Re: Chao Research being worked on

SA1DC probably is the game where compiled information on Chao is most spotty. That said, it seems a bit shortsighted to treat SADX and SA2B Monolithically. I've only played the Gamecube versions and a bit of SADXPC04, but even among what is well known, it is already known that there are significant ...

Re: New Chronology

Okay, I know the 4000 years ago bits are based on Gerald's Journals from Sonic Battle and while I've never played Chronicles, I understand it identifies the Fourth Great Civilization mention in said Journals as the Nocturnus. However, I could've sworn Sonic Adventure stated its past events as being ...

Re: "To catch a shadow"- The Ultimate Life Form conspiracy

^I thought Sega's other franchises were generally considered to have competent Story telling and that it's only Sonic where they tend to fall flat on their face whenever they try for epic tales.

That said, this continues to be a very compelling interpretation.

Re: Least favorite Sonic games?

Of the Sonic games I've played, I'd have to give my top three least favorite slots to Drift, Drift 2, and Labyrinth. Some of them are Nintendo Hard, but the rest of the GG Sonic Catalog are at least enjoyable.

That said, I'm curious as to why Tails' Adventures would get a mention in this thread.

Re: All S Chao with Gold medal breeding question

As well as a 1/4 chance each of shiny monotone, non-shiny monotone, and non-shiny two-tone. The offspring will be hete...

In addition to the 7 A-rank Emblems, I'm also missing the Emblems for Route 101 5, Route 280 4-5, and ...

When recruiting collaborators for a creative project, its considered common courtesy to show off some of what you've already done.

Re: Controversial opinion topic

For what its worth, Sonic 1 is generally considered the weakest of the Genesis Trilogy, and almost no one really cares for S3 and S&K individually. That said, it does seem a bit extreme to bash an entire game over that one level, though I will agree that Chemical Plant's endgame where you have chall...

Re: Normal type chao

The simplest way of getting a normal-type chao is to simply not give it any animals or Chaos Drives at all. If you still want to give your Chao animals and/or drives, you need to keep both the Run<>Power and Swim<>Fly sliders in their neutral positions. This can be accomplished in many ways, but per...
