Yes... That Old innovation... The classic sonic games everyone loves... But on a higher difficulty! What more could you ask for? Sonic & Knuckles is a sight to behold. Such Vibrant colors exploding off of the screen in a Flurry of Beautiful.... The Sweet sound of the music, That crisp, Seemingly seamless gameplay... Outstanding! Wether you're just starting out, or you're a Sonic The Hedgehog Veteran. You will have a great time playing this. also great frustration, Pain, And sadness.. This is what comes with sonic games. Also the Unique Lock on! feature is Great! You can open the top of Sonic and Knuckles and Put sonic 2 in there and you can play Knuckles The Echidna in Sonic 2! How cool is that?! I think I've rambled on long enough. so without further ado, I shall now begin the Review.
Dr.Ivo Robotnik Strikes back! The death egg has returned and its up to Sonic & Knuckles To stop it once and for all. As sonic, You must Race to get the Chaos emeralds before Robotnik! You will experience Speedy levels Tight passages and a whole heck of a lot of enemies. but just remember this and you will do just fine:Just Roll with it.
As Knuckles you must Fight to defend Knuckles's Homeworld. (Little known fact: Knuckles The Echidna's Favorite fruit is grapes!) As evil robot...dudes uh. try to blow it up or something. i never got that far with Knuckles because the difficulty is a bit too high. So i'm a bit lacking in the story
This quite fun Spinoff game is Superbly Stunning. And its really long too. or at least i think. I only got to level 3 as sonic...And couldn't Get past level 1 as Knuckles..
GRAPHICS:10. I have always enjoy sega genesis graphics. Mostly because it was my first system. I feel that we are spoiled on Really awesome graphics like CoD And Stuff. So its quite refreshing to see some old graphics for a change. Each level has great backgrounds And sprites. I mean just look at those sprites! I dont think they could do any better. Absolutely Astounding.
STORY:8. I dont know much about the story, but so far its great! And the fact that The screen doesnt just go black and youre in another level. It actually shows how you got to the level! Like when you grab on to the side of the flying battery. Absolutely no Augmentation Could improve on this. EVAH!
DIFFICULTY:9. Quite a hard game! I've played thousands of games that i can fly through. and i've been struggling with this for a while. Unlike Pokemon, As you advance through the games The difficulty gradually gets harder. I doubt anyone will get bored with this! It's too much fun! Too much too toss into a corner forever.
SOUND:3. Alot of generic Boings and crumbling sounds. Nothing really to see here. They could have done so much better. They could have been Unique. Do I use that word too much? I think its a disease or something.
MUSIC: OOOH YEAHH! 10 DIG IT WHOO!. Killer. The music on this is like no other sonic game. To be honest, I cant stand the other sonic games music. It's just awful. But this one really was good. I'm happy to say that. because i have played alot of games i was dissapointed with the music. Flying battery with that speedyness and that Ancient place with that weird creepyness. I say -ness too much. It's starting to sound like an earthbound review. lol But i gotta say i was impressed with the music on this one.
DIFFICULTY:9 It's gotta be on the top 5 Really hard games list for me. I cant even get past level 1 with knuckles! I hope people can get further than me. But theirs so many levels and the bosses are so hard.. It's great! Which is why i gave it a 9.
ADICTIVENESS:10. Oh yeah. you can bet that you wont put this down for a while. So much fun! And even if you beat it you'll wanna play it again soon. It's one of those games you cant ignore. It's there, and you know it. you won't rest till ya play it. and then you will play it some more. Trapped in an endless cycle of replays your life will be. But its an awesome replay cycle!
DEPTH:6. Hours of enjoyment. Hours of trying to get the chaos emeralds. Hours of pain and misfortune as you lose your last life at a boss and start over again. But even losing is fun! It's that awesome. And if It's that awesome you'll wanna play it forever. Trapped in an endless- nevermind. you get the idea.
So i hope you have a super mega awesome Great time playing this game, dying, replaying in an endless cycle of.. Y'know. Anyways have fun.
