User Rating: 9 | Sonic the Hedgehog PS3
nevermind the glitches, the game should not be argued on, i didnt go into a glitch where i die like in the silver boss battle, the games characters have their own unique time line and story, example: shadow's story is about the past and his story involves, finding a new villain: Mephiles the dark, shadow has to destroy him for whats good, sonics story takes place in the present, involves him trying his best to rescue the queen of soleanna and last but least, a new character named silver, he comes from the distance bad future, so his timeline is the future, his levels involve going after this monster made out of magma which was created in the accident that happened in the solaris project. but the consious side of iblis at that time is mephiles, mephiles has 3 fourms, 1: a ozze-like substance, he is refered at this phase as shadow's shadow, 2: in this fourm , he looks similar to shadow, but he has green eyes like sonic, blue shoes and on shadows quills, where is the red strip, his is light blue somewhat.anyways, the monster made out of magma is called iblis, when he is around, out of his prison, he prevents silver from restoring the world to a good future like in sonic cd. the 3 characters are needed in the final boss against solaris. the game also has alot of diffrent upgrades for each character. sonic unlike the others can buy these diffrent gems that allow him to do a custom move, ( gauge is at bottom right or if you dont know the directions are, here are directions: ↓ →) here are a list of the gems moves by colour, blue: speed dash,red: slow down time,sky blue: teleport,white: homing smash, green: tornado, purple: scale size, yellow: thunder shield from sonic 3. but to get these in the store, you have to pass a certail lvl, to get the blue,red,green on display, complete tails wave ocean, for the rest, complete kingdom valley. besides gems, sonic can also get skills, like the other 2 characters. one example is the skill that makes you bounce like with the water shield in sonic 3, silvers skills help him with his telekinesis, shadow can only buy chaos drives which is like a rage mode. there are also add ons for the game, for ps3 is only very hard missions, on xbox360, there is very hard, team attack amigos and picture pack. team attack amigos consists of playing a new mode with the friends of sonic,silver and shadow, and you have to go through areas of the level using these characters, very hard is what you think it is, the difficulty. i would give this game a rating a 9.0.
