Plus XP: Sonic Adventure 2 HD Review

RandomMan5000 from Plus XP writes "I will start off by being honest about something. Even through I am a Sonic fan, I haven’t played a Sonic game in the last few years. I have wanted to but for reasons beyond my control have never really had a chance to, so I was really excited to give this game a go. I wanted to see how much the game has improved and how the latest graphics and gameplay has been used to improve the Sonic universe. The game was originally created and released on the Sega Dreamcast, but since the consoles unfortunate demise this is one of the few titles that has resurfaced and looks impressive."

For someone like me that started playing games at late 90s it was heartbreaking to see what happened to SEGA. Good to hear this because how things were going in the last years for them. I remember the time when they closed a lot of arcades in Japan. Or even when Microsoft almost bought them several years ago.

I have a feeling the sales will drop a ton the next week since everyone figured out it's barebones and a technical mess. Hype and name brand can only get you so far.

I wanted to like this game but they did everything possible to disappoint. Maybe they can use this as a stepping stone for a future title, but so far this isn't it.

wheres sonic 06 lol. I know im in the minority but if you can look past all the glitches I actually liked the game.

I have played the game more than I'm willing to admit. Even beat all the DLC as well, and nearly S ranked everything including the DLC.

The game had good graphics for the time, and a fantastic soundtrack. If only it had an extra year of development it could have been a decent game. People keep harping on the kiss at the end of the game as if its a big deal. It really isn't (people kiss their cats and dogs all the time, and no one freaks out about that).

They try extra hard to hate on the game, and while it does have a multitude of unacceptable flaws and had serious development issues (Yuji Naka quit SEGA early on during the project which definitely caused some internal struggles at Sonic Team), there are some positive aspects about the game that people don't give it credit for.

Hmmm, this is kinda cheating, but I would rate Sonic 3 & Knuckles as #1, rather than having the two games separately occupy #2 and #3.

That was literally the only game I played for YEARS.
