description
Sonic brings his trademark speed and attitude to the Wii™ in his first solo adventure since 1991. In Sonic and the Secret Rings, Sonic finds himself in the colorful and vibrant world of the Arabian Nights tales. There he embarks on his most outrageous journey to date through an expansive 3D world brought to life with realistic water reflections, light bloom, and lifelike physics.
Sonic and the Secret Rings makes custom use of the innovative Wii remote to create a truly immersive gaming experience. Mimicking the energy and movements of Sonic, players actively perform specialized moves with the controller, bringing their stamina and wide range of motion into the action! Players will hurtle Sonic forward by rotating the controller from side to side and perform combo moves with a flick of the wrist. This, combined with a dizzying sense of speed, will quickly draw players of all ages into the action!

NO!! buying this game has to be the bigges twaste of money ever. where should i begin?
- terrible controls. sonic moves by himself and all you do it jump turn and attack. when you want to move back wards (which you will a lot because the controls are so annoying that you miss a lot of things) you have to bring the wii remote to your chest, which the game takes very long to respond to and the camera doesnt even adjust for it so you have no idea where youre going
- new terrible idea: skill rings which are things you acquire to put on yourself for certain powerups like RPG... you can only put on a certain amount at a time
- multiplayer is terrible. minigames which have had no thought put into them.
- very very corny story. and the movies arent even movies. they are pictures with voices.
- the recently typical "trying to be cool"ness in sonic games has gone way too far this time. from the music to the flaming menu.
- in story mode, you constantly have to go back to old missions, where the game forces you to rewatch the old movies which, if you actually LIKE the story, mixes everything up.
i may be sounding very complainy, but let me tell you. since i paid 50 bucks for this game, i have tried numerous times to get myself to like it, and it hasnt worked once. i always end up shutting it off.
stick to sonic sidescrollers on the DS. they are the only thing the sonic team is doing right these days
finally, i would give it one star, but the graphics are quite good

sonic team good idea, but the sonic team, needs to go back to making 2d sonic games.
