Sonic X Shadow Generations remasters the fantastic original, but adds a new campaign that doesn't live up to it.

Sonic the Hedgehog games have always struggled when it comes to 3D platforming. Sonic Team recently found an open-world formula that worked in Sonic Frontiers, but before that, the game I would always point to as the one that did it best was Sonic Generations.

Whatever Sonic Team learned about good open-world design from Frontiers they clearly forgot when designing this, because there isn’t any fun to be had in navigating this hub. With each boss defeated you get a new power that unlocks more of the world, letting you surf over water, glide through the air, or get your Splatoon on, turning into a squid and swimming through dark ink.While I don’t think any of these are individually terrible, they just aren’t that much fun to use in the hub world.

It loses points for no Sonic Mania level though, as Sonic Team’s mission to erase that game continues. Tell me you wouldn’t love Studiopolis Zone in a full-3D art style. It’d be awesome and I’ll never forget what we were robbed of.
