who made it
M2, a Japanese developer (no Apple Chip), known for their work on re-releases and ports, was responsible for the entire 3D Classics lineup. Sega, of course.
what is the premise?
um, hello? It’s Sonic!
Sonic is back for his second major expedition with the dastardly Dr. Robotnik. This time, he got a sidekick of his own with Tails, a fun fox whose devotion to Sonic is unmatched.
Like the first Sonic game, Sonic 2 had side-scrolling levels, with each area divided into two levels each. There are tons of bonus stages, chaos emeralds to collect, and more calls than you’ll find in the call center.
why should i play?
Sure, there are about 30,000 other ways to play this, but this 3DS exclusive version is one of the best. If you have even the slightest interest in gaming, Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is a must. It’s a classic for a reason, and one of the best entries in Sega’s long-running franchise to this day (apart from Sonic the Hedgehog 3, of course).
