Sonic Generations Megathread II

Uuuh, how the hell do you hurt the final boss? I managed to do it once and then never again. I don't even know what the hell I did.

 

According to this site my system's at least good enough for the minimum. Great, I can get it tomorrow when maybe I'll have some time to actually play it.

I really like how that blue tint omnipresent on Classic Sonic's skin in the Console demos is gone in that PC shot. It's like Sonic Fan Remix all over again.

 

Ok for the final boss achievement, what exactly defines a "hit"? Can you not let the boss hit you or can you not even hit the environment?

 

Spoiler

I thought Eggman looked a little off, and I would have liked them to use a different voice actor, that voice doesn't fit that Eggman.

Hmm, seems I pass the minimum, and it looks like I'm pretty much on the Recommended. My CPU is only slightly short of the recommended, and though it complains about my GPU model, all the individual tests pass just fine.

 

You can't be staggered at all.

Which makes things interesting dodging that laser beam. The tracking on it is really good.

 

how this game got anything less than a 8/10 is beyond me!

 

For all y'all who responded to my comment, dear god fuck me for I am blind.

And Gene, doesn't that sorta make it like the original Perfect Chaos fight? I mean, when it comes down to it, those last hits in PC are a bitch because getting hit means having to reach "lightning-bolt" speed again, and good luck with that!

"What time is it?"

The ending cutscene was so good. The whole bit before the final boss was really cheesy and kinda embarassing to watch though. The Sonic 4 theme playing for Super Sonic's anthem is the greatest troll ever.

 

The final boss has homing lasers?

Spoiler alert!

 

That sort of thing should be easily hackable (well, Steam might be a hindrance, but not a big one). I've played the PC ports of Heroes and Riders in 1600x1200 although they did not originally support that resolution.

 

Anyone pay attention to the big clock section of Classic Rooftop Run? I couldn't help but notice this interesting coincidence...

 

Every 3D final sonic boss does. It's sorta... the thing with them.

 

Oh, Steam. Don't every change. :v:

When I get tougher PC parts I'll probably double dip for the PC version. Seems pretty awesome.

 

Remember how everyone laughed when this article was published back in 2009: http://www.1up.com/news/sega-expects-sonic-quality-improve

Who's laughing now?

 

Planet Wisp has one of the most amazing challenges ever.

Spoiler

Modern Sonic's "action" challenge, specifically. Morning (dusk?) on Planet Wisp looks absolutely fantastic, and the challenge itself was the only one of almost all the Modern Era Modern Sonic challenges that wasn't annoying.

 

Spoiler

The one where you go through the woods, which was never seen in the main act nor in colors?

I agree, that area looks incredible, and of the missions I've done, that is easily my favorite thus far.

 

my 360 LE is not getting to me until next week it seems so I bought it on steam for some early playing, really good game and runs great.

 

Oh man I love this game.

Runs so well on my computer aside from the areas with waterfalls in Chemical Plant. Doesn't seem to like those too much, as the framerate dips when I get near them (still very playable though).

It crashed on me during my 20th run through Green Hill in online mode.

 

Welp, just ran into my first glitch.

I was just racing against Shadow on Hard Mode, you know, trying to gather up some rings and rack up lives, and then..... I don't see the Chaos energy ball thingy spawn. And I'm starting to loop around the track now.

So I try to find Shadow, see why he's going so slow..... And then I see him, perpetually running into the wall.
