If you have an nostalgic or "He's cool" feelings toward Sonic, get the game. There are definitely frustrations with the game, but it's still Sonic. You still get to see Sonic run really fast. You get to play as Shadow, Silver, Amy, Tails, and others. Each character has a different ability, and some of those abilities are simply fun. Yes, it is true. The map area isn't done well. The load times are a killer!!! But the gameplay is descent enough to want to keep playing it. My 5 year old son likes the game. We play it together (taking turns). If you have a kid, this is a good game to play with him/her without worrying about what kind of bad stuff will come up that I don't want my kid seeing.
I think my favorite part of the game is the story line. While it's not compelling, it's interesting enough that I want to see what's going to happen next. It wasn't what I was initially expecting.
