Summary

Excellent way to experience the classic Sonic Gang.

The Good

SAdx allows players to follow the same story through six different perspectives and continue adventuring through Mission and Trial Modes. Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles are reunited against Robotnik, AKA Eggman, along with the perky Amy and two new friends, Big the Cat and E-102 Gamma.

The Bad

Aside from difficult to control camera angles and brief storylines with Big and Gamma, the game leaves little to be desired. However, the storylines of each of the six characters overlap, leaving questions as to what the real story is. Each character tells his/her own version of the story, as if three little kids were arguing over who broke the kitchen window. Did Tails defeat Eggman's first contraption, or did Knuckles? Did Sonic win or lose the fistfight with Knuckles, or did Tails perform the fight all along? We just can't tell who's got the true angle, although we can all just assume that Sonic is the real hero.

The Bottom Line

SAdx is yet another great game featuring everybody's favorite super-sonic blue hedgehog, Sonic. And, though there is always room for improvement, Sonic Adventure DX has exceeded my own personal expectations and gone past the limit to prove once again that Sonic is indeed the fastest and greatest Hedgehog Hero of them all!
