Sonic Generations

Played this and thought it was terrible, could hardly get to grips with what was going on, then too fast at points then suddenly stopping as you hit a block in the wall. I'm a big sonic fan too (I even liked sonic adventure 1+2 a lot)
 
It does have potential, but i did think that classic Sonic would be more of the slow handling i was used to from the sega version but it's still good. At times i did find myself being dragged to enemies when i was jumping though.

Classic Sonic on City Escape


Modern Sonic on City Escape

I've never posted youtube clips on here before, so lets hope i've done it right!
 
The Sonic & Knuckles one looks staggeringly good. So frustrating that it's so simple to do yet Sonic Team fail to manage it. Sonic 2 HD remake has too much going on and too much of a dark atmosphere.

I wouldn't be surpised if the 'original members' who were involved in the creation of sonic classic series (sonic1,2,3, S&K) are no longer in the sonic team.

Afterall it has been 16-20 years since those games came to stage.

I have a feeling that sonic team is now filled with uncreative noobs who don't have much idea on how to make use of current advanced techniques efficiently to make the modern sonic games that provide a very high gaming experience ;)
 
I was initially excited about this, but then read some more. Sonic 1 style levels (WIN!), and Sonic adventure style 3d levels (FAIL!).

I know why the demo only contains a 2d style level. If they put in the Sonic Adventure style 3d levels people would not be praising it like they are.

Mixing the 2 game styles is a bad idea. Putting out a demo with only one of them in is even worse. I can only assume its because they know it wouldnt go down well.
 
Cannot wait for next friday now :D so close yet so far. I managed to get a CE ordered for my PS3 which I am really looking forward to getting.
 
I found the recent demo loads easier to play than the first one that popped up earlier in the year, so they must have done something to the game mechanics.

The 3D level felt VERY on-rails though, but was extremely pretty.
 
Ordered the standard edition for the 360 as I haven’t found a price for the CE yet. Also there is a second demo on XBL which was released today.
 
What i like about the game so far, from looking at the video's, is that the 3d sections this time maintain that sense of speed that the 2d versions used to have.
Cant wait! :)
 
The CE is pretty much sold out everywhere from my understanding. The new demo is pretty damm fine I have to say :)

I just like the fact that it has gone back to traditional sonic really nice an fast paced :D
