An 8.0 is a bad thing? Sounds promising to me. I was worried Nintendo Power would find fault in the Multi-player (they mentioned it in the preview) but this is promising. Definitely picking this up next month.

Seriously though, this guy's making the game sound good. Whargh.
I hate getting myself swept into the cycle again, but if what he's saying is true;

engaging, unique, well-polished

Unique presumably means unlike any other Sonic titles we've had recently, which can only be a good thing. Well-polished? That'd make a change.
He doesn't mention any camera issues either. Interesting.

I may have to pick this up as well. But I think I'll rent it first. I'll be too busy with Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection, anyway. ^_^

Not necessarily, its the fact that Nintendo power having a tendency to give sonic games an 8.0. I mean, if they say this game is better then the Wii Unleashed,shouldn't it have gotten a higher score?

Different strokes for different folks. They said that the game design as a whole was better than Unleashed, they didn't make the amateur remark that it was a better game period. And Nintendo Power gave Sonic Heroes and (if I recall correctly) Shadow and both Sonic Riders either a 7.0 or 7.5, so they aren't have arsing it or demonstrating bias by giving the game a good score. They just know how to write a good review period.

Last 5 reviews on Sonic Games:
Sonic and the Secret Rings 8.5
Sonic Riders Zero Gravity 7.5
Sonic Chronicles 8.0
Sonic Unleashed 8.0
Sonic and the Black Knight 8.0

They do go into detail and I admit they do say key points... I don't know, sometimes I think the scores are a little wierd. *shrugs

An 8.0 for Unleashed? I guess they can only rate terrible games then. :/

They can't give ratings higher than tens, so if terrible games get good ratings, good games can't get ratings.

That's bull and you know it. Anyone who's actually read a Nintendo Power review within the past 2 years will tell you that.
