Customer Reviews

A good sonic game
Nothing like the old mega drive versions, but still good.
It doesn't relaly have much of the old sonic magic but it is a great game to play.
Those who have a dreamcast and have played on sonic adventure 1 and 2 will be familiar with the game. It has some changes but essentially it is the same thing.
There is 4 teams on the game, however only two of them are good enough to use.
This is a fun game and is enjoyed by people around 11-14.

The only decent 3d Sonic platformer in my opinion
Since Sonic stepped into the 3d platform adventure genre , most of his recent games have left a somewhat bitter lacklustre taste in my mouth

Sonic has really lost his edge since when he was last popular in the era of 2d 90s platformer ( at the time his games exceled very well on the megadrive / genesis )

I found sonic heroes to be the only decent 3d sonic adventure game

the team style format makes a nice change and gameplay requires abit more brainwork than previous installemnts of this series .. but fear not : it makes it that much more fun !

and i guess the kids will enjoy the voice work as they guide them through the game ( although serious gamers won't like being TOLD what to do every 30 seconds )

I only wish the teams were really that much different from eachother ...... there's barely much difference between their play styles ... and it would have been nice if all teams had their own levels .... but then again .... this is a sonic game .. so never really expect too many level/some types .....

So yeah all in all this game will keep you entertained solid for a few weeks , especially if you're a sonic fan !

I haven't played shadow the hedgehog ... but i heard it's pretty bad ... so i'll give it a pass ......

That's why i'm rating this game as the only decent sonic 3d adventure game !
