    Color me impressed

    The DS version of Sonic Colors is rather neglected compared to its Wii brother - which is a shame, considering that it's not a bad game at all.

    The controls are fluent, the graphics nice, the sound about the same, if slightly lower-quality, as its Wii counterpart, and the final boss is as cool as ever.

The Red Rings are a lot more infuriating to find (Planet Wisp has one in particular that I have no idea how to get), the missions range from frustrating to boring to amusing, and the final boss, a spectacle of graphics and orchestral excitement on consoles, is turned into a simplistic button masher here.

    All in all, it's good for at least a rental, if not a full purchase.

      I haven't played it, but I watched how it was played many time on Youtube. It may not have perfect game play compared to the recent 64 bit Mario games, but it has a better story plot. least it's now available to play on steam, but you'd have to purchase for it. And if you have a mac instead of a pc, download and infall wine bottler so you can get a steam app on it that let's you play it....
