Sonic Adventure

 

Gameplay: Sonic's gameplay was very intresting and fun. He had moves like the homing attack and the spindash and it made it very fun and easy to get through the levels. Plus, he was very fast, the way Sonic should be when playing as him. He was a joy to play with. 10/10

 

Tails' gameplay was boring and slow. His Tornado levels were fun however because it fit him. Tails loves to build planes and is good at it and shooting stuff on the Tornado was very intresting. Racing Sonic is okay and it felt good to beat him without running faster than him. They should have him do more plane levels or make him use his tails more. 5/10

 

Knuckles' gameplay was very intresting because I got to climb on the walls. Find the pieces of the master emerald was okay but it going confusing for a while and it got a little boring. I like how you can dig. Maybe have him punch more. 6/10

 

Amy's gameplay was good. I thought the hammer moves were intresting and I was odd that I didn't curl up in a ball but at the same time, I liked it because I felt I was playing a different gameplay than Sonic's. She was slow and I think she should make her (and Tails) a little faster. The levels were easy and I liked it. 7/10

 

Big's fishing at first got me confused and disorianted because of the controls and Froggy was hard to catch. But I understood and I was getting the hang of it. I like these fishing levels. They were a fun game and it was different then “run to the goal and beat up robots”. It was a relaxing gameplay. One thing, they should have made him fight the Chaos 6 instead of just catching the frog but then it was different. 8/10

 

E-102 “y”'s gameplay was my second favorite in this game. I love the shooting and it made the levels fun and intresting. And I was surprised when a robot character was fast. They should make the shooting controls less slippery. More shooting like this in future games! 9/10

 

Story: The story was about chaos escaping from the master emerald and Dr Eggman wants to use him to destroy the Station Square and make Eggmanland like he always wants to. But then the monster ends up betraying the doctor and Sonic must stop him.

 

It was a very intresting story and some of the other character's stories in this were good to. Sonic goes to fight Dr Eggman. Tails wants to learn not to rely on Sonic too much (which he did a good job because in the other games, he can do good on his own). I felt proud along with him when I finish the last boss as him. Knuckles is looking for the master emerald (boring). Amy is helping a bird find her family and fights the robot at the end. To be honest, I hate this character but this game made me like her a little more because she had a heart. Even for an Eggman robot. Big is looking for froggy (boring story, intresting gameplay). E-102y starts as an Eggman robot and catches froggy but because of Amy and how friendly she was with the him, he deprograms and goes to get rid of the other E-series robots to save the birds. At the end, he ends up destoying himself. It was a sad story. 7/10

 

Visuals: the visuals were choppy than what I was used to. But it is a 1998 game. 6/10

 

Music: I love the music! Open your heart is my favorite Sonic song!! I also like the Egg carrier theme and Station Square and I also like Speed Highway. 9/10

 

I like this game. I can see why others like this game. It was a fun experience to play as other characters in a main Sonic game since my first Sonic game (Sonic the Hedgehog 2006). I prefer Sonic only playable but this game made playing as Sonic's friends more fun and intresting. Some levels were hard and I hated them like Sonic's sky deck and the final boss was okay. But I still like this game and I will tell people they should play this game if they ask about it.

 

Game: 7/10

[Jin.]

>Big has a higher score then Tails, Knuckles and Amy

inb4everyone

 

But hey, I don't mind. I love this game, and while I can see why people would hate some parts of it, I really don't have an issue with it.

Fishing? In a Sonic game? Sure I guess. Makes for a nice change of pace. It's short anyway.

 

unlike sonic adventure 2

Where I get mech levels shoved in my face

and they're so fucking long

every

single

fucking

time

 

 

 

Also Tails and Knuckles weren't that slow. Amy was pretty dull tho.

[Rey Skywalker-Ren]

i saw that not alot of people like the fishing parts. i thought they were easy its finding froggy thats hard. i think i will like Sonic Adventure 2

[Rey Skywalker-Ren]

 I wanted to do a review on the first Sonic game, Sonic 06, I played and here I am.

Gameplay: Sonic's gameplay, when I first played as Sonic, I really liked playing as him. I loved how fast he was and his homing attack and ring-dash. I really enjoyed playing as him. I also enjoyed that I could buy gems for his moves like the mach speeds. Mach speed sections, love them. I love the sense of speed I got when I run really fast and these stages fit Sonic. Now that I played other Sonic games, I still enjoy Sonic's gameplay in this game, like always he will always be my favorite. 10/10


 

• Tails was very boring. He was slow and should be made a little faster. And I didn't like the Ring Dummy attack. It was slippery. I always thought he should use his tails to attack. He played better in Sonic Adventure 2. 3/10
• Knuckles was good. When I first played as him, I enjoyed climbing on the walls. I think they should make more use of his punching like Sonic Adventure did. Like give him digging. I also didn't like that sometimes I would stick to a wall when I want to get off the wall. Overall he was enjoyed. 7/10

Shadow's gameplay, when I first played as him I thought he was also fun. I like his chaos control powers. He also has his own homing attack but he used chaos powers. I actually liked that it was different from Sonic's homing attack. He was also fast and I liked. He also had stages where you use cars and gliders and other weapons which I loved. When I played Shadow the Hedgehog, I loved it even more. I thought Shadow was fun. 10/10


 

• Rouge was also good to play as. The same as Knuckles but I had a better time getting off walls when I wanted to. The bombs were better than the dummy rung bombs. I like how I can stick bombs on places and they would explode. I think they should make her shoot bombs instead of dropping them. I liked overall. 8/10
• Omega was fun to play as. Because of him and E-102y, I like to play as robot characters. The shooting was alot of fun and the hovering was great. I do think that they should give in lock-ons to make the shooting better. But enjoyed. 9/10

Silver's gameplay, when I first played at him, I was confused but then I grew to love it. It was fun to use the phsycic powers and throw missles and boxes at the robots. I can also throw robots at other robots! I think they could make him a little faster, like Knuckles. He doesnt have to be as fast as Sonic because he doesn't need to run in his future but just a little faster. The puzzle was easy on the second try. I also liked that I can use my powers to move logs and the bosses as him were really fun. great gameplay overall. 9/10


 

• Blaze was fun to play as. I didn't like how she felt faster than Sonic. But I loved her fire powers and the double jump. I would slow her down a little bit. When I played Sonic Rush and Sonic Rush Adventure, I perfered her gameplay in this game then the other games. She played differently like Sonic except for the speed. I liked. 9/10
• Amy was okay to play as. I didn't understand why she had invisiablity powers when in the games before, she was just a little girl with a hammer. But it was fun to sneek up on the enemies and attack them. I didn't like the way she attacked with her hammer. I could only attack on the ground. When I played Sonic Adventure i think Amy should play like in Sonic Adventure but faster. The double jump I liked. It was okay overall. 5/10

Story: Sonic's story I thought was a cute story and it made me like him as my favorite character. His story is that he was rescuing the princess from Dr Eggman. I loved how Sonic can inspire other characters and the scenes between him and Elise were super cute. And to see a character take his advice, I liked alot. Nothing starts until you take action. Sonic in his story, he was fearless and he went buy his own rules. He had no special reason to help people other than it's the Sonic Law and he really cares. He would do whatever it takes to save the princess and I felt sad when he didn't get to the ship on time. I loved Sonic's story. 10/10

Shadow's story was intense and I liked the intense stories (that was why I was given this game when it came out). He was doing missions until it was reveiled that Shadow was the one who sealed Mephiles in the past. Shadow tries to look him in the game. I liked how Shadow said that he lived by his own rules (not the same way as Sonic) and even if the world was against him, he would still fight. The Mephiles boss fights were intresting. It was an intresting story but a little confusing. 9/10

Silver's story was sad. His future was ruined by the fire monster (can't pronunce name) and he tries to be the hero. He was impatiant and he was naive and it was cute to see such a character try to be the hero of his future and save everyone in his time. He was misguided but I can understand why. He wants to get rid of the fire monster so he might listen to anyone who says they know. But he realized that Sonic didn't ruin his future. He sets off to find the key to save the future. I almost cried when Blaze sealed the flames and she disappeared. I think that Silver saw Blaze was like a big sibling to him. (same with Amy). His story was sad and cute. 10/10

Final story: The final story when Mephiles becomes Solaris was okay. I didn't like when Sonic died and I almost cried when he did. But I liked how all of Sonic's friends helped find the chaos emeralds to rescue Sonic' I didn't mind the kiss. They went back and time and blew out the flame. Which meant Soloris doesn't exist and no one will worry about the flames. But I was sad that one, Sonic and Elise would never meet. Because I thought they were cute together. And 2, the whole game never happened. I enjoyed the adventure alot. 8/10

Visuals: the visuals were great on my Xbox360 it was clear graphics. I didn't like how everyone's head was big compared to the human's bodies. It looked weired when Elise would hug Sonic. His head was huuuugee! 8/10

Music: I enjoyed the music. I have the soundtrack because the music was wonderful. 10/10

Overall this was a good game and this game got me into the other Sonic games. There were some problems with gameplay of the friends but it was still a fun experiance and a great adventure. I will tell anyone who asks to play this game.

8/10     

[KrazyBean]

If you enjoy Sonic's gameplay so much in this game then you'll probably enjoy it a lot more in Sonic Adventure 2.

[Rey Skywalker-Ren]

I'm playing Sonic Adventure 2 now!

[Recolour]

Well, didn't expect anyone to enjoy the game this much. Well if you really enjoy the game, more power to you!

[Rey Skywalker-Ren]

thank you. I saw that not alot of people liked this game and I can understand why (I can't fully understand but). it was my fist Sonic game and the reason why I love Sonic the character

[Crash]

This is a weird one to like but opinions are not facts so glad to hear you enjoyed it!

[Rey Skywalker-Ren]

thank you alot!~

[The drunkard from space!]

I guess it's good to see someone liked this game. Glad you had fun with it.

[Rey Skywalker-Ren]

thank you alot! :]

[LATER BUDDY]

Heya there!

 

Just wanted to let you know that I merged your Sonic Adventure Review topic with this Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) topic since we can only have one of the same art-type topic in this part of the forum. So if you have any more reviews, feel free to post them all in here for everyone to see, :3! I also changed the topic title to something generalized, so feel free to change that to whatever too of course haha.

 

Lastly just wanted to say that even though it's your own topic, if you could avoid the little "thank you alot" posts since they're spammy. The "like" button under everyone's posts functions just like that kinda response so it helps keep things more tidy.

 

Thanks so much and awesome reviews!

[FourCartridge]

If I had something to well... review about you review, I would elaborate on some things. Why don't you like Blaze being faster than Sonic, despite speed mattering so much to you in gameplay? Why do you like the vehicle sections? How does the story affect your emotions? If you are an aspiring game critic, your audience needs to understand what you mean about what you say and why you think so. Saying "I liked it" a bunch of times does not really help things.

 

Hope it helps. =)

[Rey Skywalker-Ren]

Sonic is the fastest thing alive so other characters being faster than him is bad. The car sections, I liked them because they were different and it feels like a mech section. But i should put it in my review i think

[Jin.]

Sonic is the fastest thing alive so other characters being faster than him is bad.

 

Finally someone that agrees with me.

[Rey Skywalker-Ren]

Finally someone that agrees with me.

not alot of people agree?

[Jin.]

not alot of people agree?

 

Quite some people think everyone should be the same speed for some stupid reason, just because they could do so in previous games. They think the developers should just give Sonic something different. Which I think makes no sense whatsoever when he already has something special: SPEED.

oh. I think that if they say Sonic is the fastest thing alive, they should treat him that way. If he can run up to 1220 km then everyone else should be running at a max of 800 km. Shadow is one who can get away with it because he's the ultimate and it means he's powerful and fast and he's not faster than Sonic, he can match his speed.

Sonic the Hedgehog 4 (Episode 1) review

 

This was my first 2-d Sonic game I played.

Gameplay: Sonic's gameplay in this game was wonderful. He was really fast and has his spindash. He also had his homing attack from the 3-D games I played. I liked the homing attack because it felt like the chain attack from the 3D games and I liked the sense of speed when I bounced off a chain to get to another side. It added a fun challenge. The spindash was really fast and it was good to roll up those 90 degree slopes. The boosters also added a nice sense of speed. The only thing that annoyed me was that when I would roll up a slope, I would uncurl and bump into a badnik and loose my rings.

The stages were awesome as well. For example, Casino Night had you shooting out barrells and walking on playing cards which was cool. It felt like a casino than in Sonic 2 and alot more fun. Lost Labrynth was my favorite stage because of the cart levels (Ipod version of Act 2 was better but) and the walking on ball. It was a run and hard way to get across especially when you had to walk on them without falling. Egg Station was another favorite because you get to fight the bosses from the other levels in this level. Before fighting the final of course!

The special stages were very easy and getting Super Sonic was rewarding

The bosses in this game I saw when I played the earlier games were almost the game but in this game they were harder to deal with, which added a challenge from the 3-d games. Like when I played Sonic 1, I saw the first boss and was easy to beat. It was the one where Dr Eggman had his wrecking ball machine. In Sonic 4, he actually made it to that it could crush you by flipping the wreaking ball. In Sonic 2, the final boss was the Death Egg. In Sonic 4 they made that boss alot tougher... and really tough! The robot actually trips and you have to move and you can use your homing attack to shoot rockets at it. Good gameplay all and all. 9/10

Story: The story is simple. Sonic is rescuing animals from Dr Eggman. He makes then into badniks. Sonic speeds through zones to stop the Dr and his plots. Very simple and good story to work with. 10/10

Visuals: the visuals were great! for a 2D game it was clear and it had wonderful pictures. 10/10

Music: the only song I didn't like was Splash Hill Zone Act 1. It made my ears bleed because of the sound but the other sountracks, I loved. My favorites were Lost Labrynth Act 2, Mad Gear Zone (all acts), Casino Night (act 3), Egg Station, Final Boss and my favorite song of them all, the Super Sonic theme (console). This game had the best Super Sonic theme I have heard. 9/10

All and all, this game was enjoyable and it got me into trying the other 2-D Sonic games. I have played some others but they didn't compare to the fun and challenge this game had. While learning about the classics, I think this game is good for classic and modern fans alike. I will tell anyone who asks to play this game.

9/10

(Please help me inprove my reviews)

[FourCartridge]

Well, you are improving on expanding on what you think about stuff in the game, but you might still need to go a bit into more detail. Not every review has to a long and boring essay, but people often read review to see what the high and lows of a game are like in a bit more detail.

 

Also, You might do with comparing thing in Sonic 4 to other games in the series, or heck, even non-sonic games like Mario, Final Fantasy, and the like. helps expand your views on the game to folks who read them. Scores are only something used to shorten reviews and help with the review itself. I would try not putting scores in your next review and see how it matches up with your views on a game. 

[Rey Skywalker-Ren]

The scores help to give my opinion////

[Dizcrybe]

Someone who isn't me likes Sonic 4 Episode 1? What witchcraft is this?

[Rey Skywalker-Ren]

Yay for Sonic 4. I think it is the best 2-D Sonic game out there. I think

[Rey Skywalker-Ren]

*I asked for help from  FourCartridge to sum the story so the sum of the story is not my own words. The reaction is my own words and everything else in this reveiw is my own words

Gameplay: Sonic and Shadow. Sonic's gameplay was very fun. He had moves like the homing attack and the spindash and it made it very fun and easy toget through the levels. Plus, he was very fast, the way Sonic should be when playing as him. He also had a move called the light ring dash and it worked better in this game. I also love the bounce attack. It help me get to high places and bouncing on the robots was fun. Shadow got boring because he played the same like Sonic with no special moves or nothing to do with his chaos powers. I wish they made more use of the mystic melody where he teleports. If they make use of his chaos powers and powerups, he would be really fun to play as. Sonic 10/10, Shadow 4/10

Tails and Eggman. Tails gameplay is way better in this game and was fun! The shooting was more like E-102y in Sonic Adventure but had different powerups. You also had more powerful shooting for shooting those metal boxes and you can lock on to robots to get bonuses. The shooting was a smooth and fun gameplay that fit Tails and it made me love him as a character. Dr Eggman had the same fun gameplay like Tails, except for one thing, he had powerup that made the egg walker resistant to attacks longer. So it made the gameplay a lot better. Also, I loved playing as Dr Eggman, the bad guy! Tails 9/10, Eggman 10/10

Knuckles and Rouge. Knuckles was fun to play as. The treasure hunting was good but it took a long time and it became very diffcult. But he had his powerups such as digging and iron, it made it enjoyable. The only thing is that I with they made more use of the airnecklece. It was such an awesome powerup because Knuckles can hold his breath for as long as you stayed under water. But it was only needed in the last stage. I would make him punch more and give him more attack moves. Rouge was also fun like Knuckles. But she didnt have many powers like Knuckles. She has her kicking but I think they would use that more like give her the tornado kick she had in other media. Knuckles 6/10, Rouge 5/10

Story: Sonic is sent to jail after being mistaken for a black hedgehog named Shadow and is sent to Prison Island, a top-security military prison. Tails stages a rescue, but not before learning that Dr. Eggman has hatched another scheme, this time with backup. Dr Eggman soon thereafter announces to the world that he has a superweapon ready to fire at earth. With Earth in panic, it's up to Sonic & pals to stop the mad plot, and this time the stakes are higher than before.

Meanwhile, Dr. Eggman learns that his grandfather had developed a super life-form and raids a military base to get his hands on it. When freed the black hedgehog Shadow grants Eggman one wish; World Domination. Little does Eggman know Shadow has his own stakes in his plot, and soon a bat-girl called Rouge offers assistance, also with her own agenda.

The hero story was an exciting story but it was a little hard to follow and it was hard to sum up on my own. It took me a while to know that Sonic was being mistaken for Shadow but with that, it made for intresting story. I was also wondering how the master emerald was in the story but at the end, I can understand. I never got to understand why Dr Eggman want the master emerald. But Sonic lead the way and he saved the day he always has. 7/10

The dark story was intresting. It made somethings in the hero story make sense. I thought it was cool when Shadow showed Dr Eggman his power and wanted to grant him his wish. I understood why Shadow was free. I also understood that Shadow has his own plan to destroy the world. It was very sad when he died to save the world. For a flat character, he was okay in this game. As for Rouge, she is a very cute character but I didnt see any indication that she was a government spy, just when Shadow says it. It was a good story. 8/10

Music: the music was good KNUCKLES! He had the best stage songs and other characters do to. I like boss themes and White Jungle, Eggman, Radical Highway, Hidden base. Live and Learn I didnt like. City Escape was okay. Final Rush, Metal Harbor, Pyramid Cave I didnt like 7/10

Visuals: the visuals were very choppy, its an old game but I didnt really like the visuals. Sometimes also when I play as Rouge and stand, her boobs move when I am not moving. 3/10

All and all this game was okay. I love to play as Sonic always and Tails was awesome and hes my second favorite character. Knuckles was okay and Rouge is too cute but they should focus on her kick attacks and the tornado thing she does in the media (Sonic X). Playing as the bad guy was fun and the story was good. The final boss was okay but it was hard because I got set back when I bumped into something making it harder to move away. It was good game overall.

Game: 6/10
