Forums - Nintendo - First Sonic: Lost World Review is in from IGN! And it doesn't look good...

forethought14 on 18 October 2013

Edge gave it a 4/10, GameSpot gave it a 5/10, GamesRadar 4/5, Nintendo Life 7/10.....looks like it probably won't be as bad as Sonic 06 at least....The 3DS version is worse apparently.

People have to please understand that the Sonic Team can never create something that doesn't have problems for people....

Yeah I hear it's getting mixed reviews; some are even worse than IGN and some are better. Anyone knows if there's a demo for this game? I wanna try it now before buying it.



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

Eh. Just read the review. It seems like they just couldn't handle the fact that the game has mixed things up more than anything, despite the fact that it's exactly what a lot of people wanted.

The entire review reads like "it's a good game, BUT I WANTED THIS AND THAT AND I DONT LIKE NEW THINGS!". As others have said, I wait for more reviews. But I anticipate this will be a trend. Some high reviews and some low.

I agree about the tone of the IGN review, but there are quite a few reviews already and the highest I've seen is 7/10. :/

I saw that coming from a Galaxy away! The Sonic cycle continues I suppose?

What cycle?  Did you play Generations or Colors?

I should have said that it continues to live on, as in it's not forever gone. I was joking around, don't take that too seriously. Colors was good though!

True, and perhaps these reviews will have more legitimate flaws. But I'm going to read them and check, because being like Galaxy is not a bad thing for me.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

This is 4/5, 80% is better than 70%.

lol cool, you found one.

Anyway regardless of what the critics say, I'll try it. Hopefully I'll enjoy it and just conclude that the critics were being stubborn or something.

I'm also gonna be buying it, but probably not anytime soon. I guess I made a correct decision to not pre-order it.

Here's another one:

7.6/10, so they say it's "good".
