Not only one of the first games on the Gamecube, but also one fo my favorites!
Controls: The controls are perfect and work with anybody who has a Gamecube. A to jump and Homing Attack and B to somersault. 10/10
Difficulty: I've played through this game a lot of times and it's become very easy. But if you are just starting out, you will have some trouble for maybe 5 minutes. 8.7/10
Story: The remake has left the story unchanged. Defeat Dr. Eggman and save the planet from becoming Eggmanland. 10/10
Graphics: The graphics are slightly better this time around. The mouth movements are slightly more human. 10/10
Overall, the game is a good game to have if you are just starting on the Gamecube. I would reccomend it to any Sonic Fan. 9.5/10. Nice job, SEGA. And thank you for allowing the Hedgehog to be on a Nintendo console.
