This game is GREAT! i'd give it 5 out of 5 stars but...
I loved the dreamcast verion!
and i don't really see any "directors cut" about this game, everything seems the same...

so if you still have a sega dreamcast, get this game for that instead because it's the origanal, and the game editor took those extra scenes ((if any extra scenes)) out of the game for a reason.

so everybody is gonna click on "no" for "did this reveiw help you?
but hey, at least i got my point out.

One of the worst games ever

I am definitely a sonic fan, but i have to say this is a horrible game. The controls are absolutely horrible, where the game kills you needlessly when it blows you around the stages. Also, it gets very repetitive and boring, it's basically the same stages over and over again with different people. I would advise not getting this. For young people, it would just not be fun and the same ole thing. For older people, you will just be dissappointed with the poor controls and handling.

Best Game Ever?

This is one of the very best games EVER to exist. I own it on Dreamcast, and i never get tired of it. There are certain games that have tough competition such as Super Smash Bros Melee, The Legend of Zelda the Wind Waker, and Metroid Prime, but this game is TIGHT, you will love it. It has a perfect level of challenge, action, and speed. You will never EVER get frustrated with this game (Unless of course you aim for all the emblems- SUPER HARD), and the graphics are awesome. It would be worth buying a gamecube just to RENT this game. You will love it.

Better than Sonic Adventure 2.

This game premiered on Dreamcast, but has enough new features to make it worth buying. In short, the game is better than SONIC ADVENTURE 2, but not the Gamecube's best platformer.

There are only 6 playable characters (versus SONIC 2's 12), but each one feels more polished. Sonic levels are still the most fun, but much more of the other levels are fun, too. The game plays a lot like SONIC ADVENTURE 2, so you will know what to expect. Also, the camera is a lot better here.

As you play through, there are neat things to unlock. There are 50 new minigame challenges that take place in the game levels, which are definetely fun to play through. You will also unlock other Sonic games that were on Sega's GAME GEAR. Also, you can link up to the Game Boy Advnce, just like you could in SONIC ADVENTURE 2. If you owned this game on Dreamcast and liked it, there is enough improvement here to buy it again, not to mention a better controller.

However, this is not the best platformer on Gamecube....

Overall, this is a fun game, and you should buy it, but there are better things on Gamecube to play first.

What this really boils down to is a mediocre game wrapped up in a nice package. The action stages in this game needed a lot more work than they received. The biggest problem is the way that walls tend to stop you if you touch them. But even bigger than that is the way you never really do anything in the game. There's no difficult platforming or challenging enemies. It's all just one big giant sprint from point A to point B. And that's only when you're taking an active role in the game, which seems to be about half the time.

So Sonic didn't really turn out all that well in 3D. So what? For some weird reason I can't explain, I'm glad I bought this game. Maybe it's because, in this simple videogame world, I'm just glad I can help Tails believe in himself. Maybe it's because, between the horrible facial animation and the overdone voice work, I see a web of friendships that I wish I could have. Who knows? Playing this game gave me a warm sense of familiarity that I don't find very often.

At any rate, the game does have its high points. Most people bash SA's music, but I think it was very well-done. The song lyrics are about as cheesy as Engrish can get, but Jun Senoue deserves some recognition for the polish he put on the game's music. The BGM for the Casino and the Red Rock areas in particular is simply fantastic. Props, also, to the East 4th Horns.

And while it was a kind gesture to include the Game Gear Games, you'll either have to cheat, or spend many tedious hours, to unlock the good ones. I'll cheat.

I can't really recommend this game, but on the other hand, I can't say it deserves all the negative treatment either. Perhaps the only people that really should pick it up are the ones that made that decision a long time ago.

Don't believe reviewers

For some odd reason reviewers have difficulty with this game. I don't know why, it's lush visuals and pure speed combine with chao caretaking and minigames to produce something so awesome your mama will be blown away. Sonic adventure on the dreamcast was good enough to get a perfect review, and now an enhanced one gets a good review. BUY THIS GAME IMMEDIATELY, BEST GAME ON THE CUBE.

Best sonic Game yet. better than sonic adventure 2.

Sonic went 3-d some years back, but he was very hard to contoll! now, sonic is back with all his friends in this unexpectadly good game.

PLOT:::
Sonic and friends battle it out to stop evil Dr. Robonic from getting all 7 chaos emeralds and feeding them to his watery like pat Chaos.

you get to play as 6 characters from the sonic series introducing BIG the Cat.

each character overlaps the plot. but in doing so, you learn more and more things you couldn't learn from one character alone.

also, this game introduses the Chao a cute little creature that can turn into animals and race. their fun to play with when the game gets frustrating. ((note that the Chao garden is much better in Sonic Adventure 2))

the music in this game i phenominal! i usually hate video game music, but this game has some rock, and lots of vocal parts.

to finish up this reveiw, Sonic Adventure is a must buy for any fan of the games or the newer show Sonic X.

Director's Cut?

There's many ways that Sonic's 3D games could be improved, unfortunately, Sega missed every one of them with this sad excuse for a quick-cash-game. Director's what? "DX" is basically exactly the same as "Sonic Adventure" for Dreamcast, but (as the promotional materials rave) "with extra features".

I'm sorry, but "classic" Game Gear Sonic games and some more of those insanely difficult "beat the level in 2 minutes" missions isn't anything worth adding. Am I the only one that realizes that Game Gear had NO CLASSICS? That's why it failed!

I can understand how GameCube owners who haven't played the original "SA" would like this, but seriously, when you already own the game and have beat it, why buy it again for some stupid features, unnecessary missions, and more of that Chao garbage? Graphical improvements? No. From the screenshots I've seen, it has only one graphical improvement: the toes of Sonic's shoes are now rounded. Oh, wow...
