Also I still have to figure out how to set up our e-mail accounts on the new host.

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 08:19 AM)

As soon as I figure out how to restore it. Sorry, I know I said it'd be done by now, but I didn't expect to have to put up with this DNS crap and other issues that popped up.

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

So when's the black theme coming back??

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

"Should"

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 07:27 AM)

That DNS took longer to propagate properly than I thought it would. *Now* we should be back for good, though.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:48 PM)

Or it might be because Bluehost *finally* got around to that server wipe (one week after we'd asked for it) and that wiped out our DNS settings. I'm not sure which and I don't really care. In any case, we've severed our last ties with Bluehost, so this will not happen again.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:08 PM)

Looks like Bluehost yanked our DNS since our hosting account expired. That's why the site went down a while ago. But as you can see, it's fixed now.

@  Misk : (23 July 2015 - 04:55 PM)

No, they do not.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 04:27 AM)

The goggles do nothing?

@  Misk : (22 July 2015 - 05:50 PM)

My eyes.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 12:24 PM)

Looks like forum uploads might have been broken since last night. That should be fixed now too.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 01:33 AM)

Heh, whoops! Server went down for a few mins when I borked the config. Looks like it's back up now.

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 09:09 PM)

It looked like a napkin

@  ILOVEVHS : (21 July 2015 - 09:04 PM)

Fan-fuckin-tastic.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:25 PM)

As for the beaver picture while the forum was down, I think Tim drew it. On a napkin.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:24 PM)

No kiddin' about that "Finally!", Shadow. I am *so mad* at Bluehost for never responding to our support ticket. I submitted it early Friday morning and they *still* haven't answered it!

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 06:37 PM)

Maybe he did that himself

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:25 PM)

Say, who made the cute picture of Beaver Chief?

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:24 PM)

Finally!

@  RedMenace : (21 July 2015 - 05:02 PM)

Woooo! The site's back up! Three cheers for Kef!

And I also like Coconuts.


He still reminds me of GWB
Only because of Nostalgia Critic. If you watched the show he declares "open season on hedgehogs" not war, and that was only the first episode.

The IGN boards are slamming that video VHS.

 

Typical.


Some say that he knows 2 facts about ducks, and both of them are wrong. And that 61 years ago he accidentally introduced Her Majesty The Queen to a Greek racialist. All we know is, I'm going to the tower now to have my head cut off, and he is called The Stig.

So the characters never shut up even during gameplay? Roger Craig Smith's insufferably obnoxious Sonic is going to be constantly spouting poorly written one-liners?

 

Great. v_v

I appreciate them trying to go for innovation as far as character design goes, and I personally prefer a taller and bulkier Knuckles, but Sonic's face looks like he ran face first into a wall at Mach 1. Also, SEGA's logic "How do we make Sonic cool? Give him a scarf!"

 

Character designs aside, the few clips of gameplay look pretty impressive. Mayhaps its going to be a game more focused on exploration and open ended gameplay, which would be interesting if executed properly.

This:  If you like games such as NickToons Unite or Marvel Ultimate Alliance, this game still might be worth your time.  If you are looking for an actual Sonic game, you'll likely be disappointed.

"The Devil Inside is the new scam from director William Something Something. The movie stars actors and was edited on a computer. Somewhere. This movie is the latest film in a series of very low budget films designed to look like real movies! And be released in theaters to make a quick buck via a horribly off kilter budget to profit ratio that the general public seem to be stupidly unaware of! These films use to be called 'direct to video' but now they are called 'first run features'. These films then vanish from the theaters, like a rapist leaving the scene of a crime." - Mike Stoklasa of RedLetterMedia

All I expect is a game with Sonic in it.

I NEVER expect a real Sonic game.

So ProJared decided to give Sonic Boom another go....this is the results.

 

It think my previous opinion stands.  If you like games such as Marvel Ultimate Alliance (which I do) or Nicktoons Unite (Which I don't) this game has potential for you.  If you're looking for a game that plays like a Sonic Game (either 3D or 2D) you'll likely be disappointed.

Really guys? It was just one guy's opinion on the demo. Wait until everyone else gives a review and see just how well it fares.

I mean, most other game reviewers gave it mixed-to-positive reviews. If anything, the overall game itself might not be "great", but good/average. We shouldn't give up hope just yet.

Actually from the footage I've seen I'm guaranteed to buy it.  X-Men Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance are two of my favorite games.  If 'Boom plays like either I'll be all over it.
