Enough said.

To be honest I think this is the first console sonic game since SA2 to get a 9.5 score

I think we should see another 9 from Worth Playing. Although I'm surprised pal gave this such a high score considering they rag on Sonic games A LOT.

Best thing is, this goes to Metacritic!

Oh Hell YEAH!! That's what i wanted to hear! Thank you Neon! I <3 you dude!

[Indigo Rush]

That was a well written review! It's nice to see critics warming up to Sonic after all these years!

And not a single complaint about Classic Sonic's gimped rolling or Modern Sonic's "boost-to-win," d'ohohohohohohohoho!!!

8/10

PALGN's description for 9.5 games:

The best of the best, a must buy title for almost all gamers. State of the art technically, and an artistic marvel. Creative gameplay mechanics, and level design beyond reproach. A game guaranteed to be shortlisted for 'game of the year'.

[Dark Qiviut]

I just read the review. It's very well-written, informative, and engaging. The reviewer is definitely not afraid to praise it to high levels while also acknowledging some kinks from the PS3 version he played with.

He even had the guts to compare it to Mario Galaxy and call the gameplay an improvement over the Classics! >)

Woot 8 from Euro...was a a bit worried about them.

The people who scored Colors low are scoring this higher. Good shit.

There is also more euro sites than that 1...hopefully we see good stuff fro the others.

Note that this is Eurogamer Portugal.

[EXshad]

It's nice to see all the publications that actually matter give this game an 8 or higher

Seriously, I wanna see it at least get a metacritic score that's in the mid-eighties, if only because I feel that's the score it deserves. Hopefully all these 8s and 9s pouring in will help it get there.

Also, Eurogamer gave Sonic Generations the same score as they gave Uncharted 3. Oh the fanrage, it's a-brewin'.

[Jeffhog]

...holy crap, he opened with "Dreams of An Absolution" lyrics. xD AND a 9.5? Hell yeah!

Take THAT, GameInformer! THAT is gaming journalism!

[Milo]

I just checked PALGN's Uncharted 3 scroe, and it was 9.

Meaning that they gave Sonic Generations a HIGHER score than possible GOTY UNCHARTED 3.

Hahahah he must have REALLY liked Generations then XD

[Indigo Rush]

So, Generations is a 70%-90% quality title, then!

Guys, 5 years ago.

Don't forget where we were.

To forget where we were would be to forget how massive of an improvement the series has made in half of a decade.

Not a bad review if you asked me. Still find this whole 'cheap death' bullshit fiasco funny, but otherwise decent review. The comments section is a nice sight too.

Oops

Anyway I'm glad with gametrailers review!I was scared they will give another low score since Sonic Colors

[McGroose]

As this comment is being written, Metacritic score is still 77.

[KrazyBean]

LOL GameTrailers, LOL, you say cheap deaths whilst you clearly made Sonic commit suicide! Other than that, great review!

DAT 9.5 SCORE MAKES ME FEEL GOOD!!! I've totally forgotten about the trash that was GI's review

As this comment is being written, Metacritic score is still 77.

[Dark Qiviut]

It's not updated yet.

When it does, it'll go up to 79.

[DC111]

Wow. That 9.5 review is really worth reading the whole thing. Got chills.

SEGA fan site SEGAShiro has posted a video review of the game:

What will really impress me is if the show "X-play" gives it a good review. They practically despise Sonic, making jokes about it as a franchise from time to time, such as when they left out "Sonic and Eggman" from their top five gaming hero/nemises combos. They also game Colors a 2 out of 5.

So if they give it a good review then I will be insanely surprised.
