Video Game Reviews of Sonic Adventure
Customer Review: None will read this but I feel it is my duty
Summary: 5 Stars
The dreamcast is dead, no more consoles from sega, great games lost? Not neccasirly you can get them on the gamecube too. However I was hear to write a review.This game is fast action, and exploration, and questing. There are missions you have to unlock and sub missions you must complete plus you can switch between characters. And each characters levels differ, like tails racing sonic or knuckles finding shards, this was quite possibly the best platformer ever made. It puts mario to shame and I hope the known world undesrtands this!

Dear Sega,since you now make games for Nintendo how about you rerelease this game and put it on Game Cube.That would be greatly appreciated.This game is awesome.Its even better than Super Mario 64. The only thing is I no longer have a Dreamcast.Hopefully they will rerelease this game and put it onto the new Nintendo Game Cube which I do have.The game is too great not to rerelease it.It has been a crime to humanity that so much time has passed and there hasnt been a rerelease of this game and hasnt been put onto the Cube yet.I mean you get to play as Knuckles,Sonic,Tails,Big The Cat,Amy Rose and that robot thing.Please rerelease this.NOW!Customer Review: Sonic is my favorite!

The many special effects in this game are terrific! Beware, Sonic goes fast! It's fun to be many characters. There's many difficult levels, but it's never boring. At first I thought it was too difficult to get anywhere. So I just tried a little harder & SUCCESS! The colors are beautiful, especially when Chaos explodes.There's also a place where you can play with the Chow, which are little creatures, in the Chow Garden. I can't wait to get Sonic Adventure 2, but I will still want to play with this one.
Customer Review: One of the best Sonic games
Summary: 4 Stars
When it came out, this game was HUGELY anticipated. After all, the Sonic the Hedgehog series is one of the most popular in videogame history. Was it worth the wait? Was it worth the hype? Is it worth picking up even now?The transition from 2D to 3D has been much discussed in the past, and you can see why. What works great in 2D doesn't always translate so well into the 3D world. And when a series makes this sometimes awkward transition there are usually a few hiccups.
Sonic Adventure attempts to use level design that gives you the speed of the original games, while also featuring puzzle solving and rpg/adventure elements (talk to people, play mini-games, open doors, ect.). By featuring several different characters for you to play as, the game allows you to play a balanced game (sonic), blast through stages with nothing slowing you down (tails), run away like a chicken (amy), shoot everythign in sight (the robot), go on a treasure hunt (knuckles), or spend all your time fishing(?) (big the cat). Each of these elements is entertaining in its own right, but where the game really shines is the action scenes as sonic and tails. The adventure portion of this game suffers from the same flaw as many rpgs (namely, you can't find the stupid key to open the door). So the first time through you may hit a few snags. And the some of the more adventure/platformer elements can get VERY frustrating (I hate the platforming section of the snow level and the skydeck level in particular). And of course, the collision detection, polygon clipping, and camera problems are pretty darn buggy.
Still, you've got to love this game. The graphics are great, some of the levels (the first level, windy valley, and speed highway especially) are just plain awesome. Everyone should at the very least play this game, and true videogames fans should own it. It has flaws that can't be ignored, but there are enough moments of greatness (how about the part in the temple where you see the stone carving of chaos destroying the world?!) to more than make up for it. Definitely check it out.
