TimmiT, didn't you or someone else preorder Generations for PC on Game UK? Have they said anything about the preorder?
I preordered the PC version from Game UK. They sent me two emails, months ago.

Dear Mr xxxxxx

Thank you for the following order placed with GAME.

Order number(s):
xxxxxx

As you may already be aware, the UK release date for Sonic Generations has changed to 04-Nov-2011. Changes to release dates are relatively common in the videogames industry and are unfortunately beyond our control.

Don't worry, your order is still live and will be despatched prior to its release date via your chosen method of delivery.

No emails since then.



Oh I see, thanks.

Seems strange that they woul-

...

Ok, Game UK, make up your fucking mind already :psyduck:

A modern Robotnik sign post in the Sonic Generations 3DS classic levels! What is this I don't even...

Lol whut. That makes me wonder how much will the stories differ between both games.

Now that's wrong as fuck!

I can't agree more! Why in the world would SEGA put Eggman on an Eggman signpost!?

Something tells me each game is going to emphasize on one specific Eggman more than the other, considering CEgg is on the signpost for Console Generations, yet 3D Generations has MEgg.

I just realized how much effort Sega is pushing with even the smallest of details...

And if you stand still during three minutes, does he go away and leave you with a nice GAME OVER like in Sonic CD ? :v:

If I'm being completely honest and objective I actually think Modern Eggman/Robotnik is the only design they made better than the original.

It's purely for nostalgia reasons I want to see more Classic.

Amazon's stopped on the CE edition? ohfuck.

GAME and Gamestation need to get their head out of Mass Effect 3, Battlefield, Skyrim and COD's asses so that they'll actually get this CE. Elsewise, making it exclusive to Amazon, without officially stating from Sega, is extremely frustrating.

Unless they're waiting for the release build to implement that, nope.

Also, knew about all of the waiting poses except for Sonic 3D Blast's. That was a neat one to sneak in.

Anything Classic Sonic in this game seems to be great, hoping to see a lot more small details snuck into the levels.

I'm honestly shocked at the number of people across multiple boards who didn't realize his waiting animations came from the classic games. I mean... really? It wasn't obvious to anybody else?

I thought it was one of the first things people got excited about when they saw him, especially the lying down one. For whatever reason.

I think a lot of kids don't want to play, have never played or have never seen the 16 bit classics and therefore would have never known, and that's not including the ones that have spent five minutes with it or ones that don't even bother to let Sonic stand still.

Oh, I noticed them.

I just didn't notice they even incorporated the one from Sonic 3D Blast.
