Sonic's always been popular here, and the X360 and even PS 3 are more popular here than in Japan, where HD gaming hasn't caught on, so I don't doubt we were the intended market. Speaking of which, I get the strong impression that this game was designed with what Sega thought the Xbox 360 audience in the US consisted of in mind. Some of the levels, like Crisis City and Kingdom Valley, were rather fun. I also enjoyed many of Sonic's levels, though the level design wasn't always straightforward and I got lost a few times. I did get a few game overs, but it wasn't that bad. Then again, watching them play had given me a good idea of what to expect from the game, including how twicthy the controls are, so I compensated pretty easily. All the many deaths those Something Awful LPers suffered didn't happen to me. I'd seen the infamous Let's Play by Something Awful and was expecting the worst. I decided I wanted to see how bad it really was. I bought Sonic The Hedgehog 2006 for the hell of it. "I've come to the conclusion that this is a very stupid idea." That's really all there is to say on the matter.Įdited 13th Oct '11 9:05:41 PM by Blueeyedrat Jeez, the things these people come up with.Īnyway, the puzzles are really fun, the story is intriguing, and the music is amazing. I'm gearing up for it by solving some of the user-made puzzles on ResearchNet. I enjoyed the research puzzles on this level. (There's an achievement for completing it with <2700 cycles I pulled it off with a third of that- 864.) "Challenge: KOHCTPYKTOP" is somewhat intimidating.Ītropos Station - The flip-flop! Such a small command, such massive potential. (Use only 2 reactors? Bleh.) My first attempt at "Gas Works Park" gave me a pleasantly low number of cycles. Hephaestus IV - Reactors with more/less bonders? I can/won't dig it, respectively. Sikutar - Fusion! Yay? "Exploding Head Syndrome" was probably my first major stumbling block, but I finally completed that nuke. The achievement for "No Thanks Necessary" was simpler than I thought- I barely missed the mark on my first run, so I only had to alter one reactor. Interesting introduction to the boss levels, though.Īlkonost - Finally, something more recent. Nothing special, especially since I completed them a long time ago in the demo.ĭanopth - Also finished in the demo, so I don't remember much about this one either. This word means 'the scythe-bearing one.Been playing a whole lot of SpaceChem this past week or so. In all these instances, messor is a solid, literal translation of 'reaper.' If you want something more evocative, perhaps, you could try falciferum instead of messorem in the first set of translations, and falcifer instead of messor in the second. You can also replace non with other negators, such as minime ('not at all'), haud, or nullo modo ('by no means'), if you think they will sound (or look) better. For the sake of brevity, you can omit est. In Latin, this too has the force of a command. If you wish to avoid thinking about intended audience, you can instead use a passive expression that means 'The reaper is not to be/must not be feared': Messor non timendus est. In all three, messorem could be moved so that it's the last word instead of the second word.įor the latter case (audience = more than one person), the corresponding translations are Nolite messorem timere, Ne messorem timueritis, and Ne messorem timeatis.įor each audience, the three versions are interchangeable so you can go for the version that sounds – or, since a tattoo will be involved, looks – the best to you. Ne messorem timeas is also OK and would tend to make the expression somewhat impersonal ('One must not fear the fear'). A correct translation depends somewhat on whether the command is directed at one person (e.g., you, the bearer of the tattoo) or the world at large (e.g., those who see the tattoo).įor the former case (audience = one person), you could say Noli messorem timere or Ne messorem timueris. Neither is correct, and timetere isn't a real Latin word.
