Quick Look: Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed

This game looks dope as hell, will probably be the first game I buy for my Wii-U at Christmas.

I didn't even know what Tails' full name is.
 
Because fuck Sonic.

The music in this game is not good at all.

How did Ryan not know that Tails's name was a pun, knew that since I was young and I was born in 91

Yeah, he's probably just joking.

Oh shit, I also never realized that Miles Prower = miles per hour. Whoops.

I've heard it said that the last two sonic racers were are better than the last two mario karts.

They should've mentioned, this game is only 40$ at retail.

That is a hell of a deal, this game is pretty great.

That Miles Prower bit just blew my damn mind.

I CANNOT wait for the new series/movie... just sayin

Pretty good game. It reminded me of Diddy Kong Racing with all the different vehicles. This could be considered an updated Diddy Kong Racing! =-P

From what I played of the full game, It's really solid guys!

This looks surprisingly crazy and fun. I wonder how it holds up to long play.

Thank you, Giantbomb, for keeping Patrick away from this Quick Look! Mr. "The internet hates Sega and all things Sonic, so I'm just gonna talk about how awful everything they do is nowadays without having any personal opinion whatsoever to contribute. Nor will I pay attention to any of the GOOD games they're clearly still putting out. I have more Sonic-trashing to do!".

Ryan and Vinny were perfect here, is what I'm saying ;) It's good to see some people recognize when Sega still puts out good, colorful, fun, well-made games. The Sega All Stars Racers deserve some respect!

@Nekrokreuz: In case no one's said this already, Sonic Colors is really good. Using the Wii remote sideways can be inconvenient at times, but only rarely.

@vinsanityv22: I'm not sure it's much better to be that guy who brings up his opinion on something in completely unrelated discussions because they're desperate for people to validate it.

The music in this game is not good at all. 

wow, they're so bad at this game.

i didnt think you could forget the basic principles of kart games

I heard the Wii U version has issues. May want to look into that before buying.

No Ryo Hazuki? Uuuugh no buy!

@golguin: hehe

Ah, aight, will check out what's up with that, thanks.

Wow, it baffles me how so many people didn't get the "Miles Prower" thing. I'm pretty sure I figured that out the first time I saw his name when I was a little kid. I don't even fucking like sonic games either.  I probably shouldn't talk though, because I had no idea what "Phoenix Down" really meant until they talked about it on the bombcast.

Well that is the first time I found out what Tails name actually means, after so many years it is a startling revelation. Game looks really solid and challenging so I'll keep an eye out.

this is the best Sonic game in years. lots of fun.

  I see SOMEONE hasn't got the funk in their soul.

    Soundtrack is awesome. Also see the Skies Of Arcadia and Golden Axe levels. Fun fact: The composer for this game is the same guy who did the legendary Sonic R soundtrack. There's two Sonic R remixes even snuck in the Seaside Hill and Sky Sanctuary levels.

To everyone wanting a great Sonic game, check out Sonic Fan Remix...Best thing since next gen and only made by 3 guys

Man, the presentation of this game is top-notch.

@nekrokreuz: See Sonic Colors and Sonic Generations.

Sonic Colors was a great Sonic game full of unique environments, charming writing (sometimes cringe-worthy, but miles better than 06 or Unleashed.) Even if it is a direct answer to Mario Galaxy in a lot of respects, it's a great mo'fuckin time.

Fuck, I miss Davis. Hard to get over that joyful motherfucker.

A review said this is the best kart racing game.
