Hey, I enjoyed Sonic Advance 2. I certainly liked it more than Advance 3.
Maybe I'm just sour that they relegated Tiny Chao and the [tornado fang]ing SOUND TEST to unlockables for collecting all the [tornado fang]ing Chaos Emeralds.
None of the Advance games have particularly good Special Stages, but at least 1 and 3 didn't have you collect 7 things in a stage that are annoyingly out of the way just to access the stages, which were already frustrating to play, so if you lose you have to do the same bullshit again. The fact that all the Dimps games seem to carry the same bullshit Special Stages along with them is what really bugs me though, I mean the Advance 1 Falling down a tube on a Snowboard that makes it hard to see where you're going because of shitty scaling was bad enough, but at least all you had to do was find a special spring, though if you [tornado fang]'d up you had to either finish the stage or reset because "lol no quitting from pause", AND you could do it with any character since they had a shared tally of Emeralds. Advance 2's Run around aimlessly trying to find rings was worse, made further worse by tying unlockables to the Emeralds and making the tallies seperate for each character. Advance 3's Tornado riding game in comparison wasn't so bad, and at least it had some killer music to make up for it (And you could stockpile chances at the stage by collecting lots of Keys.), and again all characters shared the emeralds. I never played Rush Adventure but Rush 1 was just Sonic 2's Halfpipe with Touchscreen gimmick, the last stage is absolutely brutal and not fun at all, but again at least they made it super [tornado fang]ing easy to get in.
Generations 3DS was just Sonic Heroes' stage recycled, already a bad special stage, but again, good music.
Sorry for overusing Spoiler tags, I wasn't sure what I should and shouldn't spoil on the game in terms of factors or opinions. Tell me if I should spoiler-tag any of this.
Eh, its not overuse if you're really not sure if something's a spoiler or not.
