    A sad but not entirely unexpected end. I still think the campaign had good potential, but people did put some pretty decent effort into it and I trust Stealth enough to at least believe he stopped giving his active support for a reason.

    And without that, I'm not sure if we ever really do have a chance.

    Shame too. Yet another reason why I just can't financially support this franchise right now. Lost Worlds was a disappointment, but Boom has downright pushed me away altogether. Maybe the 25th anniversary title will bring back excitement like Generations did? But even then, what can they do? Generations 2?

    The fact that the titles were regulated to mobile ones will also leave me sore for awhile. I'm glad we got them at all, but I was hoping to see them released elsewhere.

    Excuse me while I hurl. I didn't think the Adventure style could get worse.

  3. In Topic: Never before seen build of Sonic X-treme Leaked!

    I love every bit of work that's been done on these protos so far. The fact that we have them is downright incredible...

    But I'd love to play those latter PC versions where we have videos that show proper level design a heck of a lot more. The ones they refuse to release (within their rights of course).

    You know, something that's not barely functional as an actual game.

    Still, don't misunderstand. These protos are really interesting and I'll take every one released that we can get, but I think the so-so response from the general public mostly stems from the fact that the protos simply aren't very functional, no matter how technically impressive their recovery/porting is. It kills a lot of X-treme hype to see how rough the game truly was throughout these stages of development. Your average player would be left wondering if the game was 'ever' any good at all.

    By all means, keep making them though, please. You're doing a true service to us all!

    Wow. About the only way we could get a clearer look is by traveling back to 1990 and playing the damn thing.

    It's so sad, but I really want this demo to turn up someday. I have to wonder. Was it just an auto-scroller like that S2 gg proto we found?
