I'm really looking forward to hear your thoughts about it than. I think you might be really surprised. One tip, don't spoil yourself too much

I have just seen a couple of fans disliking the game for not being a mindless boost game. I loled honestly. If you consider sonic adventure 2 as the best 3d game, which has a lot of emphasis on platforming. I think you will enjoy colors with a couple of gripes maybe.

Another so-so review http://gamestyle.com/reviews/1997/sonic-colours/

I find it funny how critics keep thinking of Sonic and Sega All-Stars racing as part of the Sonic series.

I am sure I will like the game, but after how Sonic 4 turned out so horrible I am not as certain.

Should be getting it sometime this week. Do not really care when I get it, just am tired of people spoiling so many details for me now. Kind of weird, I used to be the one who spoiled Sonic games for people!

When I get my copy of the game, the first thing I am doing is letting my mother play it without telling her anything that has happened with the series since the 90s (She does not know of any of the Shadow stuff for instance). Because she has not really played any kind of console videogame at all since like... 1995 I think it would be a good example of a child's first impression on the game. She is also a teacher, so she understands them better than probably everyone here.

I know that already sounds like a stupidly large amount of thought is being put into the eventual review I am going to make, but I know pretty much everything about the franchise now and I am too critical to details like "Sonic should not be able to swim".




...I also cannot wait for this game to be out already so we can just move on to talking about other SEGA games already.

You cant compare Sonic Colours to Sonic 4... I dont think any feelings you had towards 4 will relate to this game at all. Love it or hate it Sonic 4 is nothing like Sonic Colours.

The sales seem to be pretty bad... especially for a sonic game.

I think people are finally losing interest(general) from all previous games, the damage is starting to become more noticable. It's not fair, especially now sonic finally has a universally praised game.

I think sonic scares of people to buy their game again in a lot of ways. First the story which has been cringeworthy for some years and also gameplay flaws.

They will have to do something extraordinary with 20th's aniversary to win people back.

I mean it's not the final result... but still for sonic pretty bad compared to where he once stood.

Who is screaming? Cuz I ain't seeing nobody ;).

If that was aimed towards me. I meant for a sonic game, a character that used to be more popular than mickey mouse that is pretty bad. Sonic used to be on par with icons like mario, nowadays even sack boys from little big planet are more popular.

Some of us still view sonic in high regards ;)

Edit: But yeah, you do have a point. It's just one day.

I agree with CrazyTails.. Sonic's sales are terrible, both 'Soni Colors' and ' Sonic Free Riders' bombed.

Like I said in the chart article comments, not only it’s just first day sales, it’s quite possible that lots of stores didn’t even had the game on the release day.

Where I live (Portugal), the local store is only going to start selling it this thursday. .____.

Ah yes, I remember on the release date of Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing, three of my local GameStops didn't have the game, and one of them claimed the game was Wii only and the title was "Sonic Star Racer".

Haha.
Well, the store I went to check if Colours was available, they said that November 12 was the US release that and November 16 the European one, even though it's the other way. :>

Geez, boo-oo first day sales are terrible..

Sonic and Mario Olympics didn't make people rush to buy it. It took it's time to become one of the Wii's best selling titles. Stop panicking CT..
