At least I can take some consolation in the fact that there probably won't be any uploads of the full soundtrack until the PC release. :gbsmith:

Given there's an OST of Splatoon 2 floating around I wouldn't count that chicken as unhatched.

Oh yeah, baby. Frame your suffering as a masterpiece. Only one problem - no one's watching. It's boring, buddy, boring as death.
Woke up at 5am before work to play this. Got 2 Chaos emeralds in the first zone, chasing a UFO owns. Sonic 3 special stages own. Game loving rules. Now I'm at work and wanna go fast.

Not related to Mania, but man it would be really cool if SEGA took a page from Volition and released the character creator for Sonic Forces a couple weeks in advance so you could just mess around with that and make a character in preparation for the game's proper release.

My AC unit blew out for my apartment last week, after many delays they said that they're coming in to fix it tomorrow.

Powers gonna be out randomly as they rewire/dig poo poo up in my living room and whatnot so I'm debating double dipping just so I can play it tonight. Someone stop me.

Anyway, Polygon gave it a 7 but the reviewer seems like a complete idiot.

quote:

While these are primarily issues for Sonic moving at speed, slowing things down can occasionally pose its own frustration. Sonic has always been terrible with precise platforming. The controls and animation priority are just not up to the demands of pixel-perfect precision (and honestly, some hazards seem to hit Sonic beyond where it seems like they should be able).

For whatever reason, Sonic Mania includes these requisite precise platforming bits, and despite my own sense that they are somewhat more forgiving than in its 16-bit ancestors — maybe rings you drop stay on screen longer than they used to — they're still here, and they're still not especially fun. It's ironic that sections requiring twitch reflexes are often the worst parts of Sonic games, but here we are, 26 years later, and it's still true.

First impressions: God drat there are a lot of signposts. I took about 20 minutes to complete the first level because I kept warping into the blue sphere stages every 30 seconds or so.

I can't think of any cheat codes in any original sonic games that gave you lives or continues, all they ever gave you was level select or all the chaos emeralds.

and wtf "better than the original game"

original game ?

??


Okay different opinions sure if you don't like the game I feel you but like half the stuff in that excerpt is verifiably incorrect information.

smdh polygon sucks.
