  • The latest Sonic the Hedgehog game is here! With recreated levels from the past, a team-up of paradoxical proportions, and no sign of any game-changing gimmicks, is Sonic Generations truly a great game? Let's find out.

      I guess you didn't want to take the time out of your day to look up either reviews or what johnny said about it huh. For one thing, the wisps are hollow versions of Sonic Colors, ruining game flow. Also, point difference in just reviews... www.gamerankings.com/xbox360/627224-sonic-generations/index.html and www.gamerankings.com/wii-u/715775-sonic-lost-world/index.html. Definitely not a better game. Even Johnny said at the end of his Sonic Boom review that "Even Lost World is a better game than this... but I recommend the classic Sonic series, Sonic Colors, and Sonic Generations WAY over this."

    • @quilceus6090
      @quilceus6090 Před 9 lety +1

      Good Point. You said the story was better (even though it's completely one note in my opinion... and Johnny and critics) but also you said GAMEPLAY not CONTROLS. Gameplay is an EXTREMELY broad topic. Gameplay covers Game Design, Levels, and controls. Also, even if you did mean controls, the parkour system is completely stupid in 2d section, constantly having to stop using the run button (even though... it's a sonic game). Also, Lost World is a copycat of Mario Galaxy.

    Ever wonder why there is only two classic Sonic battles and four modern Sonic battles? There was originally going to be another Sonic, a Dreamcast one. he was supposed to be like the king of the Dreamcast era. He was also going to be voiced by Ryan Drummond. Also, Jaleel White was going to voice Classic Sonic, but they never got around to contacting him, resulting in Classic being muted.

      *****
      Not really, the second one had bullshit special stage requirements, and the secret ending and secret character was way past hard.
      The third one WOULD be better if the combinations were better thought out. Honestly it would have made more sense for this to be a new game to be fleshed out in sequels. Also death traps up the ass.
      That said, I don't think the first one is the clear best. It doesn't have Cream and the boost mechanics is a nice addition. Though it's the most "classic" of the games. The second two feel like the 2D equivalent of Sonic Adventure 2 and Heroes, a transition from classic to modern.

    • @SJtheMFZB
      @SJtheMFZB Před 7 lety +1

      ***** Their stages suck. I like every single stage in Advance 1, right down to the act. Stages I like in 2: ...
      Advance 1 also takes it in music. Off the top of my head: Angel Island Zone 1 and 2, Egg Rocket, Cosmic Angel, Ice Caps 1 and 2, etc.
      In Advance 2, I sort of like the first stage's theme. Molten Lava, no. Sky Canyon, no. Ice Paradise... You get the point. All of the stage themes in this game sound generic and lifeless, which really stands out in a franchise known for some of the most exceptional tracks in video games.
      Have not finished 3. It could actually be really good overall, for all I know, but the first stage didn't leave an impression, music or gameplay-wise.

    I'm sure a lot of people already know this, including you, Johnny, but the reason why Sonic Generations never poked fun at the past levels after Chemical Plant is because the writers had never played a Sonic game before (or at the very least, played sonic 1 and 2 and no other sonic game) It is really annoying that Sonic Team implemented writers who can't even apply the story to the canon because they don't know what the canon is about, especially for Sonic Generations, an anniversary title.

    6:16 The Dreamcast Era really means 6th Generation Era. The Dreamcast started the 6th generation era of gaming, so it means that Sonic Adventure, Sonic Adventure 2, Sonic Heroes, and even other titles like the Sonic Shuffle, Shadow, and Sonic Riders fall under this category.

      Maybe it's because it's about Sonic's story mainly. Besides that Tails and Knuckles or even Amy should be playable over the likes of Shadow and Silver. Shadow would just be a Sonic clone and be uninteresting. Silver would probably just be like a Supersonic clone because he can fly.

    Oh man. Sonic Generations was one of the first Sonic games that I've played since 2007. I was interested in Sonic at the time and decided that I should get some of the games. So I got Generations for the PS3 and Colors for the DS for Christmas last year. When I got home, I popped in Sonic Generations. And I thought it was _absolutely f**king incredible_. Thus began my current obsession with Sonic. Jesus f**king Christ I will never forget this game.

      shaun03a I'm glad you became interested in the Sonic franchise despite the serious misteps that the franchise has had over the years. Generations was a great game and Lost World is pretty good too but it appeals to fans of the Adventure series so you might not like it. If you have a 3ds or wii u you should try it out. I'm sure Sonic Team are developing a game similar to Generations and Colours for the Xbox One and PS4, and it will be epic :)

    • @stardust-reverie
      @stardust-reverie Před 9 lety

      cahan mclaughlin I'm expecting them to do something like that for the 25th anniversary, similar to how they made SA2 for the 10th anniversary. I'm just scared of the community flipping out when Sonic Boom: Fire and Ice comes out.
      I played the demo of the 3DS version of Lost World, and I like it a lot. The thing is that I saw Johnny's review on Lost World, and I don't really want to buy the 3DS version. Another issue is that I don't have a Wii U, which is a real shame because of things like Smash Bros 4 and Splatoon. Otherwise I would definitely pick it up.

    • @cahan7033
      @cahan7033 Před 9 lety

      shaun03a yeah they kinda need to do something for his 25th anniversary so hopefully it happens cuz I really want a gorgeous new sonic game running 1080p 60 fps and the community has already flipped out including myself becauss Boom is complete garbage tbh. And dont let one reviewers opinion stop you from getting a game, and yeah I was actually going to get a wii u but I waited until after e3 and I'm glad I did as it looks like they are dropping support for the wii u as the NX is coming soon

    • @stardust-reverie
      @stardust-reverie Před 9 lety

      cahan mclaughlin Yes, it's about bloody time for a new main-series game since Sonic Lost World. Yes, I must agree, Sonic Boom belongs in a dumpster. Also, the NX? I didn't watch E3, so IDK what Nintendo's been doing recently.

    • @cahan7033
      @cahan7033 Před 9 lety

      shaun03a basically all you need to know is that there are lots of mulitplats on the way for pc, ps4 and xbox one. The xbox one is getting lots of great exclusives this year like halo, gear of war, forza, tomb raider and fable. Sony also showed off some pretty good games but they dont have much coming this year. 99% of Nintendos conference was 3DS games (which I dont mind because I own the new 3ds) and amiibos. They showed off like 2 wii u games, neither of which were anything great. So basically the Wii U's lifecycle is coming to an end and I'm glad tbh, I really hope the NX is a true next gen system

    While this IS my second favorite Sonic game, I'll admit that there is a lack of variety when it comes to stages. I get that they were trying to include the levels people enjoyed the most from each game, but the fact that there are four city levels (Speed Highway, City Escape Crisis City, Rooftop Run), two green hill type levels (Green Hill, Seaside Hill), and two industrial-themed levels (Chemical Plant, Planet Wisp) just makes me wonder if they were thinking about stage variety at all.
    Also, this was a HUGE missed opportunity to make Tails playable again. He even had a classic form, so it's not like it would have been that difficult to add him in as DLC at the very least.

      Generations stages are so f*king goods, my only problem with this game is that his "adaptation" to pc really s**ked at all. C'mon, at the very first version the drift didn't work on the keyboard, and more, no matter how good is your pc, the game still have moments where the frame rate goes to the ground.
      Even so, it is really good game, I got all S ranks, all red rings, all challenges. Then I've downloaded the mod "Unleashed project" ( good if u want some hard challenges ) and, that was hard to get all the rank S -the time to get them were insane- but still the stages were good.

      semaseri x Well the Unleashed Project Mod did fix the many problems with Sonic Unleashed such as QTEs, poor drifting, bad framerate, Sonic's speed jacked up to a ridiculous degree, stiff platforming, annoying camera, homing attack and air boost having the same button, pointless leg sweep attack and crawl move that interrupts sliding, landing after a stop is slippery, Sonic's obnoxious "Wooh" nose, werehog, medal hunting, hub worlds etc. The Unleashed project has no QTEs, good drifting, 60 FPS, Sonic's speed being more tame, fluid platform control, responsive camera, homing attack and air boost having different buttons, no stupid leg sweep and crawl to prevent the slide move, land stomps are no longer slippery, Sonic's voice is less loud, no werehog, mandatory medals are gone in favoure of optional red rings, simple hubwrold that doesn't force you to backtrack etc.
