Sonic 4 Episode 1 was good but just good. With a few too many physics problems and other little niggles took away from the experience of racing around the place with a little blue hog from hedge.
Sonic Generations however, seems to be coming together quite well from what we’ve seen so far especially more recently as Sega have a released another short video showing 2 differing but altogether great modes of gameplay featuring both old and new versions of Sonic.
The first thing we noticed while playing as the older-gen Sonic was his size compared to the rest of his game world, it was almost resembling the likes of Alice in Wonderland when she took a bite out of some food that was labeled with ’eat me’. Though the greenery seemed more giant than we were originally used to, nonetheless, it didn’t detract from the gameplay at all.
Physics were spot on, graphics are amazing, and is definitely a brilliant return to Sonic’s heyday.
What changes when you switch to modern Sonic though is how the same level is played out. Sonic Generations goes all 3D on you as you race through the same level but from slightly different, more dynamic perspectives. Think of Sonic Unleashed (yes, we know it’s not the greatest of games) and you’ll get the picture of how things play out with Sonic as he is today.
Check out the awesome video below…
Rather more obvious is the fact that we’re very excited for this new installment to the Sonic franchise and can’t wait to play the game in it’s entirety.
But what do you think? You looking forward to Sonic Generations? Leave us your comments below.

I just want the music to be the same as the classic levels, not remade!
