SEGA AGES Sonic the Hedgehog 2 Review

If the Sonic movie (which, by the way, I actually enjoyed) has had you yearning to reach for a Sonic game to play right afterwards, then you should most definitely go for the best one, Sonic the Hedgehog 2: the one that introduced us to the blue blur’s lovable sidekick Tails, the Death Egg, and Super Sonic. And the timing couldn’t be better with Sonic 2 arriving on Switch.

Granted, it’s not hard to get a copy of Sonic 2 on any platform these days, including the Switch where it featured in the Mega Drive Classics Collection. I also own the excellent 3D version on 3DS, which is also developed by M2, the best emulation developers in the business. But there’s plenty of incentive to buy this latest SEGA AGES release.
