User Rating: 8.5 | Sonic Adventure PS3

This milestone is Sonic's stellar history holds many fond memories of sleepless nights and annoying VMUs. It's hard to believe it has been 12 years since Sonic Adventure changed the platform game forever, and looking at it now, it must be said that this game was the benchmark for its time in both visual style, and super-fast platforming. Way ahead of its time in both graphics, voice acting, and above all - game complexity, its sheer size, and wealth of imagination were applauded, and should still be, for it is still one of the most playable, challenging platformers out there, and an absolute joy for older gamers who were there back in the day.

Sonic Adventure takes Sonic into true 3D world for the first time, and apart from the odd glitch, and some frustrating camera angles, it does exceedingly well, and even seasoned Sonic fans will not find this a walk in the park by any means. The Chao breeding simulation is a nice distraction to the relentless onslaught of the main game, and although being al little silly, those things are indeed rather cute.

As said before, for the time of its release, the graphics and sound are amazing, and the game structure, although slow to reveal itself, is extremely clever. Sonic Adventure has ported well to the PS3, playing virtually identically to the original, which was a brilliant game to begin with. Absolutely 100% essential to Sonic fans, and still one of the best platformers out there.

    Ahhh, the Dreamcast. A very underrated system. The very first console to have online capabilities built into the system instead of purchasing adapters to go online (e.g. Playstation 2). But despite the Dreamcast's great ... Read Full Review
