Pick up Mega Collection instead.

User Rating: 3 | Sonic the Hedgehog PS3
Sonic was great in its 2D days. The original trilogy was hard, but Sonic 1 was great, 2 was awesome, and 3 was okay. After 1995, the series went to the dump. That said, despite the pretty graphics, this game is dumb. You run around like a maniac doing nothing. This game is pointless. Sonic should have stopped in 1995 (except for mega collection, etc).

My recommendation is with this money, pick up the original four 1991-94 Sonics for Genesis, one copy for you and your friend. Or pick up Mega Collection - that is what SEGA should be focusing on.

That said, SEGA is still a great company - I'm giving this game a 3.0 even though I'm a SEGA guy - but the company still has potential. I, myself, would like to see a new 2D Sonic game made in the vein of the original Sonic games of the good days.
