Nice little platformer...
Gameplay 8/10
Actually, it was classic Sonic action, with a small touch of Sonic Adventure during the boss battles. I also admit, it's really fast, and you'll be running into enemies from time to time, but I've gotten used to this by now. Also, the Blaze the cat story is hard. But let's not forget how challenging Knuckles' story was back in the game Sonic and Knuckles. You couldn't even defeat the boss from Zone 6 Act 1 if I remember, because he has the shortest jump. So when I start hearing a bunch of punks, reviewing this Sonic game as too hard for Blaze's storyline, I don't wanna hear it! Oh, yeah I also didn't like that boost system...Using spin dash uses energy, guess Sonic Team wanted to give people more of a challenge...And that's another thing. I'm sick and tired of hearing people complain about how Sonic games are too easy (Classic Genesis titles) then when they release a challenging one, people give it low ratings, complaining that it's too hard, I mean c'mon!!!
Graphics 10/10
Actually the graphics were pretty good. They were along the lines of New Super Mario Bros. and the backgrounds were lush and colorful.
Sound 9/10
Great music...all that stuff
Replay Value 7/10
Alright, unless you want the secret ending, go crazy and collect those emeralds for that extra zone. Go ahead and unlock everything. Oh, and if you're a diehard Sonic fan, go crazy and play it again.
Tilt: 9/10
Not bad, I would say
Final Verdict: Go buy it
I really don't care. It's a good Sonic game, Sonic and Knuckles style, I think it could've used at least an extra character or two, but it's still okay. Have fun!
Good: Challenging gameplay in Blaze's storyline. Recommended to Sonic fans who didn't find a worthy challenge with previous titles...good ol' fashioned Sonic gameplay.
Bad: You're running blind (Meaning you'll run into enemies from time to time) Could've been a bit longer...
