Sonic either needs to be reworked from the ground up, or put to sleep. Every installment has us hoping for a return to glory, but each one further craps on the hedgehog's legacy. The redeeming qualities here are few and far between, and it's just plain not fun. If Sonic were a real person, his friends would've called for an intervention long ago. We're really worried about you, blue buddy. Get help.

You'll love
  • Three playable hedgehogs
  • Split-screen co-op and versus
  • Admirable object physics
You'll hate
  • The camera, control, collision...
  • Uninspired graphics and sound
  • Awkward, insulting side missions
