| sonic generations ps3 cover: Speedrun: The Unauthorised History of Sonic The Hedgehog Julian Hazeldine, 2014 Sonic The Hedgehog was created to give Sega's Mega Drive a fighting chance against the market-dominating Nintendo. With Sega consoles now a distant memory, he's still running. But what gives the blue blur his staying power? Speedrun traces Sonic's entire history, from an artist's idle sketch to a multi-million pound videogame phenomenon. This book relives the highs; the hysteria of Sonic 2's-day and the dawn of the Dreamcast, and the lows; cancelled projects and Sega's near-bankruptcy. It also looks at the creative influences behind the hedgehog, and how a handful of minds have steered and directed his progress through the years. Whether your first adventure with Sonic was in the Green Hill Zone or on a smartphone, Speedrun is the definitive guide to gaming's fastest hero. |

There are always two sides to every story, though, so the second part of the book focuses on every one of the 50+ platformers starring Sonic the Hedgehog, Mario’s former rival. After this it’s the book’s main course: a huge 100-page section detailing 50 other iconic and notable platform games covering the entire history of gaming, from the days of the Atari 2600 and ZX Spectrum all the way up to the Nintendo Switch, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. Whether you’re a long-time veteran of platform gaming or a newcomer who wants to learn more about one of the most entertaining genres in video games, this is the perfect book for you.

| sonic generations ps3 cover: All Your Base Are Belong to Us Harold Goldberg, 2011-04-05 Through the stories of gaming's greatest innovations and most beloved creations, journalist Harold Goldberg captures the creativity, controversy--and passion--behind the videogame's meteoric rise to the top of the pop-culture pantheon. Over the last fifty years, video games have grown from curiosities to fads to trends to one of the world's most popular forms of mass entertainment. But as the gaming industry grows in numerous directions and everyone talks about the advance of the moment, few explore and seek to understand the forces behind this profound evolution. How did we get from Space Invaders to Grand Theft Auto? How exactly did gaming become a $50 billion industry and a dominant pop culture form? What are the stories, the people, the innovations, and the fascinations behind this incredible growth? Through extensive interviews with gaming's greatest innovators, both its icons and those unfairly forgotten by history, All Your Base Are Belong To Us sets out to answer these questions, exposing the creativity, odd theories--and passion--behind the twenty-first century's fastest-growing medium. Go inside the creation of: Grand Theft Auto * World of Warcraft * Bioshock * Kings Quest * Bejeweled * Madden Football * Super Mario Brothers * Myst * Pong * Donkey Kong * Crash Bandicoot * The 7th Guest * Tetris * Shadow Complex * Everquest * The Sims * And many more! |

| sonic generations ps3 cover: Sonichu #0 C. C., 2005-03-24 Sonichu #0 is the first issue of Christian Weston Chandler's magnum opus. At this initial stage, the comic was almost entirely about Sonichu and Rosechu, although bits of Chris's life still managed to find their way in.The hand-drawn premiere issue is a special zero issue. In the comics industry, zero issues are used as either a sales-enhancing gimmick (Image Comics is a notable user of this) or a special preview of work that will not truly begin until issue #1. Given that it previews nothing, which one Chris was going for is probably the former, though given that it's not legally able to be sold, it fails even that.The comic consists of Sonichu's first three adventures. In Sonichu's Origin, the core cast of the series is introduced as Sonichu and Rosechu are created. Then, in Genesis of the Lovehogs, the two protagonists meet and immediately fall in love. Finally, in Sonichu vs. Naitsirhc, our yellow hero does battle with his first real villain, who but foreshadows the challenges awaiting the hedgehogs in the following issue. Bonus material in Sonichu #0 includes various advertisements for imaginary Sonichu products, classic Sonichu comic strips drawn outside of the narrative of the main comic book, and the first Sub-Episode. |

| sonic generations ps3 cover: Générations Sonic Benjamin Benoît, 2018-12-06 Retour sur Sonic, le plus célèbre hérisson bleu ! Rival éternel de Mario, l'icône du constructeur japonais Nintendo, Sonic n'a pas connu un parcours aussi flamboyant que son homologue moustachu. Aussi porte étendard d’un consolier (de l'époque) nippon, SEGA, le hérisson bleu le plus rapide de la planète a pourtant navigué entre gloire et déboire. Pour la première fois, un ouvrage complet reviendra donc sur son histoire, de ses origines jusqu'à nos jours pour son dernier titre Sonic Forces. Découvrez, dans cet ouvrage complet et documenté, l'histoire de Sonic, l'éternel rival de Mario. EXTRAIT Sonic le Hérisson représente une myriade de choses : un personnage, l’avatar de dizaines de jeux, un héros de dessins animés à la qualité variable, le cheval de Troie qui renverse l’industrie du jeu vidéo au tournant des années 1990, un fort sujet de nostalgie, l’une des cibles de moqueries préférées de la presse spécialisée, et même un curieux objet de culture de fans. Les vingt-cinq premières années de Sonic l’ont fait rebondir d’un média à un autre. Il est l’objet de commentaires et de discussions, réussissant à s’émanciper rapidement du statut de « bête rivale » de Mario imposée par le marché vidéoludique. Quinze ans après sa naissance, Sonic est la star déchue, laissé dans l’ombre. Son succès ne semble plus qu’un mirage lointain, impossible à reproduire. Pour toute une génération, il fut un modèle de réussite, d’inventivité, de conception et de plaisir de jeu. Ainsi, si l’on se penche sur l’histoire de cette icône, on se rend compte qu’elle est bien plus qu’un simple objet de discussion. Sonic le Hérisson s’avère avant tout la mascotte d’une entreprise qui a, durant un temps, conquis sa propre industrie, au terme d’une collaboration entre Orient et Occident. Et ce, il y a plus de soixante-dix ans, dans des conditions qui, elles aussi, sont ironiques. À PROPOS DE L'AUTEUR « Indépendant de corps et d’esprit. » Une manière polie de dire : « Il est bizarre, mais c’est pour ça qu’on l’aime. » Né en plein été 1990 et après environ vingt ans d’études – dont du droit, un master de lettres et un autre de journalisme numérique –, Benjamin Benoît s’obstine à intégrer, à pas de loup, une profession moribonde : c’est décidé, il sera journaliste. Passé par le Journal du Japon où il fait ses premières armes, puis par Le Figaro, L’Express, il travaillait encore pour Le Monde quand les planètes se sont alignées. On peut aussi le lire dans Libération, Numerama, le Journal du Geek et l’entendre dans Les Croissants pour une expérience sensorielle complète. Ses dominantes : le high-tech, le grand éventail des cultures et des sons. Un jour, peut-être, il cultivera ce petit goût pour le judiciaire. Il possède ses mots fétiches, comme « prescriptif », « débauche » ou... « fétiche » ! S’il a l’air d’un zombie le jour, c’est parce que la nuit, il devient « Super-Fac-De-Lettres » et il rappelle à tout le monde ce que « positivisme » veut vraiment dire. Son anxiolytique alpha ? Parler devant un micro en direct. Passionné de radio, de podcasts et de musique, il a mené plusieurs projets dont le plus important a été la co-production du podcast mensuel de pop-culture japonaise, LOLJAPON. Vous y remarquerez son goût pour les longs formats, le grand n’importe quoi à peu près maîtrisé et une synthèse de tout ce qui constitue sa vie : les cultures de niche, la culture Internet, la culture otaku – pas toujours la plus reluisante ou mainstream – et les jeux vidéo. Toujours un casque vissé sur la tête, il vit dans l’UGC le plus proche de chez lui. Il n’est pas très fort pour regarder les gens dans les yeux ni pour parler de lui à la troisième personne. Un jour, il arrivera à passer une journée sans écran. Un jour... |

| sonic generations ps3 cover: Contemporary Research on Intertextuality in Video Games Duret, Christophe, Pons, Christian-Marie, 2016-06-16 Culture is dependent upon intertextuality to fuel the consumption and production of new media. The notion of intertextuality has gone through many iterations, but what remains constant is its stalwart application to bring to light what audiences value through the marriages of disparate ideology and references. Videogames, in particular, have a longstanding tradition of weaving texts together in multimedia formats that interact directly with players. Contemporary Research on Intertextuality in Video Games brings together game scholars to analyze the impact of video games through the lenses of transmediality, intermediality, hypertextuality, architextuality, and paratextuality. Unique in its endeavor, this publication discusses the vast web of interconnected texts that feed into digital games and their players. This book is essential reading for game theorists, designers, sociologists, and researchers in the fields of communication sciences, literature, and media studies. |

| sonic generations ps3 cover: Post Memes Dan Bristow, Alfie Bown, 2019 Art-form, send-up, farce, ironic disarticulation, pastiche, propaganda, trololololol, mode of critique, mode of production, means of politicisation, even of subjectivation - memes are the inner currency of the internet's circulatory system. Independent of any one set value, memes are famously the mode of conveyance for the alt-right, the irony left, and the apoliticos alike, and they are impervious to many economic valuations: the attempts made in co-opting their discourse in advertising and big business have made little headway, and have usually been derailed by retaliative meming. POST MEMES: SEIZING THE MEMES OF PRODUCTION takes advantage of the meme's subversive adaptability and ripeness for a focused, in-depth study. Pulling together the interrogative forces of a raft of thinkers at the forefront of tech theory and media dissection, this collection of essays paves a way to articulating the semiotic fabric of the early 21st century's most prevalent means of content posting, and aims at the very seizing of the memes of production for the imagining and creation of new political horizons. With contributions from Scott and McKenzie Wark, Patricia Reed, Jay Owens, Thomas Hobson and Kaajal Modi, Dominic Pettman, Bogna M. Konior, and Eric Wilson, among others, this essay volume offers the freshest approaches available in the field of memes studies and inaugurates a new kind of writing about the newest manifestations of the written online. The book aims to become the go-to resource for all students and scholars of memes, and will be of the utmost interest to anyone interested in the internet's most viral phenomenon. ABOUT THE EDITORS ALFIE BOWN is the author of several books including The Playstation Dreamworld (Polity, 2017) and In the Event of Laughter: Psychoanalysis, Literature and Comedy (Bloomsbury, 2018). He is also a journalist for the Guardian, the Paris Review, and other outlets. DAN BRISTOW is a recovering academic, a bookseller, and author of Joyce and Lacan: Reading, Writing, and Psychoanalysis (Routledge, 2016) and 2001: A Space Odyssey and Lacanian Psychoanalytic Theory (Palgrave, 2017).

| sonic generations ps3 cover: The Better of the Bad J.J. Hensley, 2020-10-12 It’s 9:10 PM in the Chatham County Communications Center. The dispatchers stare at each other, afraid to move, afraid to breathe. One minute to go. Will tonight be the night? The clock on the wall changes. 9:11. A phone rings. The screens indicate the 9-1-1 call is coming from a blocked number. The dispatchers hope and pray it’s a coincidental call for service. Perhaps a car break-in or a bar fight. With all eyes on her, one dispatcher presses a button, puts the call on speaker for everyone to hear. “Chatham 9-1-1. What’s your emergency?” The distorted voice comes across the speaker. He gives the address. There will be a body at that location. That’s for certain. The killer dares the police to catch him and then, like before…he’s gone. Former Pittsburgh narcotics detective Trevor Galloway and new P.I. Bethany Nolan are enlisted to look into the case of the 9-1-1 Killer and the investigation takes an unexpected turn when Galloway suggests the murderer may be a first responder. Galloway is pushed to the limit as he wonders if his hallucinations are returning and if members of a drug gang that want him dead have tracked him to Savannah, Georgia. Galloway soon discovers he doesn’t trust the police. He doesn’t trust his client. He doesn’t even trust himself. Praise for THE BETTER OF THE BAD: “J.J. Hensley has pulled off an incredible feat: The Better of the Bad is a real rush with a gripping mystery at its heart. The Trevor Galloway series gets bigger, badder, and more energetic with every book.” —Nick Kolakowski, author of Boise Longpig Hunting Club and Maxine Unleashes Doomsday |
