These gravity-altering powers can transform walls into tracks, or create a "black hole" that sucks you through for the ultimate speed boost, creating an entirely new way to gain a leg up on your competitors. From illuminated highways in a bustling metropolis to the outer reaches of space, you will race at the speed of light on 16 dynamic courses. Sixty different vehicles allow you to grind rails and pull off daring tricks on futuristic tracks, including solar loop-de-loops, height-defying vertical drops and tons of other edge-of-your-seat moves. As Sonic or one of 18 colorful characters, you will compete with up to three friends at heart-stopping speeds in three exciting multiplayer modes. With all the action, speed, and addictive gameplay that only Sonic can deliver, Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity is set for hyper-drive!

The Same Game with too Much Cramming

The original Sonic Riders was okay, fine, run-of-the-mill; in other words don't expect anything special unless your willing to complete the entire game as Sonic Riders is very unfairly difficult.
Zero-G doesn't make things any easier with the added element of gravity control which adds more difficulty to an already difficult game, you have to practically play as well as the person who designed the game to complete it.
The story isn't really imaginitive either, it sounds like a cartoon series that's meant to sell a popular toy, which isn't made any better by the mediocre voice actors.
I'd only recommend the good graphics but with so many bad gameplay elements already it doesn't really save itself from certain doom.
Surfing towards excellence

Just to let you know in case you've read other reviews on this page but I'm not related to anyone promoting nintendo and I am not even a mega sonic fan but this game ticks all the boxes for graphics and playability. As you get into it you learn how to make the most of each track and they all provide something to challenge you. Great for story board play as well as for free play racing.
