Sonic Generations

[The 100 Mega Shock]

This villian is using "time holes" to mess with time (any one want to take a guess at who it is...... Mephiles The Dark mabye?) and caused the past and present to coesist in one time. Look's like an epic story to me.

What makes you think anybody wants to revisit that awful game that came out 5 years ago? Everything about Colours was getting away from that embarrassing drivel, and I'm pretty sure SEGA and Sonic Team know that they'd never live down trying something like that again.

Hopefully they play this "time hole" stuff about as seriously as Colours - just make it a quick excuse to go back to old levels and characters.

When I saw the trailer. My face lit up from when the old school sonic came in. My friend that showed it to me saying "You're not seeing things there is two sonics in that trailer". I was like OMFG, I'm so getting that :D But Im not a big fan of the newer games of Sonic, But I am a fan of the older games of Sonic <3

6. Sonic Team and Dimps are co-developing the 3DS version.

Oh hey look some potential there. (They made Rush as well, one of the (imo anyways) better 'newer' sonic games, and did the daytime stage design of Unleased ie the better part of that game reportedly =p).

That and Escape from the City being a potential track = yay! Although what stage it plays on is a good question - it might not quite feel 'right' outside of the City Escape stage.

Silver's Theme remastered, herp a derp I don't even like Silver though but I like most of the music from Sonic 2006. *_*

There's a new soundtrack featuring SA2 songs but I don't believe they're remastered. :(

The good news: According to company statement, "Sonic Generations will be available for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and Nintendo 3DS system in November 2011."

!!! I'd like for Sega to not rush this game but yayyyyayyay. THE POWER OF TEAMWORK! Go Dimps and Sonic Team. :Q

Massive update, guys! This month's Nintendo Power issue features some massive tidbits on Sonic Generations. Check out the article + scans at The Sonic Stadium.

Notable content concerning plot and development:

Spoiler:

1. Beside launching on PS3 and XBOX360, Sonic Generations will also be featured on the Nintendo 3DS. This game will not appear on the Wii.

2. The 3Ds and HD-console versions are said to only share the iconic Green Hill zone. The rest of the zones will be unique to the handheld version and unique to the console versions. Would you buy both to play more stages from the past? :)

3. Therefore, Casino Night and Launch Base are exclusive zones to the 3DS version! They're from Sonic 2 and 3, so much love there. I also spy an old Eggman boss in the scans!

4. According to the quote, "A mysterious lifeform - which is a new enemy in the game - erased time and space, sending modern day Sonic back to the past," this new villain is not supposed to be Eggman. Maybe they're going the Sonic Adventure 1/2 route of Eggman trying to control a lifeform?

that mysterious lifeform might be mephiles reborn

What makes you think anybody wants to revisit that awful game that came out 5 years ago?



Think about it Mephiles wanted to erase time-space in Sonic 06 and sience Generations starts from teh Genesis Era (Sonic 1,2,3&K (Sonic Cd mabye))
Dreamcast Era (Sonic Adventure 1 and 2) (my made up eras) (mabye) GBA, DS/PSP, and Gamecube/PS2/Xbox Era (Sonic Advance 1,2 and 3, Sonic Heroes, Shadow's Game, Sonic Rush, Sonic Rush Adventure, Sonic Rivals 1 & 2) to the Modern Sonic Era: 3DS, Wii/360/PS3 Era ( Secret Rings, Black Knight, Unleashed, Colors/Colours)



Im not so shure because the Forgotton Characters like Bark, Bean, ect. would cut it in the end but if fans complain about that then they are stupid but the only character they should bring back is Nack/Fang.

and if you want to count the racing games too go ahead but NOT FREE RIDERS!

3. Therefore, Casino Night and Launch Base are exclusive zones to the 3DS version!

Oh wow. That was unexpected. I do hope there aren't just two or three zones per era though. Still wanting to see Hydrocity, I-

Why are Heroes Special Stages back?

"He first played through as classic Sonic who avoids the street almost entirely. Running and jumping around constructions areas and over rooftops. There's a more classic version of "Escape from the City" playing with lyrics. (NOTE: Both versions have a brand new remix. Modern version has extra new lyrics.)" article

The City Escape song is said to be in the demo. That's the trailer.. Waiting for footage of the gameplay. 'o'

INB4 TwilightBlade.

Edit: DAMMIT, TOO SLOW V___V

Yeah, admittedly the game does seem pretty decent. Maybe I'll flip a coin to see whether I'll buy it.

 

[A Pixy]

Oh.

GOOD.

In related news, I still say they should slow Modern Sonic down a bit. It makes the game too linear. You don't need to make him ultra fast to make him seem fast. They seem to have done that. And they widened the track. Better game design overall IMO. o3o

 

[bobandbill]

Please tell me City Escape will be in the 3ds version seeeing it has some exclusive stages. If not I will be very sad. ;_; (If it's for the wii that's okay but I'd rather it on the handheld).

I recognise some of the original stage bit sin there sjkdbkjifsnvjfdiuvndfsnvfsdivn or well what TB said.

OH MY SWEET BABY JESUS

CITY ESCAPE

a youtube version of classic in city escape...

@Pixy: Modern Sonic, as of Unleashed/Colors, has always been so boost-centric. If you're not into the modern gameplay, there's classic. Buttttt City Escape looks like it has some 3d platforming. x)

@bob: It's been confirmed that the 3DS version will have its own exclusive stages, except both will share Green Hill. Sega dodged questions about Sonic Generations port for WiiU. However, the PS3-Xbox versions feature 3D as well. It's hard to please everyone huh. :(

 

[bobandbill]

Boo, just watched extended versions of that video, and the guy confirmed the 3DS version will be having a different set of stages indeed. How very disappointing - let's be honest, city escape is the best stage of SA2:B and to have it only on the PS3/Xbox versions (when the game was also on GCN, a Nintendo console) is bleh - and I wouldn't be buying a brand new console (ones which are several years old now too) just to play different stages of one game. =|

So much for being excited about this news then, seems I miss out anyway. =| RAGE. Sure, I still can play SA2:B and it'd be hard for Generations to beat the original stage out but this is pretty disappointing news for someone without a PS3/Xbox. =|
