Reception[]
For a first official Sonic game to N64 , with the same company who mades Alien vs. Predator (Fighting Game) for SNES , the graphics for 64 is good but compared to Sonic World stage in Sonic Jam , the graphics are little oddy , the gameplay is good , the music is awesome like a normal Sonic game , see the IGN64 review :
- Graphics : 7,5/10 , the graphic is good for N64 quality but compared to Sonic R or Sonic Jam , it's very simple game
- Gameplay : 9/10 , it's very good gameplay compared to Sonic R and Sonic Jam , the gameplay is very good like old games.
- Musics : 10/10 , the Musics are remixes of other games , specially my favorite one , the remix of the Green Hill stage of Sonic 2!
- Fun : 8.5/10 , the player will be fun all time but because the graphics oddity and no have multiplayer modes , it's not make the game "perfect"
- Final : 9.9/10 , simple enough , is the best Sonic game for a Nintendo plataform , but , in category of 3D Games , I put the game in the third place , in second Super Mario 64 and in the first Metal Gear Solid.
