Official Sonic Colours Thread

Some gameplay footage from Planet Wisp at Comic-Con: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/nycc-10-sonic-colors/706046

Double-post-a-go-go.

Anyway, the new issue of ONM had reviews of both versions and- HEY! Come back, it's not what you think. The scores are as follows:

Wii: 86%
DS: 85%

Both respectible scores in my opinion.

ONM always had a brain, Wally. Just because they're different doesn't mean they're dumb.

ok wally....

The new issue supposed to come out tomorrow i think and I havent got it yet! its not fair :(

That's why I subscribe. As well as watch Nintendo TV every Friday. I just can't get enough of those guys.

I subscribe too. Our postal service is messed up.

I am loving these new voices.

I Tails' voice!!!!

I think I can slightly detect a bit of his Chris Redfield voice from RE5 but I could just be hearing things.

I don't know if this applies to all regions, but I checked the Nintendo Channel this morning to see new DS demos. Sonic Colors for the DS has a demo up for download.

I played it twice this morning and I gotta say it's pretty cool. Plays like Sonic Rush with some new features. I got some sort of power up by pressing the X button after getting this item. Also I noticed homing attack is included and it works just like Sonic 4. If you see the demo up on Nintendo Channel and have a DS, definitely download it for a small taste of what the DS version is like.

As for the new voices, I saw the video a while back, I don't mind them. Then again, I never had a problem with any voice actors. I just wonder, why did Sega change them, it was surprising to hear new voices.

The Nintendo Channel in Europe gets updated every Friday so I'll check for it then.

An 8.5 from IGN. When IGN likes a Sonic game THAT much, you know there's something good.
I can see this being nominated for "Best Wii Game of 2010".

Wow first Sonic 4 and now this. Are we sure this is IGN's review? Don't answer, I'm just joking, but it is a nice surprise. :)

Though I'm probably going to wait until after the Holiday season to I check out the game.

I might get it on Friday after work. Employee discount after all. Or I may just wait until Christmas.

You can have a look at GT's review, but it's actually rather harsh, though fair in a few areas: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/review-sonic-colors/706920
Though if it's any consolation, most of the video comments disagree.

Also, here's the review pod of the DS version: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/review-pod-sonic-colors/707260

Well, the next thing I was planning on buying was Christmas shopping for the family. But I'm working overtime today sooooo, I could afford to spoil myself a little more. Especially with Staff Discount.
