I was hoping this would have turned out well.

Guess we'll keep playing Sonic Mega Collection Plus for a while longer.

Yeah I thought Riders was pretty awful, sorry. My little brothers have it for their Xbox. They said it wasn't too bad once you figure out the controls, which takes about 8 hours. Really, that's what they said. A game that takes 8 hours to figure out how to move doesn't translate to a good game to me. If you want to play a good racing game that is like Sonic Riders, pick up Kirby's Air Ride for the Cube. It's so much better. I like Kirby's Air Ride better than Mario Kart: Double Dash! --Cary

ONE AND A HALF STARS!!!

Wow ... I know you had mentioned how bad it was before, but this hits a pretty low level! My older son was determined that he wanted this - and I told him I was hearing bad things. He read the review and though ... good thing I saved my money!

Wow. That's scary. And I'll second the Kirby's Air Ride recommendation. Way too much fun.

I think the controls are THE issue with the game-I got a demo- I liked the whole air race gimmick with the wakes & carving & stuff- but echo the control issues

Thanks for the review. My son has been looking at this one. Once we looked at your comments, he moved it to the "maybe if it is on deep discount" list.
