Three Horrible Sonic Games
Who does not know Sonic the Hedgehog. Ask any teenager in any country and chances are high that they not only know Sonic, they also have some of his video games at home right now. It is impressive to think what an impact Sonic has had on the our social culture. But not everything Sonic touches turns into gold, not every game he stars in is an instant classic. Let's take a quick look at the bad games.
Sonic Labyrinth
This is a game for the game gear. In this game Sonic walks slowly, they took away his speed. How can you take away the most important aspect of the blue hero? Another big mistake they made is that you cannot jump. If you want to move fast, you can use the spin dash.
The object of the game is to collect keys to exit the stage. If you get hit while you have the keys, they will scatter all around. Now you have to collect all them again.
The music in this game is pretty bland. The sound effects are familiar. Every one knows the sounds when you collect rings or when you lose them. The stages in this game are also very bland.
Sonic Drift
This game was basically created, because Sega saw the huge success Nintendo had with Mario Kart. Sega wanted in on the action and created Sonic Drift. But they should not have made this game see the daylight at all.
The game misses that fun factor that is available in Mario Kart. Remember how you used to play Mario Kart with your friends and tried to beat them by collecting the necessary items. That was fun and fun is something this game is lacking, because it is too boring.
Sonic Shuffle
This is a game that appeared on the cool Dreamcast console. I really thought Sega would create another classic, but Sonic Shuffle let me down. It feels like the game is trying to be good, but is lacking the final finishing touches.
Your goal is to collect all the precious stones. The game offers many mini games that could have been left out. You basically play a board game and get to do mini games. Some of them are fun but most are irritating.
After looking at these games you might ask yourself how Sega could go from instant classics, like Sonic the Hedgehog 2, to racing games like Sonic Drift. Just stick to the classics and stay away from the bad ones.
You will have more fun looking at paint dry. All joking aside, in all honesty you do want to skip these games at all cost. If you are a diehard fan and really want to play all the sonic games, go ahead and rent them, because after a day or two you will want to return them.
