    I find it interesting how you all associate "and Friends" with Garfield... surely, Barney, Thomas and FOX also come to mind?

    Fox and Friends isn't a thing outside the USA, Barney I'm not sure most know about beyond what the main character looks like and the bloody song (I didn't even realise the show title had an "& Friends" on the end), and as for Thomas - TIL it had an & Friends on the end, I'd forgotten that given how long it's been since I've seen the show. Garfield on the other hand literally has an announcer saying "Garfield and Friends" out loud as part of the opening sequence, so it'll stick more.

    Fair enough. I guess I just thought "X and Friends" was a pretty common name format.

    I mean, someone already posted the direct connection we have with Garfield already as well. There was no Sonic & Thomas the Tank Engine combo pack that I'm aware of unless Black Squirrel is holding on to some dirt. We don't need anymore holy grails.

    Would it be like this, but in animated form? That'd be ok.

    yeah that logo screams pre-schooler show to me, it's probably just gonna be a series of silly but harmless skits that get posted on the social media accounts. Not really sure why anyone expected this to be a new game lol

    You think I don't have concepts!? I just need bodies to trial it.

    These toddlers could be my ticket.

    Have you considered writing your concepts in the Creative Works topic

    Man, I hope it's something that's actually finally using those designs for something more than a plushie or plastering them with graffiti. I love them so much. We need more.

    But I know it won't be so I don't know why I'm getting my hopes up.

    OR
    This is SEGA's way of finally combating those bootleg-ass Sonic Finger Family videos, by cornering the market themselves
