Vastly improved from EP I in a lot of ways but the finished product doesn't feel like it's enough due to the 4 Zones structure, shame EP III got cancelled cause i could see how that would greatly improve over this one too and be decent while this one is Okay
The art design is really beautiful and the backgrounds too and that's definitely the strongest part of this game

the fact a moth infestation hit my bedroom as i was playing this game was no coincidence
this is even worse than episode 1
there is no flow at all you keep having to pause the game for 2 full seconds
not to mention the 6 minute auto scroller at the end
the only area this game improves on the first is the music and visuals
everything else is worse
the level design is worse
the physics are still ass
and the bosses are worse
fuck this game
fuck everything it stands for
i cant accurately describe with words how much i fucking hate this game
fuck it

I guess this was marginally better than Episode 1. At least I was able to convince myself to play through it as a kid whereas I simply abandoned the other game at the same time.
The game pretty much suffers the same problem as the previous game just with controls being slightly better. It is still, however, lazy, unimaginative and trying to milk nostalgia bucks.
At least Sonic Team learnt from Valve and never released Episode 3. The series should end here and now. They ran over like 5 people on the sidewalk already with with this schloop Sonic 4 but at least they braked and didn't do a hit and run on us.
Remember ladies and gentlemen, this game has nothing to do with the classic games and you should never play it.

Going from dogshit prequel to such a bland sequel is such a nothing praise it's honestly not even funny.
Like yes it's better the visual doesn't look like they were made out of clay anymore and the movement felt "normal" this time but do i have to lower my standard for games especially Sonic games just to say "it's really good man i can't believe it!" it being better than Episode I while still have a lot of same faults or even new one(bosses take too long and zones left me displeased),could you really call that a praise?I don't know.
Sonic 4 Episode II definitely takes lesson from what was wrong with Episode I but it didn't really fix itself or gave itself even a snippets of it's identity ended up just overall product being whole lot of nothing and bland.
