Sonic Heroes for GameCube

Strengths: It's fun to go really, really fast

Weakness: Plagued by poor camera, cheesy dialogue, and does not compel me to want to get better at playing it

This game has been on my wishlist since the demo came with Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, but when we finally did pick it up, it proved to be a disappointment due to numerous flaws. I've enjoyed Sonic games in the past, especially on the Sega Genesis. On the surface, this game seems to potentially recapture the glory of past Sonic games, with new features like playing as a team of characters...

Sonic Heroes for GameCube

Strengths: Great graphics improvement from the Sonic Adventure 2 Battle

Weakness: 3 people is a lot to handle!

Althogh this game is different than any other Sonic game, it does not degrade the Sonic fast pace and extreme action. The levels are plenty long and there are many of them. If you are gonig to get all of the emblems, all I can say is good luck.

More Sonic In 3D With More Fast Action Parts And...

Strengths: Graphics, Framerate on single player

Weakness: Framerate in multiplayer, Camera during slower parts of the game.

Sonic Heroes is the first all original 3D Sonic game to come out since Sonic Adventure 2 came out on the Dreamcast. While it does a better job of doing the high speed parts of the gameplay action justice (over Sonic Adenture 1 or 2), during the slower more exporation parts of the game the camera system can give you a bad view of what's going on at times much like the previous 3D Sonic games...

Solid Sonic Action

Strengths: The graphics look sharp on the Gamecube. Levels reminiscent of the old 2D Sonic games.

Weakness: The voice acting is weak and can get annoying at times.

Overall, this is a solid Sonic game. The graphics are crisp, and very bright and colorful. The action is mainly fast paced, although I didn't really like the feel of the flying characters. You get a choice of several characters grouped into 4 groups of 3. The groups are mainly similar, but they have different special moves and attacks, however each group has a dedicated speed, power, and flying...

Sonic Heroes!!!

Strengths: The graphics ROCKS!!!

Weakness: Nada...

There are 14 levels, and bonus stages as well. And they are FUN. You'll instantly get used to the three character action. It's just so much fun to be able to switch between the different chaacters with a push of a button and being able to use team attacks. When the characters pick up speed and start flying every which way, you're instantly reminded of what Sonic is really about.

Sonic Heroes

Strengths: Good graphics, multiple story lines, fast Sonic action

Weakness: Camera issues as with all the 3D Sonic games

Sonic Heroes marks a return to the speed antics of Sonic and friends that were somewhat lacking in the Sonic Adventure games. While those were fun, they became bogged down during the "adventure" aspects. While there are slower portions to Sonic Heroes, they aren't too frequent. The gimmick in this game is the ability to choose one of four 3 member teams to use in the game. This adds a lot of...

decent game

Strengths: The action is very very fast. This game is for people that like speed.

Weakness: Poor voicing. Boring story line. Collecting emblems and stuff is no fun.

This is nothing like the classic sega games. Although the action is Fzero like, i simply did not like the storyline. The voice acting was horrible but I guess the younger generation wouldnt mind it. I grew up with the old Sega games but it definitely is not. At least there are many levels to play. Gets boring once you finish the game and has almost no replay value.

Sonic Heroes GameCube

Strengths: Gameplay is fast and furious

Weakness: Camera Angles, Story

Sonic Heroes for the GameCube is an interesting spin on the the classic Sonic game by implementing a team based strategy. You control 3 different characters on up to 4 different teams. Each character has its own strengths and provides different techniques to solve problems as they arise. As in all Sonic games, the game gives a good feeling of speed and there is nothing objectionable for younger...
