A port of the Dreamcast game: Sonic Adventure. This game is really great in many places. Sometimes it's really frustrating (getting all the emblems is going to be a nightmare, and mission mode is no walk in Station Square). There are glitches, which apparently, Nintendo didn't really get out. However, they added not only the Mission mode to continue playing, but they added all the Game Gear Sonic games to it (At least I think so, seems like it, including the two Tails games).
THE STORY:
Sonic was just enjoying his in Station Square when he sees the police racing over. Sonic follows, and finds out a monster, Chaos 0, is attacking. Sonic defeats him, but Chaos 0 revived himself, and Eggman appears, yelling how Chaos is the god of destruction.. So it is up to Sonic and his friends to stop Chaos from getting any emeralds. So, in order to keep the game fresh, there are no spoilers!
The characters are Sonic (obviously), Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Big (A huge cat who fishes), and E-102 Gamma (A robot created by Eggman). The gameplay for Sonic is obviously racing through the level, destroying Eggman's robots. Tails is sort of like Sonic, except he has to beat Sonic to the end of the stage. Knuckles has to find three shards of the Master Emerald in each stage. Amy goes sort of like Sonic (not very fast, though) and must not be captured by ZERO (not very hard). Big has the most annoying levels of all: Fishing for Froggy. Then you have to fish for larger fish when redoing a level. E-102 Gamma goes through the level, shooting at everything (Boy, what was Sega thinking, eh?) and then free the E-100 series.
Now for the pros and cons.
+ Great 3-D playing.
+ Different game modes.
+ They added Game Gear games, making players want to get all 130 Emblems more.
+ A secret character is playable after getting all 130 emblems.
+ Getting to shoot everything as Gamma... heheh...
+ Some great music.
+ Chao are great to raise. Raising the different types like a Sonic Chao or a NiGHTS Chao, heh.
Cons:
- Some music can get annoying >.>
- UGH! The glitches in this game can make it hard to play at times!
- Fishing?!?! What was Sega smoking?!
- The characters' mouths move to the Japanese talking, rather then fixing it for English.
I'll edit this post if I come up with anything else.
Overall, this is a great game, ignoring the glitches. Something espically great at a lower price of $20.
