Rhiko nailed, good work.

Don't waste your time. Nothing popped up yet.

Eh, decent review. Glad to see some more gameplay.

[Teeks]

The guy who reviewed it was incredibly boring. But at least it got a good score. I am content.

Of course he talked about "Sonic's dumb friends missions" and that Modern looks like a Racing game.

But overall positive review.

Edit: Also "Team Sonic". Wut?

*Notices talk about dumb friends, but doesn't mark the game down for it*

8.5 is a good score, but the actual review kind of irked me.

[Teeks]

When will Sonic Team actually make them happy about controls? I thought that SG controls pretty well.

[KrazyBean]

Happy to see it got a good score.

But that review? Fuck it. I love how when they try to demonstrate the "clunky controls", it's so fucking obvious that they're dicking around. Goddamn.

This game is officially the "8" game.

Gamespot's gonna give it an 8.0. Calling it now. :v

Sound, 7? Guess that they can't appreciate the remixes like us Sonic fans.

If it get's constant 8's then how would this game score on Metacritic?

Their ratings of graphics and sound are especially annoying. The game looks and sounds fantastic.

[DudeManGuy]

OMG, the footage in this review of the perfect chaos boss battle looks AMAZING! Either that or the Shadow boss are going to be my favorite, I can already tell.

If they don't know most of the original musics, they really can't enjoy them as much as we do.

"dumb friends"

EVERYONE GET DOWN!!

"Looks great in motion, but not as nice when everything stops. Framerate issues pop up somewhat regularly."

Hmm, shame to hear there's still some framerate issues, but then again, they DID base their review off the PS3 review for both 360/PS3 (or at least, this is evident going off that all the videos they've posted are of the PS3 version. Hopefully downloading to HDD might reduce this issue for users of both consoles...?)

"An awesome interactive hub world, and a story that, while inconsequential, is enjoyable. The Sonics have a great dynamic."

Wow, IGN liked the story, actually. You know, I really haven't seen the video review, but I did read the written review, which seemed very positive and fair. You guys should give it a quick read, it's pretty short.

Few bosses?? The game has 7 UNIQUE BOSSES! Sonic Colours had only 4 BOSSES in the ENTIRE GAME and they didn't complain then!

More and more it sounds like all the bosses are going to be over pretty damn quick. I hope hard mode makes up for that. Still, another 8+ for Sonic. =]
