    Sonic Rush 0

    Sonic Rush is everything that made the Genesis classics great and more. You've got your sense of speed, great boss fights, and you don't have any superfluous characters being shoved down your throat.The game looks and sounds great. This is Sonic in a 2.5D adventure; a first for the series. The character models are in 3D, and the levels and backgrounds are all in brilliantly colored 2D. You couldn't ask anything more from a DS title. The music is catchy and always seems to suit the situation. As ...

    A quick 2D side-scrolling adventure, in every sense of the word. 0

    Every gamer has at least some memories of a Sonic game; he is one of the biggest gaming mascots the world has ever seen and has a global following to match. The series has gone through many changes over the years from the 2D retro classics right up to the not so classic adventure games of the past few years. This time Sonic takes a step back and truly returns to his roots in Sonic DS. A fast-paced 2D side-scroller that not only takes place on one screen but puts the DS and it’s dual-screen capab...

    The right way to make a 3D Sonic, even if it is technically 2D. 0

    It seems that with every major Sonic game of this generation, the quality declines a bit. The 3D games are broken and just plain too easy and seem to be rehashes while the 2D ones are great but almost always overlooked. But finally, one Sonic game combines the great gameplay of the 2D's with the notoriety of the 3D games. That game is Sonic Rush. Where to begin, where to begin. The gameplay is a blast from the past. It ditches almost all the innovations of the new games in favor of the old game...

    Sonic Rush Review 1

    There seem to be two completely different roads in the Sonic Universe. The 3D Realm of Sonic games, and the Handheld Sonic games, starting with Sonic Advanced, and succeeding into Sonic Rush. Why the 3D Realm decides to play in one genre on one of the games, it slowely decides to cut off that idea in search for something better. The 2D Sonic Realm decides to pick up where the Genesis games left off after the lifespan of the Genesis. Fast elements of Gameplay and short but sweet platforming momen...

    Just plain fun. 1

    Sonic has strayed from his 2D lineage in recent years to try and compete with the likes of Mario and Ratchet and Clank in the 3D realm of platforming. With the exception of the adventure series, his attempts have been futile. Now, I had been hearing that the hand-held Sonic games were still solid additions to the series, so when I saw this game sued, I decided I'd give it a try. The graphics here are essentially the traditional 2D look with some tweaks. First of all the characters themselves are...

    It's Sonic on another adventure now on the DS! 0

    Sonic Rush is a good game but there is a little bit more to be desired. Sonic Rush is a lot like Sonic and Knuckles for the Sega Genesis. This updated Sonic game is fun to play and can entertain anyone who grew up with Sonic! The atmosphere in the game is bright and colorful and the layouts are designed well but not not well enough to provide a very hard challenge. The music in this game is what you can expect for a high speed Sonic game. The voice acting in the game can get annoying after awhil...

    Sonic Rush 0

    Hello, this is my first review, but I'll try my best.  Introduction:  Sonic Rush is the first sonic game for the Nintendo DS, it returns to the 2D gameplay like it spiritual prequel Sonic Advance.   Gameplay (4.5 out of 5)  The gameplay in the game it's simple, run and jump. With the d-pad and the jump button you can pretty much play the game, like many of the Sonic games, fun and easy. But it adds some new features to the classic Sonic gameplay, like turbo and the tricks, that can be used to re...
