Xbox's BROKEN Sonic Generations Remaster

Would you buy the Sonic Turds Collection?

I would totally buy a collection of the worst Sonic games "Sonic Turds Collection" 😄 That's a weirdly fun idea

2:33 "What is this supposed remaster that comes with Shadow Generations doing?" Sonic x Shadow Generations is: - Giving a FULL native 4K, as in pixel perfect 4K, not a 720p picture being pushed out through a 4K signal. - Giving a real 60FPS upgrade that doesn't break the game's physics like the FPS Boost does for both Generations and Unleashed. - Updated textures and UI elements so that the UI and textures don't look pixelated and grainy on 4K TVs anymore. - Packaging the game with the pre-order DLC that hasn't been available to download since the game came out on consoles. - Allowing the game to be played on modern platforms (Switch, PS4, PS5) - Allows original Xbox One/S/X owners to play Sonic Generations in 60FPS because FPS Boost doesn't work on the Xbox One, only the Series' consoles. - Plays the game natively off of the hardware and take full advantage of the system capabilities, as opposed to a built-in 360 emulator that doesn't take full advantage of either the Xbox One or the Series' consoles. You don't just drop a game in an emulator and call it a remaster. Nintendo did that with Mario 3D All Stars and you all crucified them for it. If you can drop the 360 disc in the modern platform and play the 360 version of a game, it's not a remaster, it's the 360 version being played on better hardware. Also HDR isn't in the original PC release (it's also a bad port even by 2011 standards. It just doesn't require a beefy computer to run). And running the game at higher than 60FPS (something that even Colors Ultimate got right) breaks the game.

Honestly... I'd still rather have 60fps and better visuals and tolerate one broken shortcut and Sonic 1 not working, which I never played anyway... But terrible remaster? Not anywhere near.

I don't really see a reason for this video to exist other than to point out these 2 bugs, it doesn't outright ruin many's experience with the game so... also truly a bummer they probably will never patch these bugs out but eh, what're you gonna do?

Sonic fans being sonic fans hating sonic for existing

Regarding the emulated version of Sonic 1, I haven't had the game be slowed down despite using FPS boost so I have no idea how this happened to you

4:24 “GiVe Us ThE lOw FrAmE rAtE cUt!”

11 minutes to talk about two bugs, rent may have been due

3:20. No. Generation's PC port is unironcally one of the absolute worst ports of that era. It is hilariously, horribly made and its held together by duct tape and prayers. The most insane example of this is that turning on the enhanced Unleashed shaders (AKA Unleashed Pipeline) to improve how several sections of the game look (+make it compatible with the Unleashed Project) actually makes the game run significantly better..for some reason. Also, the CPZ bug is also just there on PC too. Weird thing is that it only happened after I updated my setup, but still.

No work was done by Sega for this as it was apart of Xbox's backwards compatibility program. There's not much Xbox could of done for those few issues without changing game code which was off the table for the program. For anyone without a pc, it's 100 percent worth having a broken shortcut and unplayable Sonic 1 so you can have 60 fps as it's a game changer.

2:05 sega released this? is this not part of Microsoft's back compat team's work? microsoft had a whole team that did this for a lot of x360 games for series X

Ah yes, I remember Antdude taking like, 5 seconds to point this out when he covered this.

1. Makes a video talking about a remaster with the main selling point of having 60FPS 2. Records footage of said version 3. Uploads the video at 30FPS Pup, what're ya doin'?

I just wanna say, for the longest time as a kid I could have sworn I had bought the super peel out in Generations, but I could never activate it, and never saw it again. Could never find anything about it on the wiki. But now I can see at 9:31 that it's infinite continues, which is such a relief to now know.

tbh the pc version of gens out of the box is HORRIBLY unoptimized without mods like better fxpipeline and direct3d 11, so having something like that oob is very valuable to people who can’t/don’t want to mod. i can run gens on intel hd graphics by downscaling the game drastically, with the only real downside being that it looks like i took my glasses off lmao

Iizuka already confirmed the Sonic 1 emulator won't be in SxS.

bro istg the chemical plant glitch is also in the 360 version its just that instead of happening 95% of the time its like 0.5% I had gotten this glitch many times before even getting a series x

I mean it's not a remaster. It's literally the 360 version running in backwards compatibility. A remaster would be a port onto the system. Plus it was done by Xbox themselves. You can also turn off FPS boost on the game if that's causing issues too

What you mean? That Sonic 1 emulation is running just fine! Just like the original on GBA!
