If this is to be believe btw, you're gonna have to delete some registry keys as well in order to fully kick the keylogger off your system. At least that explains why the "DRM" consistently set off so damn many antivirus alerts. For their sake I seriously hope they've already fired this incompetent quack of a programmer. I'm still honestly interested to see how l0st plants to explain his way out of this though. Should be a fun read.

Raining on your parade with a truckload of awkward awesomeness. Posts: 4,950 Group: Elite Member #70 Joined: November 11, 2009	SEGA talks about "the future of Sonic" at PAX East, courtesy of Cheat Code Central. Namely, Sonic 4 - Episode II won't have DLC outside of Episode Metal, but won't be the final part of the Sonic 4 story. However, future episodes and potentially even a "Sonic 5" depends solely on the sales and success of previous episodes. If Episode II doesn't turn a decent profit, it'll be put on the backburner and effectively cancelled before we reach a proper conclusion. The 3D games remain the core aspect of the series, but SEGA is acknowledging that fans want more of the Genesis-era gameplay, so future titles may continue the blend of 2D/3D that has been going since Unleashed. The rumours of a reboot seem to be debunked, but the guys talking here are representatives of SEGA, so they may not know anything about the inner plannings. Possibility of other characters besides Sonic being playable in a core title (not Riders or whatever) seems very unlikely at this point, as they are focusing on Sonic's gameplay and slowly reintroducing the wide roster over time. More or less, anyway. Sorry, BL, but Tails may only be there as an NPC for a bit longer. SEGA also acknowledges the desire for more of a "classic showdown" between Sonic and Eggman. Cheat Code Central decided to assume that meant less of the cool story aspects we've seen, like time travel or whatnot, but what SEGA seemingly said makes it very vague as to what they meant by "more old school conflict." Some of what I listed here may also be part of what CCC had claimed or assumed to be the truth, but again, these guys at PAX were only SEGA reps and not necessarily key parts of the developmental staff. There may be a few loose points here that won't be cleared up until someone interviews Takashi Iizuka or something. Or until wee see the next mainstream title announced/leaked.

They had the right idea with the Adventure series, back then I didn't care about how many new characters there were, just the ability to free roam and have a decent story was good enough for me. We need more of that, but with some online connectivity.

Posts: 17,366 Group: All Powerful Deity Member #1 Joined: December 30, 2005	They're justified in holding out on classic stuff if Sonic 4 II doesn't sell; people pissed and moaned for classic games, yet they're not buying them. Sega is having financial problems, so it's only fair to cut the fat, considering a large bulk of the fanbase (much like any other fanbase) is all talk and no action. Otherwise, all the other stuff seems intriguing and I wouldn't mind hearing more, but having Sega be more tight lipped on their projects would be great too, it'd just make the anticipation greater.

That's because they fucked up with what they asked for. People asked for a "Sonic 4", intending for a return to form; a continuation of the Genesis games' formula, not necessarily just the title of Sonic 4. Plus, the Sonic 4 we got is absolute TRIPE. It would be different if these games were any good, but as it is, Sega shat out a game they expected everybody to lap up simply because it was Sonic 4. As far as I can tell, though, Episode II is looking good and hopefully things can mellow out. I also want more like Generations. Edit: I CAN'T FUCKIN' FIND THE BETA LEAK ANYWHERE. Goddamn it if I started work just a week earlier I wouldn't have this problem. Edited by Emerald Spirit, Apr 22 2012, 03:11 AM.

BL;DR Posts: 3,493 Group: Elite Member #80 Joined: September 7, 2010	So footage of All Stars Racing 2 finally got shown, and it turns out everyone's driving transformers. No, I'm not making that up. Here's the interesting stuff I gathered from a glance: - Transformation gimmick is essentially borrowed from MK7, with the exception that car, boat and plane forms all handle differently. A comparison to Hydro Thunder was made for the boat controls, for example. - We'll be getting remixed music this time around rather than direct rips, courtesy of Richard Jacques. - Panzer Dragoon representation as a stage already confirmed. That's bound to make someone happy. - Beat drives a quadbike on land now. - New confirmed character additions are Gillius Thunderhead (Golden Axe) and Vyse (Skies of Arcadia) - Vehicles are supposedly moddable. No specifics given yet. - Story Mode. - The Death Egg DLC from the original game comes as standard. Good thing too, because it was by far the best track in the first game. Yeah, I might as well just give Sumo Digital my money now.

Posts: 4,950 Group: Elite Member #70 Joined: November 11, 2009	The talk about the vehicles morphing as a pace where you can see the changes reminds me of Spyhunter, which just makes this game sound even better. While I was hoping that Sumo would take a crack at a Sonic or SEGA-themed fighting game, this definitely has me interested. Day one purchase for me :3
