Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
Amazing soundtrack, stellar tracks, unique and fun cast of characters (with DLC, Xbox avatar and Banjo and Kazooie exclusive to the Xbox 360 version, and with the Miis exclusive to the Wii version).
66 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
This is a nice touch, as SEGA has a lot of nice music they pulled from, and changing the music can help break up the samey feeling some of the maps have with shared visuals.
27 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
While the graphics are showing its age, the gameplay is where is at, and there’s a lot of content, starting with the 20 characters from several SEGA IPs, like Alex Kidd, Fantasy Zone, Samba de Amigo, Super Monkey Ball, Space Channel 5, among others.
