No idea really... but there has been waaaay too many sonic games on the Wii really. Plus Sonic Colours is overrated


Boo!  If anything Sonic Colors is underrated.

It's probably the best 3D Sonic game ever made...


Sonic Generations is better.

Obviously, it's not on the Wii.

Which really is nothing much to me! Put aside the Sonic cycle and let's focus on the game without comparing it to its predecessors. If we compare it to other platformer games (the marios, DKCR, Kirby etc..), then I really think it lacks a lot.

It's a decent game don't get me wrong, but not anywhere as good as people make it out to be. And the horrible voiceacting!!! >.> 


If you compare it to the BEST platforming games which is what you are doing, it does lack a bit.  It is a better game than Kirby's Epic Yarn...

The voice acting in Sonic games has always been bad, so what's your point?  It's actually improved a little bit.


I really should mention that I haven't played a 3D sonic game before. So maybe that's why I'm harsh on it. And sure I'm comparing it to the best platoformers of this gen, because I felt that the standard has been raised by quite a lot, but well if you play a shooter that ain't Killzone or CoD, and it ain't up to par with those games, you're definitely gonna think: "This ain't no CoD or KZ, so what's the hype all about?".

Maybe you should try playing one before commenting on it.  I'm just saying...

But aren't we commenting on Sonic Colors? :P I don't need t play the older sonics to tell if this game is good. What you're saying is that it used to be crap but now it's decent, sure relatively it's a hell of a lot better, but it's still not great. That's what I'm saying. And the user rating of 8.4 (it used to be even higher) is not deserved imo! But that's my opinion anyways :/

No it really is a better game, controls are tighter, visuals are better(obviously), Sonic is faster, level design is better, its longer, ass loads of extras, hell the damn story and voice acting is better. They took everything good about Colors and made it better.

The HD version of Sonic Colors would not run properly on Wii, there is way too much crap going on. They already said they focused on the HDs because they wanted to really turn Sonic up to 11. Good choice IMHO, the game is actually way better than Colors and this is coming from a guy who loved Colors and just bought the DS version. However I dont know how the 3DS got a version and I dont know why they dont port that one to Wii, sure it wont be the same game as the HDs, but its something. They probably will port it too WiiU to take advantage of the early adopters.
A better question is why is there on SonicCD not being released on WiiWare?? That makes no sense. Maybe Sega & Ninty are not that tight anymore.


Maybe they hired back some old time Sega employees who still have grudges from the Genesis/Snes war? :)

We will find out how tight they actually are once the new London game sales star pouring in.Good sales equals best of friends!


Umm No, they have been tight ever since Sega bowed out of hardware development, they were practically sucking Ninty off when GC first came out. Why do you think those SA games were rereleased exclusivley??? Matter of fact Sonic Heroes was supposed to be GC exclusive, I know because that was the whole reason I got GC in the first place. I think that the Sega games, like MADworld, HOTD overkill, etc. didnt do as well as they hoped so they are cutting back a bit? just specualtion

I haven't played it so I can not comment.

Seriously, it's good to hear that most people have a high opinion of it.

@kopstudent, I see what you're saying but why are you comparing Colors to DKC and Mario. One is a 2d/3d hybrid and the others are straight 2d. Sure i would agree that they are technically better, but not all platformers are created equal. Thats like comparing Bioshock to COD, sure they are FPSs but they are very different.

Still Colours didn't really captivate me like those two series... I just felt it was a bit flat and predictably. But maybe it's the game that Sonic needed to get back to its best
