Resorted to self-mockery, eh?
https://youtu.be/vLQK836wWYM Some new gameplay of Team Sonic racing from TGS. Market Street, a Rooftop Run themed level was shown. Some interesting details from TGS and EGX talks over the past few days: Jun Senoue is doing the game's OST almost as a whole it seems, with Richard Jacques handling a few themes in-between. Each "Zone" will have three different tracks. So this means that Market Street is likely one of three Rooftop Run themed stages, one of the others likely being the one in the clouds from the trailer. Eggman and Metal Sonic confirmed (To no-one's surprise). Ice Mountain, the stage previewed in screenshots and short clips, is actually a combination of several ice stages from Sonic's past, which explains the debate over which it was supposed to be. Apparently the game has been in dev for 2.5 years, which could be true, or could be another Forces case where they count engine dev as part of that time.
tbh still looks like a fun kart game. Still wished that the racetracks tells a bit more and a little more hectic.
I always thought the Transformed stuff was a really cool gimmick. Sad to see it go, but this is looking pretty fun
I think the reason that the tracks are less hectic is because it seems like the racers cause more chaos than usual in this game. Look at a few clips from the Market Street gameplay when you have players throwing bombs, tossing down giant blocks, and one has a big laser shooting out the front of their car, all in one tiny section of track. It probably gets even more chaotic in Online play, and possibly on this game's equivalent of higher CCs.
not really impressed. it just looks like sonic racing transformed but with less of everything IMO. hopefully they just aren't showing everything yet but it seems really lacking
Looks like the game might be delayed to 2019: https://gonintendo.com/stories/319972-team-sonic-racing-promotional-material-lists-the-game-with-a-2019
Could just be a mistake, seems to happen often with foreign publications somehow, but I also wouldn't doubt it at all. Seems like it needs a little more time in the oven. If it results in a better game I'm not complaining. In fact, I'd be impressed. With SEGA's track record of pushing unfinished/unpolished games out way too early, it'd be good to see them recognize when something needs more time.

Team Sonic Racing will have to wait a little longer before crossing the finish line: https://twitter.com/sonic_hedgehog/status/1055490414382219264
Any Sonic game that gets delayed is good news in my book
SEGA finally learns from the mistakes of their past!
SEGA is giving Crunchii a run for his money: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZj_MZVXNg4
Knowing how much their Sonic social media brand loves memes, I'm surprised they haven't also aimed to give SilvaGunner a run for their money too
Was Super Sonic Racing confirmed to make a return?
Assuming you're referring to the Sonic Team Racing teaser, no. Not really. It's called Sonic Team Racing and looks like a step back from Transformed. More co-op focused gameplay, and it's Sonic-only with no other Sega IP's. No transforming, it's karts only.
No, I'm referring to the famous song composed by Richard Jacques.
Oh, then I dunno.

Yo, I dig that Eggman design. I guess he based it on Sonic SatAM.

I kind of wish we got another sonic riders instead of a kart game. Also it looks really slow.
Good news for any of you who are fans of the Sonic Boom cartoon: you can buy the first season of the show digitally from iTunes and Amazon! I assume the second season will be available to buy not long after this.
Wow I can't believe I'm saying this but I miss Sonic Boom, hope they don't abandon the universe.
Yeah, I feel like there are many more stories to tell in the Boomiverse. Things were really getting interesting in season two.
What I could see them happening is just relaunching the Boom show but with the normal designs rather than the Boom redesigns.
whatever they do, please at least keep Sticks.
The characterization of the whole main cast was fantastic in sonic boom, especially changing Amy's crush on Sonic to be a secret instead the defining feature of her personality. I really hope some of that seeps back into the main games, except maybe Knuckles and Eggman. Hopefully Sticks sticks around (ha ha) outside of party game appearances. She's got a mainline design ready to go and she's in sonic channel promo shit, now we just need to get her into a real game

Goddamn, Robo Blast is a name I haven't heard in a long time.
