Unfortunately I'm in class for the next few hours so I can't check. I barely used the spindash at all during my run. I definitely don't remember anywhere that really required it if you had some built up speed. I can check when I get home, but that will probably be 2-3 hours before people are picking up midnight releases. Also for those complaining about framerate problems while playing in 3D. They are almost nonexistent now. I noticed a few small drops when there was a lot on the screen in the second demo, and for the final I only noticed one place it took a hit during modern Sonics first GHZ stage.
Yeah problem being that people do give a fuck about score at least the mindless ones. Will it stop me from buying the game? No, review scores don't run my life I love this game more then any other current ones. Will it help SEGA/Sonic Team's image of having good sonic games? Yes, I want this game to score at least at colors level to prove to those mindless idiots (we all know who) that SEGA/Sonic Team isn't in the same rut they think it has been and has been producing good games. I don't mind some dents here and there, no game is perfect. but at least scoring around 75-80 is strong enough to prove a point. Don't get snippy, I was just curious. I don't like gameinformer and gamesradar for other reasons then a review score.
Quick question, anyone knows how to do that speed boost effect for the music in Modern's music? Seems like a Phaser effect but I can't get it with Audacity.
In the demo I managed to stand on top of a motobug and walk around it before I got hit again. Lasted about five seconds but it was pretty lol worthy. By the way, the 3DS version might be delayed until March 31st, 2012 according to Amazon. Good, because the 3DS version is horribad as it is. They should just cancel it in my opinion but whatever. Also Nintendo Power is backing this claim I hear.
Damn, but didn't we just get a confirm from SEGA's mouth awhile ago saying it was going to come out later november? seems like such a long time for a handheld port.
I would like to remind those going for a midnight launch this evening - and the rest of you Americans who will be getting the game tomorrow - that half of this board will not get the game until Friday. Please keep using spoiler tags where necessary until at LEAST Saturday night.
Or a combination of a low and high pass filter. Between the two the high pass filter is a lot more important, though some of the really high frequencies may need to be trimmed.
I don't know if it's been posted yet, but for those doing midnight opening tonight, GameStop has a site up to find local participating stores. Also, it confirms that tonight's opening is a dual opening for both Uncharted and Sonic, so they know we're coming. I wonder how we'll access Casino Night - I'm thinking it'll be another entry in the hub world, but we'll see.
Ya know what? a few of these tracks felt off for me, so I'll tell ya what I'll do: If you want me to, I'll do remixes/remakes of tunes you want replaced in the game. I'm not exactly sure how you'll get 'em replaced, but I'm sure one of you knows how it works (exactly what file type does it need to be to work in there again? ). But still, since I got free time, I'm game for this madness. Tell me what tune ya want replaced, and I'll try my best. Don't expect it done right away, but it'll be done in a reasonable time frame. Nothing could possibly go wrong with this, right? :v: So then......if ya got any requests, lemme know, ok?
The fuck are you babbling about? Have you played it? It plays like Sonic Rush. If you dislike Sonic Rush, I can understand, but it's absolutely far from horribad. Also, I'm speaking as someone who has played it.
Sonic Colors DS review doesn't negate what he said about Sonic Colors Wii. Dude hates Sonic, to the point where Sega makes fun of him specifically for it.
Whoever was asking, yes, CNZ is accessed from the hub world; it's got hub music like everything else. Speaking of hub music, the hub music numbered after 12 (that is, everything prefixed with EMBB064) (which IIRC goes to the final boss area) has a couple spaces. There's nothing corresponding to 13 (EMBB065) or 17 (EMBB069). They're on either side of the music for the rival battles. 18 (EMBB070) is the CNZ hub music. This may not mean anything, but it could mean they're reserving these things for additional DLC. Either way, 13 might have been associated with a rival battle from the classic era given that Metal Sonic has 14 (EMBB066); 17 could have been a stage or another rival battle, from the modern area then if the latter. Lending plausibility to the "scrapped/DLC rival battles" is that each era has exactly one other notable rival battle, featuring a character introduced during it at least. Hmmm...
Or he just didn't like Colors Wii, and believe it or not, there are valid reasons for someone to not like the game. SEGA trolled him already before he did the review. Anyway, this is getting off-topic. A question for those that spoiled the game for themselves already: is there a CGI intro? The trailers seem to show clips of it but I can't find it on Youtube.
Regarding the low review scores... look, the way Kirby's Return to Dreamland has been received has really taught me something about the modern mainstream game reviewers. The vast majority of them praised the gameplay and nostalgia, but compared the game very unfavorably to, of all things, Kirby's Epic Yarn. They said that RtD was lacking in originality compared to the Kirby spinoff games like Mass Attack and whatnot, implying that it's just not enough for a game to be a good platformer nowadays. Action platformers -- Sonic games -- are my favorite genre to this day. But among the reviewers (and, I'd assume, a large subset of the younger gaming crowd), it's seen as outdated and old just by the virtue of its genre. And most of those reviewers, especially here in America, might not be nearly as nostalgic for Sonic as they are for Mario (whose NSMB games have gotten really favorable scores in spite of being retro throwbacks). So while I'd like to see it getting 9s, and for me personally it'll probably be UnendingOrgasm/10, that its getting mostly 8s is a great indication of how awesome it is.
