    good game... but it aint in full screen, it's just a little square format which is weird.. Sega made a False Advertisement by calling this HD, the camera angle has problems sometimes also

    7/10

    Played this when i was younger, by that time it was awesome, one of the best games on the Dreamcast, when the port was announced i was extremely happy, by the end though it seems the title didn´t aged pretty well, play with Sonic and Tails and have fun but the other 4 are clunky or boring, it´s still a good game

    I know hardcore gamers like me should be grateful that the Dreamcast is getting love... But I gotta say that this game really hasn't aged well. I find myself bored trying to beat it with everybody.

    A for nostalgia, tho.

    The PS3 version of Sonic Adventure is oddly just an emulator running the Dreamcast version. It doesn't support widescreen, has a weird box around the screen, and has no new features. It's a cheap cash in by Sega, but it's still a game I really like.

    This game is alright. you can play as multiple charaters to get the whole story but two of the charaters are boring and have nothing to do with the story. Sonic is fast and is the funnest, tails get to the end first, knuckles treasuring faster than SA2, Amy stages are sonics but more platforming, BIG fishing, Gamma is too easy. if your curious play it if not don't play

    I did not play the original version and did not beat the whole game in this version either, but I played enough to know there was something wrong with me and the game. I think I just found it a bit boring, despite the graphics and the controls being relatively nice. It is a pity, as I always try to finish almost all the games I start.

    The game works well, even though there is a unnecessary divergence in the characters visual identity and the environments they go through. The idea of multiple playable characters could be good, but the different gameplay styles are so bad, that it's only worth playing with Sonic, and maybe Tails and Knuckles. The rest of them I don't feel like I want to play again.

The rest of them I don't feel like I want to play again. The soundtrack is great, but it also has some identity differences compared to the old games. And the game is badly polished, no matter the version you are playing.… Expand

    At best Sonic Adventure is an amusing history lesson for the tolerant, at worst it just serves as a reminder of how long Sonic has been floundering.

    A game that should've rested in peace with the good old Dreamcast.

    Those vibrant skies still pop and the sense of speed is undeniable, but this is best left as a happy memory. [Issue#232, p.87]
