FAST Racing NEO is a futuristic racing game that will be released 2015 exclusively for Wii U (in the eshop). The game looks very promising but probably a lot of people don't know about it so I thought it would be a good idea to post a new topic. Here are first details: - It'll run at 60fps (frames per second) and 720p - It'll support 1-4 local multiplayer - Online racing and online rankings will be included - The first footage will be shown in June.

Welcome to the Idea Zone Welcome to the idea zone! This is a redo of the original Zone Idea Zone, by a friend. Here there are many different categories, templates and idea types to choose from. Instead of just zones, you could do special stages, bosses, minigames, new games. You can even share your input on what some previous games could've/should've had. Remember these are all the headstarter categories, for those who find it a bit hard to share theirs: - Classic Sonic Zones - Classic Sonic Bosses - Classic Sonic Other - Modern Sonic Zones - Modern Sonic Bosses - Modern Sonic Minigames - Modern Sonic Other - New Sonic Zones* - New Sonic Bosses* - New Sonic Minigames* - New Sonic Ideas* - New Sonic Other* *New Sonic as in a new type of Sonic gameplay or a character redo. - New Games - Special Stages - Stories Now these two are example templates, just in case you want to present your ideas in the best way possible, and need help of course.

I don't expect this topic to light the forums ablaze with discussion, but y'all need more sciencey stuff, and I thought that the article was hella interesting, so ner. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-23135934 Also happening just over a billion years from now: The moon will finally be far enough away from the Earth to escape its orbit, and either hurtle into the sun or one of the other planets, settle into an orbit around the sun or a gas giant, or be ejected from the solar system entirely. Thereafter, the Earth's oceans will collect around the polar regions, devastating what complex life remains (which will already be having a hard enough time dealing with the sun, heat and vanishing water sources), and the planet will probably soon after become tidally locked to the sun (one side constantly facing it, the other always facing away). A billion or two years after all life vanishes even from within the Earth's crust, the sun will enter its Red Giant phase and vaporize the planet entire, alongside Mercury, Venus and possibly maybe also Mars. It's a bleak future, but also rather fascinating for me because, well, it's the beginning of the end of life as we know it, and it's not coming in 4 billion years or so when the sun goes up, it starts in just a billion years' time. Hopefully scientists will soon be able to predict exactly what will become of the moon, by using the data we have on the moon's orbital speeds and rate of outward movement, and that of the orbital speeds and paths of the Earth and other planets and moons' orbits too, to build models predicting what is likely or probably going to occur.

Whenever a new calendar year hoves into view, every year we seem to wonder how the next could get any better (or, ahem, worse) than the last one. We know something of what's coming already of course; a handful of names and dates, usually accompanied by some media and a few details. However, half of what will make the next year great is what isn't known at the start of it; the sometimes bitter reality at the end of those extensive hype campaigns, unexpected sales figures, instant classics emerging from nowhere, and of course those surprise announcements at the year's trade shows. So, with that in mind, what would you predict of this year? Or do you have something to say about other peoples' predictions? Please don't make tiny posts, by the way, it's nice to see a little thought go into these things. Here's a few of mine: Hardware: New XBox revealed, to release in October. New PlayStation revealed, to release in Q1/Q2 2014. Details on hardware sketchy at first, though Sony is obviously trying hard to reveal as much as it can. Likely that some major announcements are being saved for close to the New Xbox's release, to steal thunder and sales. Valve's console thingamajig revealed, to release "when it's done." Everybody gets overexcited. Vita sales get a shot in the arm when a few more AC: Liberation-style games (that is, spin-offs of console favorites which aren't just ports) are announced at E3 and release in the late months of the year. The boost isn't enough to make the system any less of a joke, however, and things continue to look a bit bleak by year's end. Software: Darksiders 3 to be announced and teased, most likely at E3, but will not release in calendar year 2013, or even 2014. No gameplay for it will be shown this year, either. Doom 4 is announced and trailed. The Hype Train goes into overdrive. The game releases sooner than expected, to great fanfare. Fallout 4 announced and revealed at E3. Everybody impressed. Releases in Q3 on all formats, with PS4/New Xbox ports promised for mid-late 2014. Wii U gets it in calendar year 2013. Mass Effect 4, without the 4 and with a subtitle, begins a new story arc for the ME universe. Opinions are somewhat mixed, but cautiously optimistic. Nintendo announces and trails Pikmin 3DS, The Legend of Zelda 3DS, a new F-Zero, a new Smash Bros. game, Wii Fit U and an exclusive new project from The Behemoth. Sonic 4: Episode 3 finally gets revealed and released. It turns out to be the best one yet, but by this point nobody actually cares, so it largely falls under the radar. Sega takes the hint and decides that Episode 4 will be the final episode, followed by the release of a special all-episodes compilation pack for download and retail release, containing new little cut-scenes linking everything together. The new "main series" Sonic game from Sega looks promising. SonicCycle.jpg gets passed around yet again. The Walking Dead: Season 2 announced and trailed at E3, to release early in 2014 to much critical acclaim. Yet another Final Fantasy game. I hope that this thread might be revived in a year's time, so we might look back on our foolish hopes and/or prescience and smile, and so we can predict the year 2014 with equally gleeful* abandon. *May not be all that gleeful. GO!

Ever since the "dark ages" that Sonic has been through, from 2005-2009, starting with Shadow The Hedgehog, and considered by most to end with Sonic and The Black Knight, the hedgehog we all know and love has finally been getting back up on his feet with games, such as Sonic Colors, and Sonic Generations which have caused many fans of the franchise to regain trust in Sonic. Up to this point, Sonic has been also getting a small resurge of popularity, as recently, he was in a Progressive commercial. What do you see in Sonic's future? What do you expect? What do you want to happen?

You can write down your ideas for future Sonic games!

Should there be a game where Sonic actually screws up (more than in Unleashed intro, but no werehog) and this actually affects the future which Silver is in? Then Silver tries stopping it but IT'S NO USE (sorry couldn't resist). Then something happens.... Then Sonic is aware.. Two work together... And a cause & effect system like in Spiderman: Edge of Time, juz expand it a whole lot more. (I thought that had so much potential) This could work out to be an awesome 06 reboot if any of you can find out a way to put in Shadow, without forcing it. Discuss what you think about this whole idea.
