Previous thread: >>147212951
>8 threads until 500Though, the numbering was fucked up during the first 10 threads, so it may be less or more.
>>147375519
I am conflicted by thisShadow and Tails version when
>>147376278
>first 10 threads
make it first 16
and then again at thirty something
>>147376278
From what I remember we got it corrected eventually, but some early general wonkiness could essentially be ignored at this point.I've been helping get /lozg/ off the ground, and we had a couple threads without post numbers, and then someone jumped back three from what we were at when he added numbers back in.
>>147376462
And a bit in the mid 100s I think.
>>147376278
We had a couple repeat numbers recently so it's probably closer, if not past.
In fact, this very thread could be #500, but let's just ignore thatbecause ages ruin the canon
>>147376574
>>147376462
>>147376278
>>147376541
I think the number corrected every time.
Posting best Chaotix.
>>147376991
I want to bully Charmy
Do you think thread 500 will be fast?
>>147377246
No, but we'll reminisce I guess.
>>147377181
>>147377246
It'll be full of shitposting.
>>147376925Needs a bit more buttah. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6byu9rKjBg8
>>147377246As a couple month old newfag, I look forward to oldfags reminiscing about old threads and drama
>>147376991
>Blaze with her hair down
>Amy with her hair up
Oh lawdy...
>>147377246
I'm hoping for lots of Bump and Sage?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5fFT_KpBJ8
>>147378106
Who?
>>147378106
Thissss
>>147378770
I feel like Sonic should be running away instead of letting this happen.
>>147377893
Here's a recap from the first anniversary.
>>147378770
Hope we get something similar to this on the 500th thread.
>>147378816
>I feel like Sonic should be running away instead of letting this happen.
Only if Sonic was being hugged by someone insane like Amy.
>>147379106
>Bump
>Sage
>not insane
>>147379106
Amy's not so much insane as she is incredibly determined.
>>147379328
Debatable.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hGNAsTz0uU
>>147378770
Oh, I haven't seen this one yet. Cute.
What if Sage...
had a gun.
>>147379106
I hope weget another pic by that artist, I love hisor hershit so much.
>>147379328
>Amy
>Not Insane
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5r0rbnhzhdU
>>147379325
Bump is just an idiot, Sage is lazy.
>>147379523I hope so too anon.
>>147379531
Eh. I think the only game that really leans towards Amy being insane is Heroes, but everyone in that game is written pretty horrible.
>>147379897
What sane person looks for their not boyfriend on a aircraft carrier in the middle of the ocean
>>147379008
I like how Senpai came to the thread a few days ago.
If that really was him.
>>147379816
>>147379897
That and Battle,since Amy thought Sonic was using Emerl to practice being a father and Amy felt like she was the mother, such a creepy mind Amy has.
>>147380224
True enough, I forgot she was written pretty loopy in Battle as well.
>>147380078
I guess that makes Tails insane too, since he was looking for his not boyfriend on the same carrier.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQjkQwlzYyI
>>147380378
He's got a plane though with weapons, how did Amy even get there, and how we she even break him outBros>Hoes
>>147380378
>I guess that makes Tails insane too, since he was looking for his not boyfriend on the same carrier.
Oh fuck!
>>147380224
In Sonic Battle, Amy's delusions combined with her own magical abilities caused an illusionary Sonic to come into existence and fight with her.
>>147380891
Wasn't it less delusions and more Rouge kicking her face in so hard it caused hallucinations
>>147380891
I don't remember the game 100%, but I think the hallucinations started because Rouge beat the shit out of her.
>>147380965
>>147381052
Sonic Battle sounds more hilarious then I remember when playing it, can some draw Amy getting her shit kicked in by Rouge while hallucinating
>>147381212
I really didn't like Battle's story honestly. But it may be me projecting the entire game into my hate of some of the bullshit fights the game puts you in.
When will the comics introduce a Sea Lion?
>>147382861
Proof Steven Butler will put human breasts on anything and everything.
>>147383192
You say that like it's a bad thing.
>>147383192
At least its a mammal
SONIC FELL FOR IT
>>147380683
>Bros>Hoes
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qyPSoZC2qc
Sthg how would you react if they introduced a new character in the anniversary game? Adventure 2 had Shadow and 06 had Silver
>>147384623
They have plenty of characters already. Why don't they use those instead of making another one?
>>147384623
Annoyed, because of the reason >>147384758
gave. The games have a serious problem of introducing characters then forgetting them.
>>147384623
I would want it to be a cute girl, but then I don't really want a eruption of waifu fags and pornfags draw the new flavor for likes
>>147384623
With hostility, probably. There are so many things I want to see with the current characters. Them adding another one would mean not only that we wouldn't get anything with them this time but also that it would become even more difficult to see it happen in the future.
>>147384623
id react okay only if it was a girl with big boobs that rouge could compete with
>>147385087
A fat tat cat to make itty bitty Blaze upset.
>>147384623
Id want them to develop the characters we already have instead of adding new ones

>>147385696
Making good progress anon, keep on practicing!
GUYS WHAT IF THE ANNIVERSARY CHARACTER IS MIGHTY
>>147385985
>mighty
>ever coming back
>>147385985
Mighty's been stuck on the moon for years.
>>147385985
>Sonic Time Travels back so far he teams up with his past concepts
It'd be pretty cool, I want Sonic fighting with Pajama Eggman
>>147385985
I was always bothered by that picture why make an official render of mighty if you're never gonna include him in a game
>>147386112
Knuckles Chaotix described him as being a traveller. So obviously he's travelling around the world to this very day, and just so happens to always be on the other side of wherever Sonic is.
>>147379328
Doesn't matter what you call it, crazy is still crazy
>>147386157
It's fanart.
>>147386405
Didn't Aaron say it's official?
>>147386482
>>147386405
Yes he did.
>>147386482
He did? I dunno, something about it just looks off. Like the kind of fan art that ALMOST looks official, but it's not quite there.
>>147386482
This is what was said.
>>147386126
What about Madonna and the Sonic the Hedgehog Band?
>>147386780
sure
YOU HIPSTERS NEED TO FUCK OFF WITH CLASSIC SONIC
>star trek comic humble bundle already outsold the sonic one
>>147387868
>tv series from the 60s with mainly older fans
>video game series from the 90s with mainly younger fans
It's not surprising.
>>147387870
Hurt the Sonic
>>147388602
Please refrain from bullying the hedgehog.
>>147389727
Why are you so slow, /sthg/?
>>147393204
Busy with stuff.
>>147393204
About to go to bed. Gonna need the energy to blow shit up tomorrow.
Did they finish posting that Chaotix cover?
>>147393204
4th of july
>>147393543
Nope, the stopped updating it regardless of how many donations they got.
Remember ads like these?
>>147393881
Goddamn, I miss that game. Was the first Gamecube game and Sonic game I ever got
>>147393881
I haven't seen a proper video game ad in a long time.
>>147394058
Yeah i miss whenever I would see ads like these in like Nickelodeon Magazine or something whenever I was younger.
>>147393881
>>147394154
>tfw you will never see Sonic in an ad
>>147393881
>>147394027
I still pop it in from time to time, along with Sonic Gems Collection. It really was a golden age.
>>147394027
Wow, you couldn't have done much better for your first Sonic game anon.
>>147394376
Look at that cute rat!
>>147394497
I want to hug him and tell him he is a rat
>>147393881
>>147394154
>>147394342
nostalgia
>>147395326
Yes, very nostalgic
>>147395326
SHEDOO BESKETBAL
>tfw I like I Am...All of Me unironically
Fuck.
>>147398080
I unironically love every vocal theme from Heroes
>>147398080
At least you don't like All Hail Shadow
The worst thing Crush 40 will ever be a part of
>>147386126
that would actually be pretty cool if for the anniversary you literally travelled to other games. It starts with sonic collecting time stones in CD and then going back to busting out of the labyrinth game and then you rescue mighty and ray, which leads into chaotix where knuckles is introduced and then you do bits of S3+K.
It would be amazing if you got to meet all the old cast and they had funky new art and shit to celebrate the 25th.
I mean we're playing hypotheticals right?
>>147398323
Is-is it okay to like I Am All of Me?
>>147398408
Yeah, it's a much better theme for Shadow
If we're admitting to liking Shadow songs, I really like The Chosen One. It just screams like late 90s electro grungy whatever the fuck was going on at that point in time.It reminds me of the Animorphs theme tune.
>tfw listening to Team Rose's theme now

SONIC IS ON THE GO
>>147398646
I think this is the best ending theme in all of it's angsty glory.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=noBucnkjd6k
Oh and by the way, This Machine is the best Shadow theme.

>then Modern Sonic quickly flashes through all of his transformations: Super, Darkspine, Excalibur, Werehog, Final Color Blaster, before finally settling on Hyper
>they take down Eggman and save the world and the timeline
They would never have to make another Sonic game because that would be the perfect game
>>147399078
It'd be very awkward.
>>147399078
Get ready to be disappointed.
>anniversary character
Huh?
>>147398616
So much better than My Sweet Passion. Though nothing would beat Where I Want to Be.
>>147399284
>that would be the perfect game
No, I don't think so.
>>147398616
I think you might this:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOaKDfZrG0k
It's by the vocalist of Sweet Sweet Passion.Her album is really cute.
>>147399425
Why does Amy have the best themes?
>>147399463
Then tell us your idea of a perfect Sonic anniversary game if you're so great
>>147399284
>Hyper Sonic
But that doesn't exist.
>>147399647
Fuck off Iizuka
>>147399647
It was created by Sonic Team and used in a Sonic game with a number in it so it's canon no matter how you look at it.
>>147399698
Iizuka was a designer for S3&K. I'm pretty sure he'd have known what was bonus content and what was meant to be canon.
>>147398408
Everyone likes I Am All of Me.
>>147399787
If he didn't consider Hyper Sonic canon he wouldn't have made it or the Super Emeralds in the first place
>>147399913
They were added as a bonus for combining Sonic 3 and Sonic & Knuckles. As a way of making it up to the players for not releasing the full game at once. It was never intended to be this canon super form.
>>147399779
way I figure it, it's a thing that COULD happen but didn't.
>>147400034
Hyper Knuckles is mentioned in Sonic Chronicles. Doesn't matter why they were created, what matters is that Hyper forms are canon
>>147400209
>Chronicles
>canon
Sega has disowned it and Archie can't use anything from it. It's a no-show of a game that nobody wants and isn't canon even to the creators.
Does it really matter anymore? The person in charge doesn't consider it canon/doesn't want to use it, so you'll probably never see it again.
>>147398472
I like throw it all away more personally
>>147400475
This is also true.
>>147400427
It was licensed by Sega when it was released. Sega officially acknowledged the existence of Hyper forms outside of Sonic 3. What happened to the game afterward is irrelevant.
Hyper.
Is.
Canon.
>>147399284
>Not super hyper fighting darkspine excalibur werehog championship edition
step it up son.
>>147399528
sa3 ofc
>>147400787
I prefer Super Hyper Ultimate Darkspine Thesaurus Zero the Hedgehog AKA Jesus Zero the Hedgehog
>>147400038
but it DID happen, look >>147399779 there is a picture of it.
It will be happened; it shall be going to be happening; it will be was an event that could will have been taken place in the future. Simple as that.
>>147400840
You literally have no taste and are no longer allowed to judge other people's ideas.
>>147401030
That "Zero Suit" comment was added after the fact, right?
>>147401030
That looks horrible.
>>147401030
I actually don't mind this design that much. Katella always looked out of place, this has that Unleashed vibe.
>>147400993
it didn't. It's like how Wario didn't actually get a planet at the end of Wario Land. yes, that was the best ending, but it didn't happen because he only got a castle.
>>147401520
>he thinks Wario doesn't have his own planet
getaloadofthiscam.jpg
>>147401872
i like you.
TWIST:
THE CASTLE
WAS ON WARIO'S PLANET
>>147402354
What would happen if Eggman took over Wario's Planet for his Incredible Interstellar Amusement Park, but it turned out Wario already had an Amusement Park there?
>>147402609
hostile corporate takeover
So for the reboot is Eggman a robot or human?
>>147402870
He's an egg, man.
>>147376991
They could fit in an entire zone behind Sally's breastplate.
>>147402870
Human
>>147403010
Can I fit my head there instead
>>147402870
Reboot Eggman has always been a human, like in the games.
>>147403385
Still not 100% convinced he's human. I mean, we've seen humans and they sure as hell don't look like Eggman.
>>147403568
Oh.
>>147403568
>Using Sonic 06 as evidence
You what
>>147403568
Eggy is an alien.
>>147403568
>>147403835
Nevermind the fact that Sonic Team fucking changed Eggman's design to fit in with the shitty humans of '06.
>>147404020
>>147403568

>>147404398
>>147404398

>>147405001
wait, what about Maria? That's some really fucking crazy sexual Dimorphism.
>>147405135
the Walrus
>>147405135
It's in the name, doofus. They don't call him Manegg.
When's the next comic coming out? I've been meaning to have an Obsess Over Sonic day but I need some material for it.
>>147406995
Mega Drive is coming out in 3 days and Universe #87 is coming out on the 18th.
So what the fuck was up with the ending of SATAM?
Favorite Sonic Fangame?
Hard Mode:No 2D.
>>147409331
Robotnik died and Sally and Sonic were a thing. Had seasons 3 and 4 hit, Knuckles would have been introduced along with Nicole's origins.
>>147409605
GAUGHHH
>>147409487
I have no favorite fangame.
I'M NOT DONE WITH YOU YETSONIC WIND
The manpig is cute! CUTE!
I hope he gets more love in the future, it was a breath of fresh air seeing a werecreature that didn't go feral and ergo turned the game into an edgefest.

>>147409605
Hurst had absolutely no plans to use Knuckles.
http://www.sonicsatam.com/information/the-lost-3rd-season/
If you read into the kind of stuff Hurst did while making SatAM, he was pretty much exactly a total hack like Penders was.

Shadow's a faker!
>>147422563
Pretty sure Sonic was the faker.
>>147419813
So many people
>>147422596
Shadow can't even beat Sonic!
>>147419813
>yfw Mario is on there
>>147398323
Not to be unexpected, considering Magna-Fi had to slap it together after their record label wouldn't let them use the first song they wrote for the game.
>>147422487
Surprised an anon hasn't done storytime yet.
>>147422563
>>147422596
Shadow was artificially created to be the Ultimate Lifeform.
Sonic was naturally born and grew to become the Ultimate Lifeform over the course of his adventures.
>>147424112
The one anon who has both it and a scanner doesn't want to bend his pages or some such.
Fortunately, I ordered two copies, so unless a digital version gets storytimed first, I'll have it for youeventually.
>>147424120
Let's just say all robot Sonics are fakers and call it a day.
>>147424120
Sonic's just a guy who likes adventure.
>>147424764
Will Jacko ever get a cameo in the Sonic games?
>>147424502
It's that simplicity and the adventures themselves that lead to Sonic becoming the Ultimate Lifeform.
>>147402870
Human.
Preboot Eggman was also human, got deroboticized via mandate. Ken was pretty salty about the ordeal, so Eggy wouldn't shut up about it for the longest time.
