Actually reading through that seems to confirm any fear I had about the game. Old Sonic > New Sonic so it stands to reason that this will start great and get worse. Just going to cover my ears and shout LALALALALALA over all the reviewers though since they're blatantly lying.
Also inb4 somebody posts the Sonic Cycle even though 6.75 isn't "panned" at all. -- Oops! I'm breaking the fourth wall! http://imgon.net/di-CFMD.gif ... Copied to Clipboard!

8/10 from Destructoid. I think they sum it up pretty well
When Sonic Generations fails, it fails pretty horrendously. It's frustrating to see that, even when faced with some fantastic examples of Sonic done right, Sonic Team still can't resist doing things wrong. However, as far as recent retail titles go, this is one of the most consistently enjoyable ones released in a while. The moments of failure are significantly outweighed by genuinely fun levels and a handful of borderline thrilling sequences. Only two or three of the main stages are bad while the rest range from solid to downright glorious. They are some damn fine innings for any title. While it's not quite the stunning triumph that many had hoped for, Sonic Generations is a truly great game that provides some of the best Sonic action ever seen and pays fitting tribute to Sonic the Hedgehog -- highlighting both his successes and his failures. If Sonic Team can keep this up, then the blue blur will most definitely be back on top. -- http://i1127.photobucket.com/albums/l636/MasterKingJC/131758304541402.gif http://www.yourgamercards.net/trophy/a/CaptainRockman.png ...

Wait a god damn minute.
A wide variety of music can be unlocked and used in any stage -- you've not truly experienced the game until you've played a level with "Sonic Boom" blasting in the background! Oh my god I need a towel. -- ~LtM http://img.imgcake.com/1309914563818gifpa.gif ... Copied to Clipboard!

it's 7s and 8s from everyone. sounds like it's a game Sonic fans will like a lot and one that will be a bit above average for people who aren't quite as invested.

The GI review is...really bad. He downgrades the game because the later levels are based on the latest games.
What the F*** does that have to do with just about ANYTHING? How does that effect the actual levels? Crisis City in this game plays nothing like the terrible Sonic 2006 one -- It will launch for $350 with some Wii Sports s***. I bet my life on it. Damn, that KoolAid guy is awesome - NGamer64 ...

GamesRadar's 8/10 review was much more detailed, more through with its analysis, and didn't have Classic bias poisoning their perspective

I can understand where people would have issue with the modern Sonic levels, but I enjoyed Green Hill Zone in the demo, at least. Tough to say what the later ones will play like, but if they have that same quality to them, I could get into the non-Classic gameplay. I love the grades at the end of levels.

Well most of them are insisting all levels should have been from the Genesis games and there should have been multiple levels from Sonic 3. Which, at this point, why not just make a Sonic 3 remake or something. This is supposed to be celebrating the entire history of Sonic, not just Sonic 3. -- TheRock ~ Death By Misadventure, Not Suicide "Would've liked to see that." - Ayuyu on my boner ...

From: swirIdude | #024 It was brilliant marketing, really. Game Informer was the worst gaming magazine around in its early years, but by selling through Gamestop and essentially being "free", they completely shut down their competition, and have claimed the throne atop the **** monopoly. -- ~LtM http://img.imgcake.com/1309914563818gifpa.gif ...

I've got to say, though, classic Sonic steals every scene he's in further proof if ever it were needed that some characters are just better when they don't speak. His character has a sweetness and strength, all told through body language and facial animations instead of the traditional awful dialogue.
I've been saying this for years! Sonic's version of Hidden Palace Zone in S3&K is the best scene in the series by a wide, wide margin for this very reason. From: TheRock1525 | #023 Sold. -- http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/7760/222bj.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!
