 1998/1999: Sonic Adventure 1 is released as a launch title on the SEGA DREAMCAST and is met with great financial and critical success, soon becoming the console's best selling game.

 2001: Sonic Adventure 2 is released. Is a critical success as was its predecessor.


And here's your problem. Now, Sonic Adventure games weren't exactly a critical success.

 And everybody liked the games, which is exactly why it sold so many copies. The reviewers of the ports Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut and Sonic Adventure 2: Battle were obviously n00bs.

 My point is that games like Unleash'd were met with huge bias; it was almost like the Adventure Games.
 How were the Werehog levels complain'd about? Beat-em-up games are fun. There have always been gimmicks in Sonic games.

 Sonic Unleash'd was a near Sonic Adventure 3. In 1999/2000 and 2001, many were more tolerable to gimmicks. A Sonic Adventure 3 should be released, completely focused on the highspeed adventure platforming.

 I've always liked the new gameplay styles though. gh
