Sonic and the Secret Rings

[wayne919]

just got sonic for wii and think its amazing curious to see everyones else opinions, complaints, comments

[Joe Redifer]

It sucks. I explain why here.

[Mr Smith]

I don't own a Wii as it seems too gimmicky at the moment. I am very interested to know what folk think of new Sonic games, myself having become deeply disillusioned after Sonic Adventure 2.

[Flash1087]

Me, I liked it!

I picked it up today and have been having a good time with it. The controls are a touch sluggish, and Sonic's acceleration is crap until you get a few skills down the line, but other than that it's a lot of fun. I'd much rather play this than StH360.

[InternalPrimate]

I'll have something in-depth written on it soon

[JFLY]

I'm liking it too.

[Dartagnan1083]

I'm not that far in, but the setup so far is oh so unpolished and reliant on memorization and having the right skills.

at this stage. . .Heroes was better

Wasn't Heroes utter tosh?

[Sen]

Reviews are disappointing again. I am not able to try it though, the Wii is far too gimmicky for me and much too expansive for what its offering.
I did quite like the recent Sonic games though. Altough the faillings were apparent, the strengths are too. I completed Sonic 360 with pleasure.

[VinnyT]

Do you just point the Wii-Mote like usual, or hold it sideways like a driving game?

[InternalPrimate]

^^^ You hold it sideways like a driving game.

It feels different at first, but it eventually works well. Like all Wii games so far, there absolutely is a decent learning curve.

if anyone is thinking about geting this game circuit city has a deal if you buy the game you get a $10 gift card

[TheGZeus]

I'm actually considering buying ソニックと秘密のリング　and play it on my student's Wii.
However, that will be determined by how excited I am when I see the awesome used game systems at Hard Off(the most awesome store name ever).

[Dartagnan1083]

Wasn't Heroes utter tosh?

only to those that were unwilling to deal with the learning curve.
Holding Up and jumping occasionally won't work here as it did in Sonic Adventure 2 (my least favorite game in the franchise that I played).
Despite the problems, 'heroes' really was a good game when it wanted to be.


My current problem with Secret Rings is that some levels are impossible without the right skills. Some even make Sonic control better. . .
WHY THE HELL DON'T YOU START WITH THOSE?!?!?

Why should I have to backtrack to old levels and fire-souls just to get through the main game?

[Joe Redifer]

I got to one part where there was a pot with wings on it. I jump in and nothing happens. I was like "WTF?" There was no explanation of what to do... except in the instruction manual.

I don't like how Sonic's chest is on fire. Sonic has become really lame. Surely this entire game is one of Sonic's dreams, because no way would he start out with such a lame skill set that is far inferior to Sonic 1.
