As a game, I had some fun with Sonic Adventure 2, but the fact that there were so many things wrong with it, and because it strayed too far from the original formula, irritated me. I saw the fall start with Sonic Adventure 2. Others saw the fall start with Sonic Heroes. I guess I lowered my dissapointment bar one game earlier than everyone else. Anyways, I think that Sonic and the Secret Rings is equivilent to Sonic Heroes, which isn't a good thing. You liked it, but many others did not, or at least not as much as the better Sonic games. I mean, it got around 70% in www.gamerankings.com, which is around what Sonic Heroes got, so that tells you something. A true Sonic game never gets reviews below 80%. Because Sonic and the Secret Rings did not get above 80%, it is considered, by many, to be one of the dissapointing games. If only Sonic went down with Sega, than none of this crap would have ever happened. Well, Sonic Adventure 2 would still exist, but at least none of the other, worse games that soon followed. |
I, personally, found nothing wrong. The only one was the game's camera was focused on going foward. Which, if you play the game like that, is fine. I is a bit better in Knuckles/Rouge's stages.
As for Secret Ring, it's better then you thought. Critics are hard to trust any more. Look at Lair. No one could agree on a score. This game is similar. It's one critics hate, but Sonic fans love. It is a step in the right dirrection, and if they take some of the critism and try to make it more arcady (like the originals, no save) then we're good.
