Sonic Heroes
Sonic Heroes is a 2003 3D platform game developed by Sonic Team USA and published by Sega as part of the Sonic the Hedgehog series. The player races a team of series characters through levels to amass rings, defeat robots. And collect the seven Chaos Emeralds needed to defeat Doctor Eggman. Within each level, the player switches between the team’s three characters, who each have unique abilities, to overcome obstacles. Sonic Heroes abandons the action-adventure and exploration-based gameplay of its predecessors Sonic Adventure (1998) and Sonic Adventure 2 (2001) and instead returns to the linear style of Sega Genesis-era Sonic games.
However, the game was the first multi-platform Sonic game, produced for the GameCube, PlayStation 2, Xbox, and Windows platforms. Sonic Team USA’s Yuji Naka and Takashi Iizuka led the game’s 20-month development. The team wanted Sonic Heroes to appeal beyond Sonic series fans and so designed a game that did not depend on the continuation of its predecessors. But the team revived elements not seen since the Genesis Sonic games, such as special stages and the Chaotix characters. Sega released Sonic Heroes in Japan in December 2003 and worldwide in early 2004.
Moreover, reviewers were polarized. They praised the game’s focus on fast gameplay and noted its similarities to the series’ original 2D entries, a choice that some considered an improvement from the Sonic Adventure games. Also reviewers highlighted its graphic design and detailed environments and textures. However, Critics, derided the game for not addressing the problems of previous series games, such as poor camera, controls and voice acting. But despite mixed reviews, the game was commercially successful, with 3.41 million copies sold by 2007.

This was my very first look at the “fastest thing alive” and to put it bluntly I’ve been a die-hard fan ever since!The story is exciting, and fast-paced, but also great for people who are new to the Sonic world.There are four different teams to play as, all with there own stories and difficulty levels.They are Team Rose(easy), Team Sonic(medium), Team Dark(Hard), and Team Chaotix(mission-based).The level designs and backgrounds are Awesome! They include things like Jungles and canyons. There are 14 levels total.The gameplay is relaxed and casual. A new feture allows you to play as three characters at a time insted of one and you can switch the “leader” at any time. There are many different moves to use depending on who the leader is and a cool new ultimate move called team blast. Each Team has there own team blast. The Special stages are reminiscent of the ones from Sonic the Hedgehog 2 on Genesis, only a lot nicer to look at. The graphics are top-notch and to top it all off what would a Sonic game be without speed! I own over 100 different video games now, but this game is and probably always will be my favorite game. A true Sonic Masterpiece! Way to go SEGA!!!!!

This game is one the best sonic games ever, it has 14 stages and 4 different ways to play them all! Which means they are also 56 challenges in total and 7 special stages. This game has over 10 hours of gameplay, and even has a 2 player mode.

It is a fun game but I thought it would be better than I expected to be. While the game is fun, it is a hard game to complete, like the Sonic Adventure series.

I enjoyed the fact that this was compatible with the Xbox 360 and my Samsung HD TV. There was a little bit of fuzz in the main menu. There are no emulation lines when playing the game, just on the main menu. I did not like the fact that you can’t get rid of the black widescreen bars, since it is not compatible with my TV width. However, once you start playing it, the bars are hardly noticeable, and they blend with your peripheral vision. I’m reliving my childhood in Seaside Hill (my favorite level, and Ocean Palace, too). I used to play this all the time back in the early 2000’s on my Windows XP, when I was a little kid. I still think this game has the sort of nostalgia that many games nowadays fail to achieve.

People that don’t like sonic heroes or genarally sonic the hedgehog are off their rocker,i grew up with sonic since i was 2 when he made his first appearence on game gear i am his biggest fan and i think sonic heroes is truly the best sonic game yet and even the best action game, the graphics are the best i’ve ever seen(and i play a lot of games) sonic heroes is a must have for any sonic fan it also has a lot of missions and it really is something different.
