Forums - Nintendo - Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric has its fair share of bugs

Looks good for a alpha demo. This game isn't coming until 2015, right?

I mean Sega wouldn't release something that unpolished.

Where are the reviews? Doesn't this game come out tomorrow or something...?



Its own existence is a bug, a bug in our life.



I'm now filled with determination.

Shading seems shit. Amusing character idle animations, though.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Looks like reviewers got the game during the wekeend and there is midnight embargo for the reviews, they will crush the game anyway, they will mention that it is not fast enough, but I am actually getting interested on the game, the plataforming looks solid, the exploration is nice, the fast sections are there but they are not the full game.

OT: it looks like it has bugs, but some clipping problems are not too hard to patch if really required.



.....I kind of want to play Lost World now......

Yeesh. This game does not feel polished at all.



What I want to know is how two games published under the same label (Sonic Boom) at the same time can have such incredibly different levels of quality? I've heard a good bit positive about Sonic Boom: Shattered Crystal, what the heck happened to Sonic Boom: Rise of the Lyric? I mean, I wouldn't say it looks terrible; I've played terrible games and so far this doesn't reach those lows. But It looks mediocre in many ways and unoptimized and just lazy in so many aspects.

Frankly - and I know this is going to possibly make some old school Sega fans squirm perhaps - maybe Nintendo should have taken the reigns here? They do have a better pedigree with 3D action platforms. Even if it was a collaboration, at least the game would have been put through the rigors of Nintendo's QA.
