Zero Punctuation: Sonic Generations; AT LONG FREAKING LAST YAHTZEE

Long-awaited review of SG by Yahtzee of Zero Punctuation fame

Normally I enjoy his videos, even when he completely destroys a game I love(Eve Online, I'm looking at you in particular).
I don't find myself agreeing wholeheartedly with this review if I'm honest. The reviewer has been set against Sonic since he turned 3D and while isn't as bad as only reviewing the game after only completing one or two levels, I honestly don't think he's viewed it with an open mind.

I'll save my other thoughts for a later post, right now I just wanted to share this(supposedly) high profile review of a game that many of us have been playing for a while now, a game which the vast majority of us Sonic fans have been enjoying even in the long term.

I still can't use this.

Yahtzee reviewing a 3D Sonic game with an open mind is like asking him to review a new Mario game with an open mind... Lul.

Anyway, his review was enjoyable for what it was. I certainly laughed a few times, but I'm going to have to go back to his Unleashed review to get a better bead on his opinion for Unleashed style gameplay other than it being too much not-Genesis.

I didn't find Generations to be that good of a game, it is good, but not as great as everyone is saying.

Anyway, haven't seen anything from Yahtzee for a while, so I decided to watch the video.
His review is OK, you expect him to take some sort of dislike to a modern Sonic game as he is just that type.

Yep.
Guys, please don't dig out topics that are over a month old unless you have something extremely important to say on that matter.

*Checks start date*
Never noticed that, thought he was very late or something...
Anyway, I presume the topic will probably be locked now unless someone else has any interesting to say...

Uh, stop acting like a mod and report things instead? Responding to a topic you think is inappropriately bumped by keeping it bumped doesn't make a lick of sense.

Anyway, I'm keeping this topic open. It has potential left in it for discussion, and the reply in question was in line with the rest of the topic. xP
