I'm such a huge sonic fan that i doubt my opinion matters, but, Sonic is making a comeback!! Finally he can be next to mario as a symbol of pop culture, again and awesome games.

Jerkapotamus6087d ago

The PS3 and 360 versions apparently have a bad framerate. No one knows about the Wii version, since it hasn't been seen in motion.

nieto6087d ago

Sonic doesn't even has a shadow, that shows how much effort they are putting on the game... even games on the ps2 like GoW that are running in a less capable console have better graphics that most games on the Wii.

AWBrawler6087d ago

PS2 could easily pull off conduit, Fatal Frame 4, Cursed Mountain, Galaxy, and Metriod Prime Corruption.

end sarcasm.

Graphics, graphics, graphics, is that all you guys care about these days. I miss the SNES vs Genesis days sometimes, because atleast then games where judged by what they where, not how they looked.

jeffaustin906087d ago

I agree, AWBrawler. Graphics can only get SO good before they reach a plateau, and that time is very near, at least with the 360 and PS3. Where will they have to go after they reach their ultra realistic graphics? They won't be able to play the Graphics Card, so to speak.

ChickeyCantor6087d ago (Edited 6087d ago )

In all fairness, nieto is b/tchy about the Wii.
However i see that he is bashing the developers and not really the Wii.

I agree with him i see little effort in this game.
It looks decent but they could have done much better.

Sonic in brawl looks better >_>.

So AWBrawler, that was a bit uncalled for.
"that shows how much effort they are putting on the game"
He didnt say Wii can't do better than this.

kesvalk6087d ago

c'mon! if they worsen the graphics a little more this game will run on the PS1! and i am not kidding, look at this textures! it's awful.

heck, sonic and the secret rings have a better graphic that this "thing" add werehog and you can see where this mess will get sonic to...

although, as a sonic fan, i will probably will buy this one too, as i did with every game of it (except the one in the PS3/360) T_T sad times...

Snipes206087d ago

this is one of those games where the dev assumes you won't be looking at the same texture for more than half a second...

ChickeyCantor6087d ago

Well maybe in motion it will look better since this game is all about speed.

AWBrawler6087d ago (Edited 6087d ago )

I was commenting more on his saying most PS2 games have better graphics than wii games. Granted they could have down more graphically. I can see effect that aren't possible on PS2 in those pics, (or Xbox for that matter) so i was right to respond to his uncalled for wii hatred. When I had a cube last gen I didn't toss the graphics cards at PS2 owners, cause i didn't know until the end of the run (RE4) or care.

ChickeyCantor6086d ago (Edited 6086d ago )

Actually he only said that GoW looked better on a system that has less power. He was talking about Sonic and not that Wii-games can't do better than Ps2 games.
It was more of a compliment if he says that something looked better on a lower spec system, meaning Wii can do much more.

I know nietos comments but i really don't see the hate towards Nintendo and the Console in that comment of his, rather to Sega and the little effort that has been put into this game.

N4g_null6087d ago

I can't wait to actually play this game. I'll judge the graphics later. I guess I'll get this and that hover board game to try out sega's next wave of sonic.

specialsauce916087d ago

dont get the hoverboard game its horrible.

N4g_null6087d ago (Edited 6086d ago )

LOL what is wrong with it? Sega made F-zero GX? Got any game play videos I should see. I always try and rent a game before buying it? But if you have vids then show me.

WOW you got me looking and it seems the controls where over complicated? That's not a problem for me most of the time. Graphics seem ok speed looks good and what is funny it seems to play like the unleashed game with out the hover board part or riders with out the adv levels. I don't know it just $19 that money I would have blown on some thing for no reason.

Just wondering have you play the game or are you going on media crit?

Dedicated Sonic Fans Have Managed to Unofficially Port Sonic Unleashed to PC

Sonic Unleashed on PC? The Sonic community managed to do just that with with the fan project "Sonic Unleashed Recompiled."

PRIMORDUS65d ago

Actually the torrent is up and you do not need to own the 360 version of the game. Also it will never be taken down.

Chocoburger64d ago

Nice, I found it on 1337x! I actually liked many parts of this game, but some parts are also shitty. Its uneven, but overall a decent game.

PRIMORDUS63d ago

1337x is one of my favorite ever since the real RARBG went down. I usually only get from FitGirl or DODI.

gold_drake64d ago

u gotta give the hardcore fans credit, they are committed to fix segas 3d sonic games ha.

I think it's best we leave these games we're they belong...in the past

Secret Rings, Unleashed, Black Knight etc, they weren't the best at least enough for a remaster

Generations is getting one because they had something easy to shove Shadow into before the Sonic 3 film and it's probably the better ones they've did over the past decade or so.

rayford15328d ago

Unleashed was one of my favorite P3 games would love a remastered version

NSANiTY327d ago

Minus the Werehog levels and I'm in.

Redgrave328d ago

Would be called.... Sonic Re-Leashed

Father__Merrin327d ago

Wouldn't mind a sonic 06 re release

gold_drake64d ago

gimme sonic heroes already!!!

If I have to read another one of these lists that contains the sentence "The game that started it all" I'm gonna go nuts.

And when it comes to fan favourite zones in Sonic 3 (he mentioned Hydro City, Marble Garden and Launch Base), I'd replace Launch base and Marble Garden with Ice Cap zone. Never heard anyone refer to the others as favourites.

NJShadow1037d ago (Edited 1037d ago )

I sorta' stopped caring about this list when I saw Sonic Spinball (a genuinely great game) ranked lower than some of the noted atrocities.

Pyrofire951036d ago

Sonic and All Stars Racing Transformed is still my favorite kart racer.
I've never really been able to play online tho. D:
Can't even play Team Sonic Racing online cause the servers are broken and don't queue people together.
P.S. This is such a random list. I really don't agree with it. Maybe this really is how they rank it but them just seems odd personally.
