Thats exactly what I wanted to hear I was a massive fan of the 2D games on master system and megadrive.

WAIT. The game is a combination of both styles, Modern and Classic, and you have to play both to progress and unlock more stages.

The Modern Style is similar to the style found in Sonic Colors, which was an improved version of Sonic unleashed (Daytime Stages).

BUT, if you hate the modern ones flat out, then you're stuck with half a game you hate here.

Personally, I found the modern gameplay to actually be decent here, just like it was in Sonic Colors, but like I said, if you didn't enjoy that, then, maybe stay away from the game.

I enjoyed this game, but found it got really hard as it went on.

Worth a punt though.

It's a great game, not very long though. It's just fun to play the classic stages, and the modernised versions are exceuted well enough.

Its a fun game short though but very fun not too hard but not too easy either

It's a good game. Gameplay is pretty decent, however it's incredibly short and empty. Everything else was "meh" I thought the final boss was such a let down and the story was so disappointing not to mention the lack of interaction with other characters and the level selection could have been better. Super Sonic was also executed poorly and a lot of the missions were repetitive. I only had fun with the game for only a few hours. Ever since, I haven't really felt like going back to play it again. There was no sense of prgression or accomplishment which was a shame for an anniversary game.

There's a lot of wasted potential but I would still recommend it! It's a good nostalgia trip!

We loved it. I'm not a massive fan of the newer games but the 'new' levels in Generations are just about manageable, albeit I wasn't sure what I was doing at times. The 2D levels though are just brilliant. Classic Sonic in glorious HD!

that's what I thought classic sonic in HD is always a winner.
