The creation of Sonic the Hedgehog, part one of a four part series.
Chili Dogs. Dr. Robotnik. Spin Dash. Death Egg. All things forgotten in the history of Sonic, and all things that make their return in Sonic Generations.
Sonic Generations begins, aptly enough, with classic Sonic playing through a new stage based on the original first Sonic stage: Green Hill Zone. Sure enough, there are all sorts of enemies like Motobugs (lady bugs on wheels) and Choppers (piranha bots that bite at Sonic while he crosses a bridge.) Sonic runs through a two-dimensional plane through the entirety of the stage, and with just the press of a button (or the traditional down + the jump button) he can charge up a spin-dash and take off.
Come celebrate Sonic's anniversary by sharing your memories of the series alongside the PixlBit staff!
Earlier this year, on June 23, Sonic turned 20 years old. As a celebration of his legacy, Sega is releasing Sonic Generations today on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC, with the 3DS version to follow later this month. The game celebrates the history of the franchise by joining old and new into one singular game that promises to mesh and meld all of what makes Sonic great. PixlBit's staff, growing up during the era of the blue blur, have fond memories of Sonic and his games and have come together to share their memories of the mascot.
The original Genesis classic will be unlockable in the game.
Sonic Generations will have levels taken from various previous games in the series. Green Hill Zone, Chemical Plant Zone and Speed Highway are all represented in the new 20th Anniversary game. It was revealed today that players will be able to experience the original Green Hill Zone with Sonic Generations.
The handheld version of the game will be released not long after the console versions.
Sonic Generations will be the first title of Sega's mascot for the 3DS and it now has a release date. Although the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC version of the game will be released on November 1, the 3DS version will follow on November 22, 2011.
