Social Swamp's Social Thread 3 - And now, the end is near, and so I face the final curtain...

I guess they're starting to get popular now. That's cool. I feel like I started something xD (even though it was still done way before me lol.)

Also, Happy Birthday @Fumi-Chan! Kinda funny how our Birthday's are only one day apart lol.

I prefer to think that Joker simply tricked him with a acid and than escape in the confusion. Make more sense.

Found that Sonic leak:
http://boards.4chan.org/v/thread/337725671/sonic-25th-anniversary-leaks

Unsurprisingly, it's calling itself Sonic Adventure 3. The "leaked" stuff is being uploaded here.

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJWoRMEiOq5K4C-V3bC863A

Looks pretty fake to me based on this alone:

I know the video this screen is from is an "Alpha" footage for an intro but...SPAR?

Spar is an Irish supermarket/petrol station chain. Go there a lot myself, chicken fillet rolls are great. Why in the hell would that be used as a texture for something in a Sonic game, even if it's alpha?

I laughed at this bit on the level list, though, and a comment someone made after:

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

The Hunter Games simulator is neat. But also requires a lot of work to use. D:

Bleh.

 

[Opossum]

The next exciting issue has come out! What sorts of antics will our heroes and villains get into today?

Spoiler: A bonus DOUBLE-SIZED issue!

Alfred finally gets Batman his supplies, lots of innocent bystanders today, Krypto apparently makes an appearance, Aquaman's a Fish-Kabob, and Joker is both out of character AND #TeamCap.

 

[_Sheik]

This was posted earlier. Good stuff, as usual.

I'm watching Matt Patt play "Chica's Magic Rainbow"

Yeah, I'm gonna call fake.

Another rumor also came up. I don't have the link to the 4Chan page, there was another Sonic rumor from someone claiming to be Wentos the Traveling Salesman, someone who leaked Sonic games in the past.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

According to this and some other tweets, the game is called "Sonic v Dr.Eggman."
I'm also calling fake on this.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Sonic v Dr Eggman

The epic battle we've always wanted to see...

We've waited so long

Yeah I just found that, it was actually the one I was looking for because Donnie from TSSZ tweeted about it.

Calling fake, but the fact they mentioned that "the 25th Anniversary game will celebrate Eggman as much as Sonic" is actually something I want to see now that I think about it. Especially fitting considering the still somewhat recent passing of Chikao Ohtsuka (then again, that'd make it even more bittersweet).

I'd like to see that as well.

Now that I think about it, I would love to see Dr.Eggman get his own spin-off game.

Inb4 someone posts Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine

Death! Romance! In-Character moments! OUT of character moments!

Spoiler: See more inside!

Spidey sparing a life. Classic Spidey!
"Hey Black Widow...wanna know my...secret identity?"
And Joker's finally in character! He would use his Stockholm-induced lover and previous victim as bargaining chips...and then kill the one who refuses.
Doctor Strange getting taken out by Joker though? A bit less believable. Rest in peace, Doctor Strange.

Getting into bed with someone named Black Widow seems like a deathwish.

I don't think Batman needed much convincing

The ninth installment! Lots of watching, lots of missing attacks!

Spoiler: They basically did nothing the whole time!

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Has anyone seen the new image on Scottgames?

 

[Fenriraga]

So at this point, it's probably safe to assume the 25th anniversary game ISN'T gonna be in 2016. Them droughts man.

Has anyone seen the new image on Scottgames?

Scott, this does NOT count as FNAF not getting any more games.

Sonic v Dr.Eggman?
It better have the subtitle Dawn of Heroes, and have overly bloated cameos form Knuckles, Tails, Amy, Cream, Big, Rouge, Mario, Luigi, Metal Soni, Silver, Blaze, Marine, Batman, Superman, Chaos, Tikal, Spider-man, Captian America, Wolverine, Vector, Charmy, Espio, Shadow and Eggan Nega

Also we can't forget the part where Peach comes in a steals the show...

Did I stretch that joke out to far?

 

[Con0rrrr]

Sonic Adventure 3 would make me cry tears of joy

 

[Opossum]

The celebratory tenth issue! Lots of personal character moments for both Marvel and DC's cast.

Spoiler: This wasn't even planned!

Green Lantern forgot to eat. Superman forgot how his heat vision worked. What could Nightwing be doing? Is this his plan? Spider-Man...loses his Spider-Sense?!?

Thor and Hulk get ready for Ragnarok, Cap and Widow relive The Winter Soldier, while the Bats get Killing Joke flashbacks.

But...it's followed up with...another DOUBLE-ISSUE!

Spoiler: HALF THE DEALS, TWICE THE PRICE!

Alfred hits his mark again! Lots of abandoned bases...what could they mean?!
Lots of sparring and sparing.
And Superman...forgets how to fly?!

 

[ChikoLad]

IMO Sonic Adventure 3 is just a name to me at this point.

Sonic Adventure 2 was quite the departure from it's predecessor as it was. Had the same base concept, but got rid of a lot of what made Adventure good IMO.

Then Sonic '06 was a spiritual successor to the original Sonic Adventure, but it was a disaster.

Then Sonic Unleashed was originally called Sonic Adventure 3 internally, but they changed it because they felt it was pointless to call it that when it's only Sonic as the playable character.

Call it Sonic Adventure 3 if it actually is a real attempt at a successor to that formula, but simply going back to that base formula won't guarantee a good game to me. I don't like Sonic Adventure 2, and Sonic '06 was a disaster.

 

[RodNutTakin]

Might honestly let you guys take another spin at Fury Road considering the resurgence in Hunger Games Simulator. Anyway, I'm planning to go on vacation for my birthday to the beach! What are you guys' summer plans?

Also SiIvagunner should definitely give those supposed Sonic Adventure 3 leaked songs his magic High Quality Touch.

Spoiler: High Quality Fanrips

For those who care, I am close to finishing my most ambitious High Quality Fanrip yet. The actual song is done, and I could just call it a day and upload it now, but I still want to make sure the tracks are balanced enough volume-wise so that the rip is as high quality as possible. I also ripped the 2012 version of Pumpkin Hill. Both videos should be uploaded by tomorrow.

Here's what the ambitious Fanrip is: It's an unused, full and uncut version of Waluigi Pinball from Mario Sports Mix, originally split in multiple files (The original filenames tipped me off that they were related to each other.) I had previously only ripped the used, shorter version, but now you have the chance of listening to the whole thing!

 

[Opossum]

OKAY SO SOMETHING WENT WRONG WITH THIS ONE.

Our big Arena Event issue...and it messes up. I thought the Arena Survival description was describing the event. Apparently not. The...flavor text is a sign that character survived. Consider it a collector's misprint. I edited in a SURVIVES to those who survived.

Spoiler: The Editors are gonna KILL me!

And just like that, Thanos is apprehended by The Living Tribunal for his crimes against the multiverse...but the show must go on. He took out Superman in the only fitting way, but he also took out Batman, Batgirl, The Flash, and Ant-Man.

Will Nightwing avenge the Bat Family and take down Joker? How will the Avengers respond to Ant-Man's death? How does Widow feel about her role as a pawn? Find out next time!

Maybe

 

[JamesDNaux]

I don't want a Sonic Adventure 3 so much as I just want the Chao Garden back.

I'd really just rather them use Classic Sonic in more Generations styled 2D games than another 3D game anyway.

 

[Opossum]

The denouement of last time's incredibly depressing Thanos event, which cost the lives of many of our heroes, we go into a depressing night.

Spoiler: BUT WHO DIES THOUGH?

Black Widow's not having any of Harley's ****. Mistah J's not gonna be happy...so she thinks. Truth is? Joker couldn't care less.

But if Thor's fire failed to start...what fire did Joker see?!?

But then suddenly...ANOTHER DOUBLE-ISSUE!

Spoiler: This time...it's the FEAST!

No one goes to the Feast except Joker...who then met his (un?)timely death. Who summoned Deathstroke? Was this planned by our heroes?
The next phase...

Tragedy is afoot, though. It appears Alfred was never informed of Master Wayne's death at the hands of Thanos. Either that, or he's just deep in denial.

Also finally someone replied.

 

[Kingslime304]

It's quite surprising that Urien is probably the only Semi Clone that appears in a Major Game first before the original (For obvious reasons).

 

[Opossum]

The next few days were rather quiet, so I put them all together! It reads like one complete story arc...but eventually, one contestant grows tired of the stalemate!

Spoiler: The Death of a Fan Favorite or Two!

Yes, that's right. Not only does Thor clearly get drunk and fall out of a tree to his death, but after a lot of group bonding, we see the Death of Captain America! Immediately, his fellow Avengers Black Widow and Hulk plot against the DC death-dealer. But what will come of their plot? But beware...next time, an old foe returns...

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I'm still disappointed the S'more Oreos aren't called S'moreos

And there we are folks! The winner, by means of TOTAL DEUS EX MACHINA, is...

THE HULK! Fitting that he won on a site dedicated to Smash.

If SEGA were to ever do a Sonic 5, I just hope they don't rely on the classic series too much. Sonic 4 (both episodes) left me with a bit of disappointment when they felt more like a "reimagining" of the first two games rather than their own thing.

They were too gimmicky, namely the overreliance on the Homing Attack. What they need to do is either find their own thing, or actually properly reuse the Classic engine. Not the Advance/Rush engines. They're not bad, but don't work as well as the ones in 1/2/3/Knuckles. Those were topnotch engines. I get they lose the original engines' coding, but when people can make faithful ports themselves, and Sega can't do so nearly as well, something is wrong. It's your own damn engine. Just reuse it already, properly. :/
