Seeing as how a mod closed the other one, I have to make a new topic to give my review on this. Now, I will start by saying that this is actually my first impression and not an overall review as I have only played a little bit of it. Next, I will establish the fact that I am reviewing the XBox 360 version. The reason this is important is because it is DIFFERENT from the Wii version. Check out various background info if you don't believe me. According to the information, the levels were designed quite differently for the Wii version. In fact, a completely different team worked on the Wii version than that of the XBox 360 one. The only thing that was the same is, obviously, the storyline. Controls, graphics, voice acting, overall gameplay, it's all different. Now, with that in mind, I will also establish that I am only expecting them to do better than the great disappointment 2 years back. (You all know what game I'm talking about.) So, understand that I am not setting myself up for as much disappointment as a lot of you are. You make the mistake of setting the bar high and you're bound to be disappointed. So, with all that out of the way, on to my first impressions. Okay, first, I can safely say that the XBox 360 version is definitely taking advantage of the extra power at their hands. What I understand is that Sonic is meant to be one thing, FAST! They truly got that right. Sonic is FAST in his normal form. On top of that, you can control Sonic quite well in this game. The controls of his normal form are simple and easy enough for anyone to follow. I'm not one bit surprised by the fact that Sonic's werehog form moves slower. After all, when he transforms, Sonic definitely puts on quite a bit of muscle mass in his upper body and that's bound to effect the speed of his super fast legs. So, with that in mind, there's NO reason to complain about the speed, unless he moves as slow as a slug, which he DOESN'T! Considering everything, the speed of the werehog form is pretty decent. The combat takes some getting used to. The controls are tricky and require the method of "button mashing mastering". This only makes the game hard, not bad. (Remember, hard =\= bad. It's broken = bad.) Making the game hard is okay in my book. The bosses obviously have a hidden way of being beaten. Once you figure that out, you will have an easier time, but they can still be tough. To be honest, I really don't have any complaints. Even the load time is good. I say that if it's better than the crap we got two years back, it's good in my book. Obviously, it's better. No having to wait nearly 2 minutes to have someone say just one line is quite the improvement. It's practically instant and you get to the action a lot faster. Having to only wait about 30 seconds? (Seriously, I timed it.) Hey, at least it's better. No complaints at my first impressions means a good start for the game. I'll continue my review when I get more in. For now, I'll see ya later! :) |

Yes, there is an option to change the language from English to Japanese. I wouldn't understand a word though, so I stick with English. :P |

Okay, I know it's against the rules to double post, but this is an important update I feel EVERYONE should know about with the game. From Screwattack Forums, the differences between the 360 and Wii Versions:
If you ask me, the Wii version seems like a disappointment when compared to the 360 version. I'm glad I got the 360 version. :) |

[size0]I'm with you guys...I was just looking at screens and videos for the Wii version and it doesn't look all that great when compared to the 360 version. I myself just got the 360 version the other day and it is awesome! Good controls, good graphics, fun levels...not much to complain about. |

I don't know what kind of improvements they could make to the PS3 version that doesn't come out until before the middle of next month. Aside from a graphics update, I guess there's more they could add. After all, 50 GB is A LOT of space for a game. Anyways, this game is great. I'm finally getting the controls down. The 360 version just has FUN written all over it. It's just too enjoyable! :) Oh, and here's something funny from the game: Werehog Sonic when you get D Rank: Ugh! Can I start over? LOL! One of the best reactions EVAR! |

[size0]What even funnier is the music you get after beating a level with an E rank. You know the victory music that's usually in the end? If you get an E, the music is played really terribly and off tune, it sounds like a 3rd grade band is playing it. Thanks for rubbing the fail in our faces, Sega. x3 |

I didn't like the game, that's my opinion. Honestly, you have to be a dedicated Sonic fan to like it, and I am not. ^^; Respect my opinion as I respect yours. |

Judging by many NON-biased reviews I've read. The game sounds like it is AMAZING for the Sonic levels. (Psyguy from fireball20xl.com said the game would be an automatic buy for anyone if it was just the Sonic levels for the game.) It's the werehog levels that can make or break it for many people. |
