Quantcast



Ladies and gentlemen, I am proud to announced that we have a VSWID exclusive this week. Not only does this episode have a special guest narrator, but it also will unveil, for the first time, a brand new character for Sonic the Hedgehog 4. Yes, that's right, we've got the first ever showing of Sonic's latest furry friend. How awesome is that!?

This week's episode is not only themed around Sonic 4, but also acts as a comprehensive retrospective of the blue hedgehog's career. Since Sega's latest franchise reboot is all about the nostalgia, it's only fitting that we look back at Sonic's greatest hits. I think you'll find plenty to appeal to your rose-tinted view of the world in this new show. 

Sit back and enjoy.

There are no words to express the amazing-ness of what I have just watched. On a related topic, I will now be wildly disappointed if that isn't the new second character. Tails, eat your heart out.

Things I love: Jim Sterling. Things I don't love: Mass Effect (More like ASS EFFECT). Perfect.

The stove burns. This one is probably just covered in enough nostalgic wax that people won't notice till it's too late.

Or it'll be awesome and the best sonic game since Unleashed.

Or it will be mediocre.

What I'm saying is, we've had a total of five seconds of footage.

You should review Pokemon HeartGold and SoulSilver, and call them Pokemon ShowerGold and SilverSurfer. Isn't that hilarious?

That anteater can suck his own d*ck. Really he can, it's one of his moves. He sucks it and rolls around in a ball, horrifying everyone in his path.

Oh, um, right...Sonic 4. Props to Sega for showing some...oh wait, Rockstar already did that in that GTA4 expansion...

Also, love that satirical bit about taking quotes outta context to make a game sound better, XD.

This was fucking incredible.

But what about Sonic and the Black Knight? Is that game non-canon or what?

In like nine installments Sonic should host again for a completely unrelated game with absolutely no explanation, because this was brilliant.

Hey, fuck you, Sterling! Mass Effect was great as long as you didn't have to play any of the parts where you had to shoot, drive, or stand in elevators.

Hard to believe that some faggots are making videos, in which they complain that "Sonic is slow in the video"... Serious, they whining about a teaser video!?

"Sorry bro your just not funny... at all"

Making a definitive statement like that doesn't work in a thread full of disagreement. The fact you don't personally find me funny is fine. The definitive claim that I am not, clearly, is erroneous.
