Shard the Gentleman

Hey everyone! Are you as hyped for Sonic Mania as I am? Great! But waiting for the game to come out can be tedious- especially if you're waiting on the PC version. How does one wait for the game without going mad? Here's Shard's quick guide to preparing yourself for Sonic Mania! Tier One - Play through the classics! What's the best way to play? SONIC 1 + 2 Sonic Classic Heroes! In this version, Sonic 1 and 2 have been neatly combined into one smooth game- you can play from one right to the other without having to switch games! What's more? This version of the game has items and other features from Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and Knuckles, including Tails' and Knuckles' super and hyper forms! But wait, there's more! You can switch between the three title characters at will, similar to Sonic Heroes! You can also play as Team Chaotix! SONIC CD The best way to play this classic game- well, there are two ways. The PC version on Steam developed by Christian Whitehead, or the mobile port of it! They play exactly the same as the original, except with addition corrections, and the ability to play as Tails! SONIC 3/ SONIC & KNUCKLES Similar to Sonic Classic Heroes, this one is also a combination of 2 games. What's the difference between this and Sonic 3 and Knuckles? This version is completely customizable- so you can choose to play with S3 music or S&K music- in addition, lots of glitch fixes and additional features- such as reflecting projectiles with the Insta-Shield, and more! TIER 2 Already played through the games enough? Well, here's the next step! Watch the Sonic OVA! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bIawOdFNu4 While somewhat ignored in the community, this movie is still a gem that all Classic fans should watch! TIER 3 Read Sonic Mega Drive and Sonic Mega Drive Next Level! Sonic: Mega Drive was illustrated by Tyson Hesse- the very same person to animate the Sonic Mania opening, and he is also known for a short Sonic Web Comic. These stories follow your Classic buddies- Sonic, Tails, Amy, and Knuckles, going against Doctor Eggman, Metal Sonic, and more! TIER 4 Watch fan products! This can range from Sonic Shorts by Sonic Paradox, Sonic Zombies by Balenaproductions, the Sonic Prologue short film- or anything you can think of! Hopefully these things will help you keep yourself occupied until Sonic Mania's release!

Loved it! Super hyped for Mania- hopefully Tyson Hesse will work more with SEGA in the future~~ Tyson Hesse is also the guy who drew the "Hedgehog the Sonic" video- and some of Sonic Mania's T-shirts!

I've never been to a bar or anything since I've only just reached drinking age, and I can't drink because I'm currently on medicine, but when I could, I only had hard stuff. My favorite that I've had so far is Coconut Malibu- The hardest I've had was I think 101 Proof? I don't like beer- can't stand it. So usually if I'm drinking, it's too actually get drunk- which I only plan to do maybe once every two months- Don't want to kill myself, and don't want to start an addiction.

Hail Hydra.

Girl can I get yo digits? Because I think you're a criminal and need to do a finger scan.

Angel Island from Sonic 3k

Back in 2012, one of their writeres decided he wanted to go solo and wanted to use his characters from the comics, and ended up suing Archie and SEGA so he can use them. After that, Sega wasn't allowed to use those characters anymore, so they killed most of them off, and soft rebooted the universe.

I don't know if this counts, but Hocus Pocus. It started as a Disney Channel movie but Disney liked it enough to make it an actual Disney movie.

It's up! http://kh13.com/forum/topic/108998-animorphs-revisted/

My name is Elfangor-Sirinial-Shamtul, and I am dead. What you see here is what an old friend has granted me- the last of my thoughts projected into a physical form. If my friend is right, then whoever can see this- that person is someone that he foresaw making a difference. I do not know how much of an impact anyone on this planet could have on this war, but I put my trust in the him, and also in you. ---------- "Xander...?" James brushed his own brown hair around a bit, each strand hopelessly tangled around another. He turned his head towards the boy, taller than himself. James had plenty of respect for Xander- his intelligence was something James was a bit jealous of, but not jealous enough to avoid him. He liked to think Xander was his friend, but wasn't quite sure what Xander himself thought. "Sorry I spent so long in there. I got a bit carried away." Held horizontally, James carried a bag of what, to anyone who saw it, would look like random scribbles. In truth, it was a stack of comics. Having just returned from the mall, James refused to hold the bag by the handles- the last thing he wanted to do was bend the comics he had just bought. The road they were traversing, lit only by a handful of streetlights and the occasional passing car, was almost always busy during the day. It was a familiar sight to anyone who lived here- but to one who was not local, it was somewhat spooky. The amusement park, looking as if it should be lit and aglow, stood dark and unnerving. There had been a handful of deaths here mere months ago, leading to the closure of the park. Sometimes kids would sneak in, vandalizing the leftover rides or doing other illegal activities. James liked to avoid it- he was always a bit sensitive about where people died. Souls should be allowed to rest, and disturbing their death site seemed to be disrespectful. He wasn't the only one to have this thought- which is why the site hadn't been demolished yet. It stood as a solemn reminder of those who had passed. "Did you get anything good?" James spoke up, attempting to take his mind off of the events that took place then.

I haven't read the series since I was in 4th grade, so there's a ton I don't remember lol. I'm at the first of the David trilogy.

An original please! I wouldn't be as excited for a retelling of a game I've already played.

This video has some strong language. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpUPnJSW2fI 'You unlock a Bronze Token if you get ejected from the stage prematurely, you unlock a Silver Token if you get all the Blue Spheres but not all rings, and you unlock a Gold Token if you get all rings and Blue Spheres." What do you all think? I think some of the unlockables would be 16-bit Soundtrack Amy as a playable character Concept Art

You can legally reread the books for free on this Animorphs forum, Applegate gave permission haha. I didn't reread ALL of them yet, I'm about 20 books in, and they unfortunately don't have the Megamorph series either- but that doesn't seem to be too important. And what I got wrong: Animorphs CAN morph into their own species- Cassie morphed Rachel a few times, and they acquired a few other humans as well. Yeerks can cause much pain upon entering the brain if they choose not to excrete their pain numbing solution from their bodies, so it would be pretty hard to not notice them. They're also a lot bigger than I thought.
