Sonic Generations |OT| What Sonic can learn from Sonic

Is it wrong that Sonic Generations is actually one of my most anticipated games this year? I'm just as excited to get my hands on this as I am Uncharted 3. Bizarre.

This looks like the Sonic game I've been wanting for over a decade.

The inclusion of a PC version has fueled my interest. The thought of this game in 1080p 60fps is very appealing.

I agree, but is it even being released on the same day? Something about the PC version seems sketchy to me. I hope it is released on the same day and actually runs properly. I still have doubts that it will even be a good port.

I actually listened to some of the "demo tracks" on Youtube, out of curiosity. Very different sound, as expected, but what I didn't expect was the extremely slow tempo of the Sonic 2 tracks. They all sound much worse than what we got in the game.

Whoa! I liked the Mystic Cave demo version. Sounds more like you're in a dark jungle or something. It is a tad slower paced though.

Judging by the recommended specs, it's an extremely lazy port. Still, as long as it leads to decent modding opportunities it'll be the superior version.

I really hope the PC version works out great...but everywhere lists the date as Nov. 4th. As long as it runs as well as the console versions with no real problems, i'd be fine.

The rest of the music is starting to leak out.

Crisis City and Rooftop Run are criminally good, classic and modern alike.

Oh snap the end boss. I wont say more, this will be the Sonic game.

Didnt spoil the fight itself, just the opening scene. PC version better not have any messed up performance issues.

EDIT: lol wow you guys were right about the Sonic Colors style scenes poking fun at themselves. Now thats what i'm talking about.

I just saw the ending. Sega is such a troll :p
Just watched it too. Best trolls in the biz :LOL
 
Oh god, that pre final boss scene is glorious.

Edit:
"Nobody calls me that anymore" has to be the most hilarious way to handwave the Robotnik/Eggman name debate. :lol

Music is the furthest I'm going regarding spoilers, aside from the stages I've seen. No fucking way am I watching the ending or anymore of the cutscenes.

Edit: can someone link to the music? Can't find it myself.

Edit 2: in one word, how is the ending? Good or bad?

finally got around to trying out the demo and... woah, this is actual good! even the "modern" sonic stage was fun despite it all but playing itself. will likely pick up down the road. good job sega, it even looks nice!

while looking for the music i also watched the ending too ..i don't think sega was trolling just that they had an open mind (???)

Nah, they weren't trolling, because they probably seriously believe in Modern Sonic's words. Which is just way sadder than doing it as a troll :lol

Wow! Just saw the trailer and this looks...good??? A good Sonic game? Really???

The last one I played was Sonic & Knucles! (Yeah, I liked that!)

Tried the demo on that Sonic PSN and XBL episodic Sonic game and hated the controls. But I could totally see me buying this...if it was released digitally on the consoles!

I got the ost and


Holy shit so many songs. Chrome Gadget isn't one of them :( And they have the awful Splash Hill Zone song from Sonic 4 in its dying cats form. But there is a lot of remixes and original songs from various Sonic games, including the Advance games and spinoffs like 3D Blast. Amazing OST, seriously.

After 30 seconds it's fine. Intro is very shitty, though.

The celosw guy from the boss fight music link has most of the OST up on his youtube page.

The JP version is, yes.

However...
An arrangement of the US Bad Future Mix is present as well
