I'll go for NHL: whatever

The point is: Sonic Colors is not getting the credibility it deserves from the press.

[Sharky]

Thats perfect, thanks. Ill put it on the front page in fact.

Gamespot is just one website and honestly Who cares about them nowadays. Check gamefaqs where it's on number 1 on both top 10 games and on message boards, topping even golden eye.

Anyone reminded of Klonoa when playing Sonic Colors. (Specifically the world maps)

Along with the "2.5D" gameplay? Yup.

SEGA, it's time to talk to Namco about a Tails and Klonoa crossover game. <333

Great except... Why?

Again, what is the deal with only posting negitive news about everything you can possibly find?

Honest Ron's Review Emporium: 3/10

Sonic Colours is a rubbish game.

Controversial.

[Sega Uranus]

I have been playing the game for about 3 or 4 hours now, it looks like I am more than half way through the game which is... Kind of disappointing.

Nevertheless, credit goes where it is deserved. This is the best Sonic game in years, in fact I think it is the best Sonic spinoff since Sonic Pocket Adventure, and if we do not count handhelds then it is the best one since like... Sonic Chaos on the Master System.

There are some parts of the game where I was just really confused because the design was actually really good. Almost all of the levels have really good design and different kinds of platforms you can reach at all different kinds of angles, really strange for a Sonic Team game.

My only complaints come from I am just not really a fan of the overall style (it is not bad, I just do not really like it) and the controls being kind of wonky and needing a bit of polish, especially the double jump's arc and Classic Controller's horrible mapping.

It really bugs me how this is way more like a Kirby or Mario game than Sonic, but that does not really matter when the overall game is just designed very well and not a constant crapfest. There have been absolutely no sections where I have been mad at the game which has not happened to me in a Sonic game since like... Sonic Advance 1?

Certainly not the best 3D Sonic game... but it is great so far. At it's very worst it is still good. If whoever is reading this cannot decide between buying this game or Sonic the Hedgehog 4... Just get this and never look back, Sonic the Hedgehog 4 is garbage, this is great.

EDIT: I really hate the Sonic Simulator stuff, but I was grinning so hard when I saw Spring Yard Zone and Labyrinth Zone's maps recreated, especially because they do not tell you, only the biggest fans can tell which level is a remake and which is not.

[CrazyT]

Hey uranus, so what do you find the best 3d sonic game?

Also about the length, I think a lot of us should be gratefull that they didn't try to lengthen the game with more of that alternate gameplay bullshit we have had for the last 10 years. I mean don't you remember the werehog that was made because of the reasoning that sonic alone would make a too short game? We Finally have a pure sonic game that is just based around the core gameplay of sonic from beginning to end.

In the future i'd love more characters to lengthen up the game, but I hope they will not make them play a lot different than sonic. I as a tailsfan have hoped for years that tails would finally play similar to sonic again in a 3d sonic game, where he can fly and propel his tails to make himself go fast just like in the 2d games. I  think the last 3d game I remember where it was done kinda right was sonic adventure 1. It's just that it wasn't fun to have him race sonic in shorter versions of sonic's stages.

20th aniversary game, yeah i'm looking at you!! :evil:  please don't dissapoint me.

Lol at Uranus still calling this a spin-off. It's a main Sonic game, deal with it.
Anyway, about the length of Colours, in my opinion it's all about replay value.

[CrazyT]

Yeah, I agree with you ezo.

Replay value is always what sonic has been about. But I got to be honest however. I would have loved it if Terminal velocity also had a count of 6 acts :p. The zone was good looking and had an epic tune. I just didn't feel like I had enough of it. Especially Terminal velocity act 2, the last part that happens after the final boss. It had a different tune than act 1 and the act just took like 20 seconds?

My counter is allready on 30 hours. Got all medals and still S ranking some stages now and t han. Last time I checked I was second place in the world ranking of starlight carnaval act 6 :p. *goes checking it out*

Well, I can't say much about Colours replay value, since I haven't even played it yet. Still waiting for the local store to have it (if it doesn't have it by monday, I'll just order it online). :<

[Autosaver]

all you have to do is take the highest road and sometimes ignore all of the badniks even

Did you even play Colors? Taking the highest road and ignoring everything else WILL NOT give you a good score.
