For those of you that aren't part of the PC gaming world, you may not be too familiar with mods. Basically free, fan-created DLC, mods can put an interesting spin and add significant value to the base game that they're made for. It's gotten to the extent that certain mods have become more popular than the game they've been created for, eventually leading to the release of a brand new game.
Sonic Generations for the PC has had a fairly strong modding community for some time, but a recent project just might top them all. A fan has created a mod wherein Sonic and all his sidekicks are replaced by Mario and company. Usually, fan mods aren't of terribly high quality, but this could almost pass for being an official project. See what you think:
What do you think? Will you be downloading this? Does this make you wish that Sonic and Mario would crossover in a platformer some day? Drop us a comment in the section below.

Slow news day...? Regardless, it's definitely an awesome mod that really shows dedication put into it. And it reminds me that I have an urgent to get a gaming PC...... > . <
@Haljalikakick64 Haha, like you wouldn't believe! All the same, I think I'll be downloading this.
at most 49 days until direct.
Haha, my brain is completely destroyed today. I just looked at the picture, and for some strange reason, thought Sonic Generations, a 4 year-old game, is coming to the Wii U.
I'm going to bed.
"Best Mario game in years"
~what Mario fans would say if Mario was in the same condition as Sonic and vice versa
Well, this does look nice. It's too bad that Mario can't do really any of this stuff. Too bad.
Always wanted to glitch Mario through every single wall I run into. Super Mario + Bad Sega Camera Angles = OTP.
@Mariominer Mario can't really do anything, seeing as he's a fictional character.
Looks really good. Sega should consider porting Mario to Sonic games. I am sure that Nintendo fans will like it.
Man I wish this had a mac version without needing to run bootcamp.
Mario doesn't put his hands behind while running. They didn't get this mod right.
Man, every time I see Sonic Generations running at 60 fps I hope Sonic Team manages to get a boost-style Sonic game running at 60 on a console. While Unleashed (Daytime stages at least), Colours and Generations are a lot of fun and really beautiful for their consoles, after you play Generations at 60 you never want anything else.
Somari Generations.
Ooooh, Yes please very much!!
I for one love what those modders can do, especially with Sonic Generations.
I am absolutely loving the Sonic Generations Unleashed mod without having to play the Werehog levels xD
I'll be even more interested if someone manages to do a mod of Super Mario 3D Land using this, (It's my Fave 3DS Game btw
Any mods like this are very welcome in this gamers opinion
@Randomname19
Exactly.
I actually love this game as it is, but this is a pretty cool/goofy mod for some people.
Sigh...I wish I had the PC version...
Mario, the fastest plumber alive
Huh, I actually own this version of the game. I'd check it out but for some reason it just doesn't want to work on my computer.
That looks amazing.
@Splatburst I know, right? It just looks so very wrong.
Well I can see a C&D being issued very shortly. Which is a shame because the guy that made this has obviously put a lot of effort into it and it looks almost like it could have been a professional job well done and good luck
Really not anything special... There's hundreds of videos like these on YouTube — it isn't all that hard to replace character models. They've even done it with Kirby before.
Eh. Never understood the whole PC modding scene. Mario and Sonic in games together is nothing new now PC elite.
Heeeeeey Dako Neko finally finished this. Been wondering when it'd be done. Definitely gonna download this, maybe tomorrow. Though some of Dako's other mods seem to be better/smoother??? I might just be remembering incorrectly, this mod just seemed a bit off for some reason, not sure why. Glad it's done though nonetheless.
@Edwards Nah, this stuff is everywhere on Sonic Gen PC. Plenty of Nintendo character mods like Luigi and Lucario and level mods from other Sonic games and even Rainbow Road from Mario Kart.
Well, I found a new mod I'm getting.
Looks pretty nice.
