Sonic is in TRIPLE TROUBLE! gamerforlifefor..
On October 15, 1994, Sonic Triple Trouble was released in North America on the game gear. It was the sequel to Sonic Chaos. Out of all of Sonic's 8 bit adventures, Sonic Triple Trouble is without a doubt the best one. It's also one of the best game gear games ever made. Why do I say this? Well I'll explain why by making this review.
Graphics: 9/10 The graphics in Sonic Triple Trouble are superb. There aren't very many games on the Game Gear that are as visually appealing as this game. The character sprites are some of the best looking you'll find on an 8 bit system. Also I have to say the scenery looks gorgeous as well. I did have one major problem with the game though, and that's the fact that sometimes when you're in the middle of intense combat, the game sometimes slows down. If it weren't for the slowdown, I would've given the graphics a 10, but because of this problem, I have to give this category a 9.
Sound: 9/10 I know I've said this plenty of times before, but the Sonic series has some of the best soundtracks you'll hear in video games. Somehow, this game's soundtrack is almost as good as some of the genesis games. Some of the most notable music in this game are Sunset Park Act 3, the boss theme, and Nack's theme. However, there is one theme in this game that was terrible, and that was Metal Sonic's theme. I don't know what was going on in the mind of the guy who made that theme... Fortunately though, that was the only bad music in the game. Despite how bad Metal Sonic's theme is, Sonic Triple Trouble still proves that even a game gear game can have a killer soundtrack. For that reason I'm giving the sound a 9.
Addictiveness: 10/10 Sonic Triple Trouble offers some of the most addicting gameplay you'll find in a Game Gear game. There's a wonderful variety of levels and gameplay. You'll be riding in mine carts, exploring underwater using Tails' submarine, collect rings in a plane, and you'll even fight a train. Also the game has plenty of replay value since you can play as either Sonic or Tails. With all this variety of gameplay, Sonic Triple Trouble is easily one of the funnest games ever made for the Game Gear. For these reasons, I'm giving the addictiveness a 10.
Story: 7/10 In Sonic Triple Trouble, Dr. Robotnik has managed to find all the Chaos Emeralds. Unfortunately for him, an accident in the testing phase of his new ultimate weapon causes the chaos emeralds to scatter. He got back the yellow emerald, but could not find the others. Sonic and Tails are trying to find and retrieve them, so Robotnik tricks Knuckles into believing that Sonic and Tails are trying to steal the emeralds. If dealing with Robotnik and Knuckles wasn't hard enough, there's a treasure hunter named Nack the Weasel who found the remaining emeralds and he wants to make money off of them. Now Sonic and Tails must retrieve all the emeralds from Nack and defeat Dr. Robotnik and Knuckles the Echidna. This is a pretty decent plot for an 8 bit platforming game. For that reason I'm giving the story a 7.
Depth: 8/10 For a game gear game, Sonic Triple Trouble offers plenty of depth. There's 6 zones with 3 acts in them, there's plenty of boss battles, and there's some special stages as well. Also because of the fact that you can play as Sonic or Tails, you can play the game again as the character you didn't play as in your first playthrough. Because of how much depth this game has for a Game Gear game, I'm giving this category an 8.
Difficulty: 2/10 Compared to a lot of the other classic Sonic games, Sonic Triple Trouble is a fairly easy game to beat. There were only a few stages in the whole game that were in any way challenging. A lot of the levels can be beaten in one try, and the boss battles aren't super difficult either. If you're looking for a super hard Sonic game, then you should probably look somewhere else. Because the game is very easy, I'm giving the difficulty a 2.
Overall Score: 9/10 Sonic Triple Trouble is one of the best Game Gear titles ever made. It has a mostly wonderful soundtrack, great graphics for it's time, and addicting gameplay. However, the game suffers from a lack of difficulty and occasional slowdowns. Overall though, Sonic Triple Trouble is a great game for platforming fans, Sonic fans, and newcomers who want to see what a great Sonic game is like. Because of how great this game is, I'm giving the overall score for this game a 9.

Sonic Triple Trouble review G@mehe@d
Sonic Triple Trouble is a very underrated game that made Sonic's Game Gear games more promising. Unfortunately, the Game Gear was not doing very well and the game was released in 1994 when the Game Gear was beginning to see a dark future. Unlike the previous 8-bit Sonic titles, Sonic Triple Trouble is flawless in the gameplay department, well..... almost. Let's take a closer look at this hidden gem.GAMEPLAY B+: Sonic Triple Trouble is definitely more fun then the previous 8 bit games. The level design is better and the game is more satisfying to play. The amount of exploration that's in this game is high. It's actually easy to get lost in the later levels. I like the special stages in this game as well. The only downfall is how slow paced the game seems. In the 16 bit Sonic games, Sonic was the fastest thing alive. In this game, Sonic seems to not have to run full speed as much as the 16 bit Sonic. Still this game will have Sonic fans feeling right at home.GRAPHICS B+: The graphics look quite good for a Game Gear game. The sprites are big and colorful. The scenery is a lot more detailed as well. This might be one of the best looking Game Gear games ever. A major drawback is the amount of slowdown that is within this game. I'm not kidding. I understand slowdown in a game that has a lot going on a once. I don't understand why slowdown happens the second your in the air with no sprites on screen. This is what a lot of other game critics criticized about. Except they made a big deal out of it and gave this game low scores. Despite the behemoth of slowdown, the graphics for this game are pretty good.SOUND A: The best part about the game is the sound. I always loved Sonic music, especially the music in Sonic CD. This games music is be played through an 8-bit machine, but don't let that fool you. There is some of the best songs from a Sonic game in this game. The only minor problem is the high pitched sound effects. Many people who played the 8-bit Sonic games are probably used to it though.ADDICTIVENESS A-: The amount of exploration in this game adds a lot of replay value. When you pick as Tails you can explore these levels much easier so that only makes you stay on longer. Like the majority of Sonic games. You have the option to collect all the chaos emeralds to get the good ending. That adds even more replay value. So this game is very addicting.DEPTH B+: For a little Game Gear cartridge, this game has quite a bit to offer. There are 6 zones with 3 acts in each of them. Plus some cool special stages. So the game is pretty large for a Game Gear game.DIFFICULTY EASY: This game is very easy which might drive away a lot of people who want a challenge. There's not a lot of enemies there's more traps then enemies.OVERALL RATING B+I am sorry I did not do the Lode Runner review it will be reviewed soon. Beating a game with 150 levels takes a long time.Upcoming reviewsBlazing Lazers (TG16)Doom (Sega 32X)Mario Tennis (Virtual Boy)New Super Mario Bros Wii (Wii)Double Dragon (NES)Pokemon Stadium (N64)Mortal Combat (Genesis)Virtua Fighter (Arcade)Qix (NES)

An Uchiha Review
Welcome this is the second Review by your truly Madara Uchiha, I have notice a lot of game gear games but I guess this will be the first, a lot of people have been going wild with this game ever since it was release on the Vizzed soil and I guess 22,668 play/view is a huge amount but let see why it is that play.
Graphics (5): as we all know Game gear graphics aren't the well best, in the sense if you compare with even sonic 1, but for the entire game system record I like to give this game a...five, for the most while I have see what I like to said is the best Character spirit in game gear system,, I enjoy the creative look the character give when you are hit or defeat, so I have said what I need to, moving on.
Sound (4): I just to be straight with this, the sound is understandable and well played but it lack the suspense and also I was annoy at the Egg man theme battle and also metal sonic theme, but it acceptable so I won't go that low, I really enjoy the sunset park theme, so it get a four in my opinion but I won't let that ruin the game for you sound and music isn't everything, moving on.
Addictiveness (3): well......I wouldn't go to this game ever and would be at least months before I think of coming here, why? It just when you put collecting the chaos Emeralds and not knowing where the heck they are, it kind of annoying but I would try to endure it or at least find a wiki, but all in all if you miss one and finish the game you would pack your vizzed and head out to another game , it just to much to play it from the start to collect the emeralds, moving on.
Story (6): the story is my favour part, a game without a story is...not even a game well it start like this: Egg man after his defeat in Sonic 3 and surviving the crash of his egg carrier, swim to an island and recover his robots parts from the ruin of the egg carrier and create the egg fortress and built a large amount robot to serve him(this was during the Knuckles storyline, the game itself was after Sonic 3 in all), he then send his best creation Metal sonic Mk1(Mk 2 is in Sonic CD and beyond) to capture Knuckles and bring him to him and so he did, Knuckles was just enjoy a normal day until Metal sonic came with his knives like finger ready to stab him, but Knuckle dodge it and fought a heavy battle but due to Metal Sonic barrier couldn't harm him and tired out allowing Metal Sonic to grab him and take him to the egg fortress, where Egg man put him in a brain washing machine making him his mindless servant who giggle a lot, with Knuckles at his side he set a trap for Sonic by making Knuck deal his(or tail) phone and lying that he was in danger, Sonic of course went super sonic flow to the Island of the doctor Robotnik or at the time Egg man, as he flow Egg man actives his super sonic deflecting wave which shut down his powers and making the emeralds fell to the ground to which Knuckles collect them and run to the fortress with Sonic and Tail(who flow the way there with his air plane) quick on his trail, but as fate will have a treasure hunter named Nack the Weasel shot Knuckle with a missile and stole all of the Emeralds, Knuckles then went to recover his master stolen jewels with Sonic and Tail quick on his trail, but Egg man found the last yellow Emeralds needed in his grand plan which is to power his waves machine which would leave his chosen city without power meaning that war machine like tanks, fighter planes, and power plant will be shut down allow him to send his minion to attack and enslave the city and then the world (after of course fixing the power plant) with Knuckle leading his other minion every one shall know the name DOCTOR EGG MAN!!, will sonic defeat this mad man? Will he save Knuckles? Will he find and defeat the treasure hunter named Nack the Weasel? How can he do three thing at once? Find out in sonic triple troubles. Moving on.
Depth (5): well I got few thing to say when I played this, you got a lot to do and thing to complete, I really only know three, collect chaos emerald, finish the stage and defeated knuckles, the third one is not that hard and can't be avoided, so there is actually just three but that how it is, even the title said it so I give a five, moving on.
Difficulty (7): I really think people don't mind this part, well here how it goes, collect the chaos emerald are the hardness thing to do, there just too many trick that can make you restart or even leave, can you really tell me that you can running around the entire level without wiki or any videos and said it not that difficult, I guess I made my point, moving on.
Overall (7.9): it a great game, good story and will be best to played it even if it just once and also it the only game I have played that stick to it name with pride,anyway this have been Madara Uchiha signing out.
