Abstract: Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I is designed to recreate the classic platforming action of Sonic 1-3 much the same way Mega Man 9 and 10 did for Capcom's famous series. Sonic 4 comes close to accomplishing that objective, but its new graphics and basic ...
Fantastic platform gaming, great graphics, nostalgic fun doesn’t feel dated.
ole. But fans of the series won’t want to miss this. It’s both nostalgic and fresh, and will likely have you fondly recalling your own Sonic stories as you play. Hopefully, they involve comfortable seating and a decent meal. Site [Sonic the Hedgehog 4, Episode 1]

Visuals faithfully recreate the look of the original Sonic games, The homing attack is a fun and effective addition to Sonic's repertoire, Some fun level design lets you put Sonic's speed to great use.
Poor boss fights range from dull and easy to dull and frustrating, Some bad level design brings things to a standstill, Overly ruthless about chaos emeralds, Encourages you to play one stage again and again to get extra lives.
