Summary: Difference between this and the Dreamcast version
Comment: This review is will ONLY tell you the DIFFERENCE between the gamecube version and the dreamcast version so if you never played this game before, please don't waste your time reading this review as I made this review for the people who played the dreamcast version as well. Anyways lets get started shall we?
List of different things in this version.
1) Graphics: this version's graphics are far more superior than the dreamcast's version. The landscapes which include the waterfall and the grass area in the Mystuic Ruins are more releastic. In addition to that the train looks different and the hotel which is located in Station Square has a red carpet which makes you feel that you are entering this hotel as if you were doing so in real life. The levels graphics are also superior where I can hardly describe it. Youtube the gamecube version and you will notice the difference yourself when playing this version.
2) Sound quality: I'm really disappointed with the sound as you can hardly hear what the characters are talking about while your playing the game, as the music is far more louder than the character's talkings. I also noticed a difference in the music when you play through the levels. This version's sound is better than the dreamcast's version, however, the dreamcast's version music is more beautiful.
3) Controls: same as the dreamcast version so there's nothing to add here.
4) Camera: The dreamcast's camera angel is better than this version's camera, however, in this version you can choose between auto to free camera.
5) Story mode: Story mode remains the same, nothing changes unless couple of words from characters which I shall give examples in the near future.
6) Game speed: I was really impressed by the loading speed of this version. In the dreamcat version you had to wait like 60 seconds to load from Station Square to Mystic Ruins, however, in this version if you count only to 5, then the loading will be finished!!!
7) Changes: I will add the chao features changes later when I have the time.
FAQs:
1) Would you recommend this version or the dreamcast version?
Absolutly this version! The graphics and game speed are far superior than the dreamcast version. In addition to that when you raise your chao and hit him a lot, he will not die likme the dreamcast version.
2) Why did you buy this version when you had the dreamcast version?
My dreamcast has exploded over 2 times and I do not wish to purchase a 3rd console so that it will explode on me again over time so I decided to give it a try with this version and boy!! I'm so glad I bought it!

Summary: An Overall Good Game
Comment: I think that this game is one of my favorites. It provides plenty of action and enough difficulty to keep you playing all night. You can play first as Sonic and later on as Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Big and Gamma. Sonic, Tails and Knuckles stories I think are great, but Amy, Big and Gamma stories were too short and only took me 1 hour to finish. Once you finish all 6 characters you can play as Super Sonic and finish the game. It is pretty easy though, which is good for younger kids. Older ones will finish it quick, but still have a good time playing it.

Summary: Sonic Adventure DX got panned by critics... So What!
Comment: I first played Sonic Adventure in 2000 on my Dreamcast. Loved the new style of sonic games and for its time, it was revolutionary. And so I bought this game just last week, mind you the last two games I purchased were Mario Galaxy and Super Smash Brothers and I had to compare them at least unconsciously.
Here is what I noticed, the camera angle sucks. It is shaky and all over the place. Some of the levels feel that more could have been added so that they could feel "tighter".
That out of the way, the character recreation is amazing. I like the personalities and different abilities of each character is given, the music is upbeat, and to say a long story short, it was hard to put down the controller. While Mario Galaxy I find it difficult to get more than 3 stars a day and want to go on... but then again that is me.
This game is rated as one of the lowest gamecube games and because of it I feel alot of people have been missing out on a flawed classic. Just to let you know, all of the games I buy I feel are excellent and so I've shoved this game in my dresser next to Metroid Prime and the Ocarina and Master Quest games.

Summary: I had a ton of fun with this.
Comment: I was so surprised with this game because it got such a low score here but I have to say that I had a lot of fun with it. The graphics aren't amazing, but they aren't bad either. In fact, they are rather colorful which in my opinion makes it seem less stressful and therefore more fun. Sonic retains his 2D speed rather well here, making it still feel like Sonic and not a Mario ripoff. There is a very solid frame rate that keeps the action going smooth. The game isn't ridiculously hard, but has a steady difficulty curve to keep you interested. The levels are varied, well designed, and loads of fun. There is a ton of replay value here, with the chao garden and multiple characters with their own story lines. There are some negatives with this game though. The music for one, is terrible. The cut scenes are pretty annoying but I continue to laugh when they talk because their foreheads move with their mouths. Not to mention the mouths keep moving but no words come out, like a bad dubbing. If you haven't played the Dreamcast version and you enjoy platformers, you should definitely give this a go.

Summary: What happened?
Comment: I remember playing this on the Dreamcast back in the day as well as the second in the series. I sold the Dreamcast when they stopped making them and stopped making games for the system to purchase another system of some kind at the time. I regretted never finishing the game completely and really liked the Sonic Adventure games. This turd is not the original game it once was however! I would think that re-releasing a game on a newer platform should IMPROVE the title, but apparently Sonic team didn't see improvement as absolutely necessary. The camera is wonky and the controls aren't nearly as smooth as they were with the Dreamcast's controller. The graphics have not been improved much if any at all, and the one thing a sonic game has going for it, speed, gets interrupted frequently because of the twitchy controls forcing you to get stuck on a wall in the middle of a big loop or something and you go from 60-0 suddenly. If you have never played the original on the Dreamcast, then this may be worth a rent if you really really must play it, but keep in mind that the original was a groundbreaking eye-popping fun experience and this barely passes as fun! If you ever played the Dreamcast version, there is nothing significantly different here, so don't waste your money.
