Sonic Generations Megathread

I don't get any of the rage for Shadow being included in this seeing as this game is supposed to be celebrate the Sonic History which Shadow is clearly a part of.
That's like eradicating Thomas Edison from History books because some people thought he was a dick, for an exaggerated example. : B

Also, the no-stripes thing is ridiculous -- at those angles, Shadow's arm-and-leg-stripes are just plain not visible, that's all.

 

So appearently the Render isn't original:


Thanks to ArtFenix for finding this. What game is that Sonic render from anyways? or is it just a custom?

 

Actually you're right.



I just, for whatever reason, thought his stripes were on the front of his legs, not the sides. Oh well, problem averted.

Also, Gene, you should note that there's nothing new and "edgy" about his new look other than his pose. If anything his Sonic Channel rendering (right) is a bit better because his coloring is tanner than Sonic, like it was in SA2. Then again, the Unleashed art style (which is apparently Sonic Channel's art style) is vibrant poppy colors, so it only makes sense, I guess. Still, the subtlety of Shadow's design has been apparent pre-Generations; this render only shows that the leak list was right and Shadow's getting his ass kicked on the Ark. Again. Probably by two hedgehogs this time.

 

Lol Milse! :v: reminds of of the knuxs' misspell back in 2006.

The new shots are 3DS GHZ (all of them), 4 of CNZ, and 1 of MHZ. HD version has no new shots.

If nobody remembers the misspell of 2006:

 

There's only 7 Levels for the 3DS version? I guess 1 for each emerald then?

Green Hill
Casino Night
Mushroom Hill
Emerald Coast
???
???
???

Then bosses and rivals?

 

That Shadow doesn't even look like part of the original scan to me. I could be wrong.

Edit: or are you just pointing out that it's a similar pose as Sonic's?

 

Huh, I figured it'd end up looking something like that.

Spoiler

And maybe I'm reaching rather far here, but it kind of looks like that thing has a mustache. I get the feeling this is not a regular monster of the week, but something pertaining to Eggman. Total speculation, though.

 

Looks kind of like Eggman's nega-wisp machine at the end of Colors

 

New trailer for the 3DS version on this page: http://www.nintendo.co.jp/n10/conference2011/titlelist/sonic_generations/index.html
Shows Green Hill, Mushroom Hill and the special stage.

 

Yeah it was just a quick 'shop by an SSMB member to prove that the pose they used for shadow was already used for sonic.

I can't seem to get the video through normal means, is there anyway to rip that vid?

 

So Modern Mushroom Hill still has the Genesis music, but the Heroes Special Stage doesn't seem to control like ass. Still gonna hold out on this one.

 

Ah, the Timer Eater image was taken down... well, I will try not to look at it anyway from now on. Gonna surprise myself!

Anyway, Sonic Generations 3DS is looking real good to me. Even though it's kind of disappointing that it's a sidescrolling rush-type title, it's looking more like a 3DS game than a DS game to me, considering the way it originally looked.

Also, I think the Modern Mushroom Hill is still a placeholder. It would be incredibly stupid if it were not.

 

Metal Sonic confirmed to be in the 3Ds version. (yay)

 

Wow seriously? The Time Eater image was gone that quickly?

 

Mirror plz. I'd also like to take a look.

It really shows nothing. Just a small icon with a face.
