This is my review of SRB2, otherwise known as Sonic Robo Blast 2, a Sonic Fangame based off the Doom Legacy engine. I will give a list of the Pros and Cons, then give a detailed review. On with the review!
Pros
- Palette Revamp (More Colorful)
- Total revamp of Castle Eggman Zone (No more Button Hunt)
- New Zones (Deep Sea Zone, Egg Rock Zone, ect.)
- New Secret Zones (No spoilers for you)
- Tunes 120 (FUCK YES!)
Cons
- Extremely gimped character system (Characters are horridly underpowered, thanks to SMS)
- No OpenGL (Some sprites look like utter SHIT)
- Lag (Evidence: CEZ2 and DSZ1)
- EggRock's unforgiving difficulty (Expect to lose all your lives on the first attempt)
- The game is also known as Sigsegv Robo Blast 2 (It SIGSEGVs quite a bit)
Detailed Review
This is how a Sonic game should be done. It also lacks OpenGL, which sucks ass.
Must I explain more..?
-----------------------------------------
Well that's my review of Sonic Robo Blast 2, why don't you also put your reviews on this thread.

Really? It never lagged for me, and I have a really crappy computer!
My worst complaint about the game is the Difficulty Curve. It always seems to get too hard on ERZ1. Another thing is that the Final Boss seems too hard. I have no Idea on how to beat him!

[shadow=black,left,300]MASSIVE SPOILERS[/shadow]
To beat the final boss, jump onto his head a few times, and he will whack his head and do damage, another way is to jump into the missles that he launches at you, then you direct the missle towards him and jump off, therefore "riding" the missle. On the 6th hit, he will destroy the middle platform, making the missles the only way to hit him. It takes 8 hits to kill him.
His attack pattern is like this:
- Launches Bombs
- Shoots glue
- Jumps onto a random platform (if you were hit by the glue, he jumps onto you)
- Shoots glue
- Launches Missles (jump into them to ride them)
- Jumps to middle platform (if it's destroyed, then he jumps onto a random platform)
Fuck, there needs to be a Spoilers tag for this -.-

I agree with all the Pros you listed (Except I haven't checked out the Tunes 120 thing yet), but what do you mean underpowered characters? They all seemed good to me.
Also, even without OpenGL, I don't see how any of the sprites 'look like utter SHIT.'
Also, since you go on the forums you probably already know this, but EggRock Zone is a random jump in difficulty because there's gonna be more zones in before it in the final version.

Yeah, but this is the new version they released a while ago.
I think the sprites he thinks Look like shit, are the prerendered sprites, like the Eggman statue, or the Final Boss.
One more complaint, Knuckles makes alot of levels too easy.

Ah, right, forgot about the statue and final boss and stuff with the sprites.
I haven't played SP with Knuckles, just with Sonic and Tails.
Sonic I couldn't get past ECZ Act 2, and Tails I got to ERZ Act 2, but haven't bothered playing since I somehow managed to glitch myself into the wall and got crushed resulting in Game Over.
In all levels other then Egg Rock Zone, Tails is... Really cheap. Honestly, you can fly over just about anything. This basically renders levels like Arid Canyon Zone pointless.
