I've seen that the demo came out and downloaded it.
I was very disappointed when I saw that Sonic drives a damn car(three months ago). He's not supposed to drive (Sonic Drive was still a good game anyways).
But other then that, it's a damn good game.
The controlls are easy. The right shoulder button is for accelerating the left shoulder button to drift and the A button to use items (X for PS3 obviously).
You can choose between one of 22 characters of the world of SEGA including Ryo, Billy Hatcher, Alex Kidd and even Banjo & Kazooie (why them? They're property of RARE not SEGA :s)
The items are nothing special but unlike in every Mario Kart game each character has their own "All-Star Power". Something like the Smash-Ball in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Sonic will transform to Super Sonic and gain a speed boost and auto-controll (like actually all other characters) until the power ends, so stay steady.
In the demo I got the All-Star Power with Banjo & Kazooie. Kazooie will get his magic wrench from the game "Banjo & Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts" you will gain a speed boost and auto controll while Kazooie summon a few
Jiggies on the raceway, blocking the way of the other drivers. The cool thing is, each character has his own All-Star Power and thus their own little BGM while using it. So Banjo and Kazooie get their
Theme Song to play while using the power :D
There are 24 maps, most of them themed on Sonic The Hedgehog maps (obviously).
Something that very suprised me is that the game will even come out for PC and downloadable at steam.
Platform(s) Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, Nintendo DS, PC, Mobile[1]
I'm going to buy it at the end of this month. I'm very looking forward to it :D
Again a game with Sonic that is actually good after all those mistakes the Sonic Team went through.
