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

The voice actors... not the greatest

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
