Sonic Robo Blast

Review by Sorok Echidna

Well... a lot of people are probably gonna be mad at me for what I'm about to say, especially since I'm doing a fan game of my own. Well, I'll try to make this review as unbiased as possible, although I still think this game gets a lot of undeserved kudos.

First the bad news. The graphics... well, see the screenshots for yourself. :-) The control is severely whacked with the keyboard, and it's not much better with a gamepad. The music sounds OK on FM synth, but on a wavetable card, it... well, stinks. And I can't say I really care for the level designs. OK... I'm done ranting now. :-)

Now for the good stuff. And there is a whole lotta good stuff. The replay value is immense, the game is pretty darn challenging, the multiplayer mode is pretty good, the cheats are major lifesavers, and this game is just plain FUN to play. And isn't that the whole point?

I guess my main beef with this game was that it took so darn long to download, and it didn't really need to. After all, why should you have to download Anime sound clips if all you really wanna do is play the game? On Rlan's scale. I would give this game a B. Good, but could have been better.

GRADE: B
