It is hard but fun I say.

Here I am reviewing yet another Sonic game and I must say that he nevers fails to disappoint me.

Sonic Advance 2 fars surpasses its first outing with graphics, moves and new characters. One good thing I noticed was that you only had Sonic at the beginning and you had to unlock the other four, Cream the rabbit and her Chao Cheese, Tails the two tailed fox, Knuckles the echidna and finally Amy Rose the pink hedgehog.

This offered challenge as you had to fight Eggman in order to play as your friends.

The game offers much more tactical moves in order to help you reach higher places or to find secret items or simply to survive. Such as when you are flying through the air and you want to get to a far off platform, you can press both the direction you are heading and the R button and you will gain a small bit of speed to help get there.

The acts and zones are much longer than Sonic Advance which gives you more room to explore and makes it more challenging to find the seven special rings which take you to the special stages in order to find the seven Choas Emeralds.

The boss fights with Eggman have been completely changed. Now you are constantly running and Eggman has a huge machine and has many traps to attack you. Rings appear as you run so use them wisely. He is no push over as some of the bosses have very weel been thought of and it also depends on which character you are using. In my opinion Cream is the best character ti use.

Now with the characters. As usual Sonic is the fastest character, good jumper and has aerobatic moves. Sonic can be used to clear the acts of the zones quickly and to get rid of enemies that can be annoying. These are his advantages, his disadvantages are that it can be hard to find secret things as him since he is very fast and does not have abilities to let him reach high places such as Tails and Cream have their abilty to fly and Knuckles can glide and climb up walls. Sonic can also have a hard time battling against Eggman's bosses. However, Sonic is still of the of the best characters.

Now, onto our new characters, Cream the rabbit and her trusty Chao friend Cheese. Most people assume that Cream isn't a very good character because of her appearance but do not judge a book by its cover as Cream shows this. First of all, she is not like Amy in Sonic Advance, Cream has a good running speed and when she jumps she also rolls into a ball like Sonic, Tails and Knuckles while Amy cold not do this. Cream can also fly by flapping her ears, Cream is a faster flyer than Tails but you have more control over Tails and he has a longer amount of time in the air. Cream attacks by using Cheese, which is brilliant as you can send Cheese to attack as long as Cream is close to an robot. Cream can also use Cheese as a shield when she jumps. Creams disadvantages are mainly the fact that she can get hit easily. Cream is the best character to use when battling Eggman as she does not have to get to close to him by send Cheese to attack. Cream is on of the best characters in the game.

Probably the most popular character in the series is the one and only Miles "Tails" Prowler. As you all know Tails is known for his ability to fly. He may not be as fast as Cream when she flys but he has better control and can stay in the air longer. Tails have useful attacks using his tails and also his jumping moves. When he flys his tails can be used to attack enemies in the air. Tails has a good running speed a bit behind Knuckles and a little over Cream. Tails disadvantages are that he is very vunerable when in the air and can get hit very easily and since he cannot move that fast in the air he can get hit by traps easily.

Knuckles is the most powerful character in the game. He has an excellent running speed behind Sonic and has very useful abilities. His ability to glide over the platforms and to climb up walls can really help you in tight spots. He can jump high and can use his punches to get robots out of the way. Anything that is in front of Knuckles when he glides can be attacked. His disadvantage is that he is probably the hardest to control which can make it annoying to find the special rings and secret places.

I can't comment on Amy as I haven't unlocked her yet but she was a good character in Sonic Advance so I think that she will be better off in this one.

The bad thing about Sonic Advance 2 is that it is a little too challenging for its own taste. The seven special rings are a nightmare to find, and if you die you lose them all so you would have to go back and find them again. Also the same with Sonic Advance is that you can move so fast that you don't notice the traps on the ground or the empty spaces that plummet you to your death (the annoying Sky Cannon zone).

These are just minor though as you don't really notice them as you have nothing but just high speed and jumping fun with these four (remember I haven't unlocked Amy yet) amazing characters wuth their own set of unique moves!

The good thing about this game is when you get past a boss you start breakdancing!You start the game with Sonic,(you ulock the others),you first ulock Cream,then Tails ad last Knuckles,but there is a bonus character to unlock at the end,Amy Rose.The gameplay is great,but the bad thing is when you get stuck, you end up pulling your hair out in frustration!This game is really good, except a bit too hard.

Sonic Advance 2 is a great game cause you get to go Tails and the new character Cream the Rabbit. The levels and graphics are exellent and my fav level is Music Plant with Tails.
The good thing about it too is you have to unlock Amy and get extra features. I have completed this game and I find it easy.
If you like Sonic and Tails you need to buy this game!!!!
A great game better than Sonic Advance! I have this game too!

sonic has returned with his old friends and a new one to kick robotniks arse one more time. i dont care if they call him eggman nowadays or not, this game is purely old-school sonic, blazing speed, and lots of different paths to take. while many have a problem with the boss-battles they're overeacting, the new setup makes it a little more fun and its the freshness of ideas expressed on this game that makes it so great. anyone who remembers sonic the way it was, like sonic 3, or sonic 2, should definetly pick this up, you wont be sorry, and if you have sonic adventure battle 2 you can transfer your chao to the sonic advance 2 cart, but you have to unlock it first. altogether, sonic greatness.
