No rap numbers about Knuckles and how he doesn't chuckle


Screw you, Knuckle's Rap songs were some of the best in SA:2.

And U.N.K.N.O.W.N From M.E is one of the best songs in the whole series <---FACT

While it would be cool to play this on DS, the PSP has some good games too! I will get this seeing as I played every US released Imageepoch game (including Arc Rise Fantasia) I'll love this!

On SD GUNDAM CAPSULE FIGHTER : More Gundam is good! I would kill to play SD Gundam G Generation World!

KIRBY'S RETURN TO DREAM LAND : It's about time this came out!

OTOMEDIUS EXCELLENT : Gradius + Mine Yoshizaki art = Awesome-ness! Just got a 360 and im already sick of GTA IV!

I'd like to also mention that Sonic Generations will sell for $49.99, $29.99 on the PC. It's a bit amusing that there've been so many people jumping to correct the description for this game or objections to the remarks.

Also, regarding "1-multiplayer," this is based on the description GameStop and Amazon have given. No one really knows where the multiplayer is located though, at least not the general public. So I'm not entirely sure if it's correct or not. Chances are if it's in the game at all, it's a tiny mini-game, a series of races like in Sonic 2 or Sonic Rush Adventure, or the Casno Night pinball.

Seth in Street Fighter 4 was named after Seth Killian? I thought he was named after Set, the Egyptian god.

Also, is knowledge of the opponent's gems withheld until you use them? Because if so, that sounds pretty cool. It'd be a little bit like Pokémon battling in that regard, since Pokémon battling is mostly about what each player hides from the other--a good Pokémon battler only plays his cards when necessary.

It just doesn't get better than this:

In addition, it got an 8.5 out of 10 from IGN, which has become somewhat infamous as of late for being harsh on Sonic when on a non-Nintendo system. It also got an Editors' Choice Award, which I believe is the first time it's happened for Sonic since Sonic Adventure.

So that's how many pre-orders it got? I know it got more orders than any other Sonic game to date, but I couldn't find the numbers. It still doesn't touch the numbers Pokémon or Call of Duty get, but hey, Sonic was never a pre-order series. It sells into the millions without needing large pre-order numbers because it gets its sales legs during and long after release.
