NO, you CAN pick up rings while boosting. The magnetism Sonic has is just really low compared to in SU so you have to actually run into them. ;-;

What we're talking about is the skill you can equip called Endless Boost. See, in this video the player is using the skill and running right into rings but not picking them up.

One of the things I disliked in this game was how slow Super Sonic seemed. When I used Super Sonic in stages I had gotten an S rank in, I could usually just make it up to an A. Even the invincibility isn't worth it for how much speed is sacrificed by the way Super Sonic floats around, it isn't at all like playing Super Sonic in Sonic 2 or Sonic 3 and Knuckles.

Regarding M-Super, I myself don't see the point of a flying boost that takes up more than 2 rings a second.

I do wonder why C-Super isn't all that fast, though. He almost went off the screen in Sonic 2 and 3&K...

I was extremely excited for the game, but somewhat glad I waited till Black Friday to pick it up for 20 bucks cheaper. It's a pretty fun game, but sadly, not worth the full $50.

My overall rating is that it was somewhat of a disappointment.

- Modern Sonic didn't give me that same rush of Speed like in Unleashed.
As in you can't hold X to win? Personally I thought the amount of speed was perfect.
- The levels offer little replay value.
Do sonic games ever? Besides, personally I think all the multiple paths make this game have the most replayablity
- Bosses were/became too easy and boring.
Agree with this one :V
- Modern Sonic had too much platforming, not enough speed.
Personally I thought they hit the perfect balance here. Unleashed had to much boost to win, Colors had to much platforming. Perhaps you're just ending up on the lower paths?
- Super Sonic added hardly any extra fun.
It's an optional feature. It's not quite as fun as I'd hoped, but it's a neat little extra.
- Too short. Beat the story in a mere 4 hours.
Agree here, though most Sonic games are :V
- Some segments were aggravating.
I was only frustrated during one part of Crisis city, but it was my fault anyways.
- Not motivated to do missions or gather Red Rings.
Red rings and missions unlock extras. Also it adds more to the game. You don't have to do them if you don't want.
- Minor glitches, such as double tap spikeballs or simply stopping in the middle of Boosting. Spindash also would stop short when I tried to use it.
Never happened to me.
- Some levels simply left a bad taste in my mouth. Like, "I'm never coming back here again," kinda taste.
Happened for me on Seaside Hill act 1
- Skills seemed pointless.
Really? I thought they were pretty neat. Added some cool little bonuses, and just gave some nice customization. Though once again, it's optional.

I'm pretty sure there's more. I'll continue to edit when I think of more. Thoughts anyone?

That seems stupid to me as well...

However, skills were pretty pointless indeed, especially since they couldn't be used in Bosses or Challenges. Sure, they make it easier, but that's what they're there for...

No, as in the boost seemed weaker. It's a shame that all kids do nowadays to refer to Unleashed as 'Boost To Win' or w/e. You got your platforming from Werehog. Shaddap. >:V

"Nope, always hit the upper paths. A few levels did have a good blend IMO."

Seeing as your mainly stuck to using him on final straightaways while you watch your ring count hopelessly drop in front of your very eyes, not very fun. Even the normal ring count goes down too fast.

My first runs of Seaside Hill and Planet Wisp were absolutely horrific. I was frustrated on Crisis City today trying to work on my Speed Run and collect Red Rings

If it weren't for achievements, I probably wouldn't

They should just be accessible in more areas than just stages

There are ABSOLUTELY NO camera controls in SG, which means it sucks majorly and glitches out more than Sonic 2006 does as a whole.
