Sorry Star Trek fans, Sonic Generations does not feature Kirk or Picard.
Sonic Generations starts great. When I started playing the game, three acts in, I was on the phone with Nick. “Hey, this game might be better than the console version,” I said. “I'm not surprised,” his response. All the while, I thought to myself, these stages really capture the feel of the original Genesis Sonic games.
This standalone expansion will introduce other countries into the fray.
Total War: Shogun 2 was a standout title in the long running Total War franchise that revitalized the series in the eyes of many gamers. Its merits include a score of 4 out of 5 stars and financial success, with 600,000 copies sold after just a few weeks on the market. After the release of Rise of the Samurai, the second expansion, Fall of the Samurai is planned for release in March of 2012.
Chili Dogs. Dr. Robotnik. Spin Dash. Death Egg. All things forgotten in the history of Sonic, and all things that make their return in Sonic Generations.
Sonic Generations begins, aptly enough, with classic Sonic playing through a new stage based on the original first Sonic stage: Green Hill Zone. Sure enough, there are all sorts of enemies like Motobugs (lady bugs on wheels) and Choppers (piranha bots that bite at Sonic while he crosses a bridge.) Sonic runs through a two-dimensional plane through the entirety of the stage, and with just the press of a button (or the traditional down + the jump button) he can charge up a spin-dash and take off.

This looks like a great Sonic game! Wait...what?
If you were around for the bitter, vicious, and petty wars between the Super Nintendo and the Sega Genesis, you can’t help but feel at least a little bad for Sega’s blue speedster with the 90s ‘tude. While Mario went on from the 16-bit era to have some of his greatest adventures, Sonic has had a slow, steady slide into irrelevancy. While he has his staunch supporters and always sells well to the kids, there is a segment of the hardcore gaming community that keeps wondering when that next great Sonic game is going to come along. With each new release, there’s always the talk that “This is the one! This is the game that makes Sonic great again!” And the fans buy into it, and more often than not, they end up disappointed, and have to seek solace in their fan fiction.
A brief look at some of the modernized bosses from Sonic titles for the Genesis, that Sonic will encounter when this game ships this November for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Nintendo 3DS.
Check out some re-imagined levels from Sonic's 3D era in this new trailer!
Sonic didn't fair well on the PlayStation 3, but how does it play on the 360?
