Sonic Adventure & Crazy Taxi XBLA/PSN suck a lot apparently

[Barry the Nomad]

That's basically how Bayonetta looked during the final boss when I played. I crammed her with so many suckers...

Well, I was browsing through a lengthy TSSZnews article and I stumbled upon this video from the french website Eversonic.

This build looks very buggy, moreso than the original, which is pretty weird.
Either the emulation isn't working properly (don't know if this is the PC build or the Gamecube build). Here's hoping they fix all the bugs till Fall hits.

It's worse than I expected. The draw distance issues are nothing compared to that.

Wasn't this game supossed to come out in September? If so, I sure hope they do iron out most of the bugs. If not better delay them for a couple of months.

Sega has kept both these titles(Crazy Taxi and SA) very below the radar.

2 months old video.
Time enough for them to fix that crap.

[Sharky]

Now that I can agree looks like shit.

[Sega Uranus]

Do not think they will be able to fix a lot of this because these are general problems the game has always had. People who missed out on this now are going to play that and think Sonic has always been shitty. They also said they planned to release one Dreamcast game a month too, I believe... I cannot see them being much better than what we just saw.

Wonderful.

As long as Skies of Arcadia gets included in this, I don't care about the rest.

If Sega wants to fuck their IPs, we can't stop them.

This is going to be so f*cked up..

[MadeManG74]

Oh Sega... why do you do these things?

[Mengels7]

I'm guessing people at Sega of America or Europe are doing these ports.  Nothing good comes out of them.  All the botched iPhone ports, Golden Axe and other shitty outsourced games, these Dreamcast ports, all rubbish.  Just move everything to Japan and reduce the western stuff to a translation team or something.  I don't know.  Seriously if I could just get Shenmue 3 I'd be completely okay with Sega falling apart and disappearing.  The heartaches aren't worth the rare Valkyrian ray of light we get once in a while.

PS: Sorry if that makes no sense.  I'm so damn bored at work.  I have nothing better to do than mindlessly ramble on Sega forums.

Actually Yosuke Okunari is heading up the DC ports. He's a Japanese man don'tcha know!

Miss Backbone yet?

Well, we'll have to wait and see how this plays out.

The original Sonic Adventure is quite buggy, there's one particular segment in the stage that you just have to press foward even if you're going sideways, if you try to jerk the D-pad to any other direction you will fall off and lose a life.

And since we're on the subject of SA glitches:

3D Sonic games have always been buggy, yes. These days the players are more demanding of "perfection" then they used to be.

But still there's no reason for a re-release of a 12 year old game to be inferior.
