Transparently uninspired and lazy. Not the worst Sonic game by any means but its existence makes me angry. I'm not someone who's gonna tell you that the earlier Sonic games were masterpieces but they were clearly products of passion, even the not so great ones, not soulless corporate derivations like this game. The level design is just nothing. Classic Sonic is only in this game to piggyback off of Generations' acclaim. Custom characters only exist to give the game a gimmick and some viral appeal. As usual, the sound team members are the only ones who are trying, Infinite's theme is a banger.
