Big the Cat

In the game.

And Big the Cat.

Oh, hell yeah.

Can never forget Big the Cat.

And they had the Chao Garden section, which was basically just like a place for people to sit down.

and the thing is it was right next to the merch line the merch room and the room that was the sonic speed cafe those lines for both of them were so long they were spilling into the chow garden area And then it was also like, because they were so long, you couldn't even really tell what line you were in, frankly.

the game has a somewhat open world for- open, open hub world format, uh, with course-based levels, uh, sprinkled throughout the game as you go through the story and find those entrances or just go into the right area.

Uh, the player controls not only Sonic, but six characters in total, including Tails, Amy Rose, E-102 Gamma, Knuckles, and everyone's favorite guy, Big the Cat.

Okay.

More...

Your second recommendation, if, and you did tell me that you do, so if you like fishing, like you do-

Mm-hmm

... with Big the Cat, and thankfully it's grown on you-

Sure

And on launch day, it was number one on Electronics Boutique's Dreamcast chart.

You get six characters, Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Big the Cat, and a robot called Gamma, plus little pets called Chow you could raise on the memory card.

And the first level still does it for me, Lee, that run down the Emerald Coast Pier with a killer whale smashing through the boardwalk behind you.

It looked like nothing any of us had seen on a console before, even if Big the Cat's fishing sections tested everyone's patience.

Big was not the highlight.

No, its first console port was the GameCube in 2003 as Sonic Adventure DX.

We'll be back with another date from the calendar very soon.

Cheers, Mark.

I certainly can't.

We also do have Big the Cat on this list.

He's down at the 162 spot right above Dr. Mario Esquire.

Yeah.

I did sit and think about characters for a little bit, and I was like, I don't know.

maybe something from Sonic.

And I was like, well, I thought about maybe suggesting Big the Cat, but I was like, well, surely someone has done Big

the Cat

I hate when it evolves.

Well, it's like Big the Cat when it evolves.

Don't say that.

But it is.

Why not?

Because it has that big stupid face.

It's pretty similar to Big the Cat's face.

It is not.

I like them physical.

It's a variant cover with Big the Cat on the cover.

Dressed as Aquaman.
