Sonic the Hedgehog (Xbox 360, 2006)

As the years go by, Sonic continues to lose his edge in the gaming world. Sure he's still a classic. Yeah the graphics are always decent. It does feel fast, really fast, probably too fast. Collecting items has never really felt as important as it does in other games because you move so fast. This 360 title is no exception. Things move fast and that's great but it feels like the same game over and over. I love the character though and the story is better this time around with great cinematics but the gameplay feels just too done already. And the controls are frustrating because the same buttons are used to perform different tricks and if Sonic ever does the wrong trick you will probably end up falling to your death because of the level design. Combat is improved and attacking enemies is a ton easier than previous games. Fans will probably want this one regardless. I can't recommend buying. 3.5/5
