Product Description

Sonic Generations is the highly anticipated video game title to celebrate Sonic the Hedgehog's 20th Anniversary. Delivering the definitive gaming experience for Sonic fans old and new, Sonic Generations Sonic the Hedgehog playable as both the much loved classic 1991 character, and the modern day video game hero he has become in this exciting new fast paced adventure.

Set across three defining eras from 20 years of Sonic the Hedgehog video game history, the instantly recognisable environments of Sonic Generations have been re-built in stunning HD and are now playable in both classic side scrolling 2D from 1991, as well as modern 3D style found in Sonic's most recent adventures. Each incarnation of Sonic in Sonic Generations comes complete with his trademark special move, Spin Dash and Spin Attack for Classic Sonic, and Homing Attack and Sonic Boost for Modern Sonic. An innovative new interactive menu system allows for complete immersion in Sonic's universe with favourite characters and hidden treasures gradually being revealed throughout the game.

Sonic's universe is thrown into chaos when a mysterious new power creates 'time holes' which pull him and his friends back through time. As a result he encounters some surprises from his past history including Classic Sonic, Sonic as he appeared in 1991. Modern Sonic and Classic Sonic must defeat this strange new enemy, save their friends, and find out who really is behind this diabolical deed.

AMAZING GAME!

If you grew up playing the Sonic series you will immediately feel right at home, as this takes our favourite blue hedgehog right back to his roots with a high-speed side-scrolling platform adventure that's been given a 21st century makeover thanks to the power of the 3DS.

Each level is split into three stages: Classic, Modern and Special. Unlike the PS3 and 360 versions of the game which give you both side-scrolling and free-roaming versions of the same areas to explore, the 3DS version sticks to the retro side-scrolling gameplay we all know and love. Rest assured though, that the Modern levels do feel very different to the Classic ones, thanks to Sonic's arsenal of extra moves and some very nifty camera angles which really make this game stand out from the crowd. After these have been cleared you are given the option of a Special stage, and Megadrive fans will feel right at home with this as it's a race to collect a Chaos emerald. Completing the main stages also opens up Boss levels, with a variety of returning foes including Dr Robotnik and Metal Sonic, to name but two.

Unlike some titles on Nintendo's latest handheld console the 3D effect actually adds to this game. There is a great sense of depth and speed when the 3D is cranked up to the max. I think I've given myself a headache now though, been playing it a bit too much!

The only things I dislike about this game is that it is so short, and the cutscenes are badly done. I have only had it a day and am already 2/3 of the way through the main mode, but there are missions and side quests to unlock so replay value seems to be pretty high. And it's so much fun to play anyway.

Personally, I have found most of the recent Sonic the Hedgehog games extremely poor overall to the point that I decided to stop playing them completely. However, when I saw that Sonic Generations contained "Classic Sonic" as well as levels from the older Sonic games of the 1990s, I decided to give this one a go for the nostalgia factor. So far, I have played a few levels of the game and have been pleasantly surprised. The Classic Sonic levels are brilliant - they have stuck to the original layout of the levels such as the Green Hill Zone from Sonic 1 and remakes of the original music scores are also used. The controls for Classic Sonic are the usual run, spin and jump combination so they're nice and easy to use.

The part of the game that I dislike are the "Modern Sonic" levels - these pretty much involve holding the boost button as much as possible whilst using homing attacks to launch Sonic towards various enemies, springs and flippers scattered around levels.

The game begins by launching you straight into a level without any story to start you off and give you any clue as to what is going on. The story is shown beginning after you finish the first level as Classic Sonic and you are shown a little scene of the modern Sonic and Tails chatting away, with the usual cheesy dialogue that is to be expected in the most recent Sonic games.

It's pleasant to come across remade music tracks throughout the game - for example, the level select music is like the level select menu music from Sonic Heroes.

Overall, I would recommend this game mostly for the nostalgia factor and the gameplay of the Classic Sonic levels. If, like me, you are not a fan of the more recent Sonic games but you did enjoy the older ones, then it is possible to tolerate going through the modern levels just to get to and enjoy the classic levels.

Bought this for my young grandson, after remembering the concept of the game from many years ago. Computer games come and go but Sonic has stood the test of time. No I am not an expert on computer games, far from it, but some things stick in the mind and I remember the original Sonic very well from my own children’s time.

I suppose a yardstick for any computer game is how long it can hold the attention of the player. In the case of Sonic, holding my grandson’s attention is not the problem, it is getting him to stop playing it, but with sensible parenting this is not too difficult.

Many people feel that playing computer games is a waste of time for children, but with this type of game it does encourage them to use their brains and also helps with them with their dexterity and perseverance. If only these skills could be transferred with the same enthusiasm to their schoolwork.

There may be more sophisticated games on the market now, but my grandson loves this one and that makes me happy, so I can recommend it for that reason alone.

I loved sonic from day 1, those 20 years ago and ever since I have played my fair share of Sonic games.
This is an excellent title for the 3DS and really shows that Sonic is still going strong.
The music, the graphics, the gameplay and the special Emerald stages all make for classic sonic! You have a 2D sonic level, and modern sonic level for each stage and these are true to the original remakes with eye popping 3D environments with remixes tracks of the original score which sound perfect.
True, the game is short but the replayability is more than enough with over 100 missions to unlock plus extras!
Another great game for the 3DS
