Well, it's finally here, another Sonic game that will disappoint and/or frustrate us all. In the game, you control 1 of 4 teams, each with 3 characters that do best in a certain field (Speed, Strength, and Flight). This game offers HUGE levels with lots of our favorite strips of runway that will occasionally turn upside down and make a nice loop or two. Another feature is the rails you can grind on, which is just like running down the runways, but can be a bit more challenging. What truly will disappoint players is the fact that you must switch from character to proceed on, which means, you must stop all the fast pace action of the run just so you can destroy a giant brick or two. The main reason people want this game is to run at unmatched speeds as Sonic, not glide over orange robots. However, it is enjoyable to smash through robots, that get stronger and faster as the game progresses. On a very bad note, you'll find that completing the game is not as easy as you may think. Further down the road in the game, levels become incresingly harder and more frustrating with more than enough chances to fall off the edge, most of which will happen accidently when you slide against the ground when stopping or bashing too much and go off, to drive you off the edge. With the 4 different teams (Rose, Sonic, Dark, Chaotix {in order of difficulty}) the game will seem to never end, and it does get dull as each team has basically the same stages just more or less enemies or harder obstacles. However, not to alarm you to stay from this game, this is a fun game once you get a hold of the character switching method. It's a good challenge, even though it doesn't know when to stop at times, and offers alot of fast paced action and excitement with tons of hours of gameplay (total with all teams). I have beaten all but Chaotix's game and look forward to the final stages, as will you once you get this game.
