Sonic Generations General Discussion

[Gagaman]

That Sliver boss, even just judging from screenshots looks a thousand times better than "ITS NO USE TAAAAKE THIS rinse and repeat". Still pretty meh about him being a rival boss and not Knuckles (in Hidden palace zone would of been nice) but if the boss is enjoyable I've got nothing against it.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2006, for all intents and purposes is a bad game, there's no getting around that... But what bothers me nowadays more is that it's been 5 years since it came and a huge part of the Internet gaming community still freaks out over the mention of it. Can't we just move on?

I've played it recentely and as bad as it is, it's not just not painfully bad, today it's comically bad, the plot and the dialogue triy to be Final Fantasy-serious but it ends up being unintentionally funny, much like recent Final Fantasy games themselves.

So what is really still there to be offended by?

Not exactly Generations related, but what is Sumo actually working on all this Time? They said they did have a couple of SEGA projects, a Sega/Sonic mash-up game would have been announced by now if the kept the 2 Year-cycle. Maybe they're doing the Daytona USA port?

One project I think it's the already released SEGA RALLY ONLINE ARCADE, the other I believe it's still an all-star SEGA/SONIC game, but they also announced to be working on a big and ambitious project not SEGA related, finally the DAYTONA port is made by AM2 itself.

I guess the Sonic Generations Boss Trailer came out a little early when it was supossed too.

I saw it posted today, but it was taken out a little while ago.

While the bosses and rivals looked cool, I hope we will get more than 6 bosses.

I think its a fair amount of bosses, considering the amount of 'rival' missions that will be in the game which will kind of be a bit like boss battles.

There's going to be more than 6 bosses, most likely there's going to be 7. xD
2 per era plus final boss.

I also bet we'll see missions featuring supersized badnik bosses. Fingers crossed! But even so, a classic eggman, modern eggman and the first (and best) monster of the week plus three rivals all with different difficulty modes is pretty great.

Oh yeah i forgot that new monster of the week. Well, that sux (should have been 9)

Modern Sky Sanctuary and Modern Seaside Hill...

Wow... Why did they not show this stuff off before? It looks fantastic.

Its some fine 3D platforming. So many different routes, so many paths and looks so good. I am impressed.

[Sharky]

Some of the 3D levels look better than the 2D ones for platforming to be honest... I thought modern Seaside Hill was outstanding.

This marks the second time Aaron Webber does this bit with CNet (also with Sonic 4:Episode I). It's also a pretty curious network to collaborate with. CNet, while it's very much focused in computer tech it also geared for a more mainstream crowd.

[crackdude]

I could hear Aaron talk for days on end. His voice is majestic.

[max_cady]

And I guess he's also a good sell as a Community Manager, since he looks and addresses these like a regular guy talking to other gamers, instead of a seeming like a rehearsed PR guy, even though that's part of his job.

Only two more weeks until Sonic Generations lands!

Not sure if someone has already posted, but in the 2nd demo press r. SEGA also informed that there will be a BOXED PC version out further in time, later in November, as the 3ds title.
