THE GAME

Gameplay: Sonic Generations aims to celebrate the franchise's 20th anniversary by taking the player across three major eras of its history: MegaDrive, Dreamcast, and Modern; level locations will be taken from various games throughout this timeline, and different locations will be present on the console and handheld versions. Both Modern Sonic and Classic Sonic will be playable in the same stages, each with their familiar repertoires and attitudes. Specifically, Classic Sonic will play primarily on a 2D plane and be armed with the Spin Dash and Spin Attack; Modern Sonic will retain his Unleashed move set and play in stages that automatically switch between a 2D and 3D perspective and level of control. Characters such as Tails, Knuckles, and Shadow will also be making appearances. 1

The 3DS version will differ in a few key ways. First, all levels sans Green Hill will be different. 2-player competitive mode will also be available for status points, and the game will also feature Street Pass.

Note how I said a little. At heart it's a kids game, sure, but at some point Sonic's voice would have to break right? Colours just happens to be the game where it happened.

Thanks for the demo size confirmation though, Shenzi. That's... a bit bigger than I was hoping for, but I do want to give it a try and see if Classic Sonic really plays as badly as you think he does. I've been making assumptions till now, so a little hard evidence would be great. xP


There was no maturing in Colors. I just can't see a voice being mature enough to be more mature than all the crap in that game. XD

Well, there was a lot of leaked info, but it also is in full HD and 3D, so it's a good size I guess. *needs 3D glasses*
Funnily enough, it also wouldn't set up 3D settings for me. It kept saying I needed a 3D capable TV... -_-

So I just got around to playing the demo, and the only complaint I have is that Spin Dash is insanely OP. I don't see what you guys are complaining about, the physics feel fine.

TIME TO REALLY EXPLODE!
Played the demo as well. I hadn't paid much attention to interviews or pretty much anything about Generations prior to doing so, so I didn't know there was an instant Spin Dash button. It's probably my favorite part of the game so far.

Classic's looking fine so far, physics-wise and all that. I wish his jump was a little bit longer, though. P:

Like I said Shenzi, on my hands on I didn't encounter any framerate issues myself on the demo they had SoS.

Seems to be what they released instead was badly optimised.


Looking at all the leaked info and FILES, I agree.

To which SEGA's thrown over the "nothing's confirmed" phrase yet. :V No, it isn't SEGA but you're not one to change so much anyway ;P

I never keep up with these things. Ah well. I plan on getting a PS3 before the end of the year, so yeah. I think Ill live. :D It just doesn't really make sense. Why the other two and not the console that had so many Sonic titles? Just find it odd.

I object to your claims
The Wii has less power than the other two systems - we'd have a repeat of Unleashed, where the Wii version was inferior to the 360/PS3 versions.

You guys got colors.

We get generations.

Deal with it B)

Besides, its better that they're focusing on this rather than splitting their resources in half and making a half-assed port.

I just see it as unfair to the kids who only have Wiis, and who's parents won't bother buying them a PS3 or XBOX360. Then again, they are getting a bit cheaper aren't they?

Edit: Also, I didn't see anything wrong with the Wii version of Unleashed. It seemed fine to me. :P

The Wii version has different stage designs, more Werehog levels, no Tornado levels, small maps instead of full-blown hub worlds, and is completly lacking Empire City.

Oh my. Well, when you put it that way. The Wii version certainly did suck. I missed out. :(
