Special stages appropriately reprise the iconic half-pipe tunnel runs from the original Sonic sequel, which are still some of the most exciting Sonic experiences available, and the new-lick-of-paint recreations here do not disappoint as you hunt down those Chaos Emeralds.When entering a Special Stage, the player's perspective is switched to behind the playable characters, who are constantly running down a flat-domed half-pipe course. There are atmospheric sandstorms and streams of the black gold itself to navigate in the Oil Desert Zone, and acrobatic airplane maneuvers to be had among the afterburners of the Sky Fortress. In glorious high definition, the snow in White Park Zone crunches and powders around as you snowboard or rollercoaster at ludicrous speeds. Much of this game, you have already experienced of course.
#Sonic 4 episode 2 supersonic update
Super Mario Bros: Wii showed how an update of a classic formula can still be successful both critically and commercially on home console, and that you needn’t feel like you are paying for something you have already experienced.
It is then surprising how much the return of Sonic’s canidae comrade reinvigorates the series. Despite unanimously positive notices, Sonic 4′s first installment was a little dull in this reviewer’s opinion.
