Sonic Generations Special Edition gets Xbox 360 exclusive Avatar treats

OXM writes: A Sonic Generations: Special Edition for Xbox 360 has popped on GAME, featuring a "super-transformation&quo t; Avatar costume exclusive to the platform.

There's a dashboard theme too, and an "iconic mini-game" from Sonic 2's Casino Night Zone. We presume they're talking about the bits where you bounce around the inside of a giant pinball table.

I thought this game would of been packaged with a a special Sonic 25th Anniversary Collectors edition

SonicTheHedgehog4695d ago

25th? This is only his 20th Anniversary. I loved the demo and I can not wait to get my copy in my hands this year. :) Sonic for ever.

MrSpace4695d ago

So it is...

I keep getting confused with the Mario All Stars 25th Anniversary

That's weird, Gamestop is giving you all those things free when you preorder the game (Theme, Avatar Outfit, Casino Themed Pinball). The only thing exclusive to Xbox is the Avatar outfit, PS3 preorders still get a theme and the Casino Night Zone Pinball level.

I didn't like the demo. They managed to butcher the controls that were spot on in the original.

The 7 Best Sonic the Hedgehog Games: Racing through Time

Sonic the Hedgehog has a long and turbulent history in videogames, but which are the best games featuring the blue bur?

Rebel_Scum105d ago

Generations over Mania? Please… Generations doesnt have any new ideas in the levels/bosses.

Also a top 7 of Sonic games shouldn’t have any 3D crap and contain at least one of the 8-bit titles.

Sonic CD getting snubbed is weird. Number 1 is definitely interchangable between Sonic 2 and Sonic 3 & Knuckles.

Snookies12105d ago

Nothing wrong with putting Generations over Mania. Generations had a lot more to it. Mania was just a bit too short, despite how amazing it was. They're both top-tier Sonic games though.

Profchaos105d ago (Edited 105d ago )

I don't think mania was to short given 1,2,3, knuckles were between 1 and 3 hours long.

Mania was 5 hours roughly

However i say the originals feel more repayable because they are so short

Profchaos105d ago (Edited 105d ago )

The 8 bit games were pretty bad overall do you mean the 16 bit ones

Rebel_Scum105d ago

Nope. Sonic 1 & 2 on the master system were great. Dont confuse these with the game gear versions either.

Profchaos105d ago

Top 7 for me
7 cd
6 mania
5 Frontiers
4 sonic 3
3 sonic 1
2 sonic and knuckles
1 sonic 2

Sometimes I feel like the Sonic Advanced games just didn’t exist with how much it’s always forgotten 😭

Chocoburger104d ago

Even as a Sonic fan, I didn't really care for those games, and getting the Chaos Emeralds were freakin' horrible. Even with an emulator and save states, I didn't have the desire to try. I also didn't like most of the levels or bosses either. Unfortunately, DiMPs aren't good at making Sonic games.

Why the Separation Between Modern and Classic Sonic is a Double-Edged Sword

The divide between both iterations of Sonic is now reaching spin-off territory, and the way Sega is handling it is both a blessing and a curse.

Sonic Handheld Games that Need Remasters after Origins

BLG writes: "With the success of the films and the promise of Frontiers, it’s possible that we’re ushering in a new golden age of Sonic the Hedgehog. While Sega is looking forward, the company is also looking back. It’s giving us Sonic Origins, a retooled collection of Genesis classics. However, this package fails to provoke a burning question: what’s the best Sonic handheld game?"
