It is the worstist game because you cant get itams. Because you have to use three people at a time and because you have to trow one of your teams and hit more than one time on the emenies. (...)

I've had this game since the day it came out. It was extremely hyped by Sega, and it was made to look like the absolute best Sonic game ever. Okay, that's all find and dandy...except when you see that it is not the best Sonic game ever.
Story: Well, for the most part, the story is pretty ridiculous. I wonder what they were thinking when they thought of Eggman (or metal sonic, who whoever it was) actually sending Sonic a letter saying he would take action in 3 days. And, as completely ridiculous as the story is, it is simply not told very well. You pretty much have to read the plot off wikipedia or some sonic fan site to have any idea what is going on in this game. The Sonic Team is probably the only team that has anything to with the central storyline. The other teams are doing little side stories, that the game could've totally gone on without. In my eyes, they're only there to keep the game from being incredibly short. The ending, by the way, is totally ridiculous, and it's something I'd never really expect Sonic, or anyone with any sense, would do.
(by the way, if you think I've just said the word "ridiculous" too many times, I have no excuse other than that "ridiculous" is pretty much the definition of anything that happens in this game story-wise)
Gameplay: Now, we have a pretty dumb storyline, but what about actually playing the game? It can be fun, in some places. There are definitely certain levels that I just enjoy playing. But there are others that I just quit on and don't even bother with. Playing as 3 characters at the same time was a good idea, but when I actually experienced it, I couldn't help but miss playing as one character only, so I can get what I want without having to deal with the rest. It's not a terrible system, but I would really rather playing as Sonic/Tails/Knuckles alone. Maybe that way, I wouldn't have to deal with all three of them spewing out idiotic one-liners over and over and over again.
The pinball levels are the absolute worst things I've had to sit through in a Sonic game. They were just frustrating, boring, and not fun at all. It was fun in Sonic Spinball and Sonic Adventure, but here it's just dreadful.
Overall, Sonic Heroes is inferior to almost every 3-D Sonic game released before. A ridiculous story which was terribly executed, 3 other teams which I view as total wastes, an alright team system, terrible dialogue, and a game that just makes me miss playing the Adventure series, or almost every other Sonic game. The only things it improves on from previous 3-D Sonic games is the homing attack, and the speed dash.

I have been a giddy anxious kid all bout Sonic for 10 years. Im 12 now, and i really want this game so bad! Team Sonic, is Sonic, Knux, and Tails (which i HATE), Team dark, is Shadow (just a robotic clone of Shadow) E-Omega (NOT Gamma) and Rouge. Team rose is Amy, Cream, and Big, and Team chaotix, is Charmy Bee, Vector the crocidile, and Espio the chamaeleon.
Pros-
4 teams
3 chars in each
Impressive Graphx
Nice muzik
NO Chao! :D!!!!!
Cons-
the Team Blast move is very mediocre
unjustly unjust

The game in graphics is very good but the problem is that it is for all consoles and them dire because for example series ESPN has been always of PS2, Xbox and because not to remove one for gamecube since they did with Sonic this it seems very unjust to me to nintendo have deceived it had cleared him another star but it is sufficient.

I have played a demo of this game and it was very good. In Sonic Heroes, you're on a journey to stop Dr. Eggman. If he's trying to dodge Knuckle's punches, or trying to elude Tail's thunder shoot, he'll have plenty to deal with. Choose from 4 different teams to play with. Each character has their own attacks. When the red guy is the leader, you can perfrom multiple attacks by pressing the B button at the right times. Control all 3 characters at once for a whole new experience. I think Sonic Heroes will be the best Sonic game ever created. It's going to be great.
Great

This game has got to be the best of the Sonic Games out there availible for the NGC! First Sonic Adventure2, then Sonic DX, a few mega collections, and now, Sonic Heroes!
Its slightly complicated at first, so be sure to try the tutorial. There are four teams, one eggman.. and the return of.. well Ill let you see. ;)
Ive already beaten the game, and only got it about week ago. It can work up excitement, and will keep you busy for hours. You want a good sonic game? You got it!!
