      1. It was pretty bad. I’ve played almost every 3D Sonic game there is (Sonic 06, Unleashed and & The Black Knight are I think the only 3D ones I haven’t played) and Forces was quite easily the worst of them. Extremely short, janky controls, jankier controls for Classic Sonic, janky gravity for Classic Sonic and basically the same 5 or 6 environments used for 30 “levels.” It was pretty and I loved the music, but outside of that there’s nothing convincing me to start it up again after completing the story.

        Just my opinion of course.

      2. The fact that you say is worse than Sonic 06 tells me you are full of bullshit, is bad, but not that bad, you just want to join the bandwagon of people saying the game is 10 times worse than what people think.

        1. It came dangerously close to being like 2006 which the last one to do that was Boom. The “dark/war” story is utter horseshit marketing ploy like it’s OC Creator and Shadow/Chaos being in it which you don’t even fight ONCE. The villains are a joke, the level designs repetitive and short, no other modes or incentives for replayability, all playable characters act exactly the same as each other, no Super Sonic segment which was truly needed in this game to fight Infinite and speaking of which, I have never seen such a pathetic character writing in my fucking life like Infinite’s. I wanna like the guy but everything about him is laughably bad and poorly written. I already described my criticism and obvious game/story flaws up above if you wanna read it.

      3. Not that bad eh? Look at Infinite’s backstory; there is none and his boss fights and resolve is a joke. Shows up, acts emo/evil for no reason or explanation, gets an ass whooping and vanishes…sound familiar? Deadly Six plus his Mephiles 2.0 because he has no animated mouth and his potential was squashed without fleshing out but Mephiles was at least a better villain. Infinite’s excuse is that he looks charming without his mask according to many fansgirls shipping his furry Kylo Ren ass with Sega’s unnamed red wolf dude which people call him Gadget for the nerdy persona. lol Back to the game..or should I say lack of because it’s only less than 3 hours with very few locations which are ripped out of Generations with another, uninspired makeover. Shadow DLC is just a marketing ploy, like Chaos who you also DONT FIGHT ONCE IN THE GAME, to get idiots to buy this and realize what a nasty “lacking” surprise it really is. As I thought, DeviantART OC mode is just a gimmick who somehow plays exactly like Sonic. As for Classic Sonic who shouldn’t be in the game anyway, comes in and boy his gameplay and music is even worse than Sonic 4 Episode 1 and people gave that game a hard time. Now let’s discuss how this game retcons the Canon once more: Sonic meeting Chaos and asks “How is he fighting” the way he does when he clearly remembers Chaos from Adventure 1. Next, Tails acting like a huge pussy when CHAOS 0 APPEARS BUT FORGOT THAT HE FOUGHT AND BEATEN CHAOS 4 IN ADVENTURE 1! Followed by Classic Sonic being from another dimension…HORSESHIT; He KNOWS this Classic Sonic and the last time they met was Generations which that Classic Sonic exists in the same Canon timeline as Modern Sonic. What the fuck?! Game never explained why Silver was there, he’s just randomly there and I know people would assume he’s there because of Eggman’s take over but at least explain it in the game but wait, that’s what the external comics are for…WHY RESORT TO EXTERNAL MEDIA TO EXPLAIN THE MAIN PLOT?! That’s never a good idea to do because the general audience will have no clue those media exists which also still doesn’t explain shit. Take Infinite for example: He shows up to attack Eggman, sees some vision for a moment, gets knocked over and then…joins him with some emo dialog that also doesn’t foreshadow why he sees the world and people that way. As for the Jackal Squad, WTF weren’t they in the game and why weren’t they mentioned again after Episode Shadow and one other thing, the time frame of this plot takes place over 7 months. WTF has any of the characters done in the past 7 months? JACK SHIT, everybody is practically useless because the only people that gets shit done ON SCREEN is Sonic, Sonic, Black Sonic somewhat and OC the Hedgehog since he can somehow Boost…when Modern Sonic is the only being in the game that can do it…my head fucking hurts having to explain so many goddamn flaws in this game. Oh and for someone who was supposedly “tortured” for half a year, Sonic looks fine, acting cheery and shit with his dumbass jokes and writing and his voice…still sounds over top compare to Boom Sonic which I thought were signs of Roger Craig Smith improving but you know what? He should go back to voicing Chris Redfield…I don’t like his voice work as Sonic and people gave Jason a hard time.

      4. Not that bad eh? Look at Infinite’s backstory; there is none and his boss fights/resolve is a fucking joke for a “god-like” villain. He shows up, acts emo/evil for no reason or explanation, gets an ass whooping and vanishes…sound familiar? Deadly Six plus he’s Mephiles 2.0 because he has no animated mouth and his potential was squashed without fleshing out but Mephiles was at least a better villain.

Shadow DLC is just a marketing ploy, like showing off Chaos who you also DON’T FIGHT ONCE IN THE ENTIRE GAME, to get idiots to buy this. As I thought, DeviantART OC mode is just a gimmick who somehow plays exactly like Sonic while lacking few basic features like weight, height, A FUCKING NAME. Classic Sonic who shouldn’t even be in the game anyway, comes in and boy his gameplay/music is even worse than Sonic 4 Episode 1. Now let’s discuss how this game retcons the Canon once more: Sonic meeting Chaos and asks “How is he fighting” the way he does when he clearly remembers Chaos from Adventure 1. Next, Tails acting like a huge pussy when Chaos 0 appears but forgot that HE FOUGHT AND BEATEN CHAOS 4 IN ADVENTURE 1!

        1. Just to press this further, I wanna.mention about the Phantom Ruby which Sega also fucked up. Didn’t Mania established that there’s only one and can manipulate reality around them? Why is there so many “manufactured” Phantom Rubies in Forces and how can only select individuals, AN OC MIND YOU, can use it? Why not Sonic if all it takes is the oh so super cheesy “Courage and Heroism” excuse but if that’s how it works, how can Infinite use it and he has no heroic intentions? The game also never explains where Mania’s Phantom Ruby at; in Eggman’s hands, stored away, destroyed, NOTHING?! Also, how can Classic Sonic return to his TIMELINE, NOT DIMENSION SEGA, without a portal to enter back like Generations? Like they also didn’t explain what happen to Infinite after you beat him the final time and where’s the Chaos Emeralds when you absolutely needed them after Eggman took over with a God-Like Ally like Infinite? Oh sorry, “God-Like”? I meant to say Pushover because Sega didn’t utilize his full potential to be a powerful boss to fight. It would’ve been smart to save Infinite for the final boss fight as Super Sonic but nope. Sega didn’t think anything through and this is exactly why many say Sega shouldn’t even make another Sonic game anymore.

  1. Interesting. Unfortunately the IPs from the Sega I love have been buried for a long time. I’d like to see Dreamcast and Saturn on whatever Nintendo is doing with the virtual console. They might have less interest than say Genesis games, but they also don’t emulate well, so there’s a market there. A new Phantasy Star maybe. Virtua Fighter 6. Super Monkey Ball. Panzer Dragoon, Dragon Force, Ecco, Jet Set Radio, a Mad World 2. But there’s probably no way any of that’s happening.

    Beyond Nintendo options, I dunno. Total Warhammer 2 just came out so we won’t have the third for a while, Dawn of War 3 was garbage and I’m sure anything they do with Company of Heroes will be terrible now, the Alien titles have all been bad. Shenmue III is coming out this year. There’s a new Yakuza game that hasn’t been released in English yet. I just don’t see much chance of me getting something to be excited about.
