Product Description
Sonic The Hedgehog, the Sega classic that changed the way games are played, has come to the Xbox 360 with exciting new features! For the first time, you'll be able to save your high scores and progress as you rocket through the seven gravity-defying stages that started it all. After you outrun Dr. Robotnik and his badniks in Original Mode, race through the famous loop-de-loops even faster with Sonic's trademark Spin Dash in Anniversary Mode which celebrates Sonic's 15th birthday. This special 15th Anniversary Edition also brings tunes from the original soundtrack which you can unlock as you finish the stages.

I'm sure there are people who had fun playing this installment of Sonic, the first for X-Box 360, sans the Arcade versions. I'm happy for them. I tried, I really tried. To be frank, I hated it. I didn't get too far into the game, and it wasn't due to a lack of skill. It was simply because I found myself regretting any time I wasted playing, and I was honestly bored, though that is putting it mildly. I will say it looked very pretty on my HDTV, but so did the movie Doomsday, and that isn't saying much. Cheers.
 not that bad July 25, 2008
sonic the hedgehog is a ok game some of the time. the gliches arn't as bad as people say they are for the 360, but for the PS3, they are. and the load times are no fun at all. the control and camera is frustrating at times as well. sonic is TOOOOO slow for those "blistering next gen speeds" i keep hearing about. overall, this is a "rent it first" kind of game. i personally think it's decent, proboly cause i'm a hard core sonic fan. this is still and undeniablely the worst 3D sonic game ever made! NOT including sonic 3D blast. here's the list...
The Good
The best graphics you have EVER seen, the CGI cut scenes are AMAZING
The music isn't bad
The moch speed stages are fun, with the exception of Crisis City
A FEW good levels
The Bad
Horrible Controls, sonic how could you be running around in circles at a time lik this?
God awful camera.
bad targeting system.
Slowdown every where.
glitches, "How did i just fall through the floor? Is Peter Griffin around?"
bad story, "uh... time travel? Honey! Get me my chaos emeralds!"
bad voice acting.
bad level design.
all characters including sonic are slow.
no camera option.
too dificult.
stupid town missions, "WHO IS THE CAPTAIN" any one?
boring town missions, "YO! find my dog."
boring town in general, no color.
some graphic flaws, drown without a splash, fall through the sand and more.
people in town are basically lifless, most just say "hey" or "hun" or when robots are attacking, even "HUUUUNNNN".
supid towns-people names, "good day Middle Aged Woman."
word to lip motion are way off, a lip reader who can hear would throw his education into qustion.
bad scrip, "I'll head into the Jungle" sonic says, elise responds,"OK".
load times, "can you do this?" loading "do it like this" loading, you do the town mission, loading, your results, loading, your back in the town.
boring town music, any one want to listen to my accordian?
A stupid love story of a big blue hedgehog and a human princess, Amy better call CHEATERS, BEASTIALITY i tell ya!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
theme song over used a bit.
too many hedgehogs,sonic, shadow, silver (how an original name), Mepholis, if he even counts.
stupid level names, "mom, can we go to WAVE OCEAN for vacation?"
the worst physics engine ever.
the game's just no fun with these problems
peace
 epic fail! July 20, 2008
.... i cant even begin to tell you the horror of this game!, the levels, the glitchyness, the way your character seemingless throws himself into the ditches or how about the lack of speed which is rediculous seeing as this is a sonic the hedgehog game!!!!. Ive been a true blue fan for over a decade now, but even i was forced to realize sega's inexcusable effort towards this game!, its unplayable to be honest with you, please dont buy this, i got this game for ten bucks, and wish i never bought it at all!!, i weep for sonic.
A major speed bump July 18, 2008
For anyone planning on buying this game, forewarning: Make sure you are a major fan. Even then, a rental is advised. It is a shame that the series has plummeted to this level when it has so much more to offer. Everything from a shoddy camera, boring sidequests, cheap deaths, and repetitive characters make this one of the most disapointing titles in the series. Sure, the game isn't unplayable and even has a handful of decent moments, but even they aren't enough to save this from being a sub-par title. Make sure you are well prepared. For the fans: maybe. Everyone else: stay away.
