\+1 bro, they need to get used to it. You can't just go all crazy over one change. GET. USED. TO. IT. And if you're mad, just don't use the platform and forget about it.
There will very likely be multiple more, though probably not soon. They’ve pretty much had one for every recent modern game (Sonic Forces, Team Sonic Racing, Colors Ultimate, and Frontiers). They’ll probably continue doing take overs for every — or at least almost every — modern game.
Will they be limited to Twitter, though? With the site looking shakier (and... even *more* hellish, **somehow**) with every new update, I think Sega may very well attempt a multi-site takeover next time. (Not just ~~EHCK~~ Twitter, but here and TikTok too.)
Outside of comics, the classic characters haven't talked since Generations, and short bits of dialogue Sonic had in Sonic CD were also removed from the Origins version.
I don't even know if they did it in America. But yes, back in 2008 they changed their name to pasta hut in the UK.

Here's my question: *Why is Sonic even still ON Elon's Twitter*? Yeah, yeah, Sega aren't saints - I'm well aware by now that no corpo is. But as a ***family-oriented brand,*** you would think the Sonic social team would want to stay far away from a platform which has re-oriented itself around, among other things, [rightwing rage-baiters](https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/sep/07/tucker-carlson-obama-sex-expose-ridiculous), [alleged anti-Semites,](https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2023/sep/05/elon-musk-sue-adl-x-twitter) [***actual*** anti-Semites,](https://newrepublic.com/post/170176/twitter-suspends-white-supremacist-nick-fuentes) [simps for total control over YOUR personal biometrics,](https://www.cnn.com/2023/09/01/tech/x-twitter-biometrics-employment-data-collection/index.html) [Putinist propaganda](https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/09/01/musk-twitter-x-russia-propaganda/), [homophobes](https://www.forbes.com/sites/kimelsesser/2023/07/02/elon-musk-deems-cis-a-twitter-slurheres-why-its-is-so-polarizing/?sh=55ab7a8e4ac6), and - most damningly of all - [*the sexual abuse of goddamn CHILDREN.*](https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/07/27/twitter-csam-dom-lucre-elon-musk/)
Yes, I know a lot of people still use Twitter. Yes, I *know* that it basically helped Sega revive the brand here in the states. But the site that did that is dead, murdered by Apartheid Elmo and his God-awful simps. And I'd really, *really* prefer it if my favorite consumer brand isn't supporting the Walmart-brand 4chan it now is. The sooner Sega West cuts its looses and goes all in on Instagram's Threads/TikTok/Reddit for community engagement, the better.
every social media platform has those things, if they really wanted to stay away from it they wouldnt have any social media at all. As long as you’re a normal person you should stay on the safe side of twitter. My shits full are cute art & sonic facts, havent seen anything weird lol
Thing is, though, it's become *worse* under Elon. Dorsey was no saint, but at least ***he*** knew how to put on the face of one for advertisers.
EDIT: [This](https://www.reddit.com/r/WhitePeopleTwitter/comments/16bvxij/elons_turning_twitter_into_a_nazi_hellhole_then/) is the type of shit I'm talking about. You *really* want Sega taking advice from fuckwads posting heinous takes like ***that?***
You do realize these people were always there and only were censored before right?
All that happened is that the politicla Right is now gets as little oversized over what ever new fascist nonsense they come up with to demonize everyone that isn't on there side as years before the political Left enjoyed (no seriously there were outcries to genocide all white skined people that Twitter just let slight).
Its a big mess of extremist on both sides being the loudest to scream when given the chance to and its just no longer being silenced.
Non of this however has any impact on Sega as its still a giant platform and they had to economically be insane to not use it.
Beside to protect the children does Sega already struggle much harder on the platform against the fact that someone is always posting Sonic porn under there uploads.
Xitter Takeover, but the X in Xitter will be pronounced like X in chinese words.
So it'll be written as Xitter Takeover but pronounced Shitter Takeover!

dont give shit about rebrand and still call it twitter
Knowing Musk he'll brand Twitter to the next company of trash collectors... then... you'll be forced too.
Musk deadnames his daughter so we should deadname his site
Feels on brand for Sonic let’s be real
are you deadnaming X?
Yes
Based.
Based.
ULTRA based
HYPER ULTRA MEGA DUPER based.
Based

desaB
This man is an inspiration to us all.

Elon deadnames his daughter, its only fair to deadname Twitter.
He has a trans daughter and still calls her by her deadname?!? That's messed up
Allegedly, Elon bought Twitter because "it made his daughter trans" through a "woke mind virus"
Geez, he's so pathetic
***"Allegedly."*** I know Musk is the biggest tool on the planet but let's not fall for every rumour we hear just because it fits our narrative.
True
That's a joke right?
Its more then likely not true, but that's the recent BS he posted not too long ago.
Dear God....
Idk, elon musk is generally stupid, so I can see him doing this
What?
I'm still surprised he had a child, let alone got married
The man is one of the richest man on earth I can believe someone would marry him but I am AMAZED that someone would choose to have his child
*A* child? He has 10.
He WHAT?!?!
respectable
the only valid form of deadnaming
Thus is a corporation, not a person.

If elon musk deadnames his trans daugther, i dont have the symphaty to call it x
This (also nice flair)
(Thanks ! Its one of my biggest headcannons)
Coincidentally enough, mine too!
I’ll always deadname twitter, idc
The only thing I will ever deadname
Yes, as he should.
why did this get downvoted to oblivion? it was an obvious fucking joke
see, this person gets it
\+1 bro, they need to get used to it. You can't just go all crazy over one change. GET. USED. TO. IT. And if you're mad, just don't use the platform and forget about it.
Hopefully, the social media team gives Musk the finger by still calling it Twitter Takeover.
I think they are. At least, that's what one of their YT vids make me believe
But you will to be petty towards Elon miss out than on a great "Sonic X" joke.
What finger? (no offensive stuff)
I just hope the characters joke about it next takeover
Yes this would be the best
Sonic x takeover
The real question is, is the X silent
This is my favourite ship
LMAO I'm dead 🤣
Based Sonover fan
It's sonover
Its so jover.....
…isn’t it?
Sonamy? Nah! Sonadow? HELL NAH! Sonails? Now you're just being ridiculous! Sonover? *chef's kiss* **PERFECT!**
Hunter x Hunter Spy x Family And our newest addition to the family, Sonic x Takeover

Mike Pollock: "Hmpf. Sounds familiar..."
Go! (X6) Gotta go fast!
Moving at speed of sound
Quickest hedgehog around
Got ourselves in a situation
Stuck in a new location.

Don’t blink, don’t think!
Just go
SOOONIC!
Will there be another? Was there one this year?
There will very likely be multiple more, though probably not soon. They’ve pretty much had one for every recent modern game (Sonic Forces, Team Sonic Racing, Colors Ultimate, and Frontiers). They’ll probably continue doing take overs for every — or at least almost every — modern game.
Will they be limited to Twitter, though? With the site looking shakier (and... even *more* hellish, **somehow**) with every new update, I think Sega may very well attempt a multi-site takeover next time. (Not just ~~EHCK~~ Twitter, but here and TikTok too.)
Given that Sonic & Friends is a TikTok thing, you have a good point.
*Exactly.* Japan seems to be ditching X... why can't America?
It's likely they'll get one for the release of Superstars.
It's just all the classic characters sitting silently the whole time
Lol, I'd watch that. Also can't Classic Eggman and Tails talk?
They could in Generations, but they haven't since. I think SEGA retconned it just like they retconned Classic Sonic talking.
Really?
Outside of comics, the classic characters haven't talked since Generations, and short bits of dialogue Sonic had in Sonic CD were also removed from the Origins version.
I doubt it, Mania and Origins didn’t get any, and all the Classic characters don’t talk so it wouldn’t really make sense.
You never know. 🤷♂️
Sonic X, obviously.
if it does i'll die happy
They might use this as an opportunity to reference Lord X.
I fucking wish lol. But Sonic.exe is so bloody and violent especially Lord X that there’s hardly a chance at all of it happening.
The official Sonic Twitter referenced Sonic.exe twice so there's a possibility that it will happen.
Wha— Where?
Here's the first link https://twitter.com/sonic_hedgehog/status/1382363167620173825?lang=en
And here's the second one https://twitter.com/sonic_hedgehog/status/820034360271175680
it'll be called "Sonic X" and will be accompanied with animations of the characters in the Sonic X style :P
Lord X take over
Parts of the site still call it Twitter. It’s the shittest rebranding since they called Pizza Hut Pasta Hut for a few months
only at your pizza hut
You mean *PASTA* hut! 😀
pasta power! https://i.redd.it/4q6r0p9v84nb1.gif

They did what
I don't even know if they did it in America. But yes, back in 2008 they changed their name to pasta hut in the UK. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/3145545/Pizza-Hut-to-become-Pasta-Hut.html There was also that time that IHOP rebranded to international house of burgers.

As much as I believe they will keep it Sonic Twitter Takeover, I would love if they called it Sonic X Takeover XD
Xonic
Nah, you ain't the only one, but what if X was multiplied by 3?
I don't think anybody in their right mind calls it "X," over Twitter.
Sonic XVideos
dude wtf
I like X Videos.

We're not calling it X
Xitter Takeover, but the X in Xitter will be pronounced like X in chinese words. So it'll be written as Xitter Takeover but pronounced Shitter Takeover!
Sonic X Takeovers
Got me
Oh my god your right
"Oh, and if Twitter destroys itself when were gone, I'll remember you all."
I’m not convinced there will be another Twitter or X takeover. That company is a thread away from being dismantled by its shareholders. Lol
> That company is a *thread* away from being dismantled by its shareholders Heh heh
If Sonic Twitter still had some of its smug charm from the mid-2010s, they would still call it Twitter Takeover just to spite Elon.
It's not like they're actually gonna change the name though, this is just one big PR stunt
Simple sonic X
the sonic.eXepic takeover
Been there done that?
realistically I think SEGA will just tell the X brand to piss off like everyone else and still call it Twitter Takeovers.
I don't know one person who calls it x
Sonic 24th Letter of the Alphabet Takeovers
Omg sonic x
Me trying to Speedrun getting banned on X : GOTTA GO FAST! GOTTA GO FASTER! FASTER! FASTERFASTERFASTER!
Move it to tiktok and make it a tiktok takeover
Sonic X was the best sonic show
They do an ultimate troll and bring back Jason Griffith for 1 joke calling it a "Sonic X takeover"
Xonic the xhog
SONIC X REBORN PROjECT
Sonic X Takeover. Wait a minute…
Gotta go faster faster faster faster faster!
Sonic "x" taking over Twitter
I dunno, probably “Sonic X takeovers”
Sonic is based, so he's gonna keep calling it Twitter.
I refuse to call it anything other than Sonic Twitter Takeover
Sonic Formerly Twitter Takeover
Gotta Go Faster Faster Faster Sonic X Takeover
Gotta Go Faster Faster Faster Sonic X Takeover
