Sonic Adventure

The Good
The game is in fact okay for the Dreamcast but the GameCube version is much better! Who needs a Dreamcast these days? I found it a little good at the beginning of Sonic's story but I couldn't do it very well... But after one week or so I found so easy!

The Bad
It's got an interesting storyline. But the graphics are rubbish! Like, I said the GameCube version is a LOT better!

The Bottom Line
The storyline is cool. But the only good story is Sonic well that's my words. I discovered Tails, Knuckles, and Amy's adventures so easy. Gamma's story is okay but not as good. Big's story is really rock solid!.

The long storyline goes on in Sonic Adventure 2, then throughout Sonic Heroes.

The Good
The graphics are great, and when the game is fast, it's FAST. The controls aren't excellent, but they do their thing. The first three levels are excellent in every way, and that's something not even Tails can stop (argh how I hate that irritating little thing).

The Bad
At first I liked the thought of some adventuring with Sonic, but that was not for long, because when I had started playing I realized that all I really wanted was to run, and to run fast. Sure, there are lots of opportunities for running like a maniac, but there are also lots of irritating parts where you just walk around town looking for the next level, and that isn't so inspiring. Oh, and the music and voice acting is terrible (although the music is better than in Sonic Adventure 2), bordering on unspeakably evil and bad.

The Bottom Line
If you have a Dreamcast and feel the need for a quick injection of great graphics and furious speed, then get Sonic Adventure, but you might wanna look for it in the bargain bins. The tedious adventuring parts and the horrible music and voice acting lower the score somewhat, but the game's worth its money, if just for the first three levels.

The Good
Since the very first Sonic the Hedgehog in 1991 I was completely hooked on the character. This game brings a whole new dimension to him. What I like about the game is it is more fast paced that the previous, the environments are incredible, they keep all of the robots from previous games and the final boss was actually a challenge to defeat, which, nowadays, is quite rare in final bosses. The characters of the 3D game are successfully taken from the original 2D environment, the new characters, including Big, are I think a huge success and, most importantly, they remain true to the spirit of the game.

The Bad
What's bad about this game...hm...I can't think of anything, even though many critics probably have some things to pick at.

The Bottom Line
If I still had my Dreamcast, Sonic Adventure would be the most used game on it. This game is an absolute must-have if you're a fans and a must-try if you're not.
