Undoubtedly one of the best Sonic games I've owned!! Get it ASAP, as you will have gotten one of the best games ever!!
Time Value: The time value in this game is great because there are so many combinations + the chaos emeralds ascend in difficulty to obtain + all the chao scattered throughout each zone that you much get. Also, the zone maps now feature 3 stages and even bonus minigame stages as well for you to play in. {5/5}
Music: This game has the best soundtrack out of all the Sonic video game's that I've owned!! They take a song as the first act, then in the 2nd act they do that same music at a faster pace, then in the 3rd act they do a remix of that music. The zone map has the act 1 music, but slightly different and slower. My favorite zones were zone 2, 3, and 6. I enjoyed some of the other zones music as well. The stages are well contructed, which only lenghthens the time that you spend in each stage to hear that intensely wonderful music. {5/5}
Graphics: The graphics in this game could be slightly better, but in my opinion they are fantastic, so {5/5}
Story: I won't spoil the story for you, but it is good. It even has a returning character from the previous game, but in a different form. {5/5}
Character Roster: The same characters as Sonic Advance 2.
Overall: {5/5}PERFECT!!! The game is absolutely, extraordinarily wonderful, and I regret selling the game as I transitioned interest into other video games, likely Pokemon. I would recommend that you get this game above any other Sonic handheld game unless you know otherwise.
