Last night I got an comment from a YouTuber on my Top 10 Worst Sonic Characters video. Saying, and I'm quoting "SILVER,knux,chip,rouge, OR vector dont belong here. U BELONG THERE." My first thought is, oh yay, more hate mail. But first and foremost, I must tell this person that their grammar is completely off.
If you're going to insult me, do it properly. Use correct spelling and grammar because you're only making yourself look like an uneducated idiot and will only prove me right when I reply to you. So therefore I'm already being too generous by giving you the chance to rewrite your statement to look like something an intelligent person would say, so maybe then what you say will hold some merit.
But then I get this as a reply, "What the fuck! Well, you don't have to make an entire video insulting someone's creations. By the way, I'm not writing to someone important (which you aren't), so what's the use.... -_- There, with your beautiful and wonderful punctuation, spelling, and grammar."
If I'm not important, why are you wasting your time? By saying I'm not, you've defeated the purpose of your reply yourself. And yes I don't have to, I wanted to. There's a difference between "have to" and "want to," one is obligation, the other is not. And to get to the really absurd point of the entry is that this person is defending fictional characters, FICTIONAL CHARACTERS! Someone is butthurt because I didn't like a fictional character.
I may not be important, but the issue of insulting fictional characters in their favorite franchise is important to this person to the point where they are defending the characters. If you are defending fictional characters, you really need to learn to draw the line between fantasy and reality. And that video has about 10k views and most of the comments are people raging that I didn't like these characters.
My Top 10 Worst Sonic Games get a lot of hate because of Sonic Adventure 2 mostly. The game had only 9 speed stages and 18 crappy shooting or treasure hunting ones. That's not a Sonic game and when you compare it to Sonic Adventure and Sonic heroes, it doesn't feel like a Sonic game at all.
I've gotten a few comments where people said they liked the characters/games I listed, but they were reasonable with their comments, even respecting my opinion or saying that what I said took balls.
And that's the difference between Sonic fans and Sonic fags. The fans are reasonable and will admit when something is shit or agree with you wen you make a valid point. Sonic fags will like everything regardless of quality and will defend it tooth and nail and will refuse to listen to any valid points you bring up.

Captain Planet and the Planeteers Review
I hated this game. Hated, hated, hated, hated, hated this game. Hated it. Hated every simpering stupid vacant player-insulting moment of it. Hated the sensibility that thought anyone would like it. Hated the implied insult to the player by its belief that anyone would be entertained by it.
I may have to change the Bubsy 3D rating to Captain Planet after this.

Sonic Generations Review
I beat Sonic Generations last night, I downloaded the PC version because it was cheaper and because I don't have a 360 or PS3. The game is programmed very well and it's overall fun, I love the voice acting in it, it's the best voice acting that any Sonic game ever had and have no complaints on it whatsoever. The music is amazing, the remixes of the old songs are done fantastically.
They break the fourth wall in a very subtle way. After completing Green Hill, Sonic asks if it's familiar to Tails, who says that it's not to him, as he wasn't in the first game. In the final confrontation, modern Sonic and Tails refer to Robotnik as Eggman, then classic Tails calls Robotnik, Dr. Robotnik, who in turn says that no one calls him that anymore.
I do have plenty of nitpicks though...
The level selection is sub-par, Sky Sanctuary, while it looks great, could of been substituted for Death Egg or maybe even Launch Base. There's Speed Highway and City Escape, which are rather redundant as they're both taking place in a city. Lost Temple would of been a better replacement for Speed Highway. Seaside Hill is also the worst choice from Sonic Heroes, as Hang Castle or Egg Fleet would of been better choices. The modern selection is good, but I don't think it was really needed as those games are really recent, Crisis City is alright to have but Rooftop Run and Planet Wisp are too recent to have included.
The level design is good, but some could be better, like City Escape should of been longer, it was way to short for what is the middle of the game, especially when you look at Speed Highway and the Seaside Hill. Seaside Hill is a poor excuse for an underwater stage, it wasn't an underwater stage in Sonic Heroes so why now? And Planet Wisp is just too fucking long.
There isn't enough Robotnik, ever since Unleashed he's been a really awesome villain, he's funny and is more active in his plans. You only hear his voice twice, before and after the first boss and only see him twice, after the third boss and before the last.
Now onto actual criticisms,
There's only 4 boss fights. Death Egg Robot, Perfect Chaos, Egg Dragoon and Time Eater. All the bosses only take about 4 or 5 hits, with the second to last hit being the actual final blow with the last one being for cinematic purposes only.
Super Sonic is handled very poorly, after you beat the game you get Super Sonic as a skill. It takes 100 skill points, effectively making it so you can't use any other skills. As Super Sonic your ring count drains faster than one ring per-second, it's about one ring per .75 seconds. Using the boost sucks up your rings at about 10 rings per-second. Super Sonic also moves a lot slower than normal Sonic so it's not really worth it.
There's very few rings in the stages and they're far and few between. And there's too many spikes in the game, they're in every stage even in stages that had no spikes in their original incarnation. Classic Sonic will loose rings the most because they put enemies on the edges of ledges, so jumping onto that ledge will enure that you're going to lose your rings. While you don't lose all your rings when you get hit, you lose a ton of them and you can only pick up a few. So if you drop 20 rings, you can only pick up about 5, even if you're touching them.
If I were to give my usual ratings, it would be a Decent game. It's pretty lazy that they're using time travel as a basis for a story again. The game is a nice attempt to please Sonic fans, giving the old school gameplay and the modern gameplay, although the modern gameplay is essentially classic gameplay with a few tweaks. While not suffering from any of the problems that previous games like Sonic 2006 or Sonic Unleashed had, it just feels like they were just being lazy, as if they wanted to show 20 years of Sonic and make a game out of it.
But Sonic Generations is prime real estate for DLC levels. Sega would be fools not to have more levels added in like Starlight Zone, Death Egg or others as there are certainly more memorable levels than the ones they chose for this game. But since Sega are fools and are no longer the once mighty gaming company they once were, I don't see this happening. I know Casino Night is coming as a DLC, but that's just a pinball mini game and no one really cares for Sonic pinball games.

Kim Kardashian - Ignoring it will make it go away
So it's big news that Kim Kardashian got divorced in 72 hours after getting married. It's not called a divorce, it's called an annulment first off. And secondly, why do people still care about her?
Why are they famous? Just because their father was OJ's lawyer? "We're the daughters of OJ's lawyer, give us a TV show!"
The Kardashians are fucking morons that need to be purged from this earth if we are ever to increase the intelligence of the world, same with Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan. I'd say Brittney Spears, but no one gives a crap about her anymore, she's run her life into the ground.
And Kim Kardashian thought she could sing? Remember that song she released, it was hated just as much as Rebecca Black's song.
No one cares about these rich spoiled brats but yet our media just forces them down our fucking throats. They haven't done anything except make asses out of themselves and no one wants to see it because it's stupid.
If we as people just stopped watching the news reports or stopped clicking on links about these stories, then they would stop reporting on it and these morons would disappear.
These rich, young women, who are only famous for being young and the offspring of someone rich and famous. They're just attention seekers, that's all.

Apple vs Samsung II
Well now, Samsung should be kicking themselves. Spanish tablet maker is NT-K, just won a lawsuit that Apple has filed against them. NT-K made an Android tablet and then Apple came in a said they were infringing on their iPad design.
Well NT-K proved that their tablet was not infringing on Apple's patents or design and are now COUNTER-SUING Apple for anti-competitive behavior.
Ever since the iPhone Apple has been throwing their weight around, suing all sorts of Android device manufacturers for infringement. They've even said that they copied the overall look of the iPad. How does that hold up in court? The LOOK of the device is grounds for a lawsuit? How are you supposed to make a tablet then? That's the equivalent to a utensil company suing another because they made a knife. No shit, that's how it's supposed to look otherwise it wouldn't be a knife then, it'd be a spoon or or fork.
But anyway, this small little company won the infringement lawsuit and hopefully they win the counter-suit. Anyone with a brain can tell that what Apple is doing is anti-competitive behavior. It really doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out, but apparently the court systems need to get a brain from the Wizard of Oz because they can't fucking see that.
