Sonic Lost World on the Wii U will not host online multiplayer, but the 3DS version will host a 4-player race online option.

I like it when people use the word "gay" in any context other than a homosexual one - it only proves that they have the maturity of a five year old, as if their obsession with shooters didn't already do a good job of pointing that out. It's also pretty amusing that he pointed out Skyrim considering the fact that, y'know, it's set in the bloody medival era and doesn't even have muskets, let alone generic modern firearms.

But just for fun, let's play around with his logic a bit.

game - gun = gay
game + gun = -gay
game + gun + Arem = ???

What the fuck? Who abandons online multiplayer in a home console game but not the handheld port? That doesn't make a single fucking bit of sense.

Has the multiplayer in any Sonic game really been worth it, though?

That shouldn't be an excuse, even when that is true. In many ways I'd consider it a gigantic improvement - Colours for example was something that really could have benefitted from it, if only to discourage that stupid "tug the lead player backwards because the other players is lagging too far behind" mechanic that resulted from two players sharing the same screen. Likewise, online play for games like the SA2 ports would have been fucking fantastic, even if just for the sake of Chao Races and such.

I was so pissed this wasn't a feature.

Really? People actually thought the multiplayer in SA2 was good? I couldn't stand it, it was unbalanced and completely one sided. Wasn't enjoyable at all and just felt half assed.

Historically Sonic multiplayer has been something of a throwaway, granted, but off the top of my head SA2's the closest it's come to being its own entity in a Sonic game. The only thing especially wrong with it was alternate characters (because seriously, fuck Amy), so with a little tweaking I felt as though they'd be onto a winning formula.

What they're doing here is essentially the opposite. This is cowardly, defeatist, head-in-the-sand bullshit, and it's literally inexcusable, especially on a console in dire need of online shenanigans for people who lack the company to otherwise enjoy them locally. "Because it's not good" is a fucking stupid excuse when Sega could just be making it not not good.

My brother and I had fun with the treasure hunt one only, and that's because we found a way to zap each other dead over and over again. For some reason, that was more entertaining than actually finding shit. We chose Tikal and Rouge because it's always funnier with girls.

That being said, we found out that one level, Pyramid Race I think, was flawed because of track was shorter than the other, and whoever had that track, almost always won.

EDIT: Also, am I the only one who just went "Ok whatever. Next?"

Here's a link to TSSZ, only because no one else has posted about this elsewhere. The Ken Penders/Archie Comics trial is apparently over and Penders will be going ahead with that Lara-Su thing as initially planned.

Archie may have lost the case.

Agree with this on all counts, even the edit. Really, I get that it makes no sense, but honestly, I wouldn't have noticed the multiplayer anyway. Hell, the only reason I even bothered with SatSR's multiplayer was for emblems.
