Inside, Spoiler Video of Lengthy Examples
Throughout this week we’ve been piecing together the clues that allude to a Super Sonic presence in Sonic Colors. To this point, the big question is whether the invincible form could be playable in the game’s main action stages.
This morning, that question was answered with a resounding Yes.
1stKirbyEver posted a ten minute YouTube video detailing Super Sonic’s playability across an array of action stages. How is this possible? The seven Chaos Emeralds must be obtained within the Sonic Simulator, and that requires the collection of red rings inside the main stages.
Below you’ll see Super Sonic speed through Aquarium Park, Starlight Carnival, and the first act of Terminal Velocity. Thanks to KuroBit, Kadeb and Grout through News Tips, as well as several comments on this morning’s piece, for cluing us in.













Damn, cannot see again
the dialogue at 1:20 cannot be timed more perfectly.
Robotnik: “for your safety, please avoid-”
Sonic: “SUPER SONIC!”
I’m glad that they added the classic Super Sonic gameplay (via collect 50 rings and free play as him).
My only issue so far is the music while playing as him… Its a constant loop of that one part from the opening. That will get very annoying very quickly.
From looking at this, I can say that he has infinite boosting power. I love the fact that Super Sonic is playable in a 3D game.

Holy shit, I just noticed it! XD
Still, seeing every single robot and motobug being owned so quick by that golden hedgehog makes me feel sorry for them. XD
Finnaly Super Sonic available in ecery stages in a 3d Sonic game
Beautiful. Why didn’t SEGA do this in the adventure games? This blows 2D Super Sonic out of the water.
Sonic Colors seems to be getting everything right.
=D
I will not be surprised if I consider this the best Sonic game ever.
Dear SEGA,
SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!
That is all.
Super Sonic is playable in a 3D sonic game?
THANK YOU SEGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SEGA I love you so much I want to kiss you, but there’s too many people working there so let’s leave it at that.
So, is the Final Boss normal Sonic?
You guys definitely need to word spoilers vaguely. I was spoiled just by coming to the site. This is exactly the type of spoiler I always avoid, the surprise alone would have been worth the 50 I put down. There’s no way I can make myself forget this in a week’s time, what a frickin’ let down.
MEGATOOOOOON
YES but not the first time ss was playable in a level (almost) they tried in 06 but it got scrapped the transformation model is still buried in the game though.
S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-Super Sonic playable in the stages in a 3D game ?!
*EXPLODES FROM EPIC HAPPINESS*
GT’s review on Shadow, Unleased, and 4 AIN’T GOT **** ON COLORS
I just gotta put it like this….. THIS IS THE REAL SONIC 4!!!! AND THIS IS THE REAL SONIC ADVENTURE 3!!!!!!!! Just look at its similarities with sonic 4. Badniks like motobug and crabmeat, 6 zones (like sonic 1 and 3), super sonic in playable levels (like sonic 4), beautiful visuals and limited talking during stages
the videos MAKE ME FEEL LIKE ILL BE PLAYING SONIC 1-3 and SONIC ADVENTURE 1-2 AT THE SAME TIME!!!!!! i have no complaints about this game but only two things, the fact that super sonic is not in the final battle (but heck, it was like that in sonic 1 2 3 and 4), and the framerate cuz i dont understand how the menus, world map and stage selections run at 60fps but the actual gameplay and cutscenes run at 30!!! why couldnt sega just make the whole game in 60fprs cuz ive been waiting for a 60fps main series 3d game due to the fact that sonic storybook 1 and 2 ran at 30 and sonic unleashed on wii and 360 run only at 30!!! but i wont let that ruin my experience next week! this will be the best game since sonic adventure 1!!!!!!
Whelp.
It’s confirmed. Game Trailers is fucking retarded to have given a 3D SONIC THE HEDGEHOG GAME WITH PLAYABLE SUPER SONIC A 6.4 OUT OF 10.
God now that makes me even angrier just thinking about it.

I think the Game Land acts run in 60fps, because it has simple background, yes! that’s the reason why this game in 30fps!
tommorow i get it
Uk lol
I don’t care what Sega says, this game is so win that it deserves to be part of main canon. Sega, give yourselves a BIG pat on the back because you deserve it.
Welcome back, Sonic. We’ve missed you.
Possibly the greatest Sonic ever? well, certainly the best 3D one. Itll have to blow me away to knock S3&K of its mantle. Right now, its putting up one hell of a fight though.
@Haru
Yeah, the fact that this game marks the first ever 3D Sonic game (in the main canon series) where Super Sonic is playable in all stages bumps the score up to an 9/10 for me. ^__^
@Amuro
look on wiki.this game IS an installment into the main series of the sonic games. it sure doesnt look like spinoff like the storybook games or a racing game!
wow thats pretty awsome that you can become super sonic within levels, just like in the original sonic games, but i dunno…this game kinda disopointed me in more ways then it impressed me, the super sonic part is sweet, i like how the aliens give you differant powers, but the levels are to short and there more 2d than 3d, wich can slow you down big time,i think sonic games should be all about going as fast as possible mostly through the whole game, i think sonic unleashed was my favourite followed closely by the black knight, even thou unleashed had some really shitty low budget parts, like talking to people in town, and the werewolf thing was kinda wierd…it still had the best fast levels out of all the current 4 sonic wii games by far,it was the perfect combination of 2d and 3d, and its sweet how you collect medals in that game wich makes it really hard to ace, i hope the next sonic game they make is more like unleashed (just probably without the werewolf slow levels) but make it so you can become super sonic without having to wait untill the end of the game, the makers of sonic are on the right track they should just try spending alot more time making a new sonic game and not rush it
