Sonic Shuffle

"Move over Mario Sonic's here!"

Ok everyone this is my first review (Go ME!) and I just have to say that when I looked at the other scores I was like, WHAT THE HECK WERE THEY THINKING!!! This game is awesome and in my opinion, perfection in a party game.

Graphics: 9/10

Even today these graphics are awesome! Sonic's appearance reminds me of the awesome cartoon show he used to have (the good one not the piece of crap). The animations are smooth and the lighting effects are spectacular.

Sound: 8/10

Some annoying music but for the most part sound effects and music are right on par. I do have a problem with a couple of the voices though.

Story: 5/10 Please, it's a party game

Well ok, I does have some story, Sonic and his pals get thrown into a dimention thingy called maginary world and you can find out the rest

Controls: 10/10

The board control is flawless (there is strategy involved!!! Yipee!) and most mini games are nearly perfect. The ones that are a little messy are usually easy to learn.

Difficulty: 9/10

This game is very difficult. Even on easy the coms are hard but it is extremely easy to work around that. Rarely are they cheap but they do always seem to get the perfect number...

Entertainment: 10/10

This game is awesome in single player and multiplayer. The 2 on 2 minigames really kick ass expecially with you and a human player. Four player mode just rocks because you don't have any cheap coms to play with. I think the best part of this game is the fact that it involves strategy. Unlike mario party, you choose where you want to go and how many spaces through cards.

Extras: 7/10

Quite a few. 4 characters, lots of stuff for your room, ect. It's no SSBM but it will keep you busy

Lifetime: 10/10

This game will keep you coming back as long as your dreamcast still works! The multiplayer mode is awesome and you will spend months playing the mini games!

Overall this game bests Mario Party in every way possible and is a very wise investment of money (expecially because it only costs 10 bucks now!!)

Pros-

-Fun multi and single player
-good controls
-I don't feel like listing everything...

Cons-
-sometimes cheap coms

Rent or buy- BUY BABY!!! (dude, it only costs $10)

Thanks for reading! Why are you still reading this? You should be playing SS! STOP READING!! It's going away now. I SAID STOP READING DAMNIT!!! Bye Bye
