It looks really nice in my opinion, but then again I'm a complete Sonic fanboy, It's fair to say Sonic Colors and Sonic Unleashed were a lot of fun but I've spent atleast 300 hours in Sonic the Hedgehog (2006).

Looking forward to this.

I know right,but there's actually some pretty cool stuff you can do. There's the blue stone-upgrade that you can point at something and Sonic will get teleported to that spot. Which enables you to do funky stuff like teleport yourself out of boss battle areas and walk around in the un-finished incredibly ugly designer areas

Also, I only just noticed that in Sonic Generations, Classic Sonic doesn't have the boost that Modern sonic has which is pretty cool cause instead he gets to keep his chargeable spin-dash.

Well, back to staring at all my Sonic collector trash/plushes/neon lamps/dvd boxes/comics/bed sheets after stating that incredibly obvious-and-by now old fact.

I preferred fat Sonic from the early/mid-nineties to the one they have now

and if this game sucks, you can always play Sonic 1/2/3+K

Why even bother posting about Sonic again, you can wish what you want, but we all know exactly what's going to happen.

That's what we said about Sonic Colors.

Also, despite its many flaws, I still found Sonic 4 enjoyable. Not worth the 15 dollar price tag, admittedly, but fun.

Same. I got it during a 360 sale last week, and other than a frustrating bit involving a labyrinth of cannons in the casino zone, I'm having fun.

As far as I know both Sonic Unleashed (apart from the werehog thing) and Sonic Colors were both good and got good ratings.

Getting kinda bored of the entire ''Sonic-cycle'' idea cause now people are starting to join the ''fray'' who didn't even look at the last two games before saying ''hurr Sonic cycle'' or something related to that.

Just my honest, completely sided Sonic fanboy opinion :P
awp
Sonic Unleashed is alright if you like God of War and grinding.

Did I just hear the Jaleel White voice version for the original Sonic? If it is indeed, I would get the game for that fact alone. Fk yeah Urkel Sonic.

You didn't. The same guy from Colors will probably voice New Sonic, and Classic Sonic won't speak at all.

If only.

To be honest, something like that might make me actually pre-order it. Though it's impossible for them to get Long John Baldry to do Eggman :(

It's been confirmed ever since someone found traces of a private beta on Steam four months ago. They haven't announced it yet, though; I assume they're delaying the PC version for corporate reasons.

In addition to the demo being hinted at in Steam, NeoGAF more recently discovered this.

So yeah, PC version's coming.

Also, someone stitched together the three era-based trailers, if you need a refresher of what stages the non-3DS version is getting:

Sinistro
Some great stage choices, from what I can tell. Bit of a shame for Star Light, though.

PC version has finally been announced. It'll be out on the 4th of November, and retail for half the price of the console versions. Steamworks integration is just the icing on the cake.
RemmyX25
I have no regret preordering this game.

I played the demo while it was out on consoles, and the 5 year old me was so happy. I seriously can not wait to get this.
Mianki
Bosses Trailer, nice :D

Vext_old
So I finally played the demo... Wow... That was good... And I mean the 3D version of the level. Finally it has a ridiculous sense of speed to it like it should, and they even upgraded the terrible controls of the previous ones.
RemmyX25
This game


is beautiful ;w;

I'll get this when I have enough money or I'll ask Santa if he would give it to me :3

The PC version is running at a stable 60 FPS on my meager mid-range rig, and I've yet to encounter any bugs. My only real complaint is that the aspect ratio is locked to 16:9; if you're on a 16:10 monitor, don't forget to change the display mode to Letterbox in the configuration menu before you start the game.

Oh, and the actual game is pretty good as well. Don't expect a lot of acts, though; the meat of the game lies in the optional challenge stages.

This game feels amazing on the PC, not so much on the PS3 though. Feel like I wasted money on that copy. Oh well, game is really fun.

What is it about the PS360 version that makes it inferior to the PC version (other than the price tag)? Is it higher load times/weaker graphics or is there something else? I'm not sure which version I should get - my PC will handle it just fine, but if I get the PS3 version, I can play it at work on a 3D TV.

Load times and there are a lot of sections where I started getting some button delay(.5-1 second). It got pretty bad once I entered Sky Sanctuary, but not as bad in Speed Highway.
Oh right, on the PS3 version the music tends to play 2-4 seconds late. Not sure if that's just me or not.

pc version is awesome, no complaints. If you want to play it with PS3 controller you'll have to use xbox 360 controller emulation with motioninjoy. Alternatively you could just use an xbox 360 controller.
awp
I'd be playing it with a PS1 controller, actually
Pokebis
Why?
Dualshock 3 is a wonderful controller.
awp
because it's identical to dualshock 2 which is basically what my PS1 controller is

apart from the L2/R2 buttons

allllso I don't have any usb mini cables that reach the couch
Pokebis
Use Bluetooth. That's what I do. (You're gonna' have to connect via USB once to sync it)
foulcoon
L2/R2 buttons are kinda necessary for some Act 2 stages. I allows you to "drift" I guess you would call it. Also it doesn't change the fact that Sonic Generations for PC by default only supports keyboard and Xbox 360 controller. You have to emulate the xbox 360 controller with your other input to use it.
Bestelle
Plus it's pretty fun to drift in general. Well... For me it's fun.
