I... have some bad news about the legal system, too. If you will kindly look outside, uh, there are some angry people who would like to discuss this...

It’s not just the individual streamers that make money while using media they don’t own or have permission to use, Amazon is also taking their cut. In my eyes, this isn’t David vs. Goliath, it’s Goliath vs. Goliath with David caught in the crossfire. At some point, there will have to be a reckoning. When your little…

100% backwards from our legal system

Please dear godt let Apex be next.

Also if they wanna save Need for Speed, they need the next game to be Need for Speed x Burnout, and mash the two franchises together for a really fun time. 

I’d have sworn this one got released already as well, but I think I’m confusing them with the Dead Rising series which apparently has 4 (!) titles and counting.

I was today years old when I found out that this game still hasn’t come out yet lol

I read that all the way through and am now much dumber for it. Who can I sue over this? Is it you?

Everything is an extraordinary circumstance right now. Too much is happening that makes Sonic, Sega, or video game news, frankly, unimportant. Our community and our world demands better, but now does so to unsustainable extremes. And in that, TSSZ can no longer be the platform it should be. The decision has been made…

True. It often does seem like there’s no coming back from a mistake of any size. But straight up deleting the site skips a few steps. Maybe at least try apologizing first and see what happens.

Oooh, Snakmen Peopel. Truly a tragedy.

I’ll take a dumb joke from a fan site any day over corporations pretending to give a shit as an excuse to postpone their marketing strategies because people won’t be paying attention.

I know that when I’m depressed I tend to overreact to me doing something dumb by burning down bridges, so honestly I hope the owner of the site is doing ok.

yeah but have you compared a real life hate crime to the adventures of a cartoon hamster?

That tweet was tone deaf and misguided at the absolute best, But closing down your whole site? Man, that’s a wild call.

I don’t mean any shade, and I’m not speaking of all fans, obviously

huh, If I reacted like that every time i’ve said something dumb I’d have to burn my house down

That was a really bad take, but shutting down the site seems kind of ...extreme? Makes you wonder if they were kind of over being a *checks notes* Sonic News Site for over 20 years and that combined with the backlash made them realize that they were ready to move on. I noticed that they never apologized for that bad…

Personally, I love a warm empty box.

This reminds me how nice it was for Microsoft that they were just able to end up owning Gears like that. Think about it: Do zero work, end with famous IP.

Pretty cool! I would have to say that no one would ever confirm it, but with Tim Sweeney stating the reason for the sale to Microsoft was related to the cost of making the games, it seems entirely obvious that Epic was angling for a multi-console release or a timed exclusive for Gears 3.
