Even ones that I didn’t like in previous games have all their negative qualities reduced, for example, I think there’s one spot on a ‘sky’ stage where you can fall into a bottomless pit. Instead the enjoyment is finding new paths and secrets in levels you thought you knew inside out.Īll the levels are great. I even think it’s better the second time araround because now I’m not wondering, and therefore dreading, what level might come next. And yet I keep replaying levels over and over. Up there as one of my fave games of the year.Ĭlick to expand.I reached the final level just a day after buying the game but took me a few more days to get all the chaos emeralds and just over half of the “token” stages (I have no idea what those grey medal things are called in game). It has surpassed my hopes by far this one. The upgraded music warrants the play through alone IMO! Although I haven't really explored in this initial play through so have without doubt missed a load of them. I started my play through with Sonic, but next time I'l go through as 'Tails alone' so I can hopefully find more special stage rings as they've been hard to come by with just Sonic. The nods to previous games, the way they've changed classic levels, bosses, brought things back from older games and built on them etc - it's everything and more for a Sonic fan - or for those who played and liked the originals. As far as fan service goes, it is absolutely incredible. I've basically grinned from ear to ear the whole time I've played it. Regardless of how short it is (or how long you make it), if you're a Sonic fan then this game is an absolute must buy. I feel like I'm nearing the end and another one starts. I think you could blitz through the levels and have it done in a fairly short amount of time.īut it keeps surprising me with how many levels there are. Post away and let us know what console you're playing on and how you find it! I kept dying over and over again at the start of Green Hill by running into the ladybird - despite being told to jump over it each time!įunny how that's such vivid memory at that young age, but it set my love of video games (and Sonic) so this game is like an absolute trip down memory lane with added extras to enjoy all over again. I have a particular soft spot for Sonic as Sonic 1 was the first game I ever played as a wee 5 year old! I remember it well as my cousin (who is much older) was babysitting me and my sisters and brought round his MegaDrive for us to play. I haven't read any spoilers or watched any YouTube vids of gameplay so most of it should be a surprise! The upgraded music was sublime - cannot wait to play more and see what stages they have used. To say I didn't want to go to work is an understatement - it's bad enough going without downloading this first thing! I downloaded the game this morning before work and had a quick blast through the first level. Seeing as it's available on all the consoles, people may discuss the game in several different places and it's clearly going to be so awesome that it needs its own home!
