It's been a while since I've played a Sonic game, since there hasn't been one on PS3 since Unleashed (I think), but I'm excited to see this game, I love nostalgia.

^^ Follow the link on the previous page bro (post #20), 5 bucks you won't be disappointed!

[New Zero]

^^Yeah I just realized we posted the same thing lol, but I watched the trailer and I like

[Dynamo8]

^^ Guess that means I win 5 bucks

Anyways hearing that only those 2 will be the only playable characters, I'm anxious to see what they got in store for us. They're taking the classic levels and modern ones; (rumored up to be Sonic Adventure 2), so I'm predicting they'll be a ton of levels to run through, plus most of them being redesign so both can play at each other old/new stages.

Here's an interview and finally some gameplay footage:


Can anyone translate what's he saying? That be much appreciated!!!




Hope you all enjoy the videos!!

Wow. I am actually pretty impressed. It looks like they are ACTUALLY going to get it "right" this time! Damn...I'm actually pretty excited! Definitely looks to be a blend of new gameplay and old gameplay throughout the same/updated stages.

Damn...damn, damn.

E3 is sure to deliver buckets of goodness this year! =D

[thewhat?]

Translating what the guy says:
In this year Sonic is 20 years old.Sonic Generations concept was,essentially,to compress 20 years of Sonic's history in one game.To achieve it,what we did was joining classic Sonic,with its traditional 2d platforms and its characteristic gameplay,and Modern Sonic with all his features.In my opinion there are fans who enjoy classic Sonic in 2d,the action and platforms game with horizontal scroll,and others who prefer 3D Sonic,like recent games.In 2010 we launched Sonic 4 Episode 1,who was oriented to the greater followers of the more classical Sonic,but we also launched Sonic Colors,oriented to the fans who enjoy Sonic in 3D.What we did with Generations was making a game oriented to both groups of fans.We hope everyone enjoy this unique video game and we celebrate together Sonic's 20th anniversary.Sonic """""" design is a true summary of 20 years of Sonic.It doesn't go to neither the character's classical elements,nor it doesn't concentrate in last years news,tries to cover everything that has been seen in 20 years of Sonic.

Today we had a demonstration of Green Hill Zone,the first level of the franchise,but throughout the year we will show other levels from the game and you'll see they come from everywhere.*another shit about covering everything*.

Today we have announced this 2 characters but they will appear many other characters from Sonic's universe(note:that universe is SURE big believe me.it's like sonic is more immortal than Mario )*talks about that sonic's friends will be part of the story or game's elements,tons of surprises saved,focused on action funny to play,getting it the classical way with classic Sonic and modern sonic there won't be co-op or competitive,just a pure action and platforms game for a single player.*

HOLY SH*T I had to be like 12 minutes writing,watching,translating with Google.My back hurts now.

Classic Sonic coming in to show the noobs how its done.

It sure is nice of SEGA to snub their most loyal buyers by making this release a PS3 and Xbox only. Seriously, years of lackluster games that fans have loyally bought hoping for something good, SEGA decides to make Colours Wii-only because they didn't have any expectations for it in the first place after Unleashed, and then when they see the goldmine it turned out to be, they give Wii users the finger? Thanks! And here I was getting my hopes up to play the type of Sonic game that fans have been waiting years to see.

What's funnier still is how SEGA pretends that the Wii userbase isn't their biggest consumerbase, claiming that all the games they released on the Wii are aimed 'at kids' and that all of their 'true loyalists' are PS3 and Xbox users only. What a miserable disappointment this news has turned out to be. I almost kinda hope it bombs on the PS3 and Xbox despite being awesome, contrary to my hopeful attitude, if simply for SEGA to come crawling back to the Wii users with another shitty game like The Secret Rings, saying "Hey, we're still cool with you guys, right? Right? Please buy our game?"

Awww, you guys could have just called me over. I know fluent Spanish.

In any case, specifically, Tails, Knuckles and Shadow were named.

Which made me think of something...

> Classic Sonic along with friends such as Tails, Knuckles and Shadow

> Tails, Knuckles and Shadow

> Shadow

> Classic Sonic

> Classic Shadow

Spoiler

You know you want this.

You know fluent Spanish?Oh,good.It's just that I don't know fluent ENGLISH.I was translating to get the proper word.Sometimes I already knew it and I just wasted my time lol.

However,about Classic Shadow.That is retarded AND MAKES Shadow look retarded.Shadow never was classic to begin with,so he didn't have a classic form.Shadow debuted in Sonic Adventure I think.That was already Sonic's mid design after his 1st ten years.Good idea if it weren't,well,idiotic.

[Telos]

Way to fail the concept of a joke.

[Flame]

I wasnt expecting such a SRS BSNSS response.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN; THE SONIC FANBASE!

come on though. it would be hilariously adorable. Also, it was a joke.

[Dynamo8]

^^ Guess I kinda miss the "internet joke" here but I'll just dose off else where for a minute.

@ Telos...I agree that it's disappointing that it's not on the Wii console, at the same time however, Sonic Colors was on the Wii and not on PS3/ Xbox360 and I felt completely bummed about it (game had catchy tunes by the way). Though I really hate to choose sides, it be nice if SEGA choose Sonic Generations to be on all 3 consoles so we can all stop bickering about that issue, but importing it on the Wii now may take up more time, maybe even pushing the game back to 2012 instead of end of the year release...somehow I don't mind that, longer wait = a better game I guess.

Oh well, we'll see what happens in E3 this year.

[Flame]

see the thing about having it on ALL consoles, is that the PS3 and 360 are more powerful than the Wii. if they make a game that takes advantage of the 360 and PS3's power, then they have to dumb it down for the wii. And if they make it for the wii first and release it on the other consoles, then it doesnt take full advantage of their power. And that's something people dont want. So untill Nintendo comes out with a console on the same power level as the 360 and PS3, releases cant be multiconsole across all 3.

[Telos]

The problem is though that Colours was released on the Wii because they didn't want to risk another average sales experience like Unleashed was. Seriously, you can't tell me that SEGA was expecting Colours to do as good as it did when they were busy hyping the hell out of Sonic 4 at the same time. They just had the engine, figured they'd cash in on the Wii fanbase since they always buy their games, and decided to make a lighthearted game. Now that they realize that the Colours formula is solid gold, they're cashing in on the other two consoles' users because those guarantee lots and lots of monies. Sorry, I'm just bitter that we're getting snubbed despite having stuck with SEGA through thick and thin.

[Dynamo8]

^^ Meh I don't blame ya, who knows there could be some changes later in the future, still a long away from it's release date.

[Flame]

Sega is being Picard.

Looks like they seem to do better when they DON'T expect a blockbuster sales hit.

SEGA: *While making Sonic '06* "THIS WILL BE THE GREATEST SONIC GAME EVER! PS3 and XBOX 360, GO!" *Realizes they doomed themselves too late* "Fuck it. Next Sonic game will just be a multi-platform" *Shits out Sonic Unleashed* "Wait, the Wii and PS2 version is half decent while 360 and PS3 fails?" *Makes Sonic and the Black Knight* "FUCK! THE WII HAS NO LOYAL FANBASE." *Begins the hype for Sonic 4 while making another game during lunch breaks* "Sonic 4? Demo = HORRIBLE!? no more sonic 4 episodes. wah" *Sonic Colours super success.* "COLOURS DID GOOD? WII SUCKS. NEW GAME ON PS3 AND 360."
