Just watched it, he seems to have basically paraphrased the Gametap Retrospective.

I didn't know there was a Sonic Retrospective... is it new? Maybe I forgot I watched it... they take forever to make new ones.

EDIT: I read "Gametap" and thought "Game Trailers." GT hasn't done a Sonic Retrospective yet, but the ones they have done are all very interesting and entertaining. I suggest everyone here check them out it you haven't already. Might I suggest starting with the Zelda Retrospective?

Great video, but I was a little miffed at the ending. That remix of Chemical Plant was done by myself and Malice X in the mid 2000's, and we weren't asked permission.


Just out of curiosity, did you ask Sega / Masato Nakamura for permission to remix it in the first place?

He's using it to illustrate the music in the game. It's fair use IMO considering.

Dude has a point, it has to be said.


Yup, too bad I was joking about being upset. :P It's absolutely preposterous to be upset over something like that. I didn't even write the song as you said yourself. Come on , guys. :P "Permission" over a midi on VGmusic. I'll like.. put a j/k next time though, I haven't posted here in years...


Type doesn't very well carry tone over the 'net though. Sorry about the confusion. ^^

That's fine =P

Iceknight - actually, he was considered by some as a potential Presidential candidate as early as 1988: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Clinton#...imaries_of_1988 , and gave a nationally-televised address in the same year. He'd be well-enough known by 1991.

Hmm, I certainly wasn't aware of that, thanks for pointing it out.

after sonic launched, see how many mascots followed that popped out of a circle and had their fingers up as either #1 or peace sign or thumbs up...including but not limited to ghostbusters1-2, chuck e. cheese, crash, bubsy, bug!, conker, awesome possum, zero, aero,

ghostbusters1-2,


Two movies that debuted years before Sonic.

chuck e. cheese


A chain of family themed restaurants founded by Nolan Bushnell, the Atari guy, back in 1977.


went on a tangent there. . but mostly saying early 90s, your character had to wave his hand(s) in the air, and due to his attitude, like they just don't care.

just saying not every mascot has to hold up the ole im #1 sign... and pop out of a ring..ala porky pig and th-th-thats all folks.

thats all folks

That was ALL of the 90s. It wasn't spawned by Sonic The Hedgehog alone, we were all dicks with our radical attitudes. Sonic was a product of this, not a leader.
