ignissacer29 rates this game: 3/5Sonic the Hedgehog 2 was the folowup to the megahit Sonic the Hedgehog for Sega Genesis.
I played this quite a bit back in the day and decided to play it again just to see if it held up well after all these years. And I was genuinely surprised to say that It holds up exceedingly well considering that this came out 26 years ago. Aside from the draw distance, this game really holds up quite well.
Sonic 2 is more of Sonic with the addition of Tails, but I really never bothered with Tails that much even as a kid. It has more levels, the level design is more streamlined and it introduces a new move called the spin dash in which you can gain speed instantly unlike in Sonic 1 where you have to run to gain speed.
The level designs are done quite well especially the casino level where players could easily waste their time in getting extra lives or just messing around with the casino inspired surroundings.
Sonic 2 is Sonic 1 with more streamlined levels, more interesting boss battles, it's more of Sonic for fans of that blue hedgehog.
Jack Frost rates this game: 5/5The second Sonic game for the Genesis. This time, Sonic has a new friend known as Miles "Tails" Prower, who joins him on nearly every subsequent game. There is a new half-pipe special stage, where Sonic and Tails have to collect a certain ammount of rings to get the Chaos Emeralds. When you collect all 7 Chaos Emeralds, you get Super Sonic, a nearly invincible version of Sonic that is faster, jumps higher, and is immune to damage. This is also the first Sonic game with a 2-Player mode. Released on on November 20, 1992, also known as Sonic 2's Day.
Enjoy!

SushiBrawl rates this game: 5/5I can't remember having this much fun playing a single player platformer in a while. Sonic returns in this game with his friend, Tails. I actually played this game for almost 3 hours straight. You will be addicted to the fast gameplay, puzzles, music and all the action. Personally, level wise, this is my favorite Sonic games. You have your classic levels just as hills, power plants, mountains, mines, ruins, and casinos. I hope you enjoy this game as much as I do.
HugeSonicFan97 says:Sonic The Hedgehog 2 is a fast action/platformer game made for the Sega Genesis in 1992. it consists of eight zones: Emerald Hill, Chemical Plant, Aquatic Ruin, Casino Night, Hill Top, Metropolis, Wing Fortress, and Death Egg. Emerald Hill, Chemical Plant, Aquatic Ruin, Casino Night, and Hill Top each have two acts, the first act being the first part of the zone and the second act being the boss part. Metropolis has three acts, the first two acts are the first parts while the third act is the boss part of the zone. Winged Fortress starts off with Sonic riding on Tails's plane. You head towards the Winged Fortress, which I'm guessing is a plane, and after that zone you head on to the Death Egg where you face a new enemy that has not appeared in the first Sonic The Hedgehog game, Metal Sonic. After you defeat Metal Sonic you go on to face Dr. Robotnik (Dr. Eggman in Japan). The game is really fun and is 5/5 stars to me. I cannot stop playing this game it is the best Genesis game I have ever played in my life. You will be easily addicted to this game. Sonic has his friend Tails with him in this game, in the "Options" menu you get to choose between having both Sonic and Tails together, having Sonic alone, or you can have Tails alone. This game is exciting and addicting and fun and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys fast-paced action platformers. Download now! I guarentee it will NOT be a waste of your time!
