“3D Sonic games suck” is perhaps the oldest, moldiest chestnut in gaming. It also isn’t particularly true. Sure, the chili-dog-scarfing hedgehog has suffered his share of embarrassing missteps in recent years, but the bad has been more than balanced out by solid titles like Sonic Colors, Sonic Lost World, and the nearly-great Sonic Generations. And yet, every new 3D Sonic title is still greeted with a queasy mixture of dread and bloodlust. How bad will the game be, and, more importantly, who can eviscerate it most savagely?

Enter Sonic Forces. The latest 3D Sonic adventure is in a particularly tough spot, as it follows only three months after Sonic Mania, a well-received throwback to the hedgehog’s unsullied Sega Genesis heyday (check out our review here). Ironically, the far more technically-advanced Sonic Forces now comes off as the dated product. Is there still a place in the race for 3D Sonic games? Or is Sonic Forces blasted by the past?
