OFFICIAL Sonic Generations Thread

Behold, my power.

It's blurry, but I got it on webcam. My time as I pass by the sign post (which was literally a second away, so I think the time is really 54 seconds because my stupid webcam is one of those countdown then take a pic things and I had to time it). But there you have it, under a minute.

Platinum'd Generations. 

You better S rank everything.

*Serious face*

Finally got my game, now as soon as my husband finished watching his Burn Notice season 3 DVDs then I can start playing. Kirby's done. Time for Sonic.kbaily

Sonic made this list along with Zelda and Mario and Modern Warfare and Battlefield 3 didn't? All is right with the universe.

"Two of the best selling games this year, didn't make the cut."

The fact Battlefield 3 made the top 20 but CoD still missed that makes it even more hilarious. I prefer Battlefield 3 over that expansion pack.

Ok well here's a few thoughts on my playing of it though all of you have beaten it now (chocolate's probably been checking my trophies lol).

Is it me or is it easier getting S ranks in modern Sonic levels?

I'm pleased that modern Sonic's levels after Green Hill aren't totally repeating Daytime Unleashed's "spam the dash button" gameplay and actually taking time to slow it down for platforming though the controls feel about the same as Colors which I find amusing that GT thought this game controlled so much better than Colors. Which goes to prove my point that shiny HD graphics seem to hide gameplay flaws for reviewers.

Cla$$ic Sonic does feel like he has some weight to him compared to Episode 4 Sonic. In that they are really trying to get that feel of momentum down. Though I would've liked him having a homing attack to make reaching some ledges easier.

Load times seem a bit long. Not 06 long but it loads a lot more at times than it should. Finish a stage...loading...switch Sonic's...loading and before and after stages. Maybe a patch or installing the game will fix this.

Sadly I've only gotten as far as Sky Sanctuary. My husband got Assasin's Creed Revalation and NHL 12 meaning the PS3 is being monopolized right now. THIS IS WHY I WANTED A WII VERSION SEGA!!! Might as well go get Skyward Sword to tide me over. My friend loaned me his copy of The Sly Collection which hasn't been touched yet either. Though I also just installed WoW: Cataclysm meaning I'll be as productive as a dead dog for the next couple months.

Aw....

Well on NHL 12, my husband is actually not one to buy a new EA installment year after year but the big seller on that for him was it had the Winter Cla$$ic with the dark blue Pens jersey. That and our friend Scott had the same game so they wanted to play together.

Has anyone had the chance to see the console version of the game in 3D yet?

Do we really need a 3D mode? In a Sonic game of all things where a hundred things are flying at you at 1,000 MPH?

If my TV had 3D hookup, I'd try it.

But I have nowhere near that kind of money.

No one needs a 3DTV. It's a waste.Soniczero1993

Nobody wants to sit in their living room wearing sunglasses looking like a tool to play video games. Sony's just so in love with it in hopes people will buy ANOTHER overpriced TV like everyone did for Blu Ray. It's just another gimmick. At least motion controls got lazy people off their fat asses and moving around.

Movie theaters like 3D for two reasons:

1. Let's the charge more for tickets
2. Pirates can't videotape a 3D movie.

Look at how pitful the 3DSes sales were despite this huge push of "Glasses Free 3D" because no one cares (Virtual Boy anyone). Nobody is buying Super Mario 3D for it's 3D visuals, whenever I play the store demo, I turn it off, I just want a Mario game with the Tankooi suit that plays well.

I will say that it's nice they made the original Sonic the Hedgehog game an unlockable extra in this but really at this point, we all probably own it on 6 other devices though for me, it kind of helps complete my Sega Sonic collection.

• I have Sonic 1 on this game now
• I downloaded Sonic 2 on PSN
• I downloaded Sonic 3 and Sonic 4 ep 1on my Wii
• I have Sonic CD on my Iphone

Guess I could complete this and download Sonic and Knuckles on Wiiware to link up with my Sonic 3.

Okay...how does anyone get a rank higher then a C on Act 1 of Radical Highway?Or S rank the Silver battle?

3DS version of course.

How the hell do I access the 30 Trial Mode to get the online trophy. Man it could stop me platiniuming the game.chocolate1325

You could also copy your save data to an sd card(or the like),delete the original data,try 30-second trial again,and if it works,get the trophy.(then delete that save and put your original save back in.)

The final option is buying the superior 360 version.
