Sorry about that.īut so far we've not found a way to streamline our review output - there's basically too much of it.

It's a little bit like playing Wii-Sports and Mario Kart at the same time.įamily Video Game Age Ratings | Home | About | Radio shows | Columnists | Competitions | Contact More unusual though is the way each of these collectibles adds an in-race minigame. These either give you a boost or slow your opponents down - that much is expected. Then there are jumps that you have to synchronise with your real-world leaps to maximise height and speed.Īlong the way you can collect power-up items. The impressive scenery flies past as you lean left and right to steer and there is a real sense of speed as you crouch down or hit the on-track pads to gain an extra boost. It looks great and all the regular Sonic characters are here to race as or against.
