Finish the game right away, no 100% of course and with a big of ballad at the end. It's fun and only mildly infuriating on some passage  Definitely an improvement, multiple path on modern impress sometimes, fun but not great, the first levels are the best (not green hill), then they came back to stupid level design (crisis city, a bit of seaside palace, and planet wisp  ) bottomless pit, small platform, etc... They still confuse difficulty with sadism.  Now they nail the modern formula pretty much  , need a small bit of refinement, They still don't get 2D level design, classic sonic is nerf.  Control and collision are also not up to my standard,  (I rage on mario galaxy wich have thousand time more than this), they should mix this with a bit sonic adventure (which was also more reliable and reactive). It's like they don't care about the reality of collision and imprecision of control while doing level design (small platform, no margin, weird shape that kill everything) :/ Camera is perfect. Come on hurry and make an open world sonic asap  |

Fought the final boss and...wow, that was disappointing. Really, really disappointing. Oh well! Everything else was excellent. So I started on the challenge levels! I actually quite like them. They add interesting gimmicks and some of them are like short extra levels in themselves (Sky Sanctuary at night  ). It's much more fun to go for S-ranks on them; the game sort of stops being as easy, since you have to go as fast as possible for most of them (I made most of them by like 4 seconds or less). I haven't done any of the modern challenges yet though. |

Beat it. Final boss, too. Was fun, except for Planet Wisp, which was too gimmicky and irksome (like the game it's from, I guess). I guess as the only modern game with good reviews they kind of had to include it, though. Finding all the red rings in a level nets you a special skill, apparently. Apparently they plan to have dlc levels. Not sure what to think of that. Incidentally,  |

Finished my first playthrough, and absolutely loved it. The humour was great, especially the self-referential stuff (Robotnik and Eggman's conversations especially). Enjoyed the gameplay, it all flows fairly well and the annoying bits aren't that common or that annoying. Enormously glad that Classic Sonic doesn't speak.
I agree with Aloshi that the final boss was pretty disappointing, it's quite a massive anti-climax with confusing mechanics, rings you can barely see, and barely any sense of urgency. However, I much prefer that to a stressful, frustrating final boss that would ruin the end of the game. So I'm quite happy.
The length is fine for me; plenty of content in all the bonus challenges, and I like that I could potentially decide to sit down and replay the whole thing in one session if I wanted.
Oh yeah and the music's ace, plus the ability to choose custom music is a nice addition for replaying / challenges. Sonic booooom, sonic boooom, sonic boooooom!

If you have a NVIDIA optimus powered graphic card, you might need this stut to get the non shitty card recognized. Found a working fix
First of all, I want to thank everyone that gave me ideas, this is kind of a mashup of all fixes I've found that only worked partly. Unfortunately I don't remember where I read everything, so, thanks to everyone who tried to get the game running.
Second, this fix requires no extra screens or cables.
I cant guarantee it will work on every laptop, but if you have an Nvidia Optimus card, try it. Here's how to:
Begin with opening Nvidia control panel. In the "Manage 3D settings" tab, go to program settings and click add.
Navigate to your Steam installation path, and go to \steamapps\common\Sonic Generations\ and choose the sonicgenerations.exe file. Force it to use your Nvidia card. I don't know if it's necessary, but I also did this with the config exe.
After you have applied the settings, go to your desktop.
Right click and select screen resolution. In this window you should click detect. If you can see two displays that are grayed out and named after your video cards, you're probably good to go.
Choose your Nvidia card and select "Attempt to connect anyway on (VGA in my case)". Don't remember which drop down menu it is, just fool around a little. When you found it, click apply.
Then, choose extended desktop and apply again. This will force-activate your discrete GPU.
Now the fun starts.
The guide is edited from here
Open the Sonic Config tool and check if your Nvidia card is present. But instead, choose your Intel card and whatever other settings you want.
Now start Sonic, and it will propably work.
What's technically happening is that Sonic starts on the integrated GPU, But since the Nvidia card is active through the fake monitor, it will force itself to render Sonic thanks to the changes in the Nvidia control panel.
I really hopes this works for you, but leave a message if it doesn't, and I'll try to help you. Also test your rigs with this: http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri/intro.aspx |

My god, not only I'm surprised for all these codes being already found in such time span as I think that's an awesome way to make hidden messages.  |

Heard the PC version is the way to go ... will my machine run it?
3.40 Ghz
2.00 GB of RAM
Says it requires a dual core and mine isn't.

Hopefully there'll be a PC demo, as I'd be interested in seeing how well my PC runs it (probably not very well). I'd love to play the game at 60 though.
