I think some of the criticism is unfair. There are a lot of good quality games there that have never been in collections like this before, the Shining series alone is worth the price in my opinion.Also, to the guy that is angry that Phantasy Star needs unlocking through a two player achievement; have you considered, you know, just plugging in a second control pad and waggling it from time ...

At the time of release I remember Sonic Adventure getting a lot of good reviews and praise. I also remember Sonic and the Secret Rings getting good reviews and praise from reviewers that rightfully blasted away Sonic 06. I didn't like SatSR either to be honest.I also don't understand the Sonic CD comment. Surely Sonic 3 plugged into Sonic and Knuckles was the best Sonic experience to be had? :D

I really don't understand the mentality of "Sonic Team does not care" about how Sonic Unleashed was created.A whole new team was brought in for Unleashed, that consisted of a lot of people from college and old school Sonic fans, excited to be working on such a huge project. As such, Sonic Unleashed was the first game this 'new' Sonic Team made, and for a first go, it was certainly ...

When I first heard about Let's Tap, it sounded like a really bad idea.However, after watching the extended gameplay trailer, I'm completely won over. It actually looks rather fun and I'm obsessed with the music:http://www.gametrailers.com/player/43364.htmlI've watched this trailer about twenty times now :O

Wow, what a creepy individual who relates to Sonic's attitude and personality. As AuthenticM stated, the more adult games are the ones that it's fine to be emotional with. I find Half-Life the best example, as always. Sonic games are convoluted, awkward, and you can't really relate with a wild animal, ...

Having now played through Unleashed, I really do think that the daytime stages are awesome and a step in the right direction, they just need more platforming elements thrown in there to slow him down, and his controls need a bit of work too to slow him down some more and make him less slippery.Some levels have some nice sections where you jump from platform to platform etc, perhaps if ...

I disagree with your post on two counts.Firstly, you can't blame this one single person for 'fucking up' the Sonic franchise. A whole team of people work on a series like Sonic, from characterisation to the actual games themselves, and yeah, a lot of blood, sweat and tears go into producing a game. If the gameplay of Sonic had been perfect from day one, then no one would have really ...

Everyone is on to bigger and better games this generation, please slow down Sonic, you're not impressing anyone. " Yet his games still sell. Surely some people still like Sonic games (Not ...

I think it would have helped a little, as the initial resistance most people have is "OMG there is a WEREHOG in SONIC!" :OI don't think Sonic Unleashed is broken at all. I would certainly go as far as to say it is the best 3D Sonic game, better than the two Sonic Adventure titles, and they sure were not broken. The gameplay works in Unleashed, you don't run through ...

My Wii hasn't been touched in quite a while either, but I'm looking forward to MadWorld. That just looks like it's gonna be freaking awesome!

Not gonna read through 40-odd pages (I'm a student, I'm lazy), but I think the site needs more news, reviews and game industry coverage in general, just more content! The actual wiki-tools are really good, I just think the site needs more gaming news and stuffs ^^Maybe we could have some European and Japanese-centred news as well? Is there anyone on the Giant Bomb staff who is based in Europe ...

I'm playing through Sonic Unleashed.Just did the Shamar daytime stage. The daytime stages are awesome!

Good Dreamcast games? ALL OF THEM! :ODid no one mention Seaman? :(

Sonic Unleashed is the best 3D Sonic game to date and recommended if you're a Sonic fan. I would leave it if you don't care that much about the Sonic series though.I would personally go for Fable 2 though, it's short, but you can get a lot of fun out of it, and feels like a great game to play over Christmas :DAll the good games are already out in ...

The only one on that list I have played and completed was Lost Odyssey, and I loved every moment of that game.I like a good mixture of JRPG and western RPG's. Personally, I find a lot more depth, story and characterisation within JRPG's, and with some exceptions, JRPG's last longer. The major exception there I can think of is The Elder Scrolls series which sucked me in for hours, but ...

Oblivion, but that was fairly easy, just needed to put the time in.I don't think I have many 1000's though. A few 990's or similar with annoying requirements :(

The 'filler' stuff is pretty much there to lengthen the gameplay experience within the 3D incarnations, and to also keep up with the demand for longer, more complex games. I honestly think that people would have enjoyed the Werehog stages more if it was Knuckles, and instead of super stretchy arms, Knuckles would glide across platforms or something similar.Honestly speaking, who here would love a Sonic game that was just ...
