    This game offers tons of different things to do that include: six different playable characters, a new mission mode, and even the Game Gear Sonic games.

    The levels are inconsistent in their difficulty and some of the play mechanics - fishing, in particular - are frustrating, but the game offers a lot of play. [July 2003, p.145]

    The additions are nice, yet it's obvious that Sega didn't even try addressing the well-known shortcomings of the Dreamcast game.

    Sonic Adventure DX should have, could have been so much more than a straight port with a few improvements.

    It is nonstop fun. Dr. Eggman is up to his old tricks again but now he has Chaos to help him. By collecting all the chaos emeralds, Chaos will reach his perfect form. It's up to Sonic and his friends to stop Eggman. The game is fast and exciting, with some fun game modes to make it even better.… Expand

    The game's not bad but it's not the best Sonic game like most fanboys will tell you. Sonic & Tails levels are all about the speedy platforming that made the series famous in it their first attempt at 3D. It's nowhere near the quality and fun of the originals but it's not bad. Be cautious when buying this game though, there are 4 other characters that will force you to go into these poorly made alternate gameplay styles that will make you wish they had just more of the WELL DONE speed levels. Knuckles is reduced to a treasure hunter, Amy is a slow Sonic that must escape from a robot, Big's level are about fishing(yes, fishing. What were they thinking?) and Gamma's levels are bland mech shooters. I don't know what they were thinking making alternate gameplay, but over the speedy Sonic levels are the majority of the game, thankfully.… Expand

    I think you are all idiots. This game's nothing but a horrible port with framerate problems and a $40 price tag... try renting it first before foolishly rating it...… Expand
