Sonic Generations

After the disappointing sonic games on this gens consoles, it's nice to see a game that stays true to the original sonic games. The 2D sections of this game are almost exactly the same as the original sections. The 3D parts are also great! Each stage is a recreation of a stage on a previous sonic games, whether it's sonic heroes or sonic unleashed, they all play great.The boss enemies are epic too. You'll be surprised at how many characters from the sonic series are in this game! Alsong with the main story, there are lots of challenges and an online mode.Playing this game almost makes me want to play sonic unleashed... almost. Saga couldn't have done a better job on bringing the series back to life, and I hope that the future sonic games will be like this one.

Considering the time this game came out, It was refreshing to see Sonic go back to his roots to fix the troubled history of the franchise. The story isn't too complicated but it didn't need to be since this was a game celebrating the franchise's anniversary after all, and it didn't disappoint.

The early 2010s were an interesting time for SEGA since they were looking back in hindsight of some of the blunders of the previouse decade like Shadow the Hedgehog and Sonic 06, SEGA took into account of fan's complaints and created Sonic Unleashed with the cutting edge Hedgehog Engine which broke the limits of what Sonic games could be. Following the awesome and imaginative Sonic Colours for the Wii, Generations is the second game that uses the hedgehog engine and improves on the gameplay even more.

With reimagined stages from past games, Sonic runs faster than ever before with stages so crisp and colourful, It's a joy to play every time. The return of classic sonic was also a great idea as every stage has a modern and classic mode to please all fans.

I loved this game and thought it was the perfect way to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the iconic character. With the Sonic movie coming out now listening to the fan's voices about what they really want to see from the character, Sonic's future is looking bright. Maybe SEGA will make a 3rd game using the Hedgehog Engine, come on SEGA, I know you read these reviews

Tails used to be to voiced by young boys. In fact, boys did his voice from Sonic Adventure to Sonic Heroes. In Sonic Heroes, Tails' actor, William Corkery, was only 8 or 9, and could have had a long career being that fox. But after being on the job for only two years, Corkery was dismissed. From there, old sluts took over doing the little fox's voice to this day, and it seemed that Sega would never use a boy again. As a Tails fan, I find this obscene and depressing, knowing that Sega is disregarding the fact that Tails is a boy fox. I can imagine a lot young lads who thought of doing Tails' words but have been denied because of Sega's absurdity.

Yes, this game is cute and colorful as any Sonic video game. But with the disgustingness Sega continues to do to no end, I'll never play Sonic Generations or any subsequent Sonic game for as long as I live. Thank you Sega for ruining Tails.

"SONIC GENERATIONS" (2011) got me very excited when it was released. It looked to be the best Sonic game since "SONIC HEROES" (2003). Although I was initially impressed with the graphics the game became a bit of a bore. It's very well packaged but, again, old levels rehashed, games mashed together and much the same.

I heard a lot that this game is the best Sonic game among the rest. So I had to give it a shot.

The graphics, the colours, the designs, the whole game looked amazing and it had the potential.

Both Modern/Classic Sonic were great designed. And I liked how they kept Classic Sonic mute all the time it fits him so well.

The side missions that you finish to collect all the 3 keys are pretty fun. I only played 2 side missions, they were fun specially Blaze's one that you have to use her to calm the fire that blocks your way I had fun with that.

The controls are acceptable and the button places are perfect for good usage.

Sadly, The movement annoyed me so much. Modern Sonic is too fast and he needs to collect icons in the mission but he won't slow down and the icons are tiny that you need at least 4 seconds to get them right.

Even Classic Sonic has the same issue. He is a slow braker. Even with 'Power Brake' skill he always slips a foot before a complete stop.

The stage building/design is somewhat bad. They are so long that it may take 4-6 minutes to finish. The enemies distribution, they are everywhere and their shots always hit Sonic.

I didn't finish the final boss. The controls were hard to use. Modern Sonic is too fast. And Classic Sonic is too slow and hard to move.

Summation: I tried my best to like this game. I really did. And I played a lot just to prove that I am wrong and this game is good, but unfortunately I failed to.
