First off, I'd like to welcome the two newest members of the GHZ crew: big smile and Project Blue Gale. They seem to have pretty fast access to good stories, so we decided to put them on duty over at the news board. No need in having such talent go to waste.
Given that we're all giving a big sigh of relief that a port of Tails Adventures will probably be included in a port of Sonic Adventure shows that the Sonic gaming community is in quite a horrible slump at the moment. So I would imagine that it would be more productive to discuss the new Sonic anime, Sonic X, which debuted last Sunday morning on TV Tokyo in Japan. Most people, including myself, were pleasantly surprised with what we got. Virtually the only person who hated it was SuitCase, and why that guy doesn't hang out at Gamiko anymore is beyond me. Everyone enjoy the fast paced action blended with a great soundtrack now, because I'm pretty sure that 4Kids is going to pick this up and edit the whole thing to hell.
However, some nameless sources have provided me with some rather interesting information. It seems that the version of Sonic X that we're seeing now isn't what was originally intended. No, apparently the creatives started out with some much raunchier ideas for the show. Thanks to a few connections, I was able to get my hands on the script for the original pilot.
Though I can't provide a full and thourough translation, I've managed to make out a few of the more important bits which I will post here on the front page:
(Tails and Cream sit facing each other in a coffee shop)
: Well Cream, here we are. Just the way those delusioned fanfic authors want us.
: I don't know... are you sure we have to do this, Mr. Orange?
: I don't think we have much of a choice at this point.
: Oooh, I love you Pumpkin.
: And I love you Honey Bunny. Alright, everyone stay cool-- this is a robbery!
: Any of you fuckin' pricks move, and I'll execute every motherfuckin' last one of ya!
: You know, the funny thing about England, is all the little differences.
: Example.
: Well, in England you can get a box of Frosted Flakes... but they're not called Frosted Flakes.
: What are they called?
: Frosties.
: Frosties? Get the fuck outta here man!
: Does Sonic look like a bitch?
: Chao?
: I said does he look like a bitch?
: CHAO?
: A BITCH, MOTHERFUCKER, DOES HE LOOK LIKE ONE?
: CHAO! CHAO!
: Say "Chao" again! Go on, I dare you! I DOUBLE dare you!
: Well, looks like the spider's caught himself a couple of flies.
: Mmphmphmphmph!
: Mmphmph!
: Well, who do you think should go first?
: Ooh, the red one seems pretty fiesty. Let's give him a go.
: Mphpmph...MPHPMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!
: Oh yeah, you like that don't ya? DON'T YA?
: C'mon baby, we gotta get outta here.
: Where did you get this motorcycle from?
: Shadow.
: Who is Shadow?
: Shadow's dead, baby, Shadow's dead.
: Chris, do you see a sign on my house that says "Dead Fat Cat Storage"? Do you know why you don't see that sign in front of my house?
: Yeah yeah, I know: because your house ain't for storin' dead fat cats.
: Okay, look... I know a guy who can clean up shit like this in no time flat.
: "Pretty please, with sugar on top. Clean the fuckin' car."
I'll stick with the final version.
"My Grandma still plays videogames and she's 72. She can kick my ass in DoA 3... but she'd throw a bible at the TV and then burn it if she saw me playing [Dead or Alive X-Treme Beach Volleyball]." -- Project Blue Gale
