite weird enough, but I'll take my orangutan Eggman and Charlie-Brown-Ninja-Turtle Knuckles however Sega cares to serve them to me

I *do* hate that it's been nine years of this shit, but it's as true now as it was then.

I'm going to stream.
I'm thinking of doing a Pokémon video.
Should I play Pokémon on stream so I can get some footage?
Or should I play the Air Riders test?

29 long years have passed since I founded the emulation archive, Zophar's Domain, on 11.9.96. To this very day, the site still stands as a testament to an era that never actually disappeared but continues to live in the hearts of retrogamers all over the word. Emulation Forever!

From the late 90s up until about the mid to late-aughts, a *lot* of culture was hellbent on being as mean as possible all the time for no reason.

I honor of @camreigle.bsky.social’s birthday, one of my favorite pieces of artwork that captures the critical anti-Donkey Kong Country sentiments of the 2000s and early 2010s… and now familiar they felt.
