AKCHUALLY that's the MK II version of Mecha Sonic. The original one was the silver/robo version from Sonic 2 genesis.

And after seeing that pic, I kinda want a "Metal vs Mecha" moment now.
Yea I know the MK differences, was just too lazy to point it out. Fun fact, MKII was actually gonna look more like it did from Sonic 2 before it got redesigned, gonna show off concept art for its super form pre-revamp while I’m at it.

That thread points out that Sonic 06 might have started life as another game altogether. Fascination, never heard that one before, then again I'm not a sonic fag.
Anyone knows the skinny on that?
Sonic 06 was kinda-sorta supposed to be a "reboot" of the series for it's 15th Anniversary.

So basically if it hadn't completely bombed and/or had a shitty dev cycle, we could have had completely different sonic games to the ones we got after 06.

Wonder if the episode 3 game would have Sonic fight Knuckles AGAIN for some arbitrary reason.

Or better yet, they team up, and then Metal and Mecha team up.

You only had to use one of those. But yeah, explains why the game played like ass. They used a physics engine for a game that played completely different to the game that is supposed to play similarly to the old games and shocker, couldn't emulate it very well. Didn't one of the devs try to excuse the shittyness because they were trying to do new things the Genesis games couldn't do? Like running upside down.

You could already run upside down in the Genesis games, albeit not be stuck to the ceiling, but while at full speed. But even that you could eventually in Knuckles Chaotix as Espio, as he had the ability to stick himself to any solid flat surface and run on it.

If the devs really used that as an excuse then they are literal retards that don't know shit about fuck. This newest discovery explains EVERYTHING, right down to the boost pads and bubble enemies fucking EVERYWHERE. Here's a though... if Sega wasn't going to throw them a bone and givem them the physics code from the Genesis games, then why didn't Dimps just use the physics from the Advanced games if they were really going to borrow previous code from their games anyways? Say what you want about them, but they at least play similarly to the classic games.

Ok, but will they release the source code so modders can make Sonic 4 better?

There's really only two ways modders can take this. Either they make an actual classic Sonic 4, or they turn it into another Rush game. Either way, that would probably take time because that would mean reconstructing the stages to fit either play styles, and currently the stages are trying to do 2 things at once and failing at both.

That's what I mean. I remember that statement being made somewhere and everyone pointed out how ridicules it was because you could already do this in the Genesis games.

No, that wasn't from any devs from Dimps. This was from our beloved retard currently shepherding Sonic Team, Takashi Iizuka. (He was the Project Lead for 4 Episode 1, by the way)

Though with these finds, modders couldd probably make a conversion mod that turns ethier Sonic 4 episode into Rush or Rush Adventure with probable ease.

IDW Sonic comic #78 has been released, with it's fanart section featuring art of a blackwashed pooner sonic with what seems to be top surgery scars. ear piercing and all.
I guess some fan saw that horrible drawing with "tranny Sonic", and had the brilliant idea of reproducing it in a children's book. Normal stuff in the woke left, and to be fair, the cosplaying stuff you could see in this comic from time to time was terrifying as well.
You know things have gotten bad when in comparison the worst of Archie Sonic doesn't get that bad.
 
I suppose that one guy who was touting his intersectional feminism or gender studies degree in an interview of IDW Sonic's editorial team is really flexing it with this issue.

I hate everything about it. It looks like he's flinging little turds at people.
