Captain Falcon Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 £16.99 @Amazon! Is this likely to drop below £10 I wonder? The price of Sonic games always drops like a stone for some reason. Apart from a rather annoying last boss, I loved almost every second of this game. I only have 2 other real annoyances: 1) The missions with the helper characters were pretty bad, and 2) What did they do to my precious Planet Wisp? Eggman may have been cutting up the environment but Sonic Team took a mallet to the level design and pummelled it senseless. After 16 incredibly fun levels (well 15, Seaside Hill Classic is good, not great), I hit upon PW expecting great things. Were the games made by two completely different teams within Sonic Team? For anyone wondering, those levels certainly aren't representative of the level design of Sonic Colours - Colours plays more like all the other fun levels. I'm not going to raise issues over length as it's just as long as most other Sonic games these days and whilst more would have been welcome (where is my Sonic 3 Ice Cap Zone?), I'm pretty grateful for what is there already. For the past month, I've been playing this and Zelda SS and I can easily say I enjoyed this game more. Funny story: I wasn't confirming my skill selection (with the start button) after assigning them to the slots so I ended up beating the game without using any skills.
Jimbob Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Made this a purchase today, couldn't resist the £20 tag. So far, it is proving to me, as i said in an earlier post that Sega can make a good Sonic game if they pulled their fingers out.
f00had Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 I hope they do DLC stages for this game, and I mean proper stages cause the Casino Night Zone DLC sucks.
LegoMan1031 Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 I hope they do DLC stages for this game, and I mean proper stages cause the Casino Night Zone DLC sucks. That would be awesome... I somehow can't see it though
Hero-of-Time Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 I hope they do DLC stages for this game, and I mean proper stages cause the Casino Night Zone DLC sucks. I'm hoping they do aswell. I'm keeping a hold of my copy just in case. It's not as if I would get much in terms of trade in value, seeing as the price has bombed.
MindFreak Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 (edited) I want to pick this up, I really do. But I don't have the time for now so I'll wait till it's even cheaper. Edited January 15, 2012 by MindFreak
Jimbob Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 I do like the mix between classic and modern levels, quite like the twist Sega gave to each level corresponding to which Sonic you played as at the time.
Josh64 Posted January 16, 2012 Posted January 16, 2012 DLC would be amazing, this is one of my favourite Sonic games along with Colours. I still can't believe I paid £40 for it to then see it for £20 a few weeks later but I suppose that was my own fault :p It was worth it for the Sonic Avatar costume.
f00had Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 I got it for £75! But the Collector's Edition figure was totally worth it, it's on my stand collecting dust as I type.
Ike Posted January 18, 2012 Author Posted January 18, 2012 Soundtrack arrived yesterday. Packaging is quite fancy. Not had a chance to listen to it properly yet though
flameboy Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 This is now 8.99 on play.com certainly on ps3 not sure about 360.
LegoMan1031 Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 This is now 8.99 on play.com certainly on ps3 not sure about 360. Looks like £17 to me mate... Maybe it was just an error pricing which they quickly fixed! http://www.play.com/Games/PlayStation3/4-/19666419/Sonic-Generations/Product.html?searchtype=allproducts&searchsource=0&searchstring=sonic+generations&urlrefer=search
Ike Posted January 25, 2012 Author Posted January 25, 2012 They must've "sold out" because it was that price this morning. Amazon price matched if I remember.
f00had Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 Which soundtrack did you get, was it that 4 CD one from Japan?
