Sonic Generations Announced [PS3 / XBOX 360 / PC / 3DS] - No Wii Version Official

So, looking at the youtube video, at around 25 secs. in, Sonic lands on a platform and seems to start out slow, and then suddenly boosts to full speed.

Wait.... wait... I've only seen the Sonic cartoon a few times, but is that a fucking lady version of Robotnik, WITH a mustache? (Plus the huge boobs, which could be either man boobs or female boobs)

It's Mama Robotnik, bro

I wonder if her son ever gave her a mustache ride

I've contracted the diabetes. This is too sweet.

Modern Sonic, if his gameplay is anything like Colors -- then I love him too.

Classic Sonic, Jesus Christ I fucking love him already. Don't give him the homing attack. You said it in the description that it's going back to his roots.

"Whoah, you were me 20 years ago!"

"OH GOD MY EYES GOT GREEN HOW DID THAT HAPPEN."

"OH GOD I WAS FAT"

Sonic Generations ends with Modern Sonic realizing this was the event where he had the terrible accident that mutated him into the unfun boosting sliding beast he is today. Modern Sonic decides to spare Classic Sonic this fate, and erases the last 15 years of Sonic from history. Sega reboots the franchise. All is well.

And to think, you previously thought that the whole Elise thing was the most fucked up thing in the whole Sonic franchise.
 
So, after looking at the Joystiq impressions, maybe we shouldn't be too hasty about saying how amazing this game will be?

I'm going to pull myself back a bit. Thinking about it, even Black Knight looked good from its trailers. I'll wait for more impressions from players on how Sonic Generations compares to the likes of the other recent Sonic releases.
 
Going to rent this when it comes out, I'm excited to see the changes since Unleashed.

Hopefully no significant slowdown/framerate issues on ps3.

Oh my. So basically, new Sonic is dragging classic Sonic (and his image) through time, and in the end it's new Sonic himself who has to cut his own cord in order to save classic Sonic from the turmoil of the last 15 years and allow him to live this period as it always should have been.

I'm reminded of a certain Star Trek episode.
 
Looks like the game Sonic 4 was supposed to be.

Classic Sonic looks charming in 3D. Now ditch the new Sonic and all his shitty 3rd person on-rails levels and you might have something here.

LOL, that's just hilarious, how did I never see her before. Not only that, but fuck, I never realized how ugly the Robotnik family was. They're easily uglier than the Bighead family from Rocko's Modern Life, whom I always thought would end up being the ugliest characters of all time. I just don't know what to think anymore....


This makes me excited for a Sonic game again. I haven't had the slightest urge to buy a Sonic game in a long time, but I might just have to get this one.
 
There have also been a few concessions to the modern generation. Speed runs are actively encouraged, and hitting each checkpoint throws up a split time, telling the player how far down they are on their personal best time. Expect full online leaderboard functionality come the finished article.

Awesome.
 
If there's one good thing to say about Sonic games this gen, it's that they're graphically stunning. Great use of color (loved the pastels of Unleashed), subtle but effective depth of field, and I dig the unique "clay" style both Unleashed and this new one seem to share. As long as you're not the one playing, current-gen Sonic is AWESOME.

I can't wait to see this waterfall in motion.

See now this is something that I can actually look forward to instead of being tentative about.

Still not having an opinion either way until they show me more of the game though. Already looks better than Sonic 4 though.
 
I just noticed that at one point Modern Sonic rolled into a ball. That was odd; what purpose would it serve if he can speed boost through enemies?
 
1/2 of this game looks amazing.

The "Modern" sonic part looks like Super Saiyan Sonic minus the gold. Kind of like how Gohan was an "Unlocked" saiyan that was as powerful as a supersaiyan but minus the bleacher. (Or something like that.)


The Classic version looks like what I've been asking for since I was a kid. And I'm of drinking age now. I'm terribly excited

Now watch it be only 7 levels and Sega comes in with their per usual excuse "It's really 14 levels because you can play through them as Modern Sonic too!"
 
We could be looking at the second good Sonic game this generation... well, at least half a game.
Sega All-Stars Racing counts!

no one gives a shit about new sonic
 
The day has come when SEGA will (or attempt to) trump the fan-game community and feedback and Orioto artwork. This is...a unique day.

Read the thread title as Sonic Colors announced for PS3/360, here I was just buying it (didn't get around to last fall) in the event of all this news.

But let's get Sonic Colors HD as a CE bonus or preorder bonus for Generations.
 
What the fuck is going on?! Reality is turning upside down.
 
Oh god. 3D Classic Sonic looks perfect ;_;

So is it gonna be 3D for NuSonic and Sidescrolling for Classic Sonic?
 
After calming down, after seeing the hidden item box in the tree from the clip, like how it was in old Sonic, I have come across this secret trap Sega has sprung to make people's reality upside down. I don't know what to do with this, I don't want Sega to abuse me again.
 
Oh god. Just saw the video/interview with gameplay clips. Sonic Unleashed/Colours gameplay fopr NuSonic, classic Sonic Gameplay for Classic Sonic :D
Can't wait.
 
There's not a whole lot more that can be said for Classic Sonic (well, I guess it can never be overstated that OMG, SEGA CAME THROUGH) but I think Modern Sonic looks almost as good. As a whole, the game looks like so much fun.
 
Wait, there's no homing attack for classic Sonic right? Confirmed not to be in?

Can't look at trailer til I get home from work.

Well the game looks pretty, but then again so did Unleashed. Cautiously optimistic.

What? What is wrong with Unleashed? Unleashed was visually beautiful down to the defined world locales and detail and atmosphere and music. Gameplay was tight. Forgetting Werehog, which wasn't "broken", just obnoxious, it's the best 3D Sonic next to SA1/Colors.
