By far the best sonic game.
The gameplay is basicily the same as the previous two games. They did add a couple new things though such as the flame,bubble and magnetic sheild. All 3 of them very usefull. Much better then the plain shiels in the past two games. Also another new thing is the special stages. You have to run around collecting blue spheres in a 3d envirement. Which was really cool looking back then. It is very, very, very addicting and really fun. Alot better then the past two games special stages.
Another good thing about this game is the music. Most sonic games do have good music but this ones music is especialy good. The tunes are very catchy and are really hard to get out of your head, which isn't a bad thing cause they are great tunes. I actualy found out that micheal jackson helped compose the music on this game. Wierd huh!
This is a game everyone should own because it is so great. It is very easy to get ahold of because its been throughn on a million sega greatest hit titles. You can get it on the Wii shop channell and on the new SONICS ULTIMATE GENESIS COLLECTION for the PS3 and 360 for only 30 bucks.
