What Others Say
rip off
it is terrible. its a rip of the genisis version. you can't play with tails. when you have to deafeat the boss you have no rings. and the graphics is lousy. so don't buy it it's just a waste of money.
Probably the worst sonic game, but a good game
What I said above pretty much sums up my feelings about this game. I have played practicaly EVERY sonic game in excistance, with only but a very few exceptions, and am a HUGE Sonic fan. of all the games, I have had the least amount of fun with this one, why? Mainly because the difficulty curve went beserk and would make you think such a thing as a "difficulty curve" was just a figment of your imagination and never existed in the first place. I was un-able to even get passed the first zone because of the "dodgeball" boss, dodging has never been my strong suit in gaming.

Great Fun
An old game never really goes out of style. Same is true with this game. It is an old game that has never gone out of style. As the levels go on we find them to become harder and harder. But the game is still easy enough for people of any age to finish the game. A great game overall.
A step up!
Sonic the Hedgehog 2 for the Sega game gear is a step up from the previuos Sonic title, Sonic the Hedgehog. The gameplay is a little better and the graphics are somewhat sharper. This game is a classic: it is the only Sonic title where you can actually handglide in one zone. If you have never played Sonic 2 for the game gear, I strongly suggest that you purchase a copy right away.
Good, but the game is hard
Well, I don't have a Genesis but I tested both. I have a Game Gear. I used PC to play the Genesis version. The overview:
We go through Genesis and Game Gear in both.
Difficulty: Game Gear - Hard Genesis - Medium (average)
Fun(out of 5 stars): Game Gear - 4 stars Genesis - 4 stars
Worlds: Game Gear - A+ Genesis - A
Enemys: Game Gear - Fantastic Genesis - Average
I could go on but you get it. Still I don't know why the 2 versions are different.
Summary: Buy Game Gear version you are TOTALLY a master at games! I've been playing for 6 years while I'm 10, starting with my NES, mastering many games, but this is the toughest I have! Buy it if you have been gaming for at least 10 years ... Read More
