Sonic Spinball Review

During the majority of 1993, there were no main Sonic games.  There were games for the SEGA Game Gear, but we're not talking about those today.  Near the end of 1993, SEGA came out with Sonic Spinball for the Genesis/Mega Drive.  Even though this game was not part of the main story of Sonic, it was still fun to keep that need for speed.  However, this game is infamous for difficulty and control.  How does this game stand against DirectGamers?  Lets find out; this is our review of Sonic Spinball for the SEGA Genesis/Megadrive.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 Review

Courtesy of SEGA 
With the release of Sonic the Hedgehog being a huge success in many ways, SEGA needed to come up with a sequel for the game.  As the sequel was being created in America by some members of Sonic Team and the SEGA Technical Institute, SEGA of Japan was creating Sonic CD for the SEGA CD.  This game literally took the blue hedgehog to a whole new level, with the help of a two-tail fox named Mile "Tails" Prower (speed joke... you got it?).  Sonic the Hedgehog 2 was finally on store shelves in Japan on November 21, 1992 and in North America and Europe on November 24, 1992.  Great gimmick they had for it, which was known as Sonic Twosday.  If you're interested, check out the information on it.  Did this game match up to the original, surpass it, or did it fall short of glory?  Let's find out in a DirectGamers' review of Sonic the Hedgehog 2 for the SEGA Genesis/ MEGA DRIVE.
