Sonic Generations |OT| What Sonic can learn from Sonic

This is going to sound strange, but is there any way to make this game run at 30 fps on PC rather than 60? I've been watching some videos of Unleashed and it really seems like a lot of the visual elements come together better with the lower framerate. Stuff like the way the DOF works with the lighting, framerate and blur effects make the game look like CGI at times!

Wait, really? I thought the option just completely disappears when you're on your last life?Box of Bunnies said:

That's what he means: it more or less is greyed out since you have no more lives to spare for the restart.Lucky Number Seven Force said:

Ah, I thought he meant it was visible, but not selectable.spindashing said:

Long time no see!
Also, if he's not aware, you get closer by diving with the X button when freefalling, or whichever is your boost button.

Yeah, for some reason motion blur is not that noticeable (dramatic?) when running at 60fps on all the games I've played. Download Dxtory, you can cap pretty much any game to 30fps with it. (SSFIVAE looks weird, hehe)
Cinematic angular graphics yo. Did I say it right?

Yeah, would've been awesome - Classic level could've had Sonic 3 Ice Cap music ;_;
You should check out some other Unleashed day levels, they're all very easy on the eye.

Yeah, it's the entire Backbone/Digital Extremes XBLA port of Sonic 1.
Which means awful sound quality (the spin sound literally hurts my ears), gameplay that occasionally hitches up at random intervals, no cheat codes, etc.

SONIC WILL BE IN THE MACY'S THANKSGIVING DAY PARADE THIS YEAR. This marks his second appearance!
But this time:
Compare to (1993):
FLOAT RUINED. NEW FLOAT IS A DOUCHE. GREEN EYES. HENTAI QUILLS. ETC.

Not really a fan of the Classic Chemical Plant remix myself, but I really like the Modern one.

For me the bar-none hardest on was Modern City Escape, where you had to hit two ramps on the snowboard and then be going at just the perfect speed AND be straight and lined up with the ring. That sucked.

Just started playing this and WTF is up with the stupid outer world and challenges bullshit 
I thought this was going to be classic 2D Sonic with the option to play the classic vs new version+outer world stuff/challenges. I just wanted the classic old school Genesis Sonic structure. The 2D old school Sonic levels are brilliant, everything else sucks so far(about half way through)

You could think of those "challenges" as different acts. But, they are optional. You only have to do one for each level to progress.mr stroke said:Just started playing this and WTF is up with the stupid outer world and challenges bullshit

And the hub world isn't bad at all. In comparison to other hub worlds in Sonic games, this one is the least obnoxious and more to the point.

That balloon looks a lot greater than I thought it would.
I wonder if there will ever be a day when bitching and moaning over "modern sonic" comes to an end.

I like the new float design. Reminds me of Sonic 3's design, actually.

I also like the new float design. It looks really nice from the other perspective.

Damn why are the cut scenes so low res? I never thought that a Sonic game would fill a DVD to the point that heavy video compression would be needed.

So I have this weird, non-game breaking bug on the PC.
Whenever I do a mission, the font for the level's name and the "Now Loading" on the loading screen get all garbled and almost look like wingdings or something.
It's so trivial and minor I don't really care, just wondering if anyone else has had that happen?

The float looks great. (Hopefully no one gets hurt this time... I remember the Sonic & Barney floats being pretty problematic)

wow at the 360 version, sank a few hours into it and damn I just can't get along well with the 30fps now after playing the pc version, also the screen to me looks lower then 720p, real blocky and chunky outlines.
None the less, #1 on speed highway
but only just, the 360 version plays different to the point where some of my sneaky boost points are flat out not working.

16:10 resolutions for computer screens have been on the way out for years now so you really shouldn't be that surprised a modern day PC game doens't have immediate support for your slightly-obscure set upAnony said:

The reason you think this is because Film and television both run at 30 fps, especially animation, which is almost exclusively 24 fps. For a comparison at home, run any cg animated movie on 60hertz mode or smoothing mode or whatever on your HDTV. It will look really weird and cheap, or like a realtime videogame cutscene. Live action at 60fps will almost always have a 'soap opera' effect or cheapened look aswell. Bringing your framerate down brings it closer to the feel of a cg film.Wonko_C said:
Just finished the 360 version, getting every achivement (1000/1000). What a great game, my favorite Sonic game since S&K! If Sega has any brains in their heads, they'll make a sequel ASAP. I'd probably give this game a perfect score if not for.....
THAT FUCKING GOD AWFUL LAST BOSS!@#
Seriously, what a way to ruin a near perfect game. The controls are downright horrendus, you can't see debris until they smack you in the face, switching to classic Sonic is basically pointless, and the boost is wholely inconsistant. This is probably the worst final boss fight I've ever had to play, it's almost like it's from a different game considering how great the game is before the final boss.
Outside that terrible final boss, I loved this game. Easily my favorite modern Sonic game yet. Get to work on that sequel Sega!

New Sonic balloon should have been Sonic Adventure/Generations trick finish pose
That should be new standard Sonic
Just full on 90s/00s teenage douchebag attitude.
WHOO, 360 version came in the mail today. And uh... well, that's about it. *back to PC version*

Have you played Colors? I'm wondering because a lot of people here are saying that they liked Colors better. I don't own a Wii so I haven't tried it yet, but would like to hear a different opinion on Generations vs Colors unless it's no contest that Colors is the superior game.ryan13ts said:
