Billy Hatcher Rocks My World

Best multiplayer ever. Period.

Better than Halo, better than Super Smash Bros, better than Bomberman Generations or any game you can possibly think of.

Never played the single player but as far as I'm concerned the only reason you'd ever want to is to unlock all the multiplayer levels.

My friends and I have been playing this game for nearly 4 years and have not gotten bored of it yet.

fun game

This is one of the most original games in ages. Play Billy Hatcher in a chicken suit rolling eggs through mazes and hatching eggs to free the Elder Chickens or morning will never return to the world. It sounds incredibly corny but it's amazingly cute and the music is very catchy.

One mode of play (described above) is Story Mode and there is also a multi-player battle mode. The only thing I wish it had was a cooperative multi-player mode and this is the only reason I did not give it 5-stars overall.

This is not a "button masher" and is good even for small children that don't read yet. If they can't read someone will need to help them out until they learn the controls but after that it's just non-stop fun!

This game is awsome!

This game is awesome! You wouldn't know 'cuz I'm billy's #1 fan! Sonic is in it, it's a two-player, and my sister and I play it all the time. Cute characters. This game is the best!

Of course there are some problems...

...But overall this game is fun! It's not for everyone, but not every game is. People who have no time for imaginitive fun, for example, may not enjoy this game.

I love the cartoon-ish expressions. I love the lilting, goofy music. The controls are... difficult, at times. But the originality and light-heartedness of the game make up for it. Oh, and the cameos of course. ;)

Sonicteam and SEGA have done it again.

I think the thing that attracted me the most was the creativity of the story. I mean, how many kids in chicken suits rolling eggs to save the world from evil crows have you seen lately?? SEGA and Sonicteam have been noted for this kind of creativity with Sonic. Before Sonic I had no clue what the heck an echidna was. And how many blue, loved by a pink hedgehog, high speed, save the world from an egg shaped man, hedgehogs have you seen?? Definately awesome and more for the puzzle fans then the fans of high-speed games like Sonic 2 and Sonic 1. How fast can you go rolling an egg twice you size?? But as always, for the Sonic fans enjoyment, they've put in some cameos ^^ Why don't you buy the game and find out where those cameos are? Go forth young or old game lover and buy this egg rolling disk of happiness ^^

Billy Hatcher Review by the SegaHead

Ah, a new Sonic Team game. After a year in the multiplatform business, gaming mastermind Yuji Naka of Sonic the Hedgehog fame decides to create a new game. Since Sonic Adventure 2 Battle a year ago was a success, why not? So he made an original game after 7 years, and I must say, he did a fine job. Sonic Team fans who don't own it, slap yourselves; this one's for you! Here's the review

This game's got a dang freaky story. The evil Dark Raven has turned the Chicken Elders into eggs, so the chicken god Menie-Funie calls Billy Hatcher to bring morning to the land. To hatch the elders you are given a rooster suit. And there's the story.

The game play is unique- using that rooster suit of yours, you get an egg, roll it around. Find some enemies, and then use the egg to beat them up. They drop fruit, and that's how they hatch and stuff. Hatch them- you could get a monster or an item. These things can seriously help you out on Billy's quest.

Graphics are pretty nice. They support a cartoony feel for younger gamers, and the characters show comical expressions on their faces to light up the face of a little kid. It's a nice touch to such a great game.

Sound is neat- it has simple guitar tunes, and then some odd little jingles. It's not a butt-rock collection, just a kid-friendly soundtrack.

Extras are basically if you collect enough chick coins you can unlock Sonic Team character eggs, like Sonic, Nights, the works. And if you hatch the right eggs, you can unlock GBA downloadable mini-games.

The bottom line is that Sonic Team made a good game when the last original game they made was 7 years ago. I'm just glad it made me SOO happy to own. I recommend it to platformer fans or Sonic Team fans or just some gamer that needs an original game.

I'll pay you £40 to keep the game away

A babyish game where some demented half chicken-guy runs over the weirdest things and then the loner finally turns the egg into a friend!
But then the friend goes. OWWWWW!
It isn't as crap as Super Mario Sunshine but what is, maybe Nintendo.

harder than it looks but worth every penny

Billy hatcher is a great game! The single player is fun and keeps you busy all the time. The objective is to bring morning back to morning land. You go around as this boy named billy hatcher and is asked to save morning land by the chicken sages. You accept and there you are saving morning land. There is about 7 places you have to bring morning back to each containing 5 objectives. The thing you use the most are....eggs! You use the eggs to kill enemies, jump and much more. Now enough about single player lets talk about the multiplayer. This is the BEST AND I MEAN THE BEST! Up to 4 players can compete in three exciting modes of play. Even though there's only 3 there still fun to even notice that you want more modes of play. There's hatch, time, and stock. In hatch the point is to hatch the most eggs that have animals in them. In time the hatcher has to try to kill the other hatchers and whoever gets the most kills wins. In stock its like kills only you have lives instead of getting kills. Billy Hatcher is a great game that deserves a try and far better. I hope billy hatcher is the greateast you ever play! Happy morning.
