I'm not sure there is all that much randomization. I found that the key to beating the game on normal and most levels on impossible (I have yet to beat the final level on impossible) was memorization. If you know where the safe ground is, most random effects can't touch you.
Also, I totally agree with all the 3D Sonic comments (who doesn't?)

What good 3D Sonics? Obviously I'm not the person to ask, but from what I've heard at least one of the Wii games was good enough to be called "good". And wasn't the Dreamcast one also not bad? I'm not sure there is all that much randomization. I'm not sure, in the end my main problem really was not being able to see much. But, it did seem to me that in the second level even apart from rocks also single bricks could break the ground, so I think it's at least not fully scripted, if at all. |

I think I wouldn't even enjoy the good 3D Sonics.
What good 3D Sonics? You haven't played Sonic Adventures 1 and 2?  As for this game, I'd fucking play the living SHIT OUT OF THIS FOR DAYS AND DAYS TO COME, but alas, I have a horrible computer(s)! |

The game is very well optimized, but yes, you do need a graphics card with some shaders.

Is everyone playing this with a controller? I tried playing it with a keyboard, and the controls are terrible.  |

I played it on a keyboard and it was fine for me.
By the way, you can use the arrow keys.

I was using the arrow keys. Every time I tapped left or right, my little dude would either hardly move, or jerk spastically in one direction or the other. There seemed to be no in-between.

Yo. Unleashed 360/PS3 was decent, despite the negative hype. The Wii version was much less decent, and is a completely different game. Also, Sonic games weren't actually all about speed. Go back and play the classic Genesis ones everyone loved. They were more about flow than anything else; continuous speed came from mastering flow. |

Then there must be a problem there, cause it was very responsive for me with a keyboard. |

Yeah, I didn't have any problems with the keyboard.
