On April 18, 2011, Sonic Generations was finally announced for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. A GameStop release list printed on May 7, 2011 showed a Nintendo 3DS port of Generations with a tentative release date of 31 December 2011. Later in the month, a Sega-Sammy earnings report listed Nintendo 3DS and PC versions of the game; however, a revised version of the report no longer listed either version. [20] The June 2011 issue of Nintendo Power finally confirmed a 3DS version of Sonic Generations. [21] It contained an in-depth preview and interview with Takashi Iizuka. We haven’t been exactly vague about which Sonic games tend to be the worst. Once games went 3D, Sonic just couldn’t keep up, and they even lost what made his old 2D games great in the process. That was, with a few exceptions, true until Sonic Generations came out. This was one of the first times a Sonic game split itself between classic levels, only now presented in 2.5D, and the new 3D style. Old Sonic would take the lead in classic levels, utilizing his old moveset, while modern Sonic kept pushing spectacle via high speed and dynamic set pieces with a third-person camera perspective. This is the second 3D Sonic game in which the player starts a new game and are taken to the first stage, rather than showing the cutscene first. The first game to do this was Sonic Colors.

The first fully 3D entry on this list does come with plenty of asterisks attached to it. Is it the best 3D Sonic game? Well, that depends on what you look for in a Sonic game. If gameplay is king for you — and we assume that’s true for most people — then Sonic Adventure 2might be the best option. Of all the prior attempts to figure out how to translate Sonic’s speed into 3D, especially how the camera should work, this game manages to hold together very well under the strain. Unlike Sonic Adventure,the sequel is also far less cryptic in terms of how to progress thanks to it ditching the confusing hub world — though the story, cutscene direction, and voice acting are still at that “so bad it’s good” level of quality. Surprisingly, however, it's Modern Sonic that's the star of the show. Make no mistake, the familiarity of the level design and the quality of the action when playing as Classic Sonic is spot on, but because it's taken SEGA so long to produce an enjoyable set of three-dimensional Sonic stages, the Modern Sonic components of Sonic Generations feel like something of a revelation.
