Fun fact: In August 30th 2015, Sega partnered up with Rovio Entertainment to make an event on each game featuring a crossover between Sonic and the Angry Birds franchise. Sonic can be playable in Angry Birds Epic, while The three main birds Red, Chuck and Bomb are playable characters in Sonic Dash. Unfortunately, it was for a limited time.

And on the 21st of February 2018, Sega partnered with Bandai Namico for a crossover with Pac-Man and again, was only available for a limited time.

I’ve always assumed Sonic 4 Episode 3 fizzled out as things evolved with SOA, Sega Networks & F2P etc. I guess it’s been long enough that it’s not relevant any more, but I was briefly asked if I would be interested in collaborating with Sega Studios Australia (Who did the Castle of Illusion remake) as a potential dev team to work on the third one. Sadly though, SSA were shut down, and Stealth and I worked on the Sonic 1 & 2 remasters in late 2012-2013. Of course, you never know, Sonic Team could one day decide Ep3 should happen, but Ken pretty much confirms my personal thoughts.

Thanks for the video! Was waiting for this part to come out. Unpopular fact from me: Despite Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric being considered one of the worst games in the franchise, it was the game that introduced me to the Sonic franchise. From that point on, I instantly got hooked onto Sonic the Hedgehog. Think that was weird? The Boom designs for the characters look cool. (IMO, VERY UNPOPULAR OPINION)

8:34 this is still a huge problem because few people who played it. Made mods of this on every moddable games. The modder of Friday Night Funkin' made one in that game and most people who made other mods are getting ignored by that and they were pretty upset because most of the good mods of FNF were underrated because of the Sonic.exe mod. 15:56 that gameplay in the background. There were a cancelled Sonic game that planned to used back in the 90's that was called Sonic X-Treme for Sega Saturn. It was cancelled due to Framerate issues, a lot of lack of delays, and 2 developers were having a fatal ill which they ended up leaving the studio. The game was planned to be released before Christmas but then got replaced by Sonic 3D Blast that was in development for the Genesis/MegaDrive that time

16:29 Sonic runners. One of the games that had the potential to be great. And frankly Gamesoft's version doesn't look good. I don't care what anyone else says, but the visuals are just awful. If I compared them, it's like looking at a cheap knock-off. Perhaps even the fan game Sonic Runners Reloaded looks better than this. Plus it's not an endless runner anymore. Why download this when the fans of the original game dusted it off and released it as Sonic Runners Revival.
