Demo First Impressions:
Wow! Sega had long decided not to put out any more true 3D Sonic games and these guys picked up the slack! This not only replicates the formula of Sonic Adventure, but improves on it in many ways. If only they add hub-worlds in the complete version, it'll be perfect!

The only issues I have so far is that the demo is quite raw and there seems to be very little support for keyboard and mouse. At least keyboard is mappable, but for the mouse there are no settings, which is a problem because it's the only way to manually control the camera. Camera's own movements are rather unreliable. Also, maneuvering at high speeds is difficult on keyboard because the steering is too sensitive. I get that thumbsticks are more capable of precise movement, but it's not like it can't be made better on the keyboard. Most Sonic games don't have this problem on PC.

That being said, looking forward to the full version. Hopefully they'll iron out bugs and add better keyboard+mouse support. This could seriously be the Sonic-killer.
