Wow, what the fuck? Is Ken still going to stick by his "but the assets!!!!!!" argument?

Well, at least the patch worked for any 16:9 resolution, even custom ones like 1440x810.

Yeah, I'm really pleasantly surprised by this. I still want to know why it wasn't like it in the first place though.

No idea, Sonic 4 Episode 1 and Sonic Adventure DX 2011 are stuck at a single resolution like Episode 2 was.

Speaking of Episode 1, is Episode Metal affected by the latest patch?

It should absolutely be. Episode Metal is built off of Ep 1 levels ported to Ep 2. There is nothing Ep 1 about it.

The path may also be different on localized versions of Windows, and ultimately the path depends on where you installed Steam.

The Little Planet orbiting makes sense. It only appears once a year near the planet IIRC, so MS having to fly his metal ass all the way back makes perfect sense, and I thought was kinda funny. What I don't get is why it seemed to resemble the Bad Future.

Finally got to play it today, and it's pretty fun. I do like it. Was kind of disappointed Metal didn't seem to have any powers (he could have had a couple of moves in place of the team button) and that it had no boss fight, but the cutscenes were awesome and any playble metal is good. Also his fight was pretty epic.

All in all I find this enjoyable, though some of the physics are still questionable (though negligably so) such as no momentum gained when rolling in the U shape in the casino night knockoff level, and the music still leaves something to be desired in a few locations. Also the first game that tails doesn't just feel like a worthless tagalong, since you can control the team. I like.

To make Classic Sonic look incompetent. I am joking of course but you can never tell with Sega.

If it's a bad future, then it means that Sonic didn't destroy all the generators or collect all the Time Stones, so Eggman would still be ruling Little Planet.

To be fair, the Death Egg Mk II is there a year after Sonic CD, and that doesn't look like much of a Good Future, is it?

Easier to re-use files from Sonic Generations that way! :p

[Master Emerald]

With anisotropic and antialiasing this game looks as pretty as Generations!

[Dark Sonic]

Ha, that's cute... no it doesn't look as good as Generations at all.

Wonder when they'll bother with an iPod update. Sega have been very unsupportive of Sonic 4 post release in terms of fixes.

There is a demo on iTunes now

Wonder what that's in aid of- they should focus on fixing the issues to get it to run properly on all the devices they say it can handle first frankly!

That might be why they've put a demo up? The more people who play it, the more feedback they can get about the issues.

Plus, it allows anyone who wants this game to try it and see if their device can handle it before wasting money on it.
