Pretty good commercial. Wonder if they got Tim & Eric to do the video or just someone with the same sense

oh yeah that is roger craig smith the voice of sonic in the commercial. this is almost in charles martinet territory of silliness.

Itâs so funny how 1:1 this is to my memory of the old commercial but at the same time is so respectful about Mario Kart, Iâm sure mostly bc of legal fears but still
Also Sonic R was open world racing way before Mario, donât shoot yourself in the foot Sega

Damn, that rules. Do you think heâll get the Rush car from Battle & Chase? Or do crossover charas not get custom cars?

I have preordered it on Steam, who else is picking this up at launch?
Itâs funny how a PS2 launch game looks better than a brand new release.

this is pretty neat because i just recently started playing Rockman: Battle & Chase again, and i wondered to myself âwhy donât they make another one of these?â

Tangentially related, but âSpeedballâ Mike Bailey and Kevin Knight wore Sonic and Tails themed gear on tonightâs AEW show

like when Marza did the opening to Unleashed and it was arguably the best part of the game

The driving at Normal speed doesnât feel great but does feel a bit better at sonic and super sonic speeds. There isnât a traditional single player mode of unlocks like racing transformed, you earn tickets to buy parts through race performance. You also unlock gadget modifications through completing races. I donât know how long this will keep people playing as there are really just a few grand prix races and online multiplayer races. Music unlocks seem to happen through earning medals in time trials which may or may not be annoying based on how you feel about doing time trial laps for each and every course. There is a Race Park mode that seems to be a bit more like Team Sonic Racing but I havenât gotten into it yet. I do wish there were more sega themed race tracks but we will see if ongoing DLC fills this gap.
I am having fun but it does seem a bit thin at times for a full prices game plus season pass in 2025.
