IIRC, Sally has always had at least a vest.
Wrong, at least boots. She didn't have the vest in the early stages, which, granted, pretty much every Sonic comic before the assassination plot was pretty awful and felt like a shitty version of the AoStH series, so it's pretty easy to overlook that. Honestly, the comics didn't even start being good until #51, when Robotnik was dead and stuff.

also, why the fuck is sally's computer a furry
Man I totally lost interest after the assassination. Too many new weird characters and evil people showed up, it just lost that Satam vibe and felt like that series was over.

No shit, Iizuka, it was YOU. Everybody knows it was YOU.
A desolate place, without any trace
It's only the cold wind I feel
It's me that I spite, as I stand up and fight
The only thing I know for real
There will be bloodshed!

I heard Kotaku gave the WiiU version a bad review and the 3DS version a good one, based on level designs.
Looking at the screen I see a countdown instead of a counter going up... that kinda sucks because I like to have all the time I want to explore and not worry about speed... not saying 10 minutes isn't enough, but still.

So, the game released here in Australia (and in Europe, too) yesterday and I've played it a bit; made it to the third area. Based on first impressions, it's pretty freaking hard, but that may also be attributed to the fact that there are new controls that take some time getting used to (I mean, hold a button to run? The heck? xD) I had already managed to die maybe 15 times and get a single game over as early as the third level.

It is also pretty slow, which does get kinda annoying. I've also heard (and this might be a spoiler, so I'll spoiler it to be safe) that...

Spoiler: click to toggle

All in all, fun game, but maybe not as fun as previous ones. Also slow. But again, first impressions; only played it once thus far because my cousin has been over playing Minecraft and Skylanders SWAP Force with my mum. For all I know, this all might've been mentioned in that IGN review, but I'm not touching the fuck out of IGN's reviews.

I like it when people use the word "gay" in any context other than a homosexual one - it only proves that they have the maturity of a five year old, as if their obsession with shooters didn't already do a good job of pointing that out. It's also pretty amusing that he pointed out Skyrim considering the fact that, y'know, it's set in the bloody medival era and doesn't even have muskets, let alone generic modern firearms.

But just for fun, let's play around with his logic a bit.

game - gun = gay
game + gun = -gay
game + gun + Arem = ???

Something else, too. Unnecessary as fuck touch and gyro controls for the Color Powers. And only some of them (AKA Cyan Laser) have traditional control alternatives.

Personally, I don't mind those kinds of controls for the most part, as they seem to fit with the game they're designed for. But here they're just unintuitive and frustrating as all hell. I died even more times than I should have in the last level of the third area trying to get the fucking Rocket power to actually fucking work.

I have both reserved because I finally found a source that said they're different enough to warrant it.

GameTrailers gives Sonic Lost World (Wii U) a 7.6, mainly chiding cheap deaths and occasionally awkward platforming.

That being said, they actually gave Sonic Lost World some good appraisal.

Now see, that I could actually believe. I'm having a blast with the game so far, but I'm not gonna lie, the new controls take a lot of getting used to after literally a whole generation of "BOOSTBOOSTBOOST". I'm up to Silent Forest so far and I still make newbie mistakes every now and then. My guess is that like Unleashed, the best value comes in replays.
