GAMER LOUNGE 20XX (NO CASUALS!!)

[Vipershark]

Okay, what the FUCK is with all this arguing over this bullshit? What's with all the ganging up on Gwen? Seriously, are you all so fucking delusional?

The point that I was getting the vibe for (forgive me if I'm wrong, I'm tired because I work for a living) is that the game has a lot of similarities to Sonic while providing different characters, story, gameplay tweaks, etc. That's fine! The game looks FUN to play too, at least to me.

But then there's all these posts about how there is NO similarity to Sonic or Sega whatsoever, how Sega can't sue, blah blah blah.


Are you serious? In the first thirty seconds of the trailer the character was running through loops, spinning into a ball, the scenery looks like oldschool Sonic fare with enhanced graphics, the opening scene looked like Ristar, a Sega IP that was supposed to (and failed) to succeed Sonic.

So what's the deal here? Seriously, explain this to me, WHAT IS THE PROBLEM? If you want to discuss this more I feel like you should just branch this off into an alternate Freedom Planet thread, because this is just unacceptable to me.

Wowee man, there's no need for tempers to get that high over this.

I've been watching this thread for the past couple of hours to ensure that nothing flies off the handle and so far you guys have kept away from outright name calling and insults and stuff so I've let the debate keep going.
Honestly I'm not sure why the discussion is even happening since it's obvious that it's heavily inspired by Sonic (and many other games!!!) so why is there even questioning over it?

In other words,
