    With copyrights being 75 years + life of creater after the 1970s, why would they bother? The copyright on Sonic is already good for 100+ years!
     
  2. Sorry. I'm a complete irrational radical when it comes to Sonic.

    But hey, I'm still in :)

    Of course I am in! Even though I am pretty new to the community (first real appearance being on August 19, 2004), I have actually been watching the community since Late 2001 :P It doesn't matter of your experience though, it's your determination to get it right.

    HEY HEY LETS GO!

    Some of you still protect Sega. You protect companies that don't make products to you anymore. They are simply just making money out of you, nothing more.

    And wow, a few people really want to do this even though I haven't given out any information. Thank you Sonic Hachelle-Bee, .hack//zero, Kles, Trigahd, ComPro, lostgame, and Fiz.

    Some people are not very clear though as if this is going to work. I only thanked the people that have the power in their speach and the knowledge. They simply can do this no matter what comes between them.

    Don't forget about this thread. In 2-3 months I will come back and get you, one by one. The summer will be something special.

    Here
    Many Many Programming/hacking tools...
    I'm with you all the way, LOst.
     
  6. Am I supposed to assume that since I'm not on this list on names, you're including me on the group of people who protect SEGA when they just don't care about us anymore?
     
  7. Although I think you're being a little melodramatic (no offense) I agree whole-heartedly with your main point and idea. So count me in for... whatever this is. I have no hacking/programming skills whatsoever, and I probably never will. But I'm sure I could find something to help with.

    I am in the same situation as Lemming 1545, and whilst I would like to help, is there anything I can really do?

    Whatever catches my fancy
    You think I'm defending Sega? Just look at my signature! Sega is evil! :P

    Seriously, I don't know what their problem is. Naka has been known to be a xenophobic asshole, and the fact that we're not Japanese may have something to do with it. But probably not. Maybe something to do with copyright and the Sonic Mega Collection - giving out prototype carts would essentially release any copyright they had on the game, and that's not good for their bottom line.

    LOst, you're trying to make Sega out to be a menace to gaming society just because they won't give us any prototype carts. Last I checked, most game companies don't officially release prototypes of their games.

    Anyway, I'm not going to say I'm "with" or "against" anyone until I see how this pans out. Yes, I sound like a bit of an opportunist, but I'm not going to go all "OMG TEH FUTURE IS NOW FOR SONIC!!1!" I just want to see if this is going to get somewhere, that's all.

    I think that's not the problem here. Sure, Sega don't want to release any prototype carts, the problem is that they seem to not pay attention to Sonic fans anymore (the ones buying their games). It seems Sega is losing a bit its interest for Sonic, just like Nintendo is losing its interest for Mario, looking for Zelda instead. Sega just don't work as good as they used to in the past, because:
    • They may be out of ideas to make new good Sonic games.
    • They may make Sonic for little kids, not for 12+ years-old people.
    • They might be out of funds.
    • They aren't looking for fans requests anymore, giving them very good ideas sometimes.
    • They may be rather pessimistic for their future, they lost their love and passion for Sonic, they can't make good things without passion.
    That's not our case:
    • We have plenty ideas and a lot of creativity here.
    • We are making Sonic for hardcore fans.
    • We do not need money (or very few).
    • We are listening to the others, taking ideas here and there.
    • We are very optimistic for our future, we are in love for Sonic and thanks to that, we can make wonderful things.

    I would like to note, the Sega CEO was extremely friendly, compared to other CEOs I have talked with.

    Uh..no. If you mean by 3D games then yes. They're more interested in making new Zelda titles then Mario titles.

    Sonic Team is responsible for the deveolpment of most Sonic Games. From what I've heard, the team composed of only 15 members when it first started. Now it's bubbled up to over 100 in both USA nad Japan. My guess is that the new staff isn't interested in catering to the old fans. They're more interested in catering to new fans who haven't reached puberty yet.

    I'm willing to help in this endeavor. Saying how much the "new" Sonic sucks isn't gonna get us anywhere. Let's show Sonic Team how creative the old fans really are.

    The fact that there weren't any old fans at the time aside, isn't this what Sega tried to do with the original Sonic games? We probably didn't notice this because when they did it, I don't think their characters came out to be so annoying. :P

    Actually, I think there's some sort of a poll going around that lets you give them a bit of feedback or something. I didn't look into it too much, but...yeah. Also, you made some pretty good points in your post, SH-B, although I have something to say about the last one on the second list: just because we love Sonic doesn't necessarily mean that we'll be able to put together a quality product. Of course, a certain amount of optimism and love does help.

    the_spindash, you simply weren't optimistic enough for this to be included in the list.

    Icy Guy, Wyvernlord II, and some others. You are not willing to fight Sega in the way we others in the thread want. I have no idea for how long you have been here but you seem to see things like normal. You are simply too weak to be in my project. Hope you won't change your mind later.

    You can't be weak and run when you are in my project. You have to be stronger. If Sega come after us, the last thing I need is people that tries to help Sega from inside of my project.

    Some of you seems to believe that Sonic Heroes, Sonic X, and Sonic Advance 3 are worth fighting for. Hell no!

    I for one am in on all this. Hell, Sonic is the only reason I am the way I am today. My love for Sonic brought me into this community, and has made me a better person. We cannot let Sega ruin the Sonic we know and love!

    Count me in LOst. After all Sonic has done for me, I can at least pay him back somehow by saving him from Sonic Team.

    Oh, and Sonic Advance 3 was alright, but that was prolly because I love Chaotix. Meh. :P

    Im soo in that I don't even know where I'll land. You need advertisments/graphics/animation, im your guy.

    Sega is milking money from their old games. Just recently the "Sonic Mega Collection Plus" came out.

    Honestly, think about it. Sega is really starting to suck with their games and just isn't any good anymore. Some of you trying to protect Sega might be thinking about the old, cool Sega. This is the new Sega.

    Tweaker and vangar. You should be proud of yourselves!

    I only disagree with the Sonic Advance 3 being great statement.

    What have you got in mind, LOst? What could we do to make Sega notice us?
