This game oscillates between “kinda cool” and “completely terrible”. Sometimes you get into a flow where you’re running in the open world hitting grind rails and jamming out to music from the franchise’s better games and you think “hey this isn’t bad”. Then you hit a boost pad that popped in 3 feet in front of you throwing Sonic 180 degrees into the other direction as he flies off a cliff into the endless void below the map. When that happens I question how I let the Sonic community trick me into buying this by saying this is one of the good ones.

Still gonna pop off when I hear Live and Learn at the cinema in the next movie.
