Quick Look: Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed

I wonder if they'll ever make a good Sonic game again.

edit: Rekt.

quest completed? Aww, nope.

Second!

Erm, awesome. Thanks?

Transform and roll out!

Have the game. It's awesome. That After Burner theme is killer.

First!

This game is pretty great, awesome kart-racer.

A sonic kart racing game QL is as long as the PS2 QL................

I really liked the first game. I plan on getting this one too but not sure when.

@Nekrokreuz: Sonic 4 Episode 2 actually wasn't too bad (I thought Episode 1 was a flaming pile of garbage). And Sonic Generations is a pretty good nostalgia trip. The game gets worse around the same times the games got worse (once you hit the Sonic 2006 level), so I appreciated the attention to detail.

Haha. I might check out episode 2 then. Thanks.

Miles per hour? Holy shit, I'm slow.

Oh man...during the Sega Fighting Game QL I wondered what Jeff meant when he talked about a stupid joke and Tails' name.....now I know. Thanks Ryan.

Miles Per Hour

*takes off glasses* My god....

JET SET RADIOOOOOOO!

There's a deep irony in Ryan getting mad at someone for not getting through menus fast enough.

I.Am.Transformed!

The exact same revelation happened to me in a similar fashion in the Sonic the Fighters QL. My whole life has been a lie.

Nice! a Vincent "Fuckin' Fish" Caravella quick look!

Bomb diggity, son. I really fucking loved the first Sega All-Stars Racing game, because fuck Mario Kart. To me, it felt much more about technique and control than Mario Kart ever has. Maybe I'll get this, too.

Edit: Ryan mucked up that shortcut so hard. Painful. ):

Miles per hour.... God damn it.

Mario Kart's got nothing on THESE boats and planes

This game looks surprisingly fun! Also, Audio sync issues >_<

I can't tell if Ryan is kidding about the Miles Per Hour thing......

Seems like a decent little kart racer.

Also, both Quick Looks today have audio sync issues.

My favorite thing about Sonic is when people realize that "Miles Prower" is a pun.

This game looks fantastic, also I can't believe Miles name is a pun for Miles Per Hour. Blew my mind

@Nekrokreuz: This is a really good game, as was the original. If you mean proper Sonic game though.. probably not. Kids will buy them regardless.

There's a lot of delay between the audio and video in the recent QLs.

Whats Up Player!

weird audio delay on the 720p videos (idn if its on the other ones) on the videos posted today.

Gotta go fast!

I've been trying to spread the gospel on this game man. It's really good. Sumo Digital is the truth.

Note to those about to watch -- gameplay starts 16:00 in

Is it bad that this seems like the most inspired Sonic game to come out in recent memory?

I got "Miles Per Hour" the first time I heard it. Which was a few months ago.

Ryan clearly wanted to hear Samba De Janeiro in that Samba De Amigo track. Can't really blame him because that song is awesome!

So why does Sonic need a kart to go fast again...?

Who's Dr. Robotnik? Is he some relative of Dr. Eggman?

It's a good, fun game. And the AGES character is great if you can unlock it.

HOLY HELL, I never realized the Tails MPH thing, my mind has been blown.

How do you guys KEEP FUCKING UP with audio synch when video is by far the most important aspect of the site?

Basement youtubers can get this thing right every time, I expect better of GB.

Is the sound a second ahead for anyone else?

EDIT: Looks like it is!

The audio delay makes this strange to watch. Vinny shouts something out just before it happens - really disconcerting.

This game looks pretty good. BEST SONIC GAME EVER!!

The audio's out of synch, yet again.

Is it just my machine or my browser or my what-have-you, or have the past few GB videos had audio/video sync problems?

Same reason people don' t just bring their cars to the 100 meter dash.

This is a hell of a game. I just posted my review over here.
