Getter404: @Foxmar320 Please. No. It's Ichiban, so it's a Like A Dragon game
LurkerSpine: with a stroke of luck, you might become a monster truck
Metalupis: silly LRR, prix are for kids

Its_VeeBot: Steve's victory dance is amazing
Cptasparagus: nice on!
Diabore: first they steal your minecart, then they steal your 1st and 2nd place
HadesLeprechaun: I mean it looks like...Mario Kart, just need to learn what the items do
Ranakel: You're telling me a subway surfed this rice?
Foxmar320: The hoverboards are more for control and less speed
RandomTrivia:
Hello again friends! 
consolecowboy88: I honestly thought the crocodile man was a battletoad
Its_VeeBot: Oh okay, I'm guessing you pre-select your powerup loadouts?
Its_VeeBot: And just pick them each race?
Foxmar320: Yeah before the race you normally pick your gear
Foxmar320: Game even has loadouts you can setup
Cptasparagus: fuel burning fast on an empty tank
Its_VeeBot: Oh god Omochao is here
Its_VeeBot: Kill it with fire
Getter404: Become Car
RatherLargeToad: 🎵It’s Sonic Racing!🎵
mtvcdm: So many rings
OldUncleDan: Why is Cori playing as King K. Rule?
RandomTrivia: There's LORE?!
Cptasparagus: the rings are his blood
ButButTheJesus: Let's ask Obama
adept_nekomancer: I think the lore is "We can't let Mario have all the karts!"
RatherLargeToad: I think it might be the final lap…
Basic_Human_Decency: The lore is this is just a regular day for ichiban.
OldUncleDan: Ian was Space Truckin'!
Foxmar320: There is actually lore to this game. lol
niccus: it's the final frontier for light truck chassis
randombillfolds: You got StarsTruck.
mtvcdm: There's always lore to these games. Nobody said it had to make sense.
TheAinMAP:

Foxmar320: "Learning"
Lord_Hosk: All the visual puke is making my head hurt
A_Dub888: learning is happening
Getter404: Ichiban Kasuga: Canonically faster than Sonic
patrick_stonecrusher: nobody show james robotnics ring racer
wedge_x: crossing the streams more like overstimulating the james
HadesLeprechaun: This does not look any more visually cluttered or wild than modern Mario Kart to me
patrick_stonecrusher: his eyeballs would explode
A_Dub888: @wedge_x I thought that was Good Morning Moonbase
Its_VeeBot: God damn it Ian
hyralt: That was an ocarina of time water temple reference
Juliamon: yeah, visually it feels the same as modern Mario Kart to me
RandomTrivia: E G G
adept_nekomancer: Enjoy egg!
Shadowsoflife: E G G
Dog_of_Myth: E G G
mtvcdm: Yeah. This is just Mario Kart
Foxmar320: Yeah it's not visually a lot but a lot of stuff is happening
Foxmar320: Ive said on stream before this game is far more chaotic than Mario Kart.
betweenmyself:
I find the distinct lack of Garfield and his friends to be disturbing 
mtvcdm: It probably just *seems* worse because we're on four-player splitscreen.
mtvcdm: If this was just one player on one screen it'd feel less cluttered.
patrick_stonecrusher: wowee zowie
Foxmar320: Yeah split screen could also be making it feel like a lot
adept_nekomancer: Like an uncountable number of dragons.
RatherLargeToad: Fire! Hot!
MacbethSeemsSus: Fire not friend?
Toxxick: its mario kart with all the super smash brothers toggles on
A_Dub888: !findquote fire

6 raiders from SeiichiSin have joined!
Foxmar320: Welcome raiders!
SeiichiSin:

TehAmelie: how goes the struggle against the machine uprising?
A_Dub888: why did Eggman let one of his robots race?
DigitalSeahorse:

DigitalSeahorse:
sonic music 
Thefluffiestguineapig: @A_Dub888 Same reason he "let" metal sonic race
Foxmar320: @A_Dub888 oh because he is cheating and padding his numbers. His team has 4 and all the others are 3.
Its_VeeBot: That's so unlike Eggman
Its_VeeBot: Just win, just win, just win the race
Foxmar320: Metal got Ghosted
Foxmar320: Team Vector
hyralt: Go Iean!!
hyralt: Wow. I meant Ian
Ranakel: Actually, coins are just filled rings
Foxmar320: Beat the rival
TheAinMAP:

Its_VeeBot: I was trying to figure out who's on Team Eggman and totally forgot about Sage
KaleidoscopeMind: 3 spicy + 1 blue spice
RandomTrivia:

Its_VeeBot: Spunched Bob
TheAinMAP:

MAPBoardgames: Stealing Uno's bit
Mazrae: So is James cosplaying Uno now?
Foxmar320: Im glad SEGA put Uno in this game
A_Dub888: Hi Speed
Foxmar320: Wow going to beat up a little girl
Its_VeeBot: Ian about to destroy this child's dreams
Ranakel: @Foxmar320 Didn'ty know Uno was a bat
asddsa28: this might be ace combat
Gekyouryuu: I'm assuming Ian is Ichiban, James is Creeper, Matt is Bob le'ponge, and Cori is Rouge?
Vinewood_OG: Eisenhower was right
mtvcdm: Hack the bone! Hack the bone!
Gekyouryuu: I stand corrected
MacbethSeemsSus: Rouge's emotes are.......a choice
Singenmeister: I’m just a Bob, just a regular Bob, and I flip burgers every day for my job.
Ranakel: He uses bazookas in his own kart racer!
A_Dub888: does Ichi have a license?
TheAinMAP:

jacqui_lantern234: man, i adore Ichiban Kasuga so much
jacqui_lantern234:
also HAI NERDS 
jacqui_lantern234: yall are loved beyond measure!!!
Foxmar320: There is a mod to give Ichiban his voice in this game
Its_VeeBot: @A_Dub888 He's the only racer in the lineup who doesn't
Its_VeeBot: And I'm including the literal child
BrowneePointz: I'm excited for that Not-kuza by Nagoshi starring Ma Dong-Seok
Ranakel: Looking forward to Yakuza 9: Ichiban takes driving lessons
LRRbot:
If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Please give your clips descriptive names if you want them to be seen!)
Ranakel: Reason is sooo past decade
jacqui_lantern234: @Its_VeeBot in his defense, he fairly recently spent many years in prison
Ranakel: Oh yeah matt, that actually was what made me switch mains
mtvcdm: James with the snipe at the line
SymphonySolstice:

Mazrae: Yay Uno takes it
BrowneePointz: Question: Did any of the games shown at the Game Awards catch your intrigue/excitement? I legitimately yelled involuntary at the new KOTOR announcement my neighbors yelled at me
MacbethSeemsSus: Don't get too excited Creeper, that's what happened to your dad
A_Dub888: @jacqui_lantern234 true, plus his commute to work was like a 15 minute walk from his home
TehAmelie: that's bad for traction huh
adept_nekomancer: Spongebob choosing violence
saucemaster5000: Gotta spread the cream all over the tarmac
Singenmeister:
creamy child 
TheDevil_Risen: James #1 Creeper
jacqui_lantern234: @A_Dub888 also he lives in the greater tokyo area
mtvcdm: You know, these games never depict the qualifying session of Sonic Racing CrossWorlds race weekend
Its_VeeBot: Do you think Vanilla knows or cares that her daughter is go-kart rivals with a thief, a major crime boss, an explosive menace, and SpongeBob?
Pal_Friendpatine: Now this is podracing!
Ranakel: What's a little digestive plant goop racing between friends?
Thefluffiestguineapig: That is a very Georgia O'Keaffee launch pad
TehAmelie: it's just gokarting, it can't be that dangerous
BrowneePointz: @Its_VeeBot if the fanart is to be believed she's too busy entertaining Suitors of all size shape ability and gender to care
Ranakel: CLEARLY
Its_VeeBot: @Pal_Friendpatine I don't know why but I feel like you in particular making that reference is laying it on quite thick
jacqui_lantern234: MATT

Its_VeeBot: Speaking of which, how much O'Keaffe, @Thefluffiestguineapig?
Ranakel: I do love that both the "heck up the leader" items can also ruin the lives of those behind them
jacqui_lantern234: JAMES
Thefluffiestguineapig: Who the hell are Cream and Cheese?
jamesinor: Quote that?
TheDevil_Risen:
James defending the #1 creeper spot 
mtvcdm: Cream and Cheese almost getting bageled
Ranakel: Where else would you buy pictures of products?!
Its_VeeBot: @Thefluffiestguineapig They're from Sonic Adventure 2 originally, I think?
Thefluffiestguineapig: @mtvcdm If they get beat bad enough they might get toasted
UtilityPunk: Detailers probably make a lot of money off gacha cars
TehAmelie: that giant gacha machine seems dangerous, from a game addiction standpoint
BrowneePointz: I'm so used to Lani Minella and Kathleen Delaney as Rouge that hearing Karen Strassman still shimmies me
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Its_VeeBot These games have too many characters that I have never heard of
BrowneePointz: Vanilla Cream and Cheese are not from SA2
Its_VeeBot: Sorry, Sonic *Advance* 2
BrowneePointz: there ya go lol
Its_VeeBot: Which hilariously has the same acronym
BrowneePointz: I had to double check myself I was like "I think they're from the GBA games"
MacbethSeemsSus: MATT
mtvcdm: After Sonic, Knuckles, Tails and maybe Amy, do we even need any of the rest?
Its_VeeBot: I knew they were in the series sometime before Heroes
BrowneePointz: excuse you
BrowneePointz: are you discounting Eggman, Shadow, Ezio, VECTOR!? CHARMY!?
BrowneePointz: BIG the CAT!?
Juliamon: you better NOT be tryina minimize Big
Its_VeeBot: Who is besmirching the name of my man Big
Foxmar320: Big is the best character in the series
mtvcdm: Eggman isn't an anthropomorphic critter, doesn't count
Ranakel: The funniest part of this game remains that the weird sonic animals are the only ones allowed to speak
BrowneePointz: let alone Blaze the Cat
saucemaster5000: the animals that can't speak are the lower class
BrowneePointz: the comics go more into that
UtilityPunk: "Oh my god, I got to 2nd" - Me, when I held my gf's hand for the first time
BrowneePointz: but I don't think the games touch it
A_Dub888: uh ohhh, boostieee
Its_VeeBot: One of you boosted the best, the other one is the best at that one boss from Super Mario RPG
saucemaster5000: yeah this is an anti cream stream
Its_VeeBot: The question is: Is Cream driving or is she letting Cheese drive?
BrowneePointz: If this is a Family stream why is Rouge the Bat on screen?
SymphonySolstice: cheese is the driver 100%
Its_VeeBot: Actually yeah I assume Cheese is the one with the license
SymphonySolstice: cheese has their class 1
ArmstrongRGM96X: Cream is at the wheel, Cheese works the pedals
exeJayce: cheese is 100% the driver
BrowneePointz: Guest Characters don't have lines
mtvcdm: Cheese gets to do an FP1 once or twice a season
MacbethSeemsSus: Worse that's the Creeper making those noises
BrowneePointz: it's a sore spot for folks
Its_VeeBot: Oh yeah lmao, Rouge is the only non-guest driver here, didn't even notice
TehAmelie: imagine if a creeper was the fastest racer in the world. no one would be safe
Its_VeeBot: I assume Tom Kenny wanted too much money
BrowneePointz: at least from what I remember hearing from friends none of the guest characters have lines*
Gekyouryuu: no, Cori, you came from the Bikini Atol
Juliamon: it makes sense for the creeper to not have lines, but like... Miku should
Foxmar320: None of the DLC characters have lines. But modders fixed that
TehAmelie: i get a feeling this game doesn't have the most coherent design philosophy
mtvcdm: !clip

Its_VeeBot: Spongeboy-me-Bob, I've sequenced the human genome! ACGACGACG
BrowneePointz: All I can tell is that the last lap always seems HELLA rubber band-y
TehAmelie: a cream cheese sandwich would be nice right now. with smoked salmon and lettuce. . .
BrowneePointz: Wait, do they have Cream but not Vanilla?
BrowneePointz: Vanilla is like the ONLY ADULT ANIMAL besides Shadow
Foxmar320: Yeah no Vanilla
Thefluffiestguineapig: @TehAmelie I just want a good bagel sandwich
Its_VeeBot: Wait, Big is here but no Froggy
trainpants: all these sonic characters and no Sally Acorn? Smh
444jado: please play in sonic speed
Foxmar320: Big has a frog car

Ranakel: Beef the beef is my favorite sonic character
Foxmar320: Annnnd everyone falls off
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Foxmar320 I see, is this rainbow road?
BrowneePointz: As a Person too
patrick_stonecrusher: hey
BrowneePointz: have you SEEN spongebob the last 15 years?
Vinewood_OG: The 2nd Arby's near me closed. We no longer have the meats.
Its_VeeBot: Arbys has been rendered unto dust, as we all shall be. Eat Arby's.
Foxmar320:

TheAinMAP: Big snake.
TehAmelie: does the trick score just add together vertical and sideways revolutions?
betweenmyself:
this game needs that big headed video game mascot from the Genesis era… John Madden 
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Its_VeeBot I miss good things like nihilist arby's from the internet
BrowneePointz: if you've watched any spongebob recently at all, yea Patrick sucks
Dog_of_Myth: @betweenmyself His vehicle would be a turducken.
BrowneePointz: they just made him an absolute asshole
Its_VeeBot: Flanderization'll do that to ya
Vinewood_OG: Psycho Mantis? In 2025??
BrowneePointz: I feel like Eggman would be really good at Basketball
BrowneePointz: SEGA is still in the middle of trying to revive that Franchise
BrowneePointz: remember they DO have a new one cookin
betweenmyself: @Dog_of_Myth or that ambulance from the one year that you could run over the players if anybody got injured
Thefluffiestguineapig: They have specifically Ichiban Kasuga in this, not even Kazuma Kiryu
BrowneePointz: Ichiban has recency zeitgeist over Kiryu
Thefluffiestguineapig: Also THEY HAVE CREAM AND CHEESE MATT
MacbethSeemsSus: Kraken?
Dog_of_Myth:

TheAinMAP:

DigitalSeahorse:

BrowneePointz: It's okay Ian, you can destroy the plaza. This game *Suuuuuuuuuuuuucked*
BrowneePointz: Sonic Unleashed...more like Sonic...Unsatisfied
betweenmyself: can we get Mike and Spike from Bonanza Bros. as a racing duo?
Its_VeeBot: Dr. Ivo "Wario" Robotnik
asddsa28: it is

Its_VeeBot: It's the road that you go, when you die
patrick_stonecrusher: please im trying to cook 😭
DigitalSeahorse: everyone else seeing motion blur of 4 screens on fast frame rates being shoved through a non fiber connection?
betweenmyself: more Genesis representation that could be added to the game: Vectorman, Ecco the Dolphin, Poulterguy…
patrick_stonecrusher: 😱
iarethel0ser: @patrick_stonecrusher RIP, friend, I guess.
Foxmar320:
James 
TheAinMAP: Two photo finishes.
BrowneePointz: James did pretty good for driving directly into the wall the entire last 15 seconds
mtvcdm: Dynamite Headdy
betweenmyself:
Alan Grant riding a Raptor from Genesis Jurassic Park 
BrowneePointz: Modern Mario Kart has WAY more readability
TehAmelie: so many rings
BrowneePointz: trackwise and effectswise
Foxmar320: This is more chaotic than Mario Kart. A lot more going on.
UtilityPunk: This game has the legibility of a slot machine
MacbethSeemsSus: snek
Foxmar320: Also split screen is even more.
goombalax: @betweenmyself Dr Grant, Joe Musashi,
TheMerricat: So chat, what's the difference between the red and blue speed ramps?
444jado: it’s so fun
HadesLeprechaun: 4 player spiltscreen likely not helping
Ranakel: Yeah, crossworld is a lot of stuff going on, and the difference between first and last place is like, a sneeze. And I kinda love it for it?
444jado: @TheMerricat when you take blue ones, you don’t slow down on areas that slow you down like grass
Foxmar320: Yeah its so easy to come back from last place in Crossworlds.
TheMerricat: @444jado Thanks!
444jado:

Foxmar320: Thats why the last lap feels so swingy
BrowneePointz: I think they lead to shortcuts too
BrowneePointz: or alternate routes
betweenmyself:
@TheMerricat based on my vague knowledge of astrophysics, I would presume the blue ramps are moving toward us while the red are moving away 
TheMerricat:
@betweenmyself 
Foxmar320: Yes during lap 3 all the shortcuts open as well if you know where they are
Thefluffiestguineapig: I think the thing at these higher difficulties might be to just focus on the computer and try to help each other, that might be how Heather and Beej managed to do anything with them
RandomTrivia:
@TheMerricat Are you sure about that? Would you like to Dopple down? 
Ranakel: "Oh no, the robot's hateful" is miriam webster's expression of the year
betweenmyself:
@RandomTrivia oh the exquisite pain of that pun 
Juliamon: I dunno, I still constantly get lost and overwhelmed by any Mario Kart past 64, this really genuinely doesn't feel different to me
goombalax: @betweenmyself if you'd like exquisite pain I can reccomend a good french bakery
TheAinMAP: This must be a living history museum.
Foxmar320: We used to play a lot of MK8 on my channel and this is up there with that
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Foxmar320 Nope, I'm out. As soon as someone gets an advantage from playing this a huge amount from track knowledge it loses value as a party game which is one of the eternal redeeming qualities of MarioKart
betweenmyself:
@goombalax light buttery pain 
BrowneePointz: @Thefluffiestguineapig I have bad news for you about Mario Kart
Juliamon: my sister and friends played a *lot* of MK7
BrowneePointz: specifically the last 3 of them
Juliamon: it was always like this for me
Its_VeeBot: She is innocent, and also knows no fear
Foxmar320: @Thefluffiestguineapig I don't understand? Even MK has track knowledge.
glitched_goddess: why is Patrick here
MacbethSeemsSus: Swap eyes, cycle your corneas
Thefluffiestguineapig: @glitched_goddess Because capitalism is hell
mtvcdm: Exchange your haunches
goombalax: @glitched_goddess he doesn't get it either
niccus: oh no they added a frog with rhythm minigame to dota
BrowneePointz: @Juliamon the game looks fun and even more arcadey than MK, but there's definitely a readability difference to me(i've got like a combined 900 hours across MK8DX and World)
mtvcdm: Marvel at how 'haunch' is a fun word to just scream, uninhibited by context or other words/
betweenmyself:
I’ve made this joke so many times it has now become the truth: I want a Squeenix/Disney crossover racer. Give me KINGDOM KARTS! 
mtvcdm: Just walk up to someone and suddenly yell "HAUNCH!" It's fun!
Foxmar320: @BrowneePointz I think splitscreen might be hurting the readability a bit
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Foxmar320 For me I bounced off of a lot of games because people would weaponize their knowledge to demonstrate how I was bad and engaging wrong, not because I had never played these games before
BrowneePointz: @Foxmar320 I've watched you and some others play it and it's also the track design a lil
MyrddintheWizard subscribed at Tier 1. They've subscribed for 78 months!
MyrddintheWizard: Now this is Pod Racing...Wait, what? Cheers, everyone!
LRRbot:
Thanks for subscribing, MyrddintheWizard! (Today's storm count: 27)
Thefluffiestguineapig: There's not clear color design choices to help with visual parsing in this game (there is also some of that in some MK levels too, but it's consistently an issue here)
Ranakel: I dunno, it goes zoom and makes me go "wheeee"
MacbethSeemsSus: Okay, they should have written a longer theme. This is looping a lot
Thefluffiestguineapig: This is too short to be elevator music
betweenmyself: character idea: the Daytona Car from SEGA Fighters Megamix driving a Daytona Car from Daytona USA

TheAinMAP:

iris_of_ether: Good evening, chat. Is everyone playing the obvious character for them? 😁
patrick_stonecrusher: you may feel the need to write a dissertation on how every choice that movie made was the wrong one
Juliamon: No, guest characters are mute
TheAinMAP: ^
Foxmar320: Yeah DLC characters are mute but modders have fixed that.
Foxmar320: The mod support for this is extensive.
MacbethSeemsSus: Where's the desert bus graphic
Defrost: I for one do not support this
Ranakel: Hatsune Miku's one specific song
patrick_stonecrusher: dont give babies carbonated beverages, use mocha monster instead
wedge_x: sucks but rules
mtvcdm: We didn't get killed in a way that matters
Foxmar320: If you just want to do normal races, pick Quick Race or whatever. Top Right
Shadowsoflife:

MacbethSeemsSus: Digiloppy
Ranakel: Can't write Zavok without OK
mtvcdm: Naughty fighty bois
Foxmar320: Oh Spin to Win! Go cause chaos Ian!!!

TehAmelie: really it's amazing you're making progress in the game while playing multiplayer
RandomTrivia: MATT
UtilityPunk: You know what they say, play to your strengths. Kart-bump time
Foxmar320: Eggman on hoverboard is the best
Thefluffiestguineapig: @TehAmelie The fact LRR makes so much progress in many of these games while playing multiplayer is profoundly amazing to me
MacbethSeemsSus: Ian do a bump!
TehAmelie: it must be the power of friendship
TehAmelie: and anime
UtilityPunk: You've heard of the elf ball strategy, get ready for the cart ball strategy
Foxmar320:

Vinewood_OG: RIP Tron
Foxmar320:

Thefluffiestguineapig: That's a great quote ""screams" I'm going so fast sideways"
Thefluffiestguineapig: For the same reason Cream and Cheese are in this game
patrick_stonecrusher: Scary Poppins
Foxmar320: 1 point
mtvcdm: We just have to beat the evil team
Foxmar320: Minecraft middle bottom
MacbethSeemsSus: Share the seed so the rest of us can play
mtvcdm: Minecraft, Bikini Bottom, Release Expected In January
Thefluffiestguineapig: Is that a villager in the crowd?
Sethalidos: how long til James falls down a hole?
Foxmar320: Yep villagers

LRRbot: New quote #9502: "It's hard to determine what is fire." —Cori [2025-12-15]
Foxmar320: Killed it!
Its_VeeBot: I object to this, I didn't see James fall down a hole once
mtvcdm: Well that should settle it nicely
Strebenherz: ichiban kasuga, hah
TheAinMAP: Everyone did better than James on the "Minecraft" course.
Foxmar320: SEGA has already said they are supporting this for like two years
Its_VeeBot: Chat, if you're wondering how these characters are eating and breathing, and other science facts, just repeat to yourself "It's just a game, I should really just relax."
Its_VeeBot: But how are they breathing underwater anyway
iris_of_ether: Matt omg
h47hat: I love the water effects . . . under . . .
Its_VeeBot: Ze Goo Lagoon
Foxmar320: There is a mod for this to put your own custom Minecraft skin in. Could have James's skin in this
Its_VeeBot: Go Team!
BrowneePointz: by the same token
Foxmar320: At the line!!!

BrowneePointz: no real momentum change makes items feel worse
TheAinMAP:

Ranakel: The rouge "ooh" "aaah" are BACK bay bee!
Foxmar320: @TehAmelie I think it does in single player?
Thefluffiestguineapig: Did I just hear Ian say he's trying using Lizzie Borden?
Its_VeeBot: Sage is from Frontiers
Foxmar320: Sage is Eggman's daungter
patrick_stonecrusher: and my axe! - Lizzie Borden, to her Dad
Its_VeeBot: And we stan Sage
Foxmar320: *daughter
gualdhar: We stan a robust public transportation system, but this wasn't what I had in mind
Foxmar320:

Thefluffiestguineapig: NOPE
Its_VeeBot: Casino Night Zone here we goooo
Dog_of_Myth: Vegas baby!
h47hat: get overstimulated, boomer! 6-7
Foxmar320: Casinos are on like every block in Sonic's world
ImmortalLen: Ah yes, Metal Sonic's Pinball!
mtvcdm: The Sonic universe has long had a symbiotic relationship with its gigantic, nation-spanning casinos
patrick_stonecrusher: Ghostface Killa
Its_VeeBot: The Sonic universe takes place in Nevada, TIL
Foxmar320: I think Eggman owns all the casinos as well
Its_VeeBot: The Desert Bus is traveling through Sandopolis Zone
Strebenherz: wait, are the sonic rings vegas wedding rings?
BrowneePointz: More importantly
BrowneePointz: I think the Casinos are like...an entire Country
gualdhar: So, Monaco? Macau?
MacbethSeemsSus: I appreciate no one's even considered playing as Sonic
Defrost: Why is Tails a robot??
BrowneePointz: It's from Prime
Foxmar320: No one plays Sonic in Sonic Racing
Thefluffiestguineapig: Ichiban is quite a weird weird boy indeed
mtvcdm: And now Don't Call It San Francisco
gualdhar: Tails died in sonic adventure 3
Ranakel: It's 2025, you can't ask foxes why they're robots
gualdhar: Robo-tails replaced him
Its_VeeBot: Nine is from Sonic Prime. I have it on good authority that Sonic Prime is disappointing.
BrowneePointz: Alternate Universe Tails with 7 cybernetic extras
iris_of_ether: I think it's sad alternate reality Tails
patrick_stonecrusher: [SFII voice] Cyber Undercut!
BrowneePointz: It's why his name is Nine
Defrost: @Its_VeeBot it's ok all sonic's are
BrowneePointz: Nah
Its_VeeBot: Nah, not in the same way
BrowneePointz: Sonic Boom was a goated cartoon. and Sonic Underground
Foxmar320: Sonic Boom was great
Riandisa: Prime was interesting in premise, but kinda spun its wheels and wore out the concepts fast
BrowneePointz: Sonic Boom was *incredibly* funny
BrowneePointz: the writers on it were fantastic
Foxmar320: To bad the Boom game was bad
Its_VeeBot: Sonic Boom the cartoon is miles (prower) better than the game it shares a universe with
BrowneePointz: I will NEVER forget the scene where Sonic breaks his ankle and Eggman just makes fun of him in the funniest way before leaving
BrowneePointz: "See ya later Eggface. That's You. That's what you sound like" *exits*
Foxmar320: @BrowneePointz The Sonic fan is all I have to say
Its_VeeBot: To the point where I've heard some folks refer to the cartoon as Boom and the game as Rise of Lyric, as if to say "Nah, this is the legit Boom"
iris_of_ether: Which one has Eggman missing his wife?
Its_VeeBot: That's the Real-Time Fandub
MacbethSeemsSus: Garrett's?
Foxmar320: @iris_of_ether Thats a YT dub over of Sonic Adventure 2
BrowneePointz: That's a fandub of Adventure 2
Thefluffiestguineapig: In a capitalist society I tend to get ground down a lot
iris_of_ether: One thing I will say, though: there is a Sonic cookbook and it's got a legit chili recipe
Thefluffiestguineapig: Bent pyramids are generally mastabet tombs
Its_VeeBot: I should probably go back and watch more of Boom tbh
Its_VeeBot: I've seen, like, an episode
mtvcdm: they are defying the odds
BrowneePointz: Or Knuckles' "What, just because I'm a Meathead doesn't mean I can't be a feminist"
BrowneePointz: god I enjoy the writing on Sonic Boom
Ranakel: The "technology" is silent
Juliamon: on average, most non-game Sonic media is better than Sonic games
BrowneePointz: truuuuuuuuue
BrowneePointz: the Comics have been going strong for decades
Foxmar320: There are a few standout Sonic games that are really good, like Mania
BrowneePointz: I can't kill her, Eggman will kill me back!
Thefluffiestguineapig: Is she a child or is she a robot?
Foxmar320: But yeah the game quality is all over the place
BrowneePointz: both.
Juliamon: yes
mtvcdm: James and Cori need to beat Sage; Matt and Ian just focus on beating up Sage
Its_VeeBot: Wouldn't she technically be an AI?
BrowneePointz: He's Eggman's Daughter
BrowneePointz: and also an AI
BrowneePointz: I want to stress
mtvcdm: They are defying the odds!
Juliamon: *most* of Eggman's creations are, technically, AI
BrowneePointz: he EXPLICITLY calls her his Daughter and said she's his successor. He LOVES Sage
Thefluffiestguineapig: @BrowneePointz I am..........profoundly concerned about that description
Its_VeeBot: @Juliamon And in the case of Orbot and Cubot, just A
Its_VeeBot: No intelligence anywhere to be found
mtvcdm: As long as James and Cori lay off each other you should be okay
Foxmar320: Ghost incoming!
Thefluffiestguineapig: You mean it's easier to see who you won't be speaking to for the rest of the night at the party?
mtvcdm: Cori got there!
TheAinMAP:

Foxmar320: Great finish
Strebenherz: Beej: BUSSING walk then!
Its_VeeBot: Eggman walks over and beats the everloving shit out of Nine
BrowneePointz: He's from New Yoke City
Thefluffiestguineapig: Wait, is he just knock off Doc Oc?
BrowneePointz: he's a fake kitsune
Foxmar320: lol
Foxmar320: I think the splitscreen might be too much
BrowneePointz: basically
MacbethSeemsSus: Your dreams will be filled with "oooh, ahhh"
Foxmar320: Im just glad James got to Minecraft
BrowneePointz: Nine didn't have a Sonic to befriend him in his reality, so the bullying turned him into an edgelord that decided to fight back
