Sonic the Hedgehog for Xbox 360 Reviews by Gamers

Let me begin off by saying that i am in fact, a sonic the hedgehog fan. This game however is seriously bad. There are two kinds of stages: Action stages, and town stages. Lets start off on the town stages. You run around a REALLY small town looking for people in need, buying things, or getting into an action stage. The town stages are frequently cramped, making it extremely hard to navigate (being fast doesn't help here). The quest system is 1.find person in need, 2.listen to that person talk, 3.accept, 4. 2-minute loading screen 5. more info on what to do 6. 2-minute loading screen.7.complete 8.load 9. reward 10.load. The shop is downright awful awful. with the only stuff coming in is stuff that you need for the main quest (wouldn't be so bad if you got them BEFORE the actually needed them!) Next is the action stages. These are (almost) as bad as the town stages. An average action stage is usually running and killing bad guys. So What's wrong with it? Well since you asked, Your attacks will sometimes shoot you way into different directions (which is often in a bottomless pit meaning you die!). Frequent bugs like falling through the level and running through walls into oblivion kill what could have been a good game. misc. Complaints
When you run out of lives, you get sent to the main menu. it forces you to do town stages again all thee way up to where you died (the action stages) the "checkpoints are after you beat action stages. Long load times are another complaint. like i said before each load is around two minutes and the occurs A LOT.
Pros?
Well, the pre-rendered cutscenes look absolutely gorgeous

Even if you are an extreme fan of Sonic i recommend you stay away from this one. If you must, rent it using your gamefly subscription. Don't make my mistake and shell out 59.99$ for it
