Reviews

4.8 out of 5 stars from 63 ratings
  • Funny stuff

    The hosts are knowledgeable but not full of themselves, and sometimes the random tangents completely unrelated to Sonic are the best parts.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Joypolis & Japan w/ BARRY THE NOMAD
Q: Can you tell us or remind us, why were you going to Japan in the first place? And does it relate at all to Sonic the Hedgehog?
Barry shares that he went to Japan for Star Wars Celebration, combined with a birthday gift from his dad, and mentions the strong presence of Sonic-related merchandise and culture there.
Season 3 Finale: Superman, NiGHTS, and Skittles
Q: Were there any video game urban legends, Sonic or otherwise, that you believed for longer than you rationally should have?
Several legends circulated about secrets in Sonic games, particularly involving characters like Ashura or potential unlockable stages in Sonic 3.
So I Married a Hedgehog w/ MICHAEL STEARNS
Q: Did you have any pop culture things in your wedding?
We had a pirate wedding, and then we all got in line for the dinosaur exhibit, which was great.
So I Married a Hedgehog w/ MICHAEL STEARNS
Q: What's the most recent Sonic thing that you have liked or engaged with the most, that's had the most impact on you?
I got on with Sonic 1 on the Genesis in 1991, and yeah, it changed my life.
Is Sonic Frontiers better than DK Bananza? w/ SAM LOGAN
Q: What do you think about the comparisons between Sonic Frontiers and DK Bananza?
The games are similar in that both feel like they built a sandbox first, then figured out what to do in it after, leading to chaotic gameplay. However, many elements of gameplay in DK Bananza feel more action-oriented, drawing parallels with action games like Zelda rather than pure platformers like Sonic.
