Players' Opinions:
Sonic Heroes is really fun but after a while it gets pretty annoying. Whenever Sonic runs too fast for Tails and Knux, and they take a wrong curve into the ocean, they jump right out. In the Sonic games I play, I want to play as Sonic and any of his other friends SOLO.

I think this game is good, but there is quite a bad replay value. Except that, very good indeed.

Sonic Heroes comes out in January supposedly, but it's looking to be the best 3D Sonic game yet, so look out for that.
