IT'S A TYPO ON MY END, MODS PLEASE CORRECT THE THREAD TITLE TO-
Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing Transformed announced!
Thank you.

http://uk.xbox360.ign.com/articles/122/1223896p1.html

But Dreamcast owners will be particular thrilled to see Skies of Arcadia's Vyse, in a vehicle based on the Delphinus. Golden Axe's Gilius Thunderhead – who was originally planned for inclusion in the original – gets to ride a Ray Harryhausen-esque bronze creature that morphs into a turtle and an eagle. We're sworn to secrecy on the later stages, but suffice to say anyone who didn't think the first game was enough of a SEGA love-in is in for a treat. The fan service here is phenomenal, and the final unlockable in particular is one that will delight long-term Sega acolytes.

Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed is coming to Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PlayStation VIta, Nintendo 3DS and PC Digital Download sometime late in 2012.

Ristar and Vectorman are playable-

FUCK YES.

[Neuromancer]

Hit the water here, however, and you'll immediately notice tweaks to the handling – it's closer to something like Hydro Thunder Hurricane than a land-based arcade racer. And on the occasions you zoom above the track, there's a fully-fledged flight model, as you guide your now-winged vehicle through floating boost gates.

SWEEEEEEET!!!

[erpg]

Ha, funny. Other than Witcher 2, I've been playing the first pretty much all month.

I'm glad the handling was improved. The first has a kind of...glued to the track feel.

[Tizoc]

Seriously, Segata Sanshiro better be in this.
Release date is in Autumn it seems.

[Sponge]

AND IT BEGINS


SEGGGAAAAAAAAAA <3

[Nibel]

Needs Ryo Hazuki in fork lift chopper

I am very happy about Vyse but predictable. Both characters was wanted to be in first game but I'm glad that they brought them over in Sequel. :)

[Seven Force]

Vyse?

DAY 1!

[King of the Potato People]

Valkyria Chronicles and now this, these Skies reference better mean something.

[Elixist]

60 fps? Would buy on console if so.

[wwm0nkey]

Sega has been very awesome recently.

PSO2 having a smart F2P model
Jet Set Radio XBLA/PSN/PC
and now this.

Will be buying.

RIP :( T___T

[Salvadora]

Thought this was just WiiU,3DS & PSV.

Just a crazy rumor.

I would assume a Wii U version is also in development.

[Neuromancer]

RIP :( T___T

Gone but not forgotten

[Conrad Link]

Wonder Boy and Wii U please.

[Shadowlink]

http://uk.ds.ign.com/articles/122/1224011p1.html

Probably saving the WiiU announcement for E3.

[Criminal Upper]

What systems is this for again? Aside from 360?

Edit: nvmind

[Alextended]

More flying things, yay.

I hope it has a bit of DK Racing in it.

They need to refine the graphical style a bit too, tighten up the controls, and it'd be rad.

Edit: oh, screenshot. And EVERYONE is flying. DK Racing, yay!

I don't like the graphics style much again, it needs to be more cartoony...

This style makes it look like early CG, or like such characters superimposed on more realistically shaded environments.

Cel shading would be rad, including the realistic characters, like Ryo should be remade, not look like he's imported from Shenmue.

[Penguin]

Vyse?

I'm in.. don't need to know anything else!

[wwm0nkey]

looks good

[Pyrrhus]

Hope the PC version runs better this time. Definitely paying attention to this.

[morningbus]

The PC version better have online play this time.

[Sponge]

Oh! That reminds me, I wonder if console exclusive characters (or character) will be a thing again.

I remember reading the team wanted Mario for the Wii version, but I feel Captain Falcon works nicer simply because Sega worked an F-Zero game with Nintendo.

Makes me wonder if Banjo will be back, too.

[erpg]

Wait, VITA too? Looks like I'm buying two copies.

[Solstice]

I loved the first Sonic Racing. Honestly, I felt it was a hell of a lot better than Mario Kart Wii. So I am super hyped for this!

[Infernal Monkey]

Oh my yes.

[sixteen-bit]

60 fps this time, please.

[Stubo]

Handling is still that same blend of Mario Kart and OutRun, but with a little more heft to it – perhaps down to the involvement of lead designer Gareth Wilson, who worked on Blur and Project Gotham Racing during his time at Bizarre Creations.

SOLD!

[Jethro]

Sonic and his shitty friends racing. Played the first one didn't like it.

[erpg]

Oh my yes.

Man, I hope Opa-Opa doesn't have those horribly confusing animations this time around. Every time he looks backwards during a drift I lose control.

[IntelliHeath]

The two stages we played through were packed with shortcuts and alternative routes. A Panzer Dragoon-themed course naturally has you spending a fair bit of time in the air, while the Monkey Ball track allows you the choice of winding, narrow, barrier-free strips of track up above, or the wider stretches below that are slower but easier to negotiate.

:) AMAZING!

[C_H_T]

Probably saving the WiiU announcement for E3.

This will be crushed, when Nintendo announces Mario Kart HD for Wii U.

[snoopeasystreet]

They should put a car from renegade ops in it.

[sn00zer]

I want three things
-Story Mode....I dont care how dumb the story is
-Hubs
-A few extra months to spit shine the game...had a lot of minor issues

[Diablohead]

Obligatory

[cw_sasuke]

This will be crushed, when Nintendo announces Mario Kart HD for Wii U.

What exactly do you mean by "crushed" ?

[Neuromancer]

Those screens are amazing.

My biggest knock against the first game was level variety. Hopefully we'll get more totally unique tracks and not 3 Sonic ocean tracks that look a lot alike, 3 Sonic casino tracks that look a lot alike, etc.

[Baconsammy]

Sweet, the first was the best Kart game I've played since Crash Team Racing.

[Alextended]

Oh... I thought it would be like Diddy Kong Racing after I saw the first image. But now it looks like they just copied Mario Kart 7. Transforming from land to sea to air vehicles. Unless they don't transform and it's actually different courses and gameplay for each style, that'd be neat too, like getting 3 games in one. Hydro Thunder esque, Mario Kart esque, and um, the flying stuff. Win. Please.

[ActStriker]

Vyse!!

Might actually get this

[sn00zer]

Sweet, the first was the best Kart game I've played since Crash Team Racing.

SO true...but man game NEEDED a hub and story set up like CTR

[wwm0nkey]

I am fine with it copying Mario Kart. Mario Kart 7 is never coming to 360,PS3 or PC so I dont see it as that evil.

The commercial where he died was the last time I cried...

The poster seemed cool too

[canadian crowe]

For PC owners, the first game is on sale for 8 bucks at gamersgate.com. I was thinking about picking it up, but I'm not so sure with this coming out now.

[Selkies!]

Kart 3DS might be my favorite Kart game ever and I got bored before I mastered any of the tracks. Hell I didn't even finish mirror mode. It finally happened I guess, I'm tired of the genre.

I really liked the first All-Stars Racing, maybe I'll get this on some sort of sale. If the PC version has online, runs well and I can convince a few friends to pick it up maybe sooner.
