My First Sonic Game December 18, 2006
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I was a little worried that I wouldn't like this game because I never played a Sonic game before. At first it was a little hard because it's so fast but, I quickly got used to it and it was enjoyable. If the game is too hard you can go to options and put it on easy. I'm glad I bought this game and I will soon be purchasing another sonic game for my gamecube. So, I want to reccomend this to you. It's one of my favorite games.
The best Sonic game in years. January 3, 2007

While it is a tad on the short side, and still suffers from the same problems as many other sonic games (you need to memorize levels, cheap deaths, etc), this is the best sonic game since the days of the Genesis; and it's also the fastest Sonic game ever.
Basically, if you've ever loved a Sonic game, get this one; it ranks up there as one of the best.
 great game but not for a small screen January 23, 2007

All the elements of the classic 2D we all fell in love with but it moves so fast on such a small screen that I didn't feel any semblance of a sense of control over what sonic was doing.
Jump into the Rush February 9, 2006

If you really want to know what I think, I think that Sonic Rush is a good game. It is not that I spend all my time playing it or anything, it's just a good game to get to once in a while. However, when you do get to playing it, it will be a galloping good time.
That's right. I just said "galloping good time."
But enough about that for now. I have only really been a true, blue (no pun intended there) Sonic fan since the Dreamcast, what you would call the "Adventure, Shadow, Ark" type era. But I can honestly tell you that the 3D games where you shoot and do light dashes and all that stuff is what I like better. Sonic Rush is still a good game, though.
Now that you have read all my ranting (and I commend you on that), we can actually get on to the game. The first new thing you will notice, right from looking on the cover, is that there is a new hero in town. Her name is Blaze the Cat and she is co-starring with Sonic in this game. Now, I can admit, playing with Sonic is better then playing with her because we have gotten used to Sonic. However, Blaze will probably be a lasting character in the series. Next, you will notice that you will hardly use the stylus at all during the game. You pretty much just use Sonic and Blaze to run and end as many enemies as possible to boost your adrenaline meter, which is a new feature. your DS to make them go really fast. However, unless the adrenaline meter is full, you can only go so fast. Also, to keep the adrenaline meter full, you must defeat enemies and do tricks.You can press and hold your Y or A buttons This will make you temporarily invincible and able to simply brush by enemies. Cool, eh? After that, it is pretty much the things that Sonic fans of the Genesis will remember. About the special stages, they are pretty much like the ones in Sonic 2 for the Genesis except you can't jump over the mines, you use the stylus to move, there are little spring balloon things to help you get rings (just press the little numbers with your stylus in order) and Tails is not there to help you pick up any rings you miss. Also, the bosses are 3D, unlike the actual boards.
All and all, Sonic Rush is a good game. However, fans of the Sonic Adventure games with the full 3D levels and the Chaos Control and all that might want to lay off. However, if you are a die-hard Sonic fan or you really enjoyed the games for the Genesis, then you might feel the need to jump into the Rush.
 Not as i expected March 5, 2006

When i first got this game i was expecting to be very easy . but it was wrong it was extreamly hard and frausrating as it can be " its just like playing a poratable version of sonic heroes the characters go friggin fast which makes it easy for caution mistakes , and thats just not fair at all but I'll get back to the difficulty later on in this review
Gameplay 6/10
It could've been better though , the buttons are just so hard to control , i just think sonic team only made this game for people with smart skills its just so hard
Sound 3/10
the voice acting is annoying in this game for some reason . its mostly annoying when im being frausrated with a certain area in this game .
Music 9/10
Now it does have some catchy tunes in there , but its just not fun to here them while youre being frausrated with the game .
The game is just so hard " And i only got 3 chaos emeralds the 4th special stage is just impossible to beat , and i been stuck on this carnival level ever since december and im even stuck on it with blaze Im just losing all hope in knowing im gonna beat the beat when im not , But the game could've been better if they just made it easy
But if you like challenging games then this is the game for you
