Do they? Never knew that. I guess that’s why they’re appearing for free then

They bought rovio a few years back yeah Miku remains the only free dlc character they don’t own

Also I posted about this almost 2 years ago when it happened lmao but yeah they milked the hell out of it immediately With the Movie versions of Red and Chuck being added to Sonic Dash and Forces: Speed Battle (they’ve never been rerun since but maybe for this CrossWorlds collab or the third movie?) and there being sonic events for Angry Birds Friends Angry Birds Dream Blast and Angry Birds 2 later adding Red to Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble and letting Rovio develop Sonic Rumble Party

Of course, everybody knows Goro Majima is the best Sonic character. Majima truly is Everywhere.

I hate that they walked back from the broader DC universe with this game. TT were good at putting in the “Glup Shitto” characters that tickled the parts of my brain that remember things like Space Cabbie, Lady Cop and Resurrection Man.

DC really are huge cowards recently yeah only 5 sets that aren’t entirely Batman in the past EIGHT YEARS and three are still mainly focused on him :sob: hopefully now the daily bugle is off store shelves they make a daily planet set but I doubt it

Always have been. They need another Implosion to sort themselves out again, we need a revival of the Cancelled Continuity Cavalcade.

Yeah, that is right isn’t it. That is what it is like being a comics fan and then the Batman fends bend over backwards trying to tell you you are wrong for thinking he takes up oxygen.

All they would have to do is add the bronze globe to the top. I can totally believe the Daily Planet building can also be like the Flatiron Building.

Also are any of the Crazy Taxi drivers in that Sonic racer? Does my boy Axel and his 60 Eldorado show up?

True but I swear they become just that little bit more each year

Unfortunately no

Three slots left tho so Im guessing there’s room for Samba Axel and a jet (weird autocorrect lmao) set radio character

I thought it was getting better with the release of Superman shifting attention to him in synergy but then they fumbled it when the Absolute Universe came out. Sadly that being a brainchild of Scott Snyder, a dyed in the wool Batfam writer, means it just kind of set things back for pretty much everyone at the editorial and C Suite level even if being antithetical cosmologically to Superman was supposed to be the point of that universe exisiting.

(Sometimes I really hate the PS5 Game News Feed - companies do shit like this - do they really need to notify Injustice users?)

Bastards, they put him into Yakuza for crying out loud.

Oh I can settle for a JSR/JSF character.

At least it’s not multiversus

Nothing wrong with Multiversus, I could watch Ultra Instinct Shaggy slap the Caped Crusader around all day. In fact there are some great DC/Scooby-Doo crossovers across a lot of different media.

If I had the time I would love to track down one crossover they did that took the piss out of DC’s old team gimmick. A team of close confidants or family with a standout but somewhat detached leader and a lady character.

Like Rip and the Time Hunters, the Cave Carson Family, The Secret Six (original), the Suicide Squad (the Original), the Losers (the original, I guess the modern one as well), the Sea Devils, The Blackhawks and ect.
