    I mean we know it's going to be out soon, just not sure when. But overall yes I agree with you (actually I'd say the slightly in the know people are more annoying.)

    The next audtion
    It's not even that. It's the fact that this was originally supposed to be out sometime last week before the delay. Then Tax himself has said it's coming pretty soon, so the logical conclusion is that it'll just be a couple more weeks or so.

    I, personally, can curb my hunger for the game just by pulling out my Genesis or my Wii and playing Sonic 2. Of course, most of you want this more than I do, and to that I can't help much; all I can say is be patient. Play some ROM hacks! My life motto (which mostly applies for getting through class): do something to get your eyes off the clock.

  5. I voted for Sonic, since it has to atleast beat Fifa 14 of all things.

    If we lose to Bejeweled fuckin Blitz... I'll be pissed. That game's been around for a long while now... a few years. Maybe not as an app, but for a long time on Facebook. And consider whether or not people would pay for it...

    Besides... plenty of games pulled off that gameplay better than Blitz. Bear in mind I'm speaking as an owner and fan of both apps... but Sonic 1 deserves the nod. (maybe I'm just heavily biased)

    Tied with Final Fantasy V at the moment, for 12%. Hate to say it but I think Bejeweled has it in the bag.

    Only 1% for Raiden Legacy - that makes me cry.

    Still voted for Sonic though.

    Sonic is up to 14%, and tied for second.... but Bejeweled is still massively in front in the low 30s.

    Surprised no one's dumped this on Sega's forums and sent them into a frothing rampage.

    Unless someone has.

    So when they said this is being delayed, is this seriously a "til further notice" situation? No sign we'll even get it this year? That seems very annoying.

    This whole thing is getting kind of annoying. Like, a concrete date would be lovely. I have this "whenever we feel like it" thing that they do for mobile releases. It's one thing for a fan project or a hack but it rubs me the wrong way in this case.

    The delay was never officially announced. When I speculated a few days before the end of November that there was no chance it was coming out in November, Taxman replied mentioning that the date got shuffled but nothing more than that since he isn't allowed to talk about it. That wasn't anything we couldn't have figured out on our own.

    I think a member of the gaming press needs to reach out and request official comment on why they missed the date announced in the press release back in October. That's the only way we're going to get any new details since it's up to Sega's PR department to announce that kind of thing.

    Not where I want to be.
    Sonic (?): Coming summer of 2055...?
    As long as you're aware that that Taxman and Stealth aren't to blame.

    Of course. They've probably been done for a while now. Now it's just some nonsense on Sega, Apple, or Google's side of the equation

    Right, I don't blame Tax and Stealth at all. Rather, I blame the utterly weird system we have for verification and digital releases right now, with the ball mostly being in Sega/Apple/Android/whoever's court, compared to the more traditional release system. I would much rather have a set date to anticipate than be forced to check this thread daily for a hint of an app update, which I have pretty much been doing for 3 months now. It's annoying.

    Has anyone notified the SEGA forums yet?

    And last I saw it was at 14%, what happened?
