i played the first level and didn't hate it, which makes it better than almost every Sonic game after 1997.

Then I was greeted with a cutscene with Sonic and friends :(

Then they started talking :roll:

Then I realized I could skip it :D

So it has gotten off on the right foot, but the verdict will have to wait...

oh yeah skipping cutscenes is a must. I'll be really surprised if you don't like this game Dave.

I love the trepidation everyone feels going into this game. Almost everyone comes out loving it but we've all been burnt so many times...
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

I think I'm going to buy it for 360, since it is only $30. If I like it, I'm going for the 3ds port as well. Hopefully it will reignite my interest for sonic.

If you can try before you buy on the 3DS port, I'd recommend that. It is definitely not cut from the same fabric as the console/PC version.

Looks like I'll pass then.

so in level 2 I am hitting a bug that causes Sonic to continually sidestep while in forward-facing mode. Guess I'm waiting for a patch :(

Are you touching the shoulder buttons at all? Those will cause him to side step to dodge columns and enemies while maintaining forward momentum. I have never heard of a bug that would do that.
