AMONG TOP 3 SONIC GAMES!
This is among my top 3 Sonic games ever created! It entails on a huge journey that involves Sonic going from place to place, completing missions in bringing the planet back together.
You see, Robotnik is at it again! He wants to split the planet apart by depleting the power of the Chaos Emeralds. In addition to that, Sonic got a curse from the depleting process where, at night, he turns into a werehog. Now you can play as Sonic the Werehog at evening to beat the evil genius.
I know what you viewers are thinking. You are thinking "Well wait a minute, didn't Game Informer rate the game 6 out of 10?" That is true, they did. They rated this beloved game way below what it well deserves by any standard.
I think what happened was simply this: they did not "really" play the game and expected too much from it.
First off, let's get into the gameplay. In general, the controls are pretty darn easy! During half of the downloads during the gameplay, they show you how to do a move. With this in mind, memorizing is pretty darn easy. For example, Sonic's moves: A is jump, X is attack, and B is duck. Is that easy enough? Yes. Just practice is needed, like most adventure games.
Some other gamers might get frustrated with the conrols, but that is the way video games have always been. Remember when Pac-Man died and it made you angry? Remember when Mario died and it made you angry? Remember when Banjo n' Kazooie died and it made you angry? Once again, practice is needed!
Graphics? Excellent! It really feels like you are actually there with Sonic. The texture and coloring are well done. It kind of reminds you of being a child and remembering Sonic not what he WAS, but what he SHOULD be.
His werehog look, believe it or not, is even better! He looks and plays very differently, but after getting used to it, I ended up loving it. You can do punch combos on enemies like Y,X,X or X,Y,Y or X,X,X or Y,Y,Y and more. His personality is a little too similar to his counterpart, but that can be overlooked.
The challenges present many obstacles for players, and keeps going on 'till end. I still haven't done everything on the game, and some of it is hard. So, if you are an adult and want some good challenges, then you've got it!
Easy controls, good graphics, challenging courses, I woulhave to say that this game is pretty dang good! There are a couple of little things in the game that hinder it, but they don't need investigation. Buy this game for a child, they'll love it. Especially since much of it refers to the Sonic X series.Read full review
