Videogamer: Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing Transformed Preview

Games development can be a cruel business sometimes. There you are, hard at work on your sequel, shining up the new mechanic that will help you to stand out from the pack. Then suddenly your closest rival reveals that they've got exactly the same feature. And as they're going to be releasing first, you're going to look like a right Mirror Moggy.

Is this Sonic's way of holding back?

VTKC4395d ago

instead of looking at this game as a copy of Nintendos idea. Think of it as an equivalant game to MarioKart for those who dont have a Nintendo console. Thats how I thought of the first game as it was kinda like Mariokart with the wacky characters and weapon system.

MANGLORD4395d ago

Really liked the first. Will definitely check this out.
Gilius Thunderhead! ) Would like to see Chakan and TJ&E in some cars and Shinobi too.

Sega version of Diddy Kong Racing. I have no problem with! I loved that game. Glad to see the game style come back in a way.

I loved the first one. Hopefully they put Corn in it too(not a fan of beat) Fav driver is Ryo Hazuki. would be funny if they put Goro Mihashi in "YO BROOOoooooo!"

Speed freaks on the PSX was a really good one.

Chocobo GP had potencial to be a worthy competitor, but Square Enix just couldn't help itself from ruining it with bad monetization. Still fun to run a couple of races from time to time, though.

Kneetos188d ago

Still sad we haven't gotten a new mod nation racers from Sony in a hot minute

I played that more then MKWii for a while.

All they need to do is go back to what it was like but add better story elements to it

As I've said basing it off the Sonic Comics would work.

From a fast brown Hedgehog to a super fast, red trainer wearing blue hedgehog. It shows you how Robotnik became evil and why Sonic decides to stop him.

Plus Amy actually was better developed back then, she got involved more and could defend herself.

I really don't know what Sega can do to bring back Sonic. They tried brining him back to his roots but that failed just as the article suggested, poor level design and bad gameplay. The rest were all gimmicks poorly executed, so my only suggestion would be to FIRE Team Sonic.

If Mario can venture off into new gameplay areas and still be successful with spin offs after spin offs then that shows a true testament to the developing power of the Mario team at Nintendo. There is no reason why Sonic shouldn't have the same success in all his games and spin off.

Sonic & All Stars Racing Transformed needs a sequel. I mean did it really do that bad that Sega dropped all support for consoles? I mean the PC version got a bunch of updates including extra characters why couldn't they port that over to the consoles? It's a shame because my friends and I play that game religiously, it's the closest to Mario Kart we have.

2008-2011 they had a working formula. Sonic Unleashed,Sonic Colors, and Sonic Generation was not sonic's roots at the core (Sonic Adventure is more true to the 2D Genesis games) but fans loved it and it was fun. Then they screwed around with it in Lost World and Shat on it with sonic Boom

TXIDarkAvenger3367d ago

Make it a requirement for workers to play Sonic 1-3 and Sonic Adventure 1 & 2.

StormLegend3367d ago

Keep releasing games like Generations, Allstars transformed and Unleashed, and they should be good!

LightDiego3367d ago

Now Sonic will be a mobile game only? That's awful.
