I am very sad!

I was so very excited when I finally got this game! I tore the package open, shoved it into my GBA, and flipped the switch. Soon after, I flipped the switch. This game is not very fast paced. Even though the old games were slower than the new ones, this game was very slow. It was also boring. All of the levels were the same exept different backgrounds! So I tried the other characters! All of the levels are the same for different characters, unlike SA1. Just different attacks! Trust me! I LOVE sonic. It is really fun! Especially Knuckles' Chaotix (Get It) But this is a major disappointment. Even the mini choa garden is all messed up! I am very very sad! Why don't the companies develop the games for handhelds themselves instead of turning it over to any old company (in this case THQ and Crash for GBA, it was given to Vicarious Visions) who can mess up the game. The only reason why crash the huge adventure isn't terrible is because VVisions Base the game off of Crash 2 and 3! Hey! Sega! Develop your own handheld games like you used to! And whoever the heck is developing crash! Traveler's Tales (Yeah! I was surprised too!) or Konami or Whatever! Make your own handheld crash! Sorry sonic! This is the one game of yours that I hate! (Although I haven't tried the handheld for NGPC) By the way, if you like Sonic Team, try the game they tell you about all over SA2! (You'll see!)

way too easy

i got this game about 2 weeks ago. just yesterday i beat the whole game! thats right the whole game. i didn't play for 12 hours just an hour a day. even the mini game Choas garden where you take care of a little blue thing. to feed or give it toys you have to go and get coins from it's retard games like memory, barney style and rock, paper, scissors variation. i sold the game today for 15 dollars to a 7 year old. i know 15 dollars, well that's about how much it's worth. Amy is a "hedge hog" but doesn't do the spin thing sonic does. instead she has a hammer which does about the same damage as sonics moves. Knukles glides through the air and climbs walls. tails flies but for thorty seconds. and sonic well yeah spin moves. i would give it -5 but stars don't go that low. DO NOT BUY IT OR TRADE FOR ANYTHING! IT SUCKS. 11/14/02

In every level, the characters just run through by themselves and you're only needed to fight Dr.Robotnik every other game. This game is no challenge, and is extremely repetitive. It is the most boring thing I have ever played.

WARNING: this game is only fun once

This game reminds me of sonic on the gamegear. the gameplay is nowhere near as good as it was on the genisis, and the levels have very little replay value. do not get this game unless you are ghey or wish to be dissapointed.

What's the big deal?

What's the big deal with this game? It's not fun at all. It's way too fast. I mean, Sonic Adventure 2: Battle was fast, but not like this. In this game, you can't even see where you're going. And there's no explanation for anything. I was expecting a cool action/platformer with a few story segments. Instead, I was dropped straight into the first level with no explanation, and there was no break-up between levels, boss battles, and worlds. I was just so confused. It moved so fast that my eyes hurt, and I didn't understand it. It was a big fat waste of money.

Does any one play the games before reviewing???

This game is too short, only 6 zones. There are 4 characters but the zones are exactly the same whatever the character. It took me one hour to beat with Sonic, and after 4 hours I had done it all.
Worse, the bonus stages are hidden in silly places (on Genesis you just had to find 50 rings and hit a respawn pole) and the bonus stages are extremely tedious. They look like sonic2 bonus stages, but you can only go straight.
Finally, the game play is like on Genesis except for the map design and the useless grind move (unfortunately, you can use it only 5 times in the whole game!!!). Oh, and the fire and water shields are missing. Most important, Sonic2 and 3 were much better because when knowing the zone you could run non-stop. In Sonic Advance there is always an ill-placed monster or spikes. And sometimes you're stopped by a wall just after speeding a loop (zone1).
The music is horrible.
Overall it's a 2D Sonic Game, so it's still good. But why could not they match the 10 year old Genesis games? Maybe they don't care, you'll buy it anyway.

Whoa...what happened?

When I first saw this game, I was really looking forward to playing it, me being the old-school Sonic fan that I am. Anyway, I picked it up after reading several things on it. And I must say, I was really disappointed in what the game had. In my opinion, it shouldn't qualify as a Sonic game. The two player mode is really lacking something. The music doesn't even compare to the awesome compositions in Sonic 1 and 2. Yes, I know they included a few songs and stuff from the first game, but that's about it.

The first thing I noticed was the character choices. If you play Sonic 2 or 3, you have a choice of playing as Sonic, Tails, or both. This game didn't have that, and that was a sorry thing to see. Amy Rose is one of my favorite characters, but I really think that the game wouldn't lack anything if she wasn't a character in the game. The levels and their titles weren't all that spectacular. Sure, they had a lot more boxes than the first games, and what really made me mad was the invincibility. I know they kept the same music, but the invincibility that's a Sonic trademark is the sparkles that surround the character. This game takes it from Sonic Adventure 2, and that made me upset, because it's just not...Sonic. The moves were hard to get used to, and (I'm sorry that I'm going too in-depth with this stuff, but....) all of the characters shouldn't have attacks, like in Sonic Adventure. Another thing that really disappointed me was that the levels were just too easy. There didn't seem to be enough badniks and there weren't enough turns and cool stuff like that.

I think that people who aren't die-hard Sonic fans would like this game, and it's pretty simple. But I warn those who love Sonic like I do-this game is not like traditional Sonic.

My reccomendation? Avoid this game, especially if you are a big Sonic fan.

THis game is really bad. im a big sonic game fan. The game could have been sooooooooo much better. You are better off getting any other games like legacy of goku or something like that. The minute i turned this game on i could tell that it was bad. I finally beat the game and i was so glad that the game was over. Its HORRIBLE in all

BOOOOO!

I thought this game was going to be an awesome game, but i turns out that its a short and easy game. I guess you can get it if you are going to get sonic adventure 2 Batter for the cube...but other then that its too short of a game.
