![]() With my PS4 controller, however, Sonic was floaty and awkward to control. I remember the original actually feeling better to play on the Wii compared to the PS4, as the motion controls gave the gameplay a little more innovation. I was either watching Sonic run without participating, or trying to get him to jump over spikes.Īnd I could forgive the platforming if it was easier to control. The feeling of speed is missing, even when you boost it feels like you don’t ever get to go that fast, and there are some levels that even have Sonic automatically running forward in the intro for a ridiculous amount of time. There are a few sections that are undoubtedly fun, when you can rush forward and appreciate the interesting backgrounds, but a lot of the time you’re constantly stopping and navigating awkward platforms. As someone who remembers playing the original version of Sonic Colors over a decade ago, I can say that it feels about the same.įor a character renowned for his speed, it really feels like Sonic spend a lot of time platforming and waiting around in this game. Since the story is rarely why you pick up a Sonic game, you want the gameplay to really shine. Not very complicated, better for younger kids.However, Sonic Colors Ultimate did make me laugh out loud on occasion, with Eggman’s absurd park announcements a particular highlight. The script is tailored for a younger audience than myself, with tedious jokes about butts and farts running rampant. Tails is also here, which is a nostalgic throwback, but there isn’t much else happening in terms of characters or story, so the game was very dependent on gameplay to keep your attention. It becomes clear that Eggman is up to no good, as usual, this time concerning some little aliens, or Wisps, who he’s capturing and using in a nefarious plot to control the world. You play as Sonic, who’s visiting Dr Eggman’s Incredible Interstellar Amusement Park. Starting up Sonic Colors Ultimate, you don’t actually get much in terms of the story until you’ve completed a level or two. It doesn’t follow on from any other game.While Sonic fans and young children may be able to find joy here, I’m sad to say I don’t think this is a worthwhile game for anyone else – it’s not devoid of fun, but it’s hardly a decent Sonic game. This remake doesn’t really shake things up in terms of story or gameplay, but is pretty faithful to the original with a few added bits of content to keep things interesting. Because constant negativity in gaming is not only tiresome, but some companies stay afloat because, and I’m going to say it, there is no such thing as bad publicity.Sonic Colors Ultimate is a remake of the 2010 Wii game that drops you back in Eggman’s theme park of horrors with the task of saving the aliens he’s been capturing. Those that poured their effort into making a fun game at the very start. Games like Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin, Atelier Ryza 1 and 2, Disgaea 5, Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order and Hollow Knight. Gaming in general is starting to resort to these controversies like how a game is in bad shape at the start(GTA Trilogy, Zelda Ocarina of Time Switch, Star Wars: Battlefront 2017, Halo Master Chief Collection, No Man’s Sky to name a few).Īs gamers, we need to start paying more attention to the good games that deserve the limelight. And it’s not just SEGA that’s the problem. I feel like that by talking about these kinds of bad controversies, we keep these kinds of games fresh in the public. That in our constant criticism, time and time again, it’s become too numb for all of us. ![]() You know, as someone who has been following the bad Sonic games since 2004-5, I’m beginning to realize that all this negativity towards the franchise is too good. We’ve got a summary of what we found beneath the video: ![]() UPDATE: We streamed the patched version on our Youtube, which you can check out below. We’d also like to note that according to the Sonic Social media manager, another patch is on the way, so anything that isn’t fixed now will hopefully be addressed soon! So you don’t have to worry about this eating into your bandwidth or hard drive space!ĭoes this fix the wisp music glitch? Or the disappearing pipe textures? Stay tuned to Sonic Stadium for future updates (and potentially our Twitch channel, where we will try to give the PS5 version a go shortly). The patch isn’t very large: just 1.2 GB on PS5.
