SEGAOnline have gotten hold of some new screenshots and achievements from the Xbox Live Arcade version of Sonic Adventure we informed you about Jan 11th. Sonic’s model in the screenshots confirm this is definitely the Sonic Adventure DX: Director’s Cut version we’re looking at here, more than likely a port of the PC version. Judging by the borders it appears this port hasn’t received a wide-screen upgrade.

Basically stuff that hardly anyone who played the games even noticed aside from “hardcore” people with rage at even the smallest detail. XD

Actually, it’s stuff that MOST people seemed to notice. Regardless of whether or no the graphics looked better, DX’s visual “enhancements” were a poor attempt to make the game look better, the frame rate stuttered like crazy, Sonic falls through the floor A LOT more (coincidentally, one of the screens released for the XBLA port showed Sonic in an area of Windy Valley that I JUST ran through a solid wall and plunged to my death at. I can even highlight on the picture where I was unfairly killed), the Chao Gardens are needlessly scaled down, the Chao mini game totally sucks, the Chao stats are a wonky mess, and without the ability to take Chao from DX to SA2B, you can’t even see the Chao Doctor and see their ranks for each attribute.

DX did a lot of stuff right, but it did more stuff wrong. Of course, I wouldn’t mind that this was a port of DX if it were at least in HD. It would’ve been a truly effortless conversion, and Sonic Team was too lazy to even bother with that. If the “Extend Package” is just some of the extra features from DX (Metal Sonic, Game Gear games), then there’s even LESS reason to be interested in this XBLA release, which is shaping up to be the greatest offense Sonic Team has ever fired our way.
