Synergy

    So the messiah of the furry fanfiction hellmare warscape   I mean the worthy franchise Sonic the Hedgehog is getting a reboot in the form of an aggravated multimedia assault. No longer will there be a game based on a cartoon, or a cartoon based on a game, or a toyline based on something fun. Instead 2014 is gonna treat us to all of the above (possibly not the fun part) at pretty much the same time. All I can say is, planning out a franchise ahead of time like that can only go well. Remember Atlantis? That went over well. Right...? Right? Moving away from that clustershart, Amazon has acquired Double Helix, the fine folks that brought us the new Killer Instinct. Plus, with their highly anticipated Strider reboot on the way this year, what could go wrong? Let's look at some of the past releases of Double Helix Games LLC. 2008- Silent Hill Homecoming... let's just ignore that one and keep going. Oh, here we go, 2009- G... G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra. This is just a fluke, right? It's gotta be, because just two years later they released the-- the Green Lantern game. And uh, Battleship. Maybe my initial readings were off. As long as Amazon keeps their dicks out of licensed dreck, maybe there's a future (there definitely is) in major retailers owning studios. But for now, I'm just crossing my fingers we don't see an Amazon game, 52 episode show, and toyline this year. Let's save that for the people of real America- Japanese people who don't understand America.

It's normal to get that sinking feeling right about now
