Sonic Colors - Nintendo Wii

I bought it for my daughter at her request. She cant stop playing it but the different levels are proving to be a challenge for her. The reason for my rating is, i have never played it so i could only rate it from my daughters point of view

Its properly named because the coloring in the graphics of this game is sensational.

Expensive

My son loves this game. thank you

I am going on my daughters opinion since I dont play video games. She loves this game and plays it all the time and is very picky about video games.

This is the best 3-D Sonic game. Lets just start there. Sonic Team finally dropped the gimmicks, the useless characters, and the over-the-top storylines and brought Sonic back to his roots while still utilizing the current-gen look and feel. A lot of what works here seems to have been inspired by Mario Galaxy, but that doesnt really bother me since the original Sonic for the Genesis was also a reaction to Mario. In this game, Sonic Team managed to find a camera system that works very well (whyd it take so long?), the controls are fine most of the time, and this is some of the best music - minus the opening theme song - that Jun Senoue has composed. For the first time in ages I enjoyed playing a Sonic game. The use of Wisps is very well done. While there are some levels where you need to use them to complete the stage, in others the Wisps are optional, and its great to be able to return to levels with new Wisp powers and find new areas. The added bonus of collecting red coins to open levels in the virtual Sonic stages is a very nice touch (although its best to play these levels by yourself, 2 player is kind of annoying). I hope that SEGA has enough success with this game that we get a sequel, and in that sequel I hope that some niggling bugs can get worked out. First, this game is short. There is great opportunity for replayability by finding all the red coins, but your first runthrough should be no more than 7 or 8 hours. Secondly, there is quite a bit of inconsistency in quality between levels. Some are very long, have a great pace and lots of hidden areas, but then youll hit two or three in a row that are ridiculously short, have little gimmicks in them that seemed designed to do nother more than kill you over and over, and are just not much fun. I dont want to spoil anything, but Ill just say that the final couple of levels and boss fights are remarkably irritating. It very much feels like Sonic Team either lost some of their inspiration towards the end, or just ran out of time. But after such a long stretch of terrible Sonic games, its hard for me to stay mad at Sonic Colors less endearing quirks for too long. This is a huge step in the right direction, and I only hope that future versions of this series expand on what has been developed here.

I bought this game for my son. I personally dont understand this game. Its too fast for me. But new generation of kids loves it :)

This is a really good game. Sega managed to make Sonic great again with this one. The wisps make a good gimmick for this game as they have these crazy powers that are their life source, and they let Sonic use their powers to help save their friends. They’re definitely fun to use, but for me, the pink spike wisps can be a little hard. The setting of an interstellar amusement park that Eggman created is pretty cool, even though it is evil, and each of the stages are awesome too.

This game is really fun and its one of the best sonic games out there so far next to generations. The only problem is that the game is short and youll be finish with it before you know it. I only wished they made it longer.

My son truly enjoys the game
