Extreme Gamer | Sonic Adventure HD review

'Big the Cat,' of all the ridiculous Sonic characters — actually, of all ridiculous gaming characters ever, period — can reclaim the prize he originally took in 1999, for being most pointless additional character and or gametype ever to be featured in a game. The Inclusion of 'Big the Cat' in Sonic Adventure, would be like including a platforming mini-game in 'Gran Turismo 5.' He is completely out of place and only serves to slow down the pacing of Sonic Adventure to a literal standstill. Or a sit-still if you prefer, because Big doesn’t even have the decency to stand up while he is fishing.
