Sonic R [Racing Game]Potential Pros & Cons PROS: - Has that "Sonic" feel - Colorful graphics and nice environments - Excellent and memorable music - Has a few unlockabkles CONS: - Character models are as sharp and polygonal as scissors, and you're supposed to run with them? - Game is very short - Game is easy, despite having awful play control Bel States:"All I'm going to say is that this game isn't much of anything without its soundtrack. This game plays a serious Siren's song, but once you break free from the witchcraft, you see Sonic R in its most vulnerable state. This game is mediocre and barely playable."Vyse States: "I thought the stage design was very imaginative and well thought out. The game still (even to this day) has one of the greatest soundtracks that I have ever heard in a game. Unfortunately, neither creative level design nor outstanding music could make me ignore the nightmarish controls. With effort, they are tolerable, but the game is fairly easy to play because of a lack of aggressive A.I., not because of responsive controls. Great for the soundtrack, but if you are looking for a better racer, I'd rather recommend Daytona USA: Championship Edition before I'd recommend Sonic R."Game Screenshots Back to Sega Saturn Reviews Page Back to the Video Game Reviews Page Back to the Sanctuary Entrance For more cool stuff, check out the General Gaming Interest and Video Game Scans sections.
