Editorial Reviews :
When longtime Sega mascot Sonic the Hedgehog made his debut on the Dreamcast console in Sonic Adventure, gamers were stunned. Sega had not only used the game to show off the tremendous possibilities of the then-new hardware, but they had reinvigorated the platform-style arcade adventure genre with massive, intricate levels, gleefully distracting minigames, and even a new kind of virtual pet, called a Chao, that could be combined with other pets, traded with friends, and even exchanged over the Internet. Sonic Adventure 2 ups the ante of its predecessor with all-new puzzles and levels, and even faster action reminiscent of the early Genesis-era games. Knuckles and Tails are back, as are the Chao pets (who can now talk!).
Buyer Reviews :
i have been waiting about a year and half for this game . At that time it wasn't officially announced, but i knew that they will make this game one day, and when i saw this yeaterday on the store i bought it right away. Anyway when i bought it, i thought it would be same as sonic adventure with better graphics, new characters, and new stages. But when i played for a while, i realized that this game was very different.
Differences- 1)you don't have to explore and find stages as if it's a RPG game. Like from sonic games from genesis, it brings you right to the action stage. 2)if you are thinking that this game is going to be too easy like the original SA you are wrong. This game's difficulty levels are much harder and more chellanging than the SA, and tails and Dr.Eggman's stages have puzzles to solve in order to proceed. ex. you have to find a switch to open doors. 3)it has many new moves and new options, such as grinding and chaos control and 2p play. 4)you don't pick a specific character and play only as him or her. Once you pick either hero or dark, 3 characters will constantly change as the story goes. 5)if you are playing as knuckles or rouge you are going to see that finding emeralds are more based on clues of the computer in the stages and the radars are not as accurate and reliable as SA. 6) in order to go to the chao world, you have to find the chao key in each stages, which makes it little harder. 7)you will find upgrade items in action stages since there is no such thing called adventure stages.(was that how it was called?) 8)and many more
so is the game better or worse than the original? i think it's better in most ways, but there are somethings that were better in SA.
better and pros- better graphics and details (obiously). less or no slow downs. no exploring. faster gamepplay. More chellanging stages. longer and bigger stages. excellent story (at least as far as i'm in right now.) minigames and 2p play. Many more.
and worse and cons- it might take too long to find emeralds=frustrating. it might be too fast and hard to play, especially as sonic and shadow, you might fall and die when you try to grind on a vine or rail. They say better but i think this game's camera's even worse than SA. The boss battles are less intersting and the vehicles are not good as doesn't look as cool as SA. Play time is short, about 12-15hours according to a website.
Although this game isn't perfect and have minor some cons, the general gameplay, graphic, difficulty level etc improved a lot. And it is one of the best dreamcast games and one of my favorite games. If you like Sonic, even just a little bit, buy this game now. It won't dissapoint you. And when i am done with this game, i will be waiting sonic adventure 3 on gamecube and hopefully on ps2. (since i have a ps2 and i am not planning on buying a gamecube for a long time.)
