    I unironically love that game. It was equal parts bold and stupid. Where else you can find a game about a cartoon mascot character who can side with a alien-demon invasion to try to kill the president and the hero protagonist? SEGA can be judged for many things but they weren’t afraid to dare.

    I also really like how they did multiple endings. I know ultimately there is a single canon one but it’s still interesting to see all the others.

    Compared to Sonic Heroes which was released during the same generation, I like this game much more.

      Playing the first mission a bunch of times was a bit of a chore but I did like the multiple endings and branching story. I’ve played around half of the endings many years ago. The “I’m an Android now, I guess?” ending is my favourite.
