When Shall We See A Sonic the Hedgehog 4 Review?

Hey gamers, this is Chris_sez with an update.  As of today, Sonic the Hedgehog 4 Episode ii is out for both systems and mobile with the added bonus of Episode Metal.  I thought about this game for a while, since my birthday is around the time of the release dates.  When shall DirectGamers do a review for Sonic 4?  The answer is we don't know.  Sorry guys and gals, but in order to complete this classic era, Sonic 3 and Knuckles (as 1 game) has to be reviewed beforehand.  Also, more likely I won't be doing the Sonic 4, the game as a whole, review because I don't have any of the next gen systems and there is not enough space on my iPod to buy and install those games; I already know about Steam, but my computer does not fit any of the requirements (I know, that sucks).  From what I've seen on YouTube due to the Steam leak of the game, the game looks fantastic.  Graphics definitely look better from Sonic 4 Episode i, and I love the music in the game.  I just read Game Informer's review of the game, and I honestly disagree with them entirely.  To me, Sonic 4, as a whole, pays homage to the classics and attempts to become the final slot in the classic era.  Well that's an update for y'all; more news, previews, and reviews will be on the way.  Not every review will be a Sonic game.  Furthermore, don't forget to check out our Twitter page at https://twitter.com/DirectGamers.

Game on!!!!

  1. Interesting update on Sonic 4, and the mobile angle is the part that caught my eye, since Episode II with the Metal Sonic bonus content was a big deal for phone players back then. The point about storage space rings true too, since juggling big games on a small device was a constant headache in that era. These days I mostly unwind with lighter phone games, and the Kick the Buddy APK download guide is a handy reference when I want something quick and stress-free to play. It is a shame a full Sonic 4 review never happened here, but this post is still a nice time capsule of how mobile Sonic was viewed at the time.
