Generations PC Unleashed Porting - Dragon Road Demo

I can't wait to give it a shot. I've been seeding it to everyone, but I have to head to Boston to set up for PAX today. Oh well, when I get back, I'll finally play Sonic Unleashed the way it was meant to be played.

Without the werehog.

 

Well since Dario's new topic is not up yet, I'll just post this here:

To be honest, I never really followed the Generations modding topic that much. I felt if I was looking at it all the time it might take away the appeal of wanting to play it (a bit like when the community had pretty-much seen everything on Sonic Heroes, before it's release). And I was right to do this. I NEVER played unleashed, NEVER watched any/much footage of it after the initial trailer was out and NEVER thought the day-time stages would be this good!

I'm blown away by this project, that's all I can say. I thought the mod would replace stages in Generations itself. Instead, I'm presented with a gorgeous new world hub and new music to go with it!
I was also surprised to see red rings and unlocks, present in the mod, but are they tied to Generations and it's 'Red Ring Collector' Achievement or are these something else for us to do? (Yea, I've still got red rings to find in Generations)

My hats off to the team behind this, you know who you are and you deserve all the praise you've got coming from the community and anyone else that downloads/plays this!

 

So I just played through this and I'm damn impressed. There were some weird bugs like the lighting changes in the snow level and some occasional odd camera moments, but overall this is an impressive feat for a project that's only been in development for a little over a year. There is one aspect that disappointed me though. No Eggman Land. I haven't played through the entirety of the PS3 version of Unleashed because I don't own it, but would that stage be that difficult to implement? o_O

Spoiler

Also worth mentioning the game crashed when I tried to spindash as Classic Sonic in the first level. Not terribly surprised that happened but it's unfortunate no-one was ever able to get rid of that glitch.

Edit-

Worth mentioning I'm surprised how much better the level design is in Sonic Generations. o_O

 

I'm disappointed that Eggman Land wasn't in it, but I understand that some of the stuff in Eggman Land couldn't be replicated.
