Hey guys,
Just been getting into this and loving it just as much, if not more than Mario Kart!
Question: Ive just bought the Metal Sonic pack off PSN, ive installed it, but i cant see where Metal Sonic is in the game? Where am i supposed to find him? he's not on the character roster.. any help?

Just checking - do the game and DLC have the same region?..Go319 said:
Cause I had to buy this DLC twice. :lol (didn't pay attention that I was buying a EU DLC to the US game the first time)

The game and DLC should be from one region. Sorry, looks like you'll have to rebuy it off the US Store.Go319 said:

The PC version worked great for me in Windows XP but now on Windows 7 (X86) I'm getting a lot of slowdown and compatiblility mode breaks the game, are there any patches or fixes?
So I finally bought this for 15 bucks. I can safely assure all of you that Mario Kart broke Kart games forever. Stupid drifting to get boost is the stupidest "innovation" I've ever seen on a game.
The double Steering is pretty dumb, but I'd almost say it's by design. If it was mapped to the right stick, it wouldn't have been much of a problem. And, to quote Mario Kart again, if everybody does it, it's not really a problem, is it?
Great render of the characters and competent gameplay (pretty much like Sega All-Star Tennis or whatever is that called).
Opa-Opa is always a plus.
I'm content with my purchase. Now, to ponder if I should buy the DLC or not.

As somebody who bought all of the DLC....
Metal Sonic is cool, and the Death Egg stage is OK but not great. But the price is fairly ridiculous and spoils the whole deal.
And don't even ask about forklift Ryo. The fact that they're charging money for that is borderline offensive.

I'm with him. The track is nice but the price is highway robbery.

Tails or whoever just grunting at the start was strange.
I wonder if you can still do wheelies with the bikes? Didn't seem to be any extra buttons for it, and the slider only had left and right.

The Metal Sonic & Death Egg Zone DLC is on sale for 320 MS points this week. Seems like a fair price, finally:

Yeah it's really well done; other devs could take a page from Sumo's book on that front.ZeMMiK said:

Agreed.
I'm hoping they make another one. They could do so much more with all the properties Sega has.

I know you're being sarcastic but there really are a lot of Sega characters they could mine, sure they're not all super well known but that's part of the fun:Box of Bunnies said:

It was a dig at the excessive amount of Sonic characters in the first game, not a suggestion that Sega lacks a rich stable of characters/franchises.
If they do make a sequel, the five characters I'd love to see included would probably be Bayonetta, NiGHTS, Ristar, Segata Sanshiro and Vyse.

Can't speak to the PC version in particular, but yes I think the game is worth playing for SP alone. I barely touched MP.

Get Transformed man, you can buy it for peanuts and it's AMAZING.

Transformed is really good and it's worth buying that version, however the first one is more solid to me, it has less collision glitches and is only ground vehicles, has it's own unique tracks and if you can get it for a cheap price it's worth owning.

I tend to agree
Going thru Transformed on Hard and onward via Vita and you REALLY start to notice a lot of the collision glitches. It's like the game just isn't designed for the speed you find yourself going at sometimes when trying to keep up with the broken AI.

I noticed plenty of collision glitches in the first game, too. In one of the Final Fortress tracks there's a loop you drive around and if you're in a specific place you'll drop through the floor on your way up the loop. When I've had a better idea where it was I've even forced CPU racers in to the spot where collision fails so I win the race easier.
Since being patched ASR is also way more prone to locking up, or at least, it is on consoles. The same goes for opponent A.I. - post-patch, they get stuck on walls a lot more.
Still, for how cheap that first game probably is, it might be worth owning just to have more tracks to race around. It's a good game.

Just picked this up for the Wii U and I'm wondering if there's a way to stick enemy AI into the Battle Modes? It's a little boring with just 3 players.
