Sonic Heroes came out in 2003 and is the possible follow up to Sonic Adventure 2, the game is not bad, but not great either, the game is in the middle. The game has many design flaws and glitches but somehow keep it fresh for it's target audience: Sonic fans. Here's why this game is OK The story is OK, the story starts depending which Team you choose, let's start With the obvious one, Sonic. Sonic and his friends Tails and Knuckles gets a Message from Dr Eggman that he is gonna take over the world once again and destroy them, Sonic and the others Accept the Message and goes on a mission to destroy all his robots and take him Down, while Team Dark on the other hand, takes a Whole New route, Rouge the Bat locates Dr Eggman's Secret base and finds Shadow who somehow survived his fall in SA2, but one of Eggman's creations, E123 Omega tries to kill Shadow but somehow fails because Rouge decides to destroy Eggman With both of them, Shadow has amnesia and Omega has been locked in the base for many years and you know the rest.
Team Rose's story is bad. Amy Rose, Cream and Big the Cat need to track Down Sonic so she can marry him and receive Froggy and Chocoloa that he stole from them which isn't true, Eggman did it, and they stop him. Team Chaotix is good, BTW this team is from the Sega 32x game Knuckles Chaotix. Vector, Charmy and Espio get a walkie-talkie and starts a Journey to track Down Eggman to receive Money and get Rich, of course when they finally track him, because all the other Eggman's where robot duplicates, he is being locked inside, and he tells them that Metal Sonic did all this, and every team must stop Metal Sonic before he destroys the world.
Enough of the story, the gameplay is a 3d platformer With the formula of a 2d Sonic game, 2 stages then a Boss fight With Eggman. A New feature for this game is the Team switching mechanic, and it's pretty good, it's useful for the platforming of the game. The platforming is a lot of fun but can be frustrating due to it's tiresome design.
The Graphics are detailed and beautiful, some of the best looking Sonic games in my opinion. The Controls are good but sometimes, they can be slippery, but that's pretty rare. The Levels themselves are pretty good but some are annoying like Casino Park and Final Fortress.
The difficulty for each Team is OK, sometimes the Levels take too long especially when you're playing Team Dark and Team Sonic, but all teams are a lot of fun.
Then there's the problems. The game's special stages are horrible, as the Control in these stages are unbearable and it's Waste of time. The game is full of glitches, like characters flipping out, Moon jump and dying for no reason and the design is clunky and some of the bosses were too easy, but that's all Sonic Heroes is an OK game With great Graphics, fun gameplay and btw a pretty decent soundtrack, but the story, glitches, design, Special stages and the overall game is not that good, i Recommend it only for the die hard fans of Sonic. OK game
6/10
