Not all the tough bits were cleverly designed though.
but after a while I tried spinning up some serious speed and boom, I breezed right across. I remember I was having a really tough time jumping across the quicksand. And I liked that most of the tricky bits made sense once you figured them out. Carving your own tunnels through the snow was clever too. So fast you can run on water.Īgreed, that is pretty cool. The new 3D backgrounds look great, and better yet they can keep up with Sonics insane speed.
There was a lot I liked about Episode II. Not that their superball would offer protection from my laser.Įasy Darren. By joining their powers together Sonic and Tails become invulnerable and can blast their way through obstacles and enemies. The new Sonic and Tails combo superball attack was awesome though.Īffirmative. Worse still, theres not really any point trying to jump across platforms when you can just fly over them. If you miss a jump you can just cheat and use Tails to save yourself. But it totally cheapened the platforming too. And I liked that this gave you more options to explore the levels. I loved that little mid-air high-five they gave each other. Then you can use his fluffy helicopter to fly around briefly. Tap a button and he swoops in to catch you mid-air. While playing as Sonic, you can call on Tails to help out whenever you want. I can go from stationary to planetary orbit in 7.3. Of course, my jetpack can fly much faster. His name comes from his twin tails, which he can spin like helicopter blades. Tails was introduced as Sonics sidekick in the second Megadrive game, released back in 1992. Hes never been faster! And theyve also reunited Sonic with his old buddy Tails.
But, the developer listened to the community and returned Sonic to his speedier old-school controls, so you can really get a rhythm going. Its true, as beautiful as episode 1 was, they ruined his whole momentum you could let go of the stick and hed juts drop down. Well, Bajo, I remember you werent a fan of the last Sonic episode 1 game.
