Sonic Rush Adventure: Is it as good as Sonic Rush?
« on: August 09, 2008, 08:48:41 pm »
I've been trying to figure out whether or not to get SRA. I already have SR, played it a lot and is starting to get to the final extra zone. The only problem I have with SR is that, like New Super Mario Bros. and Contra 4, it's shorter than I wish it would be. What I wanna know is whether SRA is worth it or not. It's supposed to have wi-fi versus which sounded good to me, and I wish SR had that instead of just wireless.

Rush Adventure is pretty good. It has ups and downs in terms of quality differences like the fact that there are replays now + online compared to how a bunch of levels are kind of short now... but in terms of quantity, SRA blows the original out of the park. There's no question that there's about 4x the amount of content in this game when compared to rush. And that doesn't even count the artificially lengthened part of the game in which there's like 4 cutscenes before you and the next level.

Plus, I believe the price for the game is discounted now. You can't go wrong with picking this game up.

I 100% agree with this statement. Sonic Rush Adventure is ALOT better than Rush. Every game has it's ups and downs anyway...

Agreed with the above, but be prepared for the WORST Sonic character ever.

G'day mate.

Yeah SRA is way better than Rush, but then again thats not saying a lot from me because I found Rush boring as Hell to play.
Did you not think I had a mind?

Alright, from what I'm hearing then SRA would be very good to get. Too bad I have to buy it over amazon since the game stores I go to dont seem to have it (Or Bleach BoF or Contra 4 or any other great hardcore game for that matter). One of the guys I asked at gamestop said it wasn't good because it's music wasn't as good as SR's, which I found pretty odd since Rush's music wasn't that good to begin with.

I enjoyed both, but the level design and various tweaks in SRA make it the superior product (ie what others have said, so I'm redundant >_>).
This topic has now been officially won by me.  Never mind, you might do better next time!

Also SRA's music is good, but wasn't done by Hideki Naganuma so it's not quite the same. Some of it is done in imitation of his style, some not so much.

Also I don't understand why anybody in their right mind would buy stuff from a high-street store rather than from Amazon marketplace. On the high-street SRA would be like £20/30, Amazon UK marketplace has it as low as £7.50!

maybe I should play SRA some more >_>

also I didn't very much like the music in Rush either.  there were like 3 tracks that were good, but the rest was getting on my nerves.

I found SRA to be the best recent Sonic game; and one of my favorites ever. Marine was annoying, but fun to watch at others' expense. Her relentless annoyance of the other characters was hilarious. :D

Sure, the Rush series doesn't play like the old 2D games, but I doubt that they were supposed to. The whole idea was to get to the finish with speed in mind and using the advantage of the boost and tricks. It's certainly not just "hold right to win" as most people say, as you're actually keeping things in check.

Adventure shook things up a bit with it's mostly referred to "unnecessary replayability gimmicks" but I wouldn't blame them as progression through the game can get tiring. I still think that the waterbike and submarine were fun to play, though.

also I didn't very much like the music in Rush either.  there were like 3 tracks that were good, but the rest was getting on my nerves.

To give it credit, I did like some of the music in SR, it has that JSR style to it. But to me, It would've been better to have a soundtrack like the old 2d sonic games. Also, ya you should play SRA somore, then we could do online matches and stuff :p

Woot finally came in from the mail. And so far, I am enjoying it more than Sonic Rush. Online versus and ranking + much bigger content = :D

SRA had great music then SR. I like SRA a little bit better then SR. I still love both games.
I love to play Mario and Sonic games with a mix of Donkey Kong and Kirby games. Yes I'm a Nintendo nerd.
