My answer may not be the same for others, but I will stand my ground. What makes Sonic Superstars special? That’s the million-dollar question. I know people will hate me for that, but I have nothing but love for Sonic and most of his friends. I’m a bigger fan of the characters than most of the games. Playing a variety of Sonic games over the years can be a rollercoaster for a casual fan. Who would’ve thought the blue blur would become an icon and be releasing a game 30-plus years later that truly brings the hedgehog back to his roots?
Within the first five minutes, I was hooked. My history with Sonic the Hedgehog goes back to his literal launch on the Sega Genesis, where my late father was one of the first retailers to sell the console and game on day 1. It’s interesting to be writing a review for a franchise I’ve known my whole life and been a fan of, but not covered before. Also On: PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Switch, PC
