Sonic Generations

Only problem is, that it just says November 2011, so it could be any of the 30 days of November. Until we get more news about the release date, November 2011 is what we have to rely on for now.

Ugh, I just skip your posts. :|

It looks really good. I hope they include more stages from Sonic Adventure. I'd also like to see the Chao Gardens return...

It would be nice to see another Chao Garden on a Sonic game. But I highly doubt it'll happen.

Know what I'd love to see though? More characters beside Sonic playable.

Of which I would like to see, more characters playable and Chao Garden, unfortunately for both, I don't think it's going to happen for Sonic Generations. It's unlikely. I think they're just sticking with Modern Sonic and Classic Sonic. However, it would be nice that Tails and others make an appearance.

Raising Chao is always a fun thing to do, but I doubt it again this time.
 
Hmm...more City Escape Footage. One of them looks tricky, that big truck is after you for a longer period of time.

"It May Not be What, but How that Interests You

If you read our site carefully, you may have come across a rather strange comment on one of our stories yesterday from a person only identified as X.  X claimed to be a tad disappointed upon hearing yesterday’s reveals of both City Escape from Sonic Adventure 2 and Spagonia from Sonic Unleashed into Sonic Generations…because he also claimed to know what else is in store, and those reveals matched with a list of stages planned for the finished console version of the game.

For reference, here are the stages X claimed to know about, with already confirmed stages cited by an asterisk:

    Sonic 1 – Green Hill *
    Sonic 2 – Chemical Plant
    Sonic 3 and Knuckles -  Sky Sanctuary
    Sonic Adventure – Speed Highway
    Sonic Adventure 2 -  City Escape *
    Sonic Heroes – Seaside Hill OR Casino Park / Bingo Highway
    Sonic 2006 – Crisis City
    Sonic Unleashed – Spagonia / Rooftop Run Day *
    Sonic Colors – Planet Wisp

Some of you may have seen this list, and even commented on the remark.  Many have noted the list has popped up elsewhere, with the community attempting to reason its invalidity.  But we were able to check up on X, and we matched the mysterious identity with an actual source, who agreed to tell us more details on condition of anonymity.  After TSSZ spoke with the source, we are comfortable treating the above list as a confirmed, near final list of stages planned for the base XBOX 360 / PS3 edition of Sonic Generations.

The list, by default, affirms other elements of the game.  Among them is the treatment of Sonic 3 and Sonic and Knuckles as a single title.  And by process of elimination, other games like Sonic CD and Shadow the Hedgehog appear out of the running.  Chemical Plant could technically be considered a water stage with its Mega Mack acting similarly to water, but it would be the only such stage in Generations.  The lack of a proper labyrinth, lava, and ice stage is also notable in the above list, but it doesn’t mean some or all won’t pop up in the 3DS edition.

You will also notice uncertainty on what the Sonic Heroes stage will be.  According to our source, who received the information ” a few weeks back,” that decision was not final, with Seaside Hill and some form of Casino Park and/or Bingo Highway in the running.  Given that Casino Night will already be represented in the 3DS version of Generations, making that call may not be as simple as it would appear.

How do we know all this?  Our sourced allegedly received a rundown of what to expect in connection to ongoing development of the Archie Comics adaptation to Sonic Generations, which will be out later this year to coincide with the game’s release.  Sega disclosed the full list of zones as well as the full storyline to Generations in preparation for that adaptation.  Our source could not disclose more complete story details as they were received second-hand, only that the adaptation was not finalized at the time.  If nothing else, it appears the comic counterpart will follow the console version the closest.

What our source did re-affirm, however, were additional missions inside Generations beyond the base acts.  Many of you may have seen those rings in the interactive Green Hill menu, not unlike what was seen in Sonic Colors.  Our source says as missions are completed, those rings will turn gold.  Whether those missions are in the form of acts or some other mode remains to be seen.

That is what our source knows, and it is now what you know.  Again, given who the source is, we feel comfortable treating this as mostly confirmed and not as rumor, with the caveat of that one detail regarding Sonic Heroes.  We also want to again note this is for the XBOX 360 and PS3 editions, not taking into account the 3DS version at all, and not taking into account any hopes for DLC.  We will certainly follow up on this when our special correspondent attends Sonic Boom later this evening, where we suspect a lot of people will now have a lot of questions."

Wow, a lot of stages will be the ones from the past Sonic games...interesting. Plus, I would be able to play the levels from the Sonic games that I have not played before.
 
I don't think this will mark any revival for the Sonic series. The game concept is nice, but I'd much rather see another Adventure  title make its way to the market. I liked the fact I could play as other characters, it's a feature I miss that hasn't appeared in the last few games.

I hope the ones without the * will be official, because all those stages are awesome.

I'd love to see Stardust Speedway from Sonic CD, but I doubt that  would happen.

That stage was pretty amazing.

Wish they picked a better stage from S3&K, like IceCap.

The demo for Sonic Generations is beautiful. <3
I agree, it was very nice to see the game play in actual 3D and the Green Hill itself.

A shame we only get to have it for 20 days though, and I was hoping to be able to try modern Sonic in Green Hill Zone. Plus the fact that it doesn't record your score or give you a rating is upsetting, I was looking forward to playing over and over again trying to get an S rank.

Yes, it was not like the Sonic Heroes Demo that came with Mario Kart: Double Dash!!.

Also, the 3DS version will have StreetPass and Online play, meaning that we can play two player over the internet as cooperation. And it seems like the the special stages will be very similar to the ones from Sonic Heroes. I sort of wished for Blue Sphere.
