How I'll be when Sonic Racing CrossWorlds is released:

Ha ha! Hopefully the control is as smooth as in Riders series.

I just hope the Extreme Gears are ridden and not driven like the cars.

Yeah, I looked at customer reviews of this Ashpalt game and it wasn't favourable. Rather pay-to-win.

To me it looks like the extreme gear's control is similar to the cars. I hope I'm wrong.

Asphalt 8 is still the best afterall.

Sounds like SpongeBob and TMNT coming to Sonic Racing CrossWorlds







https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5bCW0_6jg_c

The person who leaked screenshots and the title Sonic Racing CrossWorlds is back and this time they are promising the inclusion of both the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and SpongeBob Squarepants. While it does sound like an odd inclusion, SEGA does have a healthy business relationship with Paramount. Sonic Racing CrossWorlds is ...

I was wondering, will you be comparing the sales between Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds and Mario Kart World?

I have never seen a video game corporation so revered to the point of industrial divinity as Nintendo, become so reviled for their greed over the Switch 2.

I'm curious if Sega will finally surpass Nintendo once again.

To me it looks like the extreme gear's control is similar to the cars. I hope I'm wrong.

Me too. If they are driven like cars, then I'd feel it would be a cash-grab decision.

As someone who grew out of SpongeBob, the fact this is confirmed makes em feel that:

• Sonic Team has little integrity for what goes into Sonic CrossWorlds. The same ammount of integrity expected in their mobile games.
• That the nickelodeon characters will draw attention and limelight from Sonic characters in their own game.
• It just makes me feel old.

No, that would be hard.
Mario Kart is a system seller.
Many gamers pre-ordered Switch 2 just for Mario Kart alone.

Don't worry.
According to leak, the guest stars weren't just Spongebob, Avatar, TMNT, and Minecraft but also SEGA characters like NiGHTS and Reala.

I see. Fair enough. you seem to have the stats and facts for things.

True. Characters like Hatsune Miku. Ichiban Kasuga and Ren Amamiya has also been revealed.

And I understand that, primarily, it's still a kid's game over for adult Sonic fans. So makes sense for it to have cartoon characters to appeal to its audience. So I got over it now... dunno the same for Mario though given people are still putting MKWorld neck-to-neck with SR:CrossWorlds.

The new Mario Kart's roster is kinda weird for me ...
They are massive too but as you can see, only those who ever play/follow Mario would know the later half of them ...

True. With "cow" being the most popular so far.
