Conclusion (6.0):
However, it has to be said, out of all the Sonic titles currently doing the rounds, if Sega choose one title to use as a foundation for progression, Rivals is undoubtedly up there in the lead. The 2.5D approach lends itself to a high degree of three dimensional graphical fidelity, with all the convenience of a simple two-axis approach to game design. Whilst Rivals 2 has it’s fair share of problems, the race mode alone shows the path that should be taken for the future of the series, and for that reason, I can just about recommend it to any single-player Sonic fan out there. Just don’t expect a lengthy and consistent experience, but then, you already knew that.
