Sonic Heroes was developed by Sonic Team and published by Sega. It was released on the Gamecube, Xbox, PC, and PlayStation 2, making it the first game in the series to release on multiple platforms. It was first released in the PAL regions on December 5, 2003. The rest of the world didn't get it until around New Year's. I know a lot of people that regard Sonic Heroes as their favorite entry in the series, but I also know a lot of people who hate Sonic Heroes. In this review you're obviously going to find my stance on the game.

Graphics - 9

Like with a lot of Sonic games, they tend to have awesome graphics for the time of their release, and this game is no exception. The opening cutscenes look like they were made by Pixar and I absolutely love them. It's a shame those types of cutscenes didn't always happen. Sometimes you'd get the weird looking cutscenes that have the characters looking like they're spazzing out. The graphics during gameplay are also very clean, specifically the character models. There are times when a texture seems iffy, but most of the time I don't seem to recognize it. 

Sound - 9

The Sonic series is famous for it's amazing soundtrack and Sonic Heroes has one of my favorite soundtracks in the series. You got well known songs such as Seaside Hill, Frog Forest, Egg Fleet, and one of my favorite songs of all time, What I'm Made Of. I love every single piece of music in this game and I remember going to the sound test and just sitting there and listening to the music. The reason this section is not a 10 is because of how annoying the sound effects can get. I'm mostly talking about the fact that every action you do has the character saying something, most of the time I don't even know what they're saying. I hear a lot of complaints about how they never stop talking, but that doesn't bother me too much. In fact, I'm glad they talk a lot. I dunno, it makes the experience better for me.

Addictiveness - 8

Even though I died countless times throughout the game, I kept on playing until I either beat the level or got a game over. I usually stop playing something the moment it pisses me off, but this game is an exception. I have no idea why. I like the fact that each character has their own special trait and the game manages to merge that into one. You got Speed, Fly, and Power. Certain obstacles will get in your way that only certain characters can get through. Sometimes there are obstacles in which any character can get through so you can just pick who you want. The great level design is another thing that keeps me coming back. This game has some of the best level design I've ever seen, and it never bores me.

Story - 7

Some people find the story all complicated and stuff. Others find it lacking in story. I find it to be just right in the middle. In the beginning of the game there is seemingly no story, no matter which team you chose. Each team has a different opening cutscene and thus has a different main goal throughout the storyline. Team Sonic gets a message from Eggman basically saying "lol I'm evil come get me" and they go find him. Team Dark probably has my favorite goal in the game just because Shadow is there. Oh right, Shadow. For those of you who don't know,
Spoiler:
Shadow "died" at the end of Sonic Adventure 2.
This game is sort of like a sequel to that game chronologically, so fans were surprised when they saw Shadow. Rouge goes into a place or something and finds Shadow and Omega. Shadow doesn't remember anything and Omega is a robot built by Eggman but Eggman sealed him in the room because I dunno. Eggman is dumb. Rouge gets them to stop fighting and they form a team and each strive to reach their goal. Shadow wants to find out about his past, Omega wants revenge on Eggman, and Rouge is just...there. Team Rose each have different goals. Amy wants to find Sonic, Big wants to find Froggy, (surprise kill me) and Cream wants to find Cheese's brother or something, Chocola. Team Chaotix is a detective agency and they get a guy on walkie talkie that promises to give them money if they finish their goal. Eventually, each of the stories meet at the same endpoint and once you collect all the chaos emeralds and finish each story, the last story is unlocked, where you find out who is behind everything. I love it to death and I was not at all expecting the ending. Sure, it gets boring at times, but the end makes it all worth it.

Depth - 8

Like with most Sonic games, Sonic Heroes has these things called emblems. You get emblems by finishing various levels and missions. Each level has two different missions that varies by team. Team Sonic's second mission is to reach the goal before time runs out. Team Dark's second mission is to destroy 100 enemies. Team Rose's second mission is to collect 200 rings. Team Chaotix's second mission varies depending on the level played. If you get all A ranks, get all the emblems, and have finished the game, you unlock Hard Mode. I have no idea what Hard Mode is like since I have never gotten that far but I imagine it's hard.

Difficulty - 8

I'm going to be honest here. I don't know if I just suck or what, but I die in this game a lot. I'm surprised I managed to actually beat this game. The levels are pretty easy until at least the 4th area. Then it starts getting harder and harder each time you finish a level. And I lvoe how they layed out the difficulty. This is how difficulty in a game should be layed out. It's perfect. The only thing I found unfair was the chaos emerald chases. I always thought that you had to repeatedly press B to go fast and reach the emerald. However, the game never tells you that you just have to HOLD IT. Holding the B button makes you go even faster then tapping it. That was my fault for being an idiot.

Overall - 8.3

Sonic Heroes is a very solid entry in the franchise, and I like it. Some people say this is when the series started going downhill until Colors came out, but I have to disagree with them. That would be Sonic 2006. This game MIGHT land in my top 5 games in the franchise, but if not then easily would make the top 10. Just give it time and hopefully it'll start to grow on you.
