I thought was fairly interesting and worked as almost a mini level

The game is divided into two parts: Classic (young) Sonic levels where you play in the original sidescroller style, and Modern (older) Sonic, which has levels made up of both both sidescrolling and full three dimensional areas

Great visuals, awesome level designs, additional challenge levels, good soundtrack, appearances by all characters from the sonic universe

Plus they are remakes of classic levels, so there is a strong sense of nostalgia that comes with them, if you are a long-time Sonic fan

Sonic Generations starts you off in the classic Green Hill Zone, re-imagined with entirely new level design, semi-remixed versions of the catchy level music, and brilliant graphical details

Some level can take some getting use to but when you do you will love the setup of the levels

Now what makes Modern Sonic so tough to like by many Sonic fans over these years, is that many of his games are chalk-full of level design flaws that hamper his play style.

My 4 year old finally developed hand-eye coordination and hand size enough to appreciate the X-Box 360, found the Sonic Generations demo from 3 years ago and killed the demo levels over and over.

Like the older games, the levels in Sonic Generations DO get harder the further you progress

The levels you play with him are side scroller style just like the old games but with better graphics and controls

My son is about five and he enjoys playing the game, though the levels near the end are a little tricky for him

These levels are fun, and the controls are tight and responsive

What is to be expected of a Sonic game at a reasonable price wish there was more original content and not as many horrible levels.

The levels are well thought out, and just plain fun to play

Sonic Team have out done themselves with the level design which often surpasses the Mega Drive games

Its less gimmicky than some recent games, and takes you back to a time when Sonic games were all about straight-forward fun, with quirky, straight-forward and entertaining level design

To put it bluntly, Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) was one of the most poorly made games I've ever had the displeasure of experiencing, due to an awful camera, poor level design, terrible physics and character movement, and glitches galore

The harder levels are really pretty cool, with big construction cranes, monster semi trucks chasing you down, helicopter and rocket rides

Sonic has many more classic levels that were left out that could have easily been made as dlc at least

The levels are pretty well put together... there aren't too many of the frustrating pit and enemy placements that you get with a lot of Sonic games... there are plenty of areas to run fast, get rings and have an absolute blast doing so

Both classic and modern Sonic feature amazing level design and at times you can see where the two different Acts cross paths

The newer 3D Sonic has more abilities and his levels are more dynamic, but the 2D Sonic is still fun

The more modern levels are a bit crazy, but still enjoyable

This takes classic sonic levels and enhances them into gorgeous vivid color and blistering speed masterpieces

Sonic Unleashed had potential, but everything but the daytime levels was so tedious, it made the game practically unplayable

Despite the areas where Sonic Generations is a bit weak, the clever and beautiful level design fully encompasses what has made the Sonic series so great for so many years

All of Sonic's friends got trapped and you have to rescue them by completing classic levels and their re-imagined 3D counterparts

So when I heard about Sega bringing back side-scrolling Sonic along with some classic levels I with very excited.

this game has 9 re-imagined levelsSH green hill zone, SH2 chemical plant, SH3 (Sonic and knukles)sky temple, SA (sonic adventure) speed highway,SA2 city escape, SHeros angel island, SH2006 crisis city, SUnleashed rooftop run, and Scolors planet whisp.i enjoyed every single level... except whisp...

While the Wisps put a new spin on Sonic's formula, Sonic Colors was undeniably a Sonic game, and a pretty great one because of its well designed levels, art direction, music, and just epic space opera tone

The difference being you can also speed run the classic levels but the Modern Acts do not offer the same flexibility if you want to travel in any direction other than forwards

This game has the best level design in a Sonic game, ever

They've went back through 20 years of Sonic titles, picked the best levels; revamped them a bit; and then let us play through them in 2D and 3D in beautiful high-definition

What this game manages to do really well, is take levels from different points in time in Sonic's game career, and turn them into beautiful HD renditions, that manage to retain what made the original level so special and memorable

The more modern levels are a bit crazy, but still enjoyable

In my opinion, the best levels are the ones where you race to the finish line against another Sonic

The same thing would happen when I got used to Modern, and I then played a Classic level.

The harder levels are really pretty cool, with big construction cranes, monster semi trucks chasing you down, helicopter and rocket rides

I found that level to be a little odd, and it took me a few tries to find out exactly how to beat it.

These levels also work well, while the controls aren't quite as tight, these levels manage to be lots of fun, and add a relief from the platformming that could otherwise become mundane

It also features classic side-scrolling Sonic levels, done equally well

Like the older games, the levels in Sonic Generations DO get harder the further you progress

Clearly, Sega recognized the fact that it would be best to update the classic levels we remember from the Genesis days rather than create new ones.

I love the new levels and very challenging for myself and my children.

This game has none of the feeling of the slower 2nd generation Sonic games, but manages to throw some amazing 3D levels at you

It features modern Sonic levels that play a lot like Sonic Unleased levels, but way better - no realtime events and significantly improved level design

These levels are fairly lengthy, and manage to be very challenging, particularly later in the game

Those who have played Sonic on their Dreamcast will feel right at home with the similar jumping styles and controls of the new Sonic, and the levels with classic Sonic feel very much like a 2-D world

At the start of the game I favored classic Sonic but by the end of it I was always going for modern Sonic and finding his levels to be pretty intense and very enjoyable

Much of my leisure time was invested in that game and the music, bright colours, and adventurous levels, along with entertaining characters made for a game that more than 20 years later, remains among my all-time favorite video games

Just when you get done playing Classic's level and being used to his style of play, I would then play the level as Modern and I would assume I was playing Classic, and die.

but I'm here to tell you that the modern Sonic levels are actually good

Each zone allows you to choose whether you play as classic or modern Sonic with Act 1 being a classic Sonic level and Act 2 being for modern Sonic

and the modern remakes of classic levels are even better

The harder levels he asks me to clear them, and then we both celebrate when we get through it.

When played as the developer intended the Modern stages are a blast and there is nothing like executing a perfect run through Green Hill Act 2 (probably the greatest Modern Sonic level ever created) chaining boosts/homing attacks/air combos to achieve your best time

But I digress, The classic gameplay is extremely fun and addictive complete with brilliant re-imagined levels with marvelous level design
