This game is an insult to everything I love about art and this franchise .

A love hate relatonship .
Iconic yet shallow , maleable yet rigid , fun yet numb , this game is special but also basic , this game is an enigma .

This games comit the crime of being amazingly iconic but also just ass to play which brings everything down . This game could have been saved in my eyes if I actually liked the visual motives and the ost but sadly , I'm not enthralled by them and I couldn't tell you why . Its best feature is how talkative everyone is , I really enjoyed that .

I never actually owned the game but you can be sure I was the best god damned Shy guy in the school yard !

There's no such thing as a perfect game but you play as bowser in this one so its really the closest thing to it .

I play for vibes , and let me tell you the vibes in this game are off the charts !
The sometimes weird controls can be a bit annoying when there is some mild plateforming and more straight forwardness in the level design would be appreciated , having to climb everything back up to have another go is not great . This is fixed in the race missions since this usually mean you get an instant replay znd get to enjoy legit cool physic , really feel like being on skates .

Sometimes , you hate everything about a game in an unresonable ammount and don't feel like changing that because you can't be bothered to play another bad rouge or eggman stage just to finaly play as shadow .

A good old good time .
This game's biggest strenght is the stupid amount of content in it , kid me was abble to sink a lot of time into this one and I regret nothing .

Sapphire being my first pokemon game is very funny , it gave me the worst expectations in terms of water in pokemon game , why is the sea so small in other games (beside kanto I guess) !
Anyway , I really like how this game's map is so well connected and has so many shortcuts and the roster is just the best .

Safe and sometimes a bit bullshit , Sonic advance is a fun game to carry around in your pocket . The graphics are iconic and the controls feel nice but nothing it does is that earth shatering . Knuckles is OP

From the engaging (albeit a bit predictable) story and character to the most adicting zero-G gameplay I ever played , this game is mesmerizing . The sense of weight is what sells this game , everything feel like it has an impact , that means danger but also possibilities . The number of times I was able to use my smarts and se physic to my advantage or get punished for it because I missed the very obvious gas can are far more than I can count .

One of my favorite game ever while at the same time of of my most disliked , the huge shift in game design at the midpoint really make it hard for me to re finish this game in retrospect .
