I thought I'd be annoyed but damn, some of those answers are hilarious

 

[Doffen]

These are golden!

 

[MikeMyers]

give this man a raise
I just read some more tweets and I am dying of laughter

I hope Sega keeps him around. He's great.

 

[ricelord]

Another gem

[mStudios]

Whoever is running the Sonic the Hedgehog twitter is hilarious, self-aware, and a saint. Cuz you know he gets a LOT of just bullshit drive-by hate tweets every day, but he/she rolls with it

hahahaha, this is gold

 

[Glowsquid]

It has to be Ruby Eclipse - not a coincidence that he came back just when Sonic's Twitter started to blow up.

Ah, RubyEclipse. Good to know he's back.

I'm not familliar with the deep lores of Sega's community managers. Did that guy do similarly outrageous PR things before?

 

[RiderKairuu]

This is amazing!

 

[ShinMaruku]

There is a reason why a protein named after Sonic the hedgehog.

 

[Soulflarz]

RubyEclipse is back!

 

[Nachos]

OP forgot the best one.

I had it; I'm just posting on my phone and wanted to get my bearings with all the BB code.

 

[Rewrite]

Hilarious tweets.

 

[bananafactory]

Who ever is running the account is definitely a GAF user

[nikos]

Amazing. Following and now want to play Sonic.

 

[Miker]

I had it; I'm just posting on my phone and wanted to get my bearings with all the BB code.

My bad. Thanks for compiling them in the OP, I didn't realize that there were so many.

 

[devonodev]

I was disappointed when the last person left, but they've replaced them with someone even better haha

 

[AzureTranquility95]

I'm not familliar with the deep lores of Sega's community managers. Did that guy do similarly outrageous PR things before?

I remember him being pretty prominent during Sonic Generations' pre-release. Possible he may have even been a factor towards making it one of the best 3D Sonic games ever made.

Any coincidence Lost World was a slight decline after he was already fired?

 

[Andrefpvs]

I believe it's Aaron Webber/Ruby Eclipse and that's why. He left but now he's back at Sega. He's hilarious.

This is great news!

 

[Crocodile]

Gotta admit, a lot of these are pretty funny

Ha, forgot about Sterling and Colors.

What's this about?

 

[MillionStabs]

These are all brilliant.
He's also tweeting the Pumpkin Hill rap 10/10 100/100

 

[Lights and Waves]

This is amazing.

 

[Nanashrew]

Gotta admit, a lot of these are pretty funny



What's this about?

Jim Sterling reviewed the game really low but Sega PR is not afraid to make some jabs because both Jim and Sega (or in this case RubyEclipse) know how to take a joke.

 

[BatDan]

Gotta admit, a lot of these are pretty funny



What's this about?

Jim Sterling gave Sonic Colors a 4.5/10, despite everyone else praising the game.

 

[HUELEN10]

Aaron, make them make Sonic Unleashed 2 already/have my children.


Seriously though, welcome back.

 

[SpikedGunner]

I remember him being pretty prominent during Sonic Generations' pre-release. Possible he may have even been a factor towards making it one of the best 3D Sonic games ever made.

well he left shortly before the game's release, but man it's great seeing him back.

 

[Fat4all]

What's this about?

Jim was one of the few reviewers to give Sonic Colors an overtly negative review at it's release.

 

[Ran rp]

make her/him ceo

 

[mgs2master2]

this twitter is amazing.

 

[Seven Force]

Haha, RubyEclipse is running the account? What a champ, good to see him around again.

 

[hughesta]

this is the greatest thing I've seen in a while. Whoever this is, I hope they never stop.

 

[ciddative]

This is GOLD

How can I love this person more?

Please tell me

 

[mazpratim]

Pretty sure it was a confirmed /v/ user running the account

 

[Plinko]

This guy should immediately be given the job of writing the script for the next game.

 

[Poodlestrike]

On fucking point.

 

[Deleted member 74300]

well he left shortly before the game's release, but man it's great seeing him back.

I would have done the same after that game.

 

[thefit]

I have no Idea what is going on in any of those tweets. Also, Sonic tweets better than Sonic games.

 

[MrSaturn99]

This is incredible.

 

[mrmickfran]

Move over Kamiya, the best Twitter account has arrived.

 

[Jim Sterling]

I gotta admit, they're slayin' it.

 

[BatDan]

Move over Kamiya, the best Twitter account has arrived.

Kamiya vs. Sonic
I'd play it.

 

[Permanently A]

Fired in 3... 2...

 

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

lol wow that's pretty funny. I wonder how long this will last...

 

[Xamtheking]

I gotta admit, they're slayin' it.

Woah
You're like
Internet famous

 

[Seik]

Fired in 3... 2...

I don't think so, these are awesome answers, not shameful or disrespectful to anything or anyone.

 

[fernoca]

In a way, is not surprising. There's a lot of negative feedback "on the internets", after the releaae and quality of Sonic Boom and the recent announcement of a new Sonic Boom.

So, getting someone to try to make things fun and better is not unusual in PR.

 

[Empyrean Heaven]

Is he a fan or does he hate it? Don't really watch his stuff often

He considers it the worst Sonic game of the 3D era. Yes. Worse than Sonic Boom. Worse than Unleashed. Worse than 2006.

Note: I should mention, it's not because it's bad, but because it was hyped to FINALLY be the return to form for the franchise, and it dropped the ball. This is in contrast to most reviewers and fans who consider it the best Sonic game of the 3D era.

 

[mrmickfran]

Kamiya vs. Sonic
I'd play it.

"When will Sonic Adventure 3 be announced?"
"Next week, in game magazines."

 

[AzureTranquility95]

He considers it the worst Sonic game of the 3D era. Yes. Worse than Sonic Boom. Worse than Unleashed. Worse than 2006.

To be fair, Colors is inferior to Generations.

But by god, worse than 06 and Boom? How does one even arrive at such a conclusion?

 

[sibarraz]

I think that we are really missing the point in this thread, does Sonic really had communists friends?

 

[G0523]

RubyEclipse! I haven't heard that name in forever! Good to see he's having fun.

 

[Regiruler]

Is he a fan or does he hate it? Don't really watch his stuff often

He gave it a 5, something I'll never forgive him for.
