At first I had no interest in this game, but now, man, I MUST have this game, it looks so fun.

Yeah, no kidding It was the same people that wrote Madworld's commentators or something like that IIRC, it shows.

Some of my favorites
"No aliens were harmed in the creation of this park. They were all harmed after the park was created".

"We know they look delicious, but please refrain from licking the rides, THAT would be disgusting. Do you know where those rides have been?! People have been sitting on those rides! With their butts! Ok, go ahead, lick them, don't say we didn't warn you."

"We seem to be losing pressure on level 17. Please hold your breath until you pass out from oxygen starvation. Then you won't care. Enjoy the ride!"

"We hope you're enjoying this sunny day here at the park. Sadly a sunny day once again means that the choco coaster is out of order...due to melting."

If I could I'd quote almost all of them honestly

I read on Wikipedia that it was the guys from Happy Tree Friends writing the script as well. This game was in good hands.

"No Aliens were harmed in the creation of this park, they were harmed after the park was created."

Genius, GENIUS, I TELLS 'YA.

On a side note, I have Planet Wisp's BGM stuck in my head. Though I don't mind at all.

It's a standard .aax, relatively simple.

Wow, I'm loving this game fore and more by the day. To be honest, I had a dream about playing it last night.

I woke up, and now I'm sad.

[Rayl]

Played and beaten it already.

Two minor complaints: It's too short and it's too easy. That's pretty much it.

Yeah sure each of the worlds (Terminal Velocity) have six acts but most of the acts are pretty short apart from one or two per world. My favourite world was probably Asteroid Coaster for music (ESPECIALLY Act 3), Planet Wisp for design (and it's music but not QUITE as much as Asteroid Coasters music) and Starlight Carnival for overall enjoyment.

[ZeroCracked]

I thought it would be short. Oh well.

Anyways, I gotta put off buying it for a month or two, as I need to get my dad a birthday present, then get my dog a rabies shot, then buy said dog a new ID tag, which all of that would take up my 20 dollar allowance for the next two months.

[Rayl]

To be fair i blitzed through it because i had a day free and because i'd put in alot of Unleashed practice. If you're good at Unleashed's day stages then i'd say you'll find this easy enough.

I see, but it still seems short. I suppose it'll take me slightly more time since I've never even played unleashed save for a demo of it at Gamestop, and maybe once or twice on my friend's 360.

[ST Jestah]

@Rayl: So, other than the fact that it's short, would you say it's worth the full price of $50?

[ZeroCracked]

Gamestop is gonna have the used for 40!

[STM]

100%'d it.

Super Sonic was worth it. All S Ranks does nothing but allow bragging rights.

"SUPER SONIC!"

(everything dies)

Putting the shortness of the game aside? I'd say try and find it at $40. It's a good game (and a fairly amusing performance by the new actors to boot i may add) and got me pretty pumped to continue playing in certain areas, Planet Wisp is a sight to behold my friend.

[STM]

Some of the views on Starlight Carnival are quite beautiful too.

I also liked the enshadowed Earth in Asteroid Coaster.

[ST Jestah]

So try to find it used then. 'K sounds fair enough.

Truth is I'm trying to safe money for other games that are coming out early 2011 (e.g. Last Story, Zelda Skyward Sword), though I heard a lot of good things about the game and am willing to get it, but I needed someone else's opinion(s) to see if it's really worth buying it now while it's still fresh.

[STM]

You may not even need to wait that long for the price of a new copy to go down. Sega games drop in price really fast for brand new copies.

[Rayl]

The view going down Terminal Velocity is also quite awesome as well.

Also did anybody else get a Jakob Elevator vibe from Terminal Velocity? Or is that just me?

[ST Jestah]

@STM: Now that you mention it, Madworld did drop rather quickly in just a week after it's release (at least at my store). So I should probably give it some more time before I go out and buy it if I want it fresh-from-the-oven-new.

[Flame]

Just got this. havent put it in yet, but the cover... it's so shinyyyy O.O

[Blackhook]

I played the DS version. I gotta say it is more fun than I thought it would be

[STM]

I do love the Special Stage music. It gets you rather pumped.

[Hypershell]

It's a standard .aax, relatively simple.

No experience with those.  Need to at least be able to encode them in order to accomplish anything.

I dare say, even if the game is short, you're a bigger man than I for 100%ing it.  Sega has a fine mastery of mundane checklists, and "searching" in Sonic stages just doesn't work for me.  I nabbed 90-something red rings on my first play, went back to collect what I missed, and within TWO ACTS was questioning my life or lack thereof.  Both times I got four rings and spent about a dozen replays looking for that last one to somehow elude me.

I can't endure that 36 times over.  To Gecko OS, I go.

[Flame]

Finally put it in.
What a delightfully odd game. trying to get a hang of it. Its interesting. Its like Unleashed's day sections, but at the same time, COMPLETELY different.

[Jericho]

Got this game for Christmas. This might be the most fun I've had in the series since Sonic3K and also my underdog pick for best platforming OST of 2010. The Terminal Velocity Act 1 intro is like the gaming version of the distilled essence of GET HYPE.
