yeap way too fast for my poor eyes after a day at work.... but it does look like one of the best modern version of sonic when it comes to atmosphere..... it did feel like the good old times of sega..... won't buy it though

on that note when are we gonna get a new platformer like kameo 2 or something ???

Sonic did move way too fast. But I think the biggest problem was the lag, made the game very hard to play.

I had heard that the ps3 demo had lag issues or did you play the 360 version?

SA 2 nailed all the physics of 3d Sonic??? LOL!!! Yeah because Tails controlling a robot in a poorly made shooting section and Knuckles looking for Chaos Emeralds with horrible camera control is what Sonic is all about. Sonic Heroes is the true 3d Sonic that got it.
As for this game. I love it, better than four but still not on the level of Genesis era. I'll say this the 2d sections are way better than those found in Colors, not that was floaty

I was talking about the Sonic levels. Look at this video, it's fast, it flashy, there are multiple paths. But the best thing about this game is that you can calculate jumps and the game actually required some input from the player, the test of skill actually makes the game FUN.

I don't know what some of you are on about. This isn't terrible...it isn't amazsing either. Its kinda mediocre but Id be shocked to have them give the best in a demo. Also its in 3D on the 360 amd looks kinda nice even though frame rate needs some serious work...

The Sonic/Shadow levels were fine, too bad that was only 1/3 of the game

He feels to fast. Not easy keeping up with what's on the screen and the jump feels like it has a delay. I actually prefer Sonic 4. Then again, I played the iOS version. Don't know about how the console version performs.
