Review:
Packaging: If nothing else, this soundtrack has some of the best packaging
I've ever seen. It has a nice picture of the cast of the game on the front of the
case, with the track list and track lengths in a cool design on the back.
The "Hero" CD features a cool picture of Sonic, and the "Dark" CD features a cool
picture of Shadow the Hedgehog. If that wasn't enough, the soundtrack also comes
with a sticker, a poster, and a track-list/lyrics sheet with cool pictures from the
game. I would have preferred the track-list/lyrics in a booklet rather than on a
poster, but thats a minor gripe, oh, and the poster paper is really high quality.
Packaging Rating: A
Music: The music on the CD has it's ups and downs. And by "downs"
I refer mostly to the Raps from the Knuckles levels. It's not that I dislike
rap, but rap about how Knuckles is a bad ass, and looking for the Master Emerald
parts is a little lame. Aside from that, the music in the game is good, high
energy music. Some of my favorite tracks are Won't Stop, Just Go! for
Green Forest, Highway in the Sky for Final Rush, Mr. Unsmiley for
Sky Rail, and Supporting Me for the Biolizard battle. The Chao remixes are
good, happy-bouncy music and are a nice change of pace at the end of the first CD.
Music Rating: B+
CD/Track Length: The tracks are about the right length, and each CD contains
more than 75 min worth of music. All around a good job in this department.
Length Rating: B
Other Misc: Nothing much to say here, overall, the soundtrack
has a lot of energy so if you're looking for calmer stuff, look elsewhere.
Otherwise this is a good bundle of music.
Final Rating (not an average): B+
