Reviews around moment (5.00 of 5)

  • While Sonic Riders has enough cool moments to be somewhat interesting, it falls short in too many areas to be worthwhile
  • The exciting moments and cool concept can't save it from its lack of control, shortness, and many frustrations
  • The gameplay has some exciting moments, namely while performing flips and spins in midair, which are executed with simple tilts of the control stick

Reviews around animate (5.00 of 5)

  • Now this seems like a cool idea, as you can catch up to opponents easier by riding his or her turbulence.
  • Now this seems like a cool idea, as you can catch up to opponents easier by riding his or her turbulence.
  • In the rare CG cutscene, however, the visuals are very sharp, and look about as good as an animated movie (although nowhere near Pixar quality, of course).Still, during the cutscenes it doesn't really matter how good they look because of the dreadful storyline and horrible voice acting, which brings us to the area of sound
  • moments+ Survival Mode is pretty solid+ animated cutscenes look greatNegative:- TERRIBLE story starring even worse voice acting- outrageously short story (although that can be a good thing, too)- very few courses- no real sense of speed- too many things can happen that are out of your control- pit stopsTHE FINAL VERDICT: Sonic Riders has a cool concept and some fun moments, but that can't save it from the lack of control, general shortness, and plethora of frustrations

Reviews around racer (5.00 of 5)

  • Officially one of my favorite racers on the game cube
  • Now this seems like a cool idea, as you can catch up to opponents easier by riding his or her turbulence.
  • Boosting barely increases your speed for more than a second, turning is a serious pain, you have to take pit stops, and riding turbulence (caused by other racers' boosts) causes too many frustrations that are out of your control

Reviews around sonic (3.61 of 5)

  • Sonic is made fun of mercilessly by the annoying Jet the Hawk, whose voice cracks every 3 syllables, for being SLOW, of all things
  • A fun Sonic game I played way back when it first came out
  • Sonic is among the older franchises in games, and also the more beloved, famous, and unpredictable
  • Despite a few flaws Sonic Riders is a decent game for the Nintendo Gamecube

Reviews around riders (3.53 of 5)

  • As far as Riders is concerned, it's just so-so
  • Despite a few flaws Sonic Riders is a decent game for the Nintendo Gamecube
  • This game is alot better than Shadow The Hedgehog, and Sega doesn't lie when they said that this game has adrenaline, so I recommend Sonic Riders.
  • The game (in my opinion) is better than Sonic Riders Zero Gravity

Reviews around graphic (3.44 of 5)

  • As far as the graphics are concerned, the tracks are very akin to the game F-Zero GX, which was also developed by Sega.
  • Now this seems like a cool idea, as you can catch up to opponents easier by riding his or her turbulence.
  • The most poor graphics of the game I have seen, are in the short tid bits that are between levels.
  • The graphics and the courses for the game are extremely wild, but also takes some familiarity towards F-Zero GX which Sega helped Nintendo create and develop a few years ago
  • The graphics as always are pretty cool and i love watching sonic do his spinning throughout the game.

  • Fun gameplay, great cartoony graphics, good soundtrack, and a lot of extra modes to keep you busy long after beating the Story Modes

Reviews around race (2.94 of 5)

  • Normal Race is where the player can do a free race (1p-4p),Time Attack(1p only), and World Grand Prix(avaliable after story mode is complete).
  • The races are mildly exciting as you perform cool tricks and boost your way through the game's 7 courses, or 14 if you count the juiced up night versions of each
  • I can't tell you how many times I lost a race because I hit a
  • I was so relieved when I finished the races, only to realize I had another, harder race ahead
  • Now this seems like a cool idea, as you can catch up to opponents easier by riding his or her turbulence.

Reviews around control (1.00 of 5)

  • Even though it can be helpful, this is; however, one of the awkward controls, because if it is not used correctly it can mess you up.
  • What I think is the worst control, however, is the turbulence.
  • The controls are really annoying, especially the air system
  • The other awkward controls, include the tricks themselves.

Reviews around voice (1.00 of 5)

  • The story is so not Sonic-like, has so many ridiculous plot holes, and is so totally unfitting to a racing game that it's just a pain to watch, and the absolutely DREADFUL voice acting drags it even lower
