Game Dev makes Sonic the Hedgehog --> PSO --> Sonic Adventure --> this game --> then goes to jail. Yes, that describes this game well. |

I got the platinum trophy while dealing with a flooded apartment in Japan. Enjoyed collecting all the fish in this game and loved the gameplay loop. It starts a bit hard, but gets too easy later in the game. I didn't expect some horror elements, so that caught me off guard, but overall a nice gem worth trying! |

Played it a bunch on a PowerMac G5 back around 2015. My best memory of this game is the Main Menu music. |

Played online during a Dreamcast game night. The lag was so so bad, due in part to a 33kbps modem over WiFi and being in Japan, but none the less had fun. Also wanted to play this game online at least once in my life, so I'm happy I got to experience it! |

Yes, I bought this crap since my friend Nate insisted on it. Basically plays a little like Quake. While the graphics (and environments), controls, and network programming were great, charging $40 for the amount of content was a rip off. Probably did it so that if it was popular, then locking people to pay for a PS subscription to play was a huge money bonus down the line. Also the character models were not really cool and generic. |

I finished the first game, but I don't think I 100% completed everything in the 1st game, but now I can start playing the second one. At least I don't have to look for sunlight to play this unlike the GBA version. |

My aunt had a copy of DreamSNES for the Dreamcast and that's how I played this gem. The emulator on the Dreamcast ran at around 15fps and stuttered a lot. But I was a kid and getting care, the game was that good I just kept playing. I'll play it again on the Switch in Japanese next time since I forgot a lot about it. Also, AVGN did a video on this game and it's definitely one of his best! |

I loved the first one so much, my aunt bought it for me under one condition. That I walk to Circuit City to get it. It was a four hour walk, but it was worth it. I bought lots of Neo Tanks. |

My aunt bought this game for herself at Disc Replay in Skokie, and one boring summer day I tried it out and instantly fell in love. I remember leaning near a window in the kitchen for sunlight and playing all day. |
