Sonic the Hedgehog 2 was released on November 24, 1992, to universal acclaim. Not only did SEGA fix the pacing of the game's predecessor (every level seems just as fast paced as the last), but they got rid of what is now dubbed the "Speed Cap", meaning sometimes, Sonic can outrun the screen. A "Super Sonic Spin Dash" has also been added, which allows you to rev up in place to gain speed to climb those pesky slopes, or beat your friend Tails in a race. Oh yeah, there's multiplayer! Using the second controller port, a second player can control series newcomer Miles"Tails" Prower, a two-tailed fox who can fly... only when the AI uses him. And there is a two player Vs. Splitscreen race to the finish between Sonic and Tails! All in all, most players will probably feel the need to hunt down Dr. Ivo Robotnik and defeat him once again. But he has a new weapon up his sleeve... the obviously not insoired by Star Wars Death Egg! And don't forget to collect those rings! Collect 50 and pass a checkpoint, you'll try to win a Chaos Emerald. Collect them all for a very nice bonus from Sonic Team and Sega (mixed with a little DBZ)
