IGN just reviewed the game and one of the negative things they noticed was the lack of co-op.

O...K... That sounds resonable, but co-op in a 2D Sonic game doesn't seem practical in the very least.

Another "thought" thrown into the bunch for the sake of arguing New Super Mario Bros is better. Co-op does not belong in a game like this. If you're good, you'll go fast, if you're new to the game not so much. How do you work that out? These people should get some brains.

"Trust me when I say, they are worse, not just different. The angles in which Sonic can do an idle walk really should not be in this game."
Yes, but I was referring more to the general audience. They tend to not pick up on those things as much as we do of course..

I wasn't a fan of the physics in Rush but I didn't mind them either..

Also by Co-op I'm pretty sure they were thinking of how in Sonic 2 and 3 a second player can pick up the controller and play as Tails.
I think that will be in Ep2.. They'll add Tails to the mix.

Differing physics are fine as long as they aren't game breaking. The game plays well from start to finish with the physics causing few to no problems. Now if you play the game with the intention to compare the physics to a Genesis game, you will find differences but that doesn't mean that a difference = a bad game.

After all the disliking from me and a lot of others towards the game, and now seeing all the good reviews. I realised sonic deserves it after so long. I mean how lang has it been since a "sonic" game on the console was generally well preceived? Yeah exactly.

Sonic 4 is getting good reviews and allthough at the beginning I was like, this game doesn't deserve it exactly imo, now I think this can only take the franchise to a much brighter future. If sonic colors nails it to get good reviews too, this will be a great year for sonic.



PS: Still dislike s4e1 however :oops:

Sonic Advance 2 also got a lot of positive reviews, heck Sonic Rush was considered a return to the classic roots of the series, point being blue hedgehog + speed + 2D only = most reviewers going crazy over it, it's not like they realized what made Sonic so good in the first place either.

Not that I'm trying to rain on the parade, but getting good reviews for Sonic games should not be so hard, it's just so happens that they've lacked any direction and terrible QA and horrible planning and some truly atrocious game ideas, that even a okay game would be able to get great reviews so long as it stuck to what people believe is Sonic.

In Sonic Advance 2 you had to cross a bottomless pit to beat a level. "Very good" does not apply to Sonic Advance 2.

Sonic Advance 2 is hold right to win and has some of the worst level designs in the series.

Which is why I say reviewers have very little idea of what a good Sonic game, makes. Don't make me post maps! I'll do it I swear!

I bought that game when it came out. I didn't read any reviews nor opinions. Just got it, played it and loved it.

So I don't get what's wrong with it.. The Canyon level is hard. The techno one is cheap. But those are supposed to be the hardest levels, so I don't know what to complain about..

There is no "good Sonic game" formula. Some you can enjoy, like Advance 2; some you can't, like Advance 3.
