I think that might actually be the first time Iizuka talked about his work on Sonic 2 on the record unless I'm totally off base.
Yeah, that press kit has been floating around privately for quite a while; there's three I can think of that are semi-public (E3 2002, DC DE...
It looks like there was a compilation of Sonic PC games for the Chinese market sometime between 2001 and 2003; I can only translate the title as...
I mean, basically this. The "source" is one speculative Tweet. Is it possible Sega will be acquired? Yes. Have we been discussing that possibility...
This. I'm not as confident that builds exist for some of the items being talked about here, but I'm very much willing to bet there are random...
1. Turns out the image paths are pretty straightforward: https://segatest.sega.com/img/qa/trivia_2-03.png, etc. so they should be retrievable. 2....
I'm surprised no one's mentioned what seems to be the obvious thing that's happened: they likely only wanted one VA contract (which we know...
I agree with this; it's really not a leap to say something along the lines of "Edit Mode is an internal term used by Sega and/or Sonic Team for...
