I have been waiting for the Chao Garden to be introduced, come on Sega.... D:

Aaaand the Wii U has lost yet another exclusive game to the platform.

Honestly though, I thought the game was rather "okay" at best. Why is it that the quality of Sonic games are really inconsistent?

Except that it is also on the 3DS.

Picked up the 3DS version on my JP n3ds when it was on sale. I still don't know about the WiiU/PC.

Unless you use GOG or something.

This game is bad. It's not horrible, I guess. But I wouldn't recommend an okay at best game to anyone. Let's be honest, everyone who gave this game a chance did it because it's Sonic... It's certainly not because of the merits of the game itself, since it received mixed reviews. I really hope Sonic fans out there stop coping with Sega's shit and stop giving them money for lackluster games.

Meanwhile, those of you who have a Steam account, don't buy this game. Seriously, buy something worth your money, this game is barely worth it for free.

Oh my Lord the memories... I LOVED the Chao Garden on SA2B!! I spent SO much time raising mine! At one point, I had all Chaos chao maxed out! Then my memory card got corrupted (MadCatz). Over 10 years of data completely trashed. I wanted to cry. Oh wait. I did.

Depends on your taste, I guess. There are decent alternatives out there (though admittedly not often as large or convenient).

I get all my PC games from Humble and GOG. I'm not fond of DRM, especially if it means I might not be able to play my game in twenty years if the service goes down. Luckily there aren't many AAA games that interest me.

You know you can play Steam games without connecting to the internet, right? And if the game would have DRM if bought in Steam, it probably wouldn't be available from Humble and GOG anyway. There's no disadvantage to using Steam.

Steam is DRM, most games bought through it require Steam to run. Humble and GOG generally offer DRM-free versions. Steam's offline mode is limited to two weeks offline unless they changed it recently. Either way, it's just another thing that could go wrong, preventing me from playing my games. I also can't back up the games to my archive, at least not self contained and usable without modification. As long as I have the option to avoid things like it, I don't see a reason not to. Though, this is off topic, feel free to PM me if you find this conversation interesting.

I didn't know Wii U exclusives were ported over to the 3DS ;O;

Sarcasm, I was being snarky, look closer at the emoticons next time. :rolleyes:

Checking the URL in my post would have helped too, you know, where it says "3DS".

that's NOT the same version. the steam one is the wiiu version though which was supposed to be exclusive to wiiu.

Humble and G2A are the only exceptions, buying on steam is still better especially since they have a return policy.

I've never really had a need to return games. I don't really buy games unless I know I'll like them beforehand. I've never run into a game I couldn't get running, either. I think GOG has a refund policy, but I've never had a need to look into it. As stated before, this is off topic, feel free to PM me if you want.

oh trust me there are dated games still on steam that only run in XP but they still leave them on there.
