I like (or at least try to like) the Sonic series. The visuals are highly polished and nice to look at. The storyline and cut scenes are once again cheesy with uneven voice acting (sometimes good, sometime horribly forced). The tutorials are adequate since there are alot of moves to memorize. It's best to keep the instruction booklet handy. The tutorials for the 'unlocked' moves need to be manually accessed from the menu; it won't automatically take you there when you earn them. The biggest problem I have with this game is the controls and camera angle. Unlike Sonic Adventure and other 3D Sonic games, the camera angle is fixed with no way of moving it. It makes some jumps rather difficult. Sonic's round shadow helps some of the time, but when you're jumping in a diagonal direction, it's hit or miss. Some of the more complicated jumps in the later levels can be especially frustating. If you don't time it to the nanosecond, you will fall into an abyss or drown. If you don't want to use one of your TWO spare lives, your only option is a level restart. Alot of other reviews I read mentioned an uneven balance between Sonic and 'warehog.' That may be true, but the cool power-ups and fighting capabilities of warehog makes it only a small issue in my opinion. The other reviews also mentions that warehog is painfully slow. Warehog is able to continuously run. Not as fast as Sonic, but he's still fairly swift. The levels are not as polished as previous games. Some are good (the snow sledding level is especially fun), others seem to be designed in a random or disorganized way. Luckily, there is a GTA-style map that helps you out some. It's especially helpful to identify hidden areas. All-in-all, if you like the Sonic series, I would recommend this game. Just beware of the occasional bad controls in the later levels, but that's to be expected in just about any 3D Sonic game.Read full review
I bought this for my grandson for Christmas. He loves it. If there were any problems with it, he would surely let me know. Although the product is used, it is still in excellent condition and works fine.

The game is fun and it's all about the adventure! Sonic has to restore the power of the seven chaos emeralds while transitioning between day and night stages. It's exciting!

I bought this at my son's request. The package arrived on time and it great shape. The disc is unscratched, the booklet intact not wrinkled. Jacket and sleeve as pictured. It loads perfectly.

Easy game for my kids to play, bought it because I got a good price on it. I would recommend this game to parents that have small kids and that love Sonic. They won't have a hard time understanding how to play it. There are a lot of great games that can be found on Ebay, most of them easy for kids to play. This is a top pick for me.
