 Good for playing with friends October 13, 2008
The story mode is kind of weird but after an hour or two, you get used to it. It is very different to other sonic games as its multiplayer mode can take up to four people and the mini games are much more competitive.
Pretty good Sonic game! Shame it's on-rails though. August 23, 2008
This was one of my first Wii games, and it isn't bad either! There's Sonic only gameplay to be expected here, so some who hated the abundance of other characters will really like it. However this game is completely on-rails, which makes it very different from other Sonic games. Also, there's a whole Arabian feel to it, and the levels reflect this. The music and graphics are very nice, and Party mode is fun and hilarious. There's also a Special book where, by completing certain missions, you get concept art, music, medals and more! I'd say this game is definitely better than Sonic 06 by far.
That doesn't mean it hasn't got its fair share of flaws though. Most of these are that Shahra, the character who gives you hints and such, gets very annoying after a while especially when she goes on and on in any stage you're playing. Also, at first the controls are pretty hard, but you get used to them after a while. Then there's the whole RPG skills element thing, which really doesn't fit with the game. And it's silly that at the beginning of the game Sonic is slow as a snail, but once you level up more and more he'll get faster and earn better skills and stuff. Some stages can be very tedious too and the bosses (particularily the last one) are an annoyance.
Overall I say the fun factor of this game is alright, and the game itself is just good. Of course this game isn't the best since Sonic Adventure 2, but it's a good Sonic game either way and is FAR better than Sonic 06.
 Just Plain Awkward August 18, 2008

I use to have a Sega Gamegear when I was growing up and use to play Sonic none stop.
So when I got my Wii, this was the first game I pick up and could hardly wait to get the packaging off.
1.)The main let down with this game is the player simply does not have full control.Sonic speeds along through out the stages and you simply till the controls left or right to control the direction, you also get to press A to jump. (yipe!)
2.) I found playing to be less fun and more fiddly, than it needed to be.
3.) The sub menus where the most irritating thing of this game.
4.) If you hoping to pick this up for any under 10years, don't bother, game play will be much to challenge to really have any fun. feels more like homework.
Overall, if you ever played Sonic and was hoping to recapture that awesome control and speed, then try another game. This version is just plain annoying.

Loved the old Sonic games and this does not dissapoint!
You need to get through the first levels and then Sonic becomes more agile and fun. Many new levels and worlds open up.
Felt like giving up on the game at first! So glad i didnt. As it progresses into a great game!
Recommend it :D
 The worst game I have played by far August 1, 2008

I only played this for 10 minutes as I found it the most boring game I have ever played, might suit the younger generation, but after having a sega many years ago and playing Sonic the hedgehog I decided to try this game out, big mistake, it was highly boring and I couldnt get the movements right, my recommendation would be to buy yourself a sega game station and play the original games if you are a fan of sonic. I am 21 years old and would recommend this to the kiddies.
