I give
Sonic Adventure on the PSN a solid 6 out of 10.
Back in the early 2000s, when third party SEGA went into full swing, fans were seeing the likes of Crazy Taxi on PS2,
Sonic Adventure on Gamecube, and Jet Set Radio «s sequel JSRF on the Xbox.
In the latest update from Microsoft, players can now play
Sonic Adventure on Xbox One.
1999's
Sonic Adventure on the Dreamcast deserves credit for finding a way to translate the Sonic formula into three dimensions, with its high - adrenaline speed sections and hub worlds, as well as for its typically grand soundtrack.
While Sonic Tean has obviously gone to some lengths to try and make Billy Hatcher play differently to Sonic, the fact that the game still suffers from many of the problems that plagued the original
Sonic Adventure on the Dreamcast shows that the develpoer still hasn't mastered the basics of 3D gaming.
This games hasn't gotten particularly good reviews from the gaming press, but as a long time fan of 3D Sonic games (going back to
Sonic Adventure on the Dreamcast), I really enjoyed it.
This re-distribution of
Sonic Adventure on the PSN is essentially the same exact game we got back on the Dreamcast, and it's still just as fun.
The result is an unsightly juxtaposition I haven't encountered since the original
Sonic Adventure on Sega's Dreamcast, when the squat, blue hedgehog ran around a city with a similar visual design.
The identity these games had and their exemplary quality are traits the franchise drifted away from over time, with most titles instead taking inspiration from the later
Sonic Adventure on Dreamcast.
