"After a slew of disappointing and downright bad games, Sega's speedy hedgehog has finally returned in a game worthy of the Sonic legacy."
Gamespot said this in their review for Sonic and the Secret Rings. 7.6 isn't the great score for sonic we've all been hoping for, but this is definitely (according to gamespot) the best 3D sonic game to date (in many years). I can't wait to try it out, seriously a great series that needs a good 3D games.  Maybe we will soon see him in the AAA's again someday.
