Unexpected? Let me explain...

A fantastic game. Not just a step in the right direction, but an unequivocal success. In fact, it's the best entry in the series since the Blue Blur's 16-bit heyday. [Dec 2010, p.78]

Straight off Metacritic! So, is this the sign for things to come? I sure do hope so, because this game looks kick-ass!

:-o

well that is nice!

Sweeeet. After the horrific disappointment of Sonic 4, I can't wait to play a good Sonic game again. Awesome to hear this, and the review is from Nintendo Power . . . might want to provide a source in the OP.

so Sonic Team seems to finally be getting their act together. nice. im actully wanting this game now. though we'll see what other scores show.

Just thought I'd throw this in:

From GAF: I wrote the Sonic Colors review for NP, and for what it's worth, I didn't review any of those previous titles. If I had, I probably would have given Sonic and the Secret Rings a 7.0 and Sonic Unleashed a 6.5. (I haven't played through Sonic and the Black Knight yet.) I'm not saying that to throw my colleagues under the bus--reviews are just one person's opinion--but to help folks calibrate where that 9.0 for Sonic Colors is coming from. It's a hell of a lot of fun, and I think you guys are really going to enjoy it.

Anywho, glad to see that people are really enjoying the game. I've got it pre-ordered and ready to be bought. ^_^

Sonic its not my kind of game, but this is good news for the fans of the saga.

well that's good to hear!

Excellent!!

I'll wait to see more reviews.
