Sonic DS is a fast paced, action packed arcade style game that is highly addictive and will very quickly become a favourite in your collection.

When you first start playing the game, you'll notice that the pace of this little critter is quite hectic. It can take a while to get used to Sonic bouncing through both the top and bottom screen but once you overcome this, you will love this game more and more every time you play it.

The controls for the Hedgehog aren't particularly difficult but do flick through the manual once or twice before you start so that you can get a handle on the special actions you can use.

The graphics are quite good with vivid colours and shading used to enhance the gaming experience. The refresh rate is also excellent so there is no lag in the imagery matching the actions you want it to do.

So should you buy this game? I would say yes because you will get your money's worth out of this game. Its addictive nature means there will be little to no chance of it getting dusty and its something that you can come back and play again and again.
