Sonic Advance 2 - Software Publisher's Description:
Sonic Advance 2 review:5 stars (The best!) - This is the best Sonic game on GBA. Sonic Advance was good,but #3 was very bad. Sonic Advance 2 has a new character named Cream. She is really neat but dosn't have much of an attack. I'd reccomend this game because you alot faster and there's more action in it.4 stars ( Great game but with frustrating problems.) - While not necessarily raising the bar in my opinion the way "Sonic Battle" did for me, "Sonic Advance 2" is nonetheless another home run for the legendary Sonic video game franchise.
The play pattern is virtually the same as it's classic Sega Genesis ancestors: Dr. Eggman (previously known as Robotnik) is once again causing havoc with his megalomaniac schemes of taking over the entire world by building another 'death egg' (God, everything he builds is named after eggs) spaceship by wielding the power of the legendary chaos emeralds. Even worse is that Sonic's friends have been captured by Eggman and held hostage.
As a result, in the beginning, Sonic is the only available player but as one beats the boss machine at the end of the stages, more characters are unlocked and the game begins to branch into different versions of itself. My favorite is a tie between Tails and Cream.
The problem with this game though is a frustrating part. Although not completely, I've found it almost downright impossible to find all seven special rings in order to access the special stages at the end of each regular stage. (I've managed to get to special stage one after "Leaf Forest" but that's it) The last six regular stages make it like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Otehr than that, this is a very good Sonic Adventure game and is another good addition to the Sonic Legacy. With the frustrating Special Stage requirements, I guess they didn't call it "Sonic Advance" for nothing. :/ :) 3 stars (This is stupid. I reconmmend you play Sonic Mega Collection ) - I cannot say much about this game, but enough to steer you clear. The story is that Dr. Eggman is making trouble again. That is it. There are no story telling elements witin the game. The object of the game is to get from point A to point B. If you run fast enough in one direction for enough time, you will create a sonic boom and go supersonic. Which needs to happen more often. Within the levels are emblems. You need a certain amount to go to special stage and get a emerald. Let me tell you, it is so hard to actually collect the emblems, I have never been to special stage. The emeralds unlock the final boss. The characters are varied by skills and stats. Cheese can attack from a distance. Knuckles can punch. Amy has a hammer. Sonic is fast. Tails can fly.
Whoopie. Now I can go through the whole game with just Cream and Cheese and not break a sweat. There is a diffculty imbalance here.
This game is too imbalanced to be fun.
Now go play Sonic Mega Collection my groupies!!!!
