the 3ds version looks fine, were some people expecting it to look as good as the console version? cause if so thats a bit crazy

I'd say it looks admirably close considering the power disparity between the two platforms. It's easily one of the most impressive 3DS games I've seen.

and i would agree. If the gameplay doesnt suck ill probably get the 3ds version and not even care about the WIi U one.

Game looks great. Can't wait to hear "SEGA!" when I first fire it up!

"Games are a trigger for adults to again become primitive, primal, as a way of thinking and remembering. An adult is a child who has more ethics and morals, that's all. When I am a child, creating, I am not creating a game. I am in the game. The game is not for children, it is for me. It is for an adult who still has a character of a child."

For a game like Sonic 60FPS makes much more sense than forcing 1080p.

This game looks pretty decent. I wonder how it would look on next gen hardware. O.O

60fps is much more important than 1080p. 720p to 1080p isn't a big difference unless you sit too close or have a ginormous screen. 30fps to 60fps on a fast paced game, however, is much more noticeable.
Sonic Team made the right choice here.

Is the difference between 1080p and 720p not that noticeable on a TV? Because on a PC playing a game in 720p is like having my eyes slowly cut out ¬_¬ (that's a serious question by the way, all the games I've played on a console have been 720p so i have no way to compare).

This is something i have noticed; when watching tv, the difference between 720p and 1080p is just so miniscule. In fact i'm not sure i can really tell the difference.

But when i play games on my pc and turn the res down to 720p, it looks like shit compared to 1080p, so a huge difference.
