Sonic Colors Ultimate

SCORE: 92

I am so thankful I had enough money to purchase Sonic Colors Ultimate on the Playstation 4. Sonic Colors Ultimate can also be found on the Nintendo Switch, PC, and Xbox One. I played Sonic Colors Ultimate on the Playstation 5. Hopefully you caught the live streams I did of Sonic Colors Ultimate. I really enjoyed playing this game and it was the first Sonic video game I have played in awhile. It is neat to see this Wii video game appear on these newer systems.

Dr Eggman feels horrible about all of his conquering the world schemes in Sonic Colors Ultimate. He creates a five planet amusement park for everyone to enjoy. Sonic and Tails crash this new park because they are sure Dr Eggman is up to something nefarious. All he is doing is capturing some alien creatures to power things. Nothing too terrible. But Sonic the Hedgehog has to stop him. Along the way Sonic is granted powers by the aliens. The different colors of the aliens give different powers. White lets Sonic shoot himself along a specifically chosen trajectory. The yellow aliens let Sonic dig through the ground (or things like cake). As players unlock the aliens they can replay previously levels and worlds to acquire more things.

The dialogue in the cut scenes will have families laughing. It is neat to see that Sonic Colors Ultimate does not take itself too seriously. The graphics in all but the cut scenes have been improved drastically. At times the cut scenes seemed to lag graphically to me. The controls in Sonic Colors Ultimate are fantastic and very forgiving. We must hold the jump button to make certain jumps in Sonic Colors Ultimate. Sonic will lock on and be able to go right where he has locked on with the press of the X button. This allows him to traverse large chasms by bouncing off of flying enemy after flying enemy.

We are freeing all kinds of creatures in Sonic Colors Ultimate. The goal is to stop the enslavement of these creatures. I can get behind that. I know we have slavery in our world to this day and age. I applaud everyone fighting against the slavery that happens today. I feel that Sonic Colors Ultimate is worth the price of admission. I enjoyed playing the PS4 version of Sonic Colors Ultimate. We are scored on each level and can find a certain number of red star rings. The boss levels are very different and interesting in this game that swamps between 2D and 3D. Families should check out Sonic Colors Ultimate.
