I know we have to let it go and wait for the GS review even if it is 50% sure its going to be worst......even that i will like to recall some of the comments made by IGN on the review

http://wii.ign.com/articles/766/766214p2.html

Sonic and the Secret Rings is my favorite entry into the franchise since its 2D roots. That's high praise for some, I'm quite certain. Bearing that in mind, if you really liked the Sonic Adventure titles for Dreamcast or GameCube, I think you will find much more to be excited about in this Wii-exclusive undertaking. I can tell you that the experience is more fun and more beautiful than any other – at least, as far as I'm concerned. But that being true, there are still flaws – big ones – and I'm less willing to tolerate and forgive them now that 3D games have fully evolved and we've seen exactly what great developers can do in the third dimension. Sonic Team has taken a giant step in the right direction here, and of that there is little doubt, which is why I hope that more time and attention goes into the camera system and level designs for the inevitable sequel.

I want to take moment to specifically explain the score. For me, Sonic and the Secret Rings offers moments of greatness where I find myself caught up in the intensity of the experience and, oppositely, moments where I want to pull my hair out or throw the Wii remote down because of imprecise control or insulting design choices. I think that some gamers, particularly diehard Sonic fans, will be able to get past these drawbacks and enjoy the great times, which are also in supply. However, for me it's really pretty simple. Call me harsh, but I don't believe you should be forced to deal with the bad to enjoy the good and hence, I've scored the game with that in mind.

I didnt hyped the game and i am not really looking forward to it but i am just trying to make clear that, even for the reviewer, the game its great even with the flaws......maybe the best since the 2D games

I will really like to wait for the GS review even if everyone tells me its gonna be worst

Good post, people forget that a 6.9 is practically a 7 right?

Don't think I'll get it for $50. I'll wait for a price drop.

That wont happen for a while will it? BTW how can you have so many posts and still only have a level 1? It makes no sense.

No, it probably won't happen for quite a while.

Sometimes, Gamespot's leveling deal freaks out and makes levels drop down to 1. I'm really level 20. It will probably show up tomorrow...

yes i just saw it :P that is what i was trying to point out from the IGN review......it actually explains that he gave too much importance on the flaws.....therefore i was hopping a better review from GS even if it only happens like once in a lifetime

In the IGN Sonic review I like the 'surprisigly-better-than-Gamecube graphics" part. Good to hear devs are stepping it up. I would love to buy Sonic, but I would also love to buy SSX. So not being one to buy two games in 8 days, I have to wait to how SSX turns out and decide.

P.S. Dont care about reviews, I will buy Super Paper Mario
