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!

Absolute rubbish, avoid like the plague!
The Good
There is a lot to do as there is lots of characters... a few gamegear games extras are nice n retro - not good but nice and it's sonic and who doesn’t like sonic? WHO?!
The Bad
It may be sonic but that doesn’t mean its any good, the graphics are very bad, low standard dreamcast rubbish that sonic team hasn’t updated or taken any advantage of the gamecube's power in any way, shape or form. The story is horrendous and complicated and just doesn’t make any sense at all. This factor isn’t helped by the horrible HORRIBLE voice acting and music, in fact it’s so bad it’s funny, the way it all just makes no sense! The gameplay is evil, the action stages play like 3D bits of the original Sonics abet not very good 3D bits, as there too buggy and glitchy, also the thing that really annoys me is that the core sonic gameplay hasn’t changed; it’s still just a case of holding forward all the way through the levels. Some variety is attempted in the different characters but, its just rubbish!
The Bottom Line
DON’T buy it! You might as well as go out with £50 taped to your head with mug me written on it.

The Dreamcast Ratings Are Alot More Accurate
The Good
This game is great, why do people hate it? Me and my friend love this game. We looked at reviews for the Dreamcast version "excellent all over", Gamecube one "Terrible", we went by the Dreamcast reviews. They were right. Sonic was fun, Miles was fun, Knuckles is great many people hate it but I love treasure hunting, Amy is ok, Big was good and E-102 Gamma was good. Good graphics, sound and Gameplay. This has music from the band Crush 40, they make the game even better.
The Bad
The only bad thing is that there were a few glitches that I ran into, WHO CARES?
The Bottom Line
Good, if you hate this, you hate Sonic and that is like impossible. Great if you like Sonic Adventure 2 Battle and Sonic Heroes you will love this, you can run around 3 adventure fields that have many levels on them. Station Square, Mystic Ruins and Dr. Eggman's Egg Carrier.

Trivia
You may recognize the music in the third part of Windy Valley : it is in fact the music of the level Green Grove in Sonic 3D.
