Leave djgarfs Willy alone!shaun,
djgarf's animated red guy walking is pissing me off. give hiim a [time out] too!
Liking this a lot more than the last one, it is pretty much the same but not as pretty IMO. I'm glad Sega didn't get Sonic Team to develop it as I reckon they're pretty much past it. Personally I preferred the None ST developed titles like Sonic 2, 3 & Knuckles (though ST did oversee them).
Only problem is the dull storyline, Sonic games don't need it! For crying out loud concentrate on more important issues. I'd also prefer if the sprite were a touch larger, there were some puzzles or levers to pull (ala Sonic 3) and that the 3D levels were only bonus levels after collecting a certain amount of rings.
Though little has changed since the last game, as a DS platformer however its pretty good compared to most crap we get but it is kinda easy, think I'm half way through it already.
