There are good reasons this game never really took off, here are 3.
1)The gameplay was severly lacking in almost all aspects. The power speed fly switch up was poorly designed, and they do the same thing every time. The levels were done very bad too. You also don't get as much freedom as in previous sonic games. Its pretty much there way or shut off the system and get a life way.

2)O thats soooo awsome 4 different sonic teams! WRONG! There may be 4 different teams, but they all do the same levels, so what's the point? Same levels same skills BORING!

3)No Choas! those little guys were awsome. Im going to miss um.

So all in all if you buy this game you can still sell it back on amazon. O yeah the sound and music was bad to, I can still hear that stupid robot chanting...

This game would be so much more fun if it was not so fast paced. The game basically does everything for you unless you have to knock through a wall. The levels don't get harder or anything, it's not like Mario where you can just keep going until you win, you choose from four different tracks and that's all your options. I wouldn't get this game.

This game sucks a lot.

I thought this was going to be Mario 64-like game with free movement, but it turned out to be almost a racing game. You have 3D movement, but you can only move one direction on the track and your score is based on your speed, tokens, and level-ups gained.
You can use one of four teams, each of which has three characters that you can switch to become leader during play. The combined moves are kind of cool and allow you to use the three styles (speed, power, and fly) to fit the situation best, but most of the enemies are so easy, there is no point unless you have to.
If you like racing games combined with some fighting, you will like this. Unfortunately, I don't.

Did not like it, too complicated

Bought this game to play with my 8 year old son. It was hard to use the controls, difficult to look around and move the characters. We didn't understand it at all, too many things to remember. We do not recommend buying this game.

Promising, yet a mess.

This is one of Sonic's worst games. Surely, it was the worst one on the Nintendo GameCube. To say that it was disgraceful and glitchy is the serious understatement of the week.

The character's charms and voice acting was there, but the soul wasn't. The levels were nice and huge as promised but there were many glitches and the story left so much to be desired. I think we loved this game for 2 weeks and then it hit us: THIS GAME IS SERIOUSLY STUPID.

I don't know what this game is like for the other two platforms, but on Xbox, it's a tad confusing. The game gets away with this by giving you control of three characters at once and dividing the characters up into four different teams--Team Sonic, Team Dark, Team Rose, and Team Chaotix. Each team member has his or her own strengths, and your abilities as a team change depending on which character you have set as the team leader. The inclusion of the four different teams, however, seems a bit pointless since the game is virtually identical for all four of the teams, save for some different story elements in between levels. To be blunt, no one cares about these peripheral characters that Sonic Team seems hell-bent on pushing on gamers. People play Sonic games to play as Sonic the Hedgehog.
Unfortunately, the game suffers from a problematic, finicky camera, occasionally spastic controls, and some bad clipping. The level designs are pretty straightforward, though you'll occasionally find portions that aren't entirely intuitive. Moreover, it's likely that you'll find yourself plummeting into a bottomless nothing without any idea of what you did wrong more than once. This is a rental, for sure.

Sonic Heroes may disappoint some people. It's filled with glitches on all three platforms. The camera is still bad like in the previous sonic games. It's still a solid game though. The only real problem I had with it was the annoying character voices. Tails and Charmy the Bee got on my nerves. You'll hear alot of lines repeated over and over too. The gameplay is alot more fun than Sonic Adventure 2. It's worth a rental, or if your a big Sonic fan you'll like it.

Half and half...

You know, the story was great, the battles and adventure was great... but I didn't really like the graphics. It's either the resolution of my t.v. (which i doubt) or the poor work the makers of Sonic Heroes have done. It's almost like they rushed to get this game into stores... But i do recommend it for gamers who enjoy battles and team work.

THIS RULES YOU HEAR ME!
