Sonic Colors or Kirby's Epic Yarn

[Mr. sickVisionz]

Sonic Colors assuming that it's really going be a game that plays 100% like the daytime levels of Sonic Unleashed.

Sonic colors looks absolutely gorgeus. It looks miles better than anything else I've ever seen on Wii.

However, I don't understand the game, or any other 3D Sonic game really. There is no exploration, no real combat, no puzzles, no real platforming... what's the deal with the gameplay? It looks like the only thing you do is run as fast as you can without any challenge or depth...

Can somebody explain to me why Sonic games are more than that?

 

You can play unleashed in the dummy proof way of not doing anything, similar to how you can play old Sonic games by doing minimal exploration.  That's never how I played them though.  I played to get every ring or at least leave the level with 2 more lives than I started with.  If you play like that there's a lot to do.  Just looking at the guy playing colors I saw a lot of alternate paths that he never tried to do and a lot of stuff that he just auto-skipped past.

I wouldn't judge this game on how easy it is when you're not trying to play it with any skill and actively avoiding anything that would make it more enjoyable.
