Customer Reviews

perfect for 2 players
when you get to a certain point in the one player mode and unlock the 5th player, there isn't much of a challenge left in continuing one player mode e.g. unlocking parts of the characters outfits...., but - brilliant fun when you play by wireless (each player needs their own disc for the wireless game) - but great fun rivalliing each other!!

First game....
This game was supplied with my PSP when I bought it yesterday so I haven't had much time to play it fully yet.
So far the game is excellent. Amazing graphics, good sound and the controls are easy to manage.

You get to chose from four characters with the possibility to unlock a hidden one.

Two things however, make sure you have plenty of time to play it as it won't be easy, even on the easy setting (my frustration made my downgrade it to only 4 stars), and a memory card is a MUST!!!!

Sonic for the PSP - Well worth the wait
You thought sonic on other platforms was good? This is even better! Imagine the retro 2D style of the older sonic games, combined with 3D graphics - and that is what this is. Lots of different combinations of settings, goals and story modes make this game have a long shelf life - and you have to keep going back to beat your score. Would definitely recommend this to PSP owners - and also to possible owners!
