Topics I've Started

  1. An excellent Dreamcast tribute someone's made

    24 March 2013 - 01:20 PM

    I wasn't sure whether to just throw this in with the 'general discussion' videos or not, but I thought I'd post it on here instead. Feel free to move it if no-one cares (or whatever).

  2. Adding lyrics to Sonic tunes

    03 November 2012 - 06:20 PM

    I originally had this idea ages ago when I listened to that Sonic 2 ending a cappella here:


    And now I've just 'ran' into other tunes that have lyrics done for them. eg. this one (*shivers*)


    So I thought it could be interesting what people come up with - this I guess would be different to the "mash-up" thread, as it's using a different focus to that one.

    Have fun [I wouldn't know how you make them myself ^^;]! :)
  3. Chaos Emeralds: a 'brilliant diamond'-cut?

    25 October 2012 - 10:20 AM

    This has probably been talked about ages ago, but I don't recall the conversation about it.

    Putting the word 'diamond' into Google Images brings up plenty of images like this, this, this and this

    Whereas 'emerald' (although of course the green emerald is the colour that it's known for, it doesn't explain the different colours of all the Chaos Emeralds - only the Master Emerald) comes up with very different results: They are more rectangular in shape, and only a few on there are actually 'diamond-shaped'.

    So I suppose "Chaos Diamonds' don't really have the same ring to is as 'Emeralds' do.

    Any other thoughts on this?
  4. Things in Sonic that don't really make sense

    12 May 2012 - 04:25 PM

    I wasn't sure how to word the title of this, as pretty much everything doesn't really make sense! I guess it's kind've the things we've take for granted that we see all the time, which we may not really think about scientifically (obviously because this IS a fictional game in a fictional world, but it's fun to compare it with reality sometimes).

    It'd be interesting if someone created a topic showing things that does actually make sense as well! I.e. could *anything* in Sonic be scientifically plausable (ignoring the whole 'Sonic on Earth' side of it)?

    I've got a large Sonic Generations poster on my wall, and in the background of the poster is that rocky 'mountain' with a waterfall coming down from it. When I see it, I keep thinking to myself "how would that actually work in reality?" This is the picture that got me to make this thread:

    I could assume that it's some sort of geyser, but even then the rock formation wouldn't really explain it either. Whatever it is, it certainly can't be a lake up there anyway!

    If anyone wants to be facetious, the subtitle explains it already.
  5. Anyone heard of a magazine called SegaJack? (JAP)

    29 February 2012 - 05:26 PM

    I was looking around Google for Sonic-related things and I stumbled across this Japanese site that's selling a magazine called 'SegaJack' (this issue is from 1995), to which the front cover depicts Sonic relaxing and is about to have an ice cream. I tried looking for it on Sonic & Sega Retro, but couldn't find anything.

    Google Translate didn't really help much, but here's the link anyway:

    Anyone seen this before (and anyone know what it says on the front cover, not that it really matters I guess)?
