Essentially, half the game (classic) is Sonic 4...

Hahaha fuck.

Well, to me it's more like what the Sega Ages titles ought to have been rather than were, at least in terms of production value.

Though there are lots of things I like about Sonic 4. And plenty I dislike too, but that's another matter.

I have to say I disliked Classic Planet Wisp at first but it's really grown on me. Just listen to it with the mindset that it's the last stage in the game*.

*I could be wrong about this but I'm almost positive from what we've seen that Act 1 is for whatever Sonic the game originally starred in (e.g. classic act 1/modern act 2 for the first three stages and modern act 1/classic act 2 for the others). This would make Classic Planet Wisp the last stage, and if so, that music actually fits extremely well.

My favorite part of the video is when they showed Sonic running straight into a wall and stopping, citing it as "clunky."

Judging from impressions here it sounds like the IGN video review is fuck-retarded, so it looks like I won't even be bothering with that.

Man, this soundtrack is incredible. Wish this game wasn't coming out on the same day that I have a massive exam though.

I'm having Hilary Goldstein flashbacks just thinking about it.

The best part about it is that instead of re-orienting himself, the player just boosts off into yet another wall. Totally the wrong way to react to that no matter what the controls are like.

Oh wow, they were right when they said they were going to make a more continuous Sonic plot. One of the final cutscenes explains what Eggman was doing right at the end of Sonic Colors while he was flying in space. I mean, previous games took place weeks/months apart, but this game's plot begins at the very end of Sonic Colors.

EDIT: WHY DID THEY HAVE TO INCLUDE THE SONIC 4 THEME. *vomits* It's not that the theme itself is bad, but when I hear it, it forces me to think of a very shitty game that I'm never playing again

So I've been listening to the OST via Youtube and yeah, it's pretty damn great. It's amazing just how much stuff they've managed to pack in there,

even as smaller tracks like the Spinball and Battle remixes.

Favourite track so far is definitely

Spoiler

Modern City Escape; I actually think I like it better than the original. The vocals have grown on me a lot, the new verse is great and the riffs sound way better.

WOW, Super Sonic Racing, since a lot of you guys on here hated this from the small preview, I thought it was OK, but DAT FULL TRACK, the guitar solos, the energy, everything, that's brilliant, possibly one of my faves from the OST so far.

[Blivsey]

PHAHAHA

This is why IGN needs to get multiple opinions from its staff before posting reviews. That guy sounded spiteful, alright?

[Master Emerald]

Why didn't Modern Chemical Plant get a Full Speed remix?

Actually, come to think? It's only really the guy who used the microphone. The writer of the review? Pure badass. Nails it.

[nicko]

My faviourite track has to be Modern Crysis city, that violin makes way epic.

[Tiranno]

Oh my...that Sonic 3D blast mix is beautiful.

[Wolf Rogers]

The Entire Death Egg Robot mix, just <3, phase 1 is just a straight up remake, which works great, but wow, listening to the base line getting more fast paced and "emergency" sounding as it hits phase 2 and the drums going more epic before an all out fast paced mix for phase 3. I don't care how the game plays anymore, thanks SEGA for at least giving this game the soundtrack it deserves!

[corneliab]

The Egg Dragoon mix is interesting. It definitely doesn't have as much "oomph" as the original, since they decided to make it a little moody. It's kind of similar to Egg Viper in that sense.
