Sonic the Hedgehog 2

On today's agenda, I'm reviewing Sonic the Hedgehog 2!

STORY - 7/10: After the events of Sonic CD, I decided to create the Death Egg, a giant super spacestation to aid in my world conquest! Sonic, and his new friend, Tails, tried to stop me!

GAMEPLAY - 8/10: The gameplay options really improved since Sonic 1. Sonic now has a spindash move, which would become his most famous manuvuer. Tails, who'd follow you in 1-Player mode, would attack enemies. In 2-player adventure mode, a second player could controll Tails. The special stages were given a new style too, and a 2-player vs. mode was added. This game had a lot more variety.

SOUND - 6/10: Sonic 1's music was great, Sonic CD's was absolutely astounding... But Sonic 2's seemed to lack in the sound department. There were some good themes, but not as much as its two big predecessors.

GRAPHICS - 7.5/10: The graphics are just a bit better than Sonic 1's. Well done in general.

REPLAY VALUE - 7/10: With more of an incentive to get the Chaos Emeralds, a 2-player vs. mode, and way more zones, this game's a bit more addictive than Sonic 1. It's a fun game overall.

AMOUNT OF EGGMAN - 8/10: I got a pretty decent amount of screentime here. Can't complain.

OVERALL - 7/10: This game does pretty well. Give it a play some time.

CHANGES FROM JAPAN TO AMERICA: What do you know, my name was changed to "Robotnik" again! How surprising. Once again, the Badnik names were changed. That's about it for this one. The same changes that affected Sonic 1 happened here.

This review's done. Get lost! Muahaha!
