This game had a lot of things going for it especially with its graphics and presentation. But after completing the game it's just incredibly disappointing. While the physics and feel of the classic games remain, the level design is just straight up terrible. A lot of the levels seem to try to take elements from the worst levels of Sonic 1. They take an eternity to complete with exploration that is underwhelming and have gimmicks that are either make the level incredibly frustrating or just boring. The bosses are a good idea on paper but in execution they are also terrible. They take way too long to beat just because of the amount of waiting you do after hitting them once. And at the end of the game they just straight up become obnoxious. The music is a mixed bag as while there are some decent tracks, Sega thought it was a brilliant idea to bring in the Sonic 4 sound font literally nobody asked for. Overall the execution of this game is just terrible and I really hope people didn't pay $60 for this. Probably the most disappointing game of this year.
