Hi !

An amateur team is developping a Sonic Game for the dreamcast. It's called Sonic Space Racer. It(s still in early stages, but check the site http://www.dreamcast.sp.st

Go to that link, click on the 'Photos' link in the menu, then choose 'epitanime 2003.' Your guaranteed to see some pretty funny, yet disturbing things...

Speaking of sonic games, you know how pso was made in part by the sonic team, well i was playing sonic2 and I found a cube.
The cube was the same thing as when you drop a monomate in pso.
Really surprised me, pretty cool eh?

Wow, there was a guy there dressed as Sailor Moon. I don't normally judge people... But.. Seriously.. WTF.

Cosplay is fine, but crossgender is weird to me.

Now, someone go buy me Vash's trenchcoat.

yeah it's it's a racing game in space, but with a shooter gameplay in addtion to the racing.
About the popups, sorry for not paying a pro hosting (WTF). Instead of just talking shit just gimme a popup free one and everyone will be happy.
And for the people who don't know how to use a menu, there's a SonicSR section especially for the game.

What kind of a Sonic game is it if it has absolutely nothing to do with Sonic. I think its ridiculous to call it a Sonic game when (from the description you've given) it seems to have absolutely nothing at all to do with Sonic except the look of the character itself. The graphics (although I am not sure I would even dare to call them "Screenshots", because only one of them is actually computerized) are fairly nice looking, but that doesn't change the fact that the game does not follow the idea of any Sonic game ever made. IMO, all Sonic games have been characteristically "Sonic". You could never put another character in the Sonic games, and try to fool someone into thinking it was made for anyone but Sonic and friends. This game, however, sounds like it has absolutely nothing at all to do with any Sonic storyline ever created. Sonic in a shooter game? That's just not right. If Sonic can't spin around and kill things with his own two hands (or four feet, or whatever), it's just not Sonic.
At least, that's what I think, but then again, I don't know anything.

yeah and unless mario can jump on peoples heads with his own two feet and fire fireballs out of his own two hands its just not a mario game is it?, O wait then we wouldn't have mario kart would we

, yes maybe its not a "Real" mario game, but it still does not make it fun.

If there just giving it away the copyright issues shouldn't be that big a deal. It when you go to sell copyrighted material you get in trouble.

give the guy a break! If he's on the level then we've got ourselves a new homebrew. He tries to inform us of a project and you shoot him down.

Welcome to DC Emu, durk. Best wishes for your project.
