In 1991,Sega released the Sega genesis.At the time of it's launch,there were a lot of great games,and one of those games was sonic the hedgehog.The story of a blue hedgehog named sonic who must stop the evil dr ivo robotnik from turning all of the animals into robots.This game truly defined "Blast processing" A unique feature that the genesis rival the super Nintendo did have.Then came a saying called "Sega does what nintendon't.Then eleven years later,sonic got his first title on the game boy advance.But was this game as fast paced
as the original titles for the sega genesis?
Story-6/10
Ok I'm going to be honest,I do not actually know the plot of this game.The game just opens up with eggman and then they show the playable characters then we get on with the game...WAT? How are we supposed to now the story of this game? Oh well...
Gameplay-8/10
Sonic advance plays like all of the genesis titles,except now you get to play as tails,knuckles,and amy.Then you get into the game,if you haven't noticed,you will need rings in order to survive in the game,these can be obtained from the ground or in boxes.Each of the characters have their own abilities,sonic can do a little attack if you press A in the air,tails can fly,knuckles can glide onto walls,and Amy can use her hammer.Most of the enemies surprisingly return from the genesis titles,the crab guy,the monkey,etc.Well theres all I can say about the gameplay.
Graphics-9/10
Considering this game was released in 2002(One year after the GBA was released)It looks really good! But the same sprites are used for all 3 advance games! Also super Mario bros z.And the backgrounds look OK.
Sound-8/10
Sega is known for their catchy music i:e super monkey ball,and this game is a huge example.Such places as the beach or the glaciers have
quite catchy music,and like always we get awesome sfx,i:e the ring sound we all know and love,or the box effect.It's up there with super monkey ball as Sega's catchiest songs.
Addictiveness-8/10
Like all genesis games,sonic advance is quite addicting,except there are no bonus stages,a major aspect of the original games.At least this game has one thing that made all the other games shine,BLAST PROCESSING!
Depth-7/10
Don't think your gonna finish this game and never play it again,there is some replay value,there's a time attack mode where you can beat your best time or a tiny chao garden where you can care for your own chao or even a vs mode.So there is some depth to sonic advance.
Difficulty-4/10
Ok I admit it,sonic advance is not that hard of a game actually,the only hard part of the game is some of the boss fights,i mean i needed a walkthrough of the boss in the ice world! But now you know why i rated the difficulty a four.
Overall-7.4/10
In my opinion,sonic advance is a great way to bring sonic back to his roots,it's got flair,charm,blast processing everything. Oh well bye!
