sonic goes fast. thats what he is about and if gettin on a hoverboard is another way to go fast i say go for it. this game is every bit as good if not better than the famous mario kart >8(. this game just offers something totally unique and differint than your average kart racing. thats one reason i had a blast playing it. one big problem was how long it lasted. i beat the game in im not sure but less than a week i believe. and there are no boss battles! in a sonic game there are no boss battles. even though he is on a hoverboard does not mean you have to change everything so much. and i do also think more people should have been involved in a extended story mode. multiplayer is a true fun experience! in both races and mini games like battle. and additional characters can be unlocked such as:shadow,rouge,cream,super sonic,and even NiGHTS! Bottom Line:sonic fans will have a blast and if you are lookng for a racing game with a twist look no further.
