This quick look was much better than what I was hoping for! Dan-Vinny-Alex are an awesome trio! As soulless as these games are, it does have its moments like Wario riding on a horse and having Peach be the MVP of a Rugby match.

Oh and considering that this other Sonic Team developed game has Brazilian music in it, seems like a missed opportunity to not include Samba De Amigo characters into this game.

Love Vinny trying to pick Dan's brain by asking the HARD QUESTIONS we all face.

Loved the conversations in this.

If someone doesn't make a cartoon out of Vinnies Mario and luigis car bit, it'll be a real shame.

I knew that entire bottom sonic row instantly. Sonic 2006 is a radiant dumpster fire that I can never look away from, and it has damaged me in ways I'm only beginning to understand.

also I played knuckles chaotix

Controversial to bring Dan out east to replace Austin, but it works.

"You can go fuck off down a pipe" is a great line.

Wait, is Rosalina only available in one event? I'm out.

Not that I was in to start with, but... y'know. C'mon.

I am very upset that I know Cubot is from Sonic Boom.

I think I'm more upset because I know who Vector is.

Why isn't this filed under Quick Looks on the site? I saw a bit of it in the Best of Giant Bomb and had to track it down!

Obviously Pauline and Jumpman are Mario's parents.

It saddens me greatly that I share a first name with a hedgehog character from the worst Sonic game ever made (2006). :(
