Playing it, I've had a contant stupid grin on my face.
Sonic Generations is the accumilation of 20 years of Sonic's adventures from the original 16-bit Sonic The Hedgehog to the Wii's Sonic Colors. It's colorful, beautiful, challenging and joyous. An amusing narrative wraps the dimmensional crossing of "classic" Sonic with "modern" Sonic as they battle an evil that theatens all.
Besides A hefty main quest mode, where all main levels contain a "classic" and "modern" take, there are dozens and dozens of side missions to compete in. The transition between the two different gameplay styles is surprisingly smooth. The level design is awesome. It's fun and challenging stuff, embodied by gorgeous visuals and audible delights. Those visuals. Yeah. The joy of candy bright colors representened in heavily detailed HD worlds. It's something of a lost art this generation.
The season of hard hitters is now. Batman: Arkham City and Uncharted 3 is out now while the next Elder Scrolls adventure launches just around the corner. Don't pass up Sonic this holiday season. It is the return of classic 16-bit joy right alongside Sonic's modern age grand adventures. It will put a smile on your face. ;)
