look i'm not gonna pretend this game is the scourge of the earth. i'm also not gonna pretend i have anything new to say about it. it's the incredibly middling end result of sonic team being pressured to make something shippable in time for christmas. it has more focus on spectacle than anything, and that would overall be fine if it didn't feel like levels were bland and tedious, and the controls weren't outright unsuited for standstill platforming.

loses a point for classic sonic's iron fortress. i'm glad sonic team is finally getting their way for frontiers, tho.
