In Australia here, it's night time, but maybe in other places, it's probably 2:00 in the morning.

I guess mine is all right. Quite simple, but it's decent.

To me the new layout is way better. There's more staff, such as having more icons in the forums and much more. You get used to it for sure. My friend said he liked the old layout better but after 10 minute on NG, he liked the new one.

Hate to get off topic, but are you able to edit your message if you make a mistake or something?

That song is so freakin annoying!

I guess that this ain't one of those fake stories to get attentions, through still...

Is there a link or anything? If there isn't, I'm just gonna believe that this is all made up.

Happy 16th Birthday Sonic the Hedgehog!

W00t!w00t!

A Bit of History:

In April 1990, Sega requested a game capable of selling over one million copies and a character to replace Alex Kidd as the company's mascot. Several character designs were submitted by its AM8 research & development department, including an armadillo (who was later developed into Mighty the Armadillo), a dog, an over-sized Theodore Roosevelt in pajamas (which would later be the basis of Doctor Eggman's design), and a rabbit (intended to use its extendible ears to collect objects; these aspects were later incorporated into Ristar). Eventually, Naoto Ōshima's spiky hedgehog, initially codenamed "Mr Needlemouse", was chosen as the new mascot. A group of fifteen started working on Sonic the Hedgehog, and renamed themselves Sonic Team. The game's soundtrack was composed by Masato Nakamura of the band Dreams Come True. Sega sponsored the group's "Wonder 3" tour, painting Sonic on the tour bus, distributing pamphlets advertising the game, and having footage of the game broadcast above stage prior to its release.

Sonic's precise age, weight, height and other physical characteristics vary depending on the continuity in which he appears and the style in which he is drawn. In the video games, Sonic's original design by Naoto Ohshima was quite short and childlike, with short quills, a round body and no visible irises. Artwork featuring this design and drawn by Akira Watanabe was displayed on the package artwork for Sonic the Hedgehog, and most subsequent Sonic video games featured similar designs. Beginning with Sonic Adventure in 1998, Sonic was redesigned by Yuji Uekawa as a taller character with longer legs and a less spherical body, longer and more drooping spikes, and green-colored eyes. Further subtle changes to the character's design have been made in subsequent games. Spin-off media such as comics and cartoons have featured variations on all these video game designs, with restrictions set by the standardized model sheets.

Sonic's cobalt blue pigmentation was chosen to match Sega's cobalt blue logo. One origin story was provided in a promotional comic for the original game featured in Disney Adventures, Garfield Magazine, and other children's periodicals, which was later elaborated upon in Mike Pattenden's Stay Sonic, a book about the character published in the UK.[13] This explanation, in which the shockwaves Sonic experienced when he first ran at supersonic speed turned him blue and streamlined his spikes, later became the basic origin for many subsequent UK publications such as Egmont Fleetway's Sonic the Comic.

Sonic's debut occurred in the 1991 platform game Sonic the Hedgehog for the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis, which also introduced his nemesis Doctor Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik. His sidekick Miles "Tails" Prower joined him in the game's 1992 sequel Sonic the Hedgehog 2, which also introduced Sonic's "Super Sonic" form and signature "spin-dash" move. Sonic CD released in 1993 introduced Sonic's self-proclaimed girlfriend Amy Rose, and his robotic doppelgänger Metal Sonic (although Sonic 2 also featured a robotic Sonic boss, often referred to as Mecha Sonic or Silver Sonic). As Sonic traveled through time to ensure a good future for the world. Sonic 3 and Sonic & Knuckles, both released in 1994, saw Sonic and Tails, battle Robotnik again, with the additional threat of Knuckles the Echidna, tricked by Robotnik into fighting Sonic.

Other two-dimensional platformers starring Sonic include Sonic Chaos (1993), Sonic Triple Trouble (1994), and Sonic the Hedgehog Pocket Adventure (1999). In 2001, 2D Sonic games started to move to Nintendo handheld platforms. These include Sonic Advance (2001), Sonic Advance 2 (2002), Sonic Advance 3 (2004) and Sonic Rush (2005). The sequel to Sonic Rush, known as Sonic Rush Adventure, will be released for the DS in the autumn of 2007. Also, a sequel to Sonic Rivals, Sonic Rivals 2, will be released for the PSP. An untitled Sonic RPG game will be released 2008 and will be developed by BioWare.

The first Sonic platform game in true 3D, Sonic Adventure (1998) was the original developer Sonic Team's return to the character for a major game. It featured Sonic returning from vacation to find the city of Station Square under attack by a new, very powerful foe named Chaos, under the control of Doctor Ivo Robotnik (now better known as Doctor Eggman). It introduced Sonic's Homing Attack as a standard move, included power-ups that awarded him extra abilities for the rest of the game, and featured interaction with non-playable characters and objects in 3D "Adventure" sequences, during which the game world could be freely explored. In addition to Sonic, who was given a full voice-over for the first time, five other major characters (Tails, Knuckles, Amy, E-102 Gamma and Big the Cat) were playable, plus Super Sonic. Sonic Adventure 2 (2001, on the 10th anniversary of the original 16-bit game) placed Sonic on-the-run from the military (G.U.N) after being mistaken for a new enemy, Shadow the Hedgehog. This was the first game where you could play as antagonists (Doctor Eggman, Shadow and Rouge the Bat). The game introduced a "grinding" gameplay aspect utilizing Soap shoes, which was retained in later 3D action games such as the team-based Sonic Heroes (2004) and the 15th anniversary title Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) which introduced the powerful being from the future, Silver the Hedgehog. A Wii game, Sonic and the Secret Rings, is the latest 3D Sonic game and the first one to feature Sonic as the only playable character in the main mode. There have been several collections including Sonic Mega Collection that included the classic Sonic games.

Sonic has also been featured in games of many genres other than 2D and 3D platform games. The first of these was a pinball game, Sonic Spinball (1993), which expanded upon the pinball sequences in the first two platform games. Sonic has also appeared in "2.5D" isometric platformers (Sonic Labyrinth and Sonic 3D Blast), racing games (Sonic Drift, Sonic R, Sonic Riders, and Sonic Rivals) and fighting games (Sonic the Fighters and Sonic Battle). A sequel to Sonic Riders may be currently in development. Sonic will be appearing with longtime mascot rival, Mario, in an official sports game called Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, which will be released on the Wii and Nintendo DS near the end of 2007.

Video games such as Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine (1993), Tails Adventures (1995), Knuckles Chaotix (1995) and Shadow the Hedgehog (2005) starred supporting characters of the Sonic series. Sonic has had cameo roles in some of them. The hedgehog has also made cameo appearances in numerous other Sega games such as Daytona USA and Christmas NiGHTS.

These drawings should be in the museum. They're a work of fine art.

There isn't much info on the game at all, but I think that there going to add WAY TOO MANY CHARACTERS!!! Hopefully they do better then Sonic Team.

But Sonic and the Secret rings was pretty cool

Death of eight people. 4000 had to evaluate their homes. Learn to read.

When somone is sarcastic, they might exaggerate to make the sarcasm a little more clear.

Well, you should exaggerate a bit more then. Paris Hilton actually acts like a two year old in fact.

Of course the editor wants to put big new on there, but it was said that there hasn't been a flood in NSW this bad since 30 years ago. They can put Paris on front page when she get AIDS.

Today when I got the daily Australian newspaper, guess what I saw on the front page? Paris Hilton crying about her 45 day sentence! WTF? There was a massive flood in NSW and there were eight casualties. The death of eight people is definitely more important then one bloody slut crying about a imprisonment that she should've done months ago. Paris is trying to get on the papers and putting her on front page will encourage her to do it again!

What do you think is more important? The fact that 4000 people have to evaluate their homes to go to dry land because of a massive flood? Or some blonde wining about a short imprisonment. Other people have to face the death penalty, but they don't shed a single tear, instead, they accept their fate rightfully and face it.

This may be good publicity, but there are better things then her that should be on page 1.

My favourite user is RupeeClock. For many reasons such as:
1. Making awesome flash movies
2. Being a clock
3. Looking after NG everywhere with proper reviews and hanging out in the bbs also.

Best Ng user there is... ever.

I would like to become a forum moderator.

Even through I don't really have experience, I know what is right or wrong in forums because I hang out around many forums, such as ign etc. I come from South Australia and would be able to be available on Friday night, Saturday night and Sunday midday. I've been banned a few times in NG for good reasons and I learnt from those mistakes.Obviously, it ain't easy being a moderator here and I haven't really posted over 1000 posts (No where near in fact), but I still know how to help people and clean up the dirt from the NG forum to make it a better place.

If you don't choose me, thanks for your time anyway

Can I be a mod? I like your site, but it's not my favorite, but hack. Being a mod would be awesome!

Personal record: 12 hours 36 minute 26 seconds 79 milliseconds

Happened to me too, but did you invite any kids to your house or anything? Cause that was why I had some weird picture in my house.
