Sonic and Sega all-star racing - Does anyone remember Billy Hatcher
Following in the form of the classic, imitated, but never bettered, Mario Kart, Sonic and the Sega all-star racing brings together characters from the Sonic franchise and other Sega classic characters to race like maniacs. While the weapons are a little on the lacklustre side when compared to Mario Kart, or Diddy Kong Racing for that matter, but it’s definitely the best kart racer outside of world Nintendo, giving PS3 and Xboxers a decent option in the genre.
Playable characters include Sonic (obviously), Billy “bloody” Hatcher, Tales, Shadow and I’ll always call him Doctor Robotnik. Other genius entrants include the monkey from Super Monkey Ball, Amigo from Samba De Amigo and Alex Kidd. Banjo and Kazooie are Xbox 360 exclusive characters and then there’s Mii action of the Wii. Sadly ToeJam and Earl didn’t make it through the negotiations.
Easy to play, great for multi-player action and class for online racing, Sonic and Sega all-star racing is perfect for Mario Kart envy ridden PS3 & Xbox owners, but if you’ve got a Wii, it’ll come down to how deep your love us for the Sega characters of yore.
