Narrative:

Let me tell you a little story about what I’m going to talk about. It was winter, sometime

around Christmas and my brother wanted a game called Sonic Colors©. It had just come out, and it was around $50 to $60. We waited a few days, at least until my father got payed, then they went to Target to buy the game for him. He was really excited, and I felt that it was worth the money to get the game for him because I liked the game too. It was fun for the first week, but then the next week, he beat the story mode. That’s when I felt like the game was a waste of money, since it was so short. This is where I start my argument.

Contrast and Compare:

Video games before had original puzzles, challenging gameplay and

very creative storylines, and were worth buying for about $50 dollars. Games nowadays are either too easy, too short, or overrun with collectibles. Sonic Colors is what I’m specifically talking about, since the storyline was too easy, and it reminded me too much of other games I’ve played before.

Twist:

Sonic Colors, It had pretty cool graphics, nice colors that made it pop, and it starred one

favorite characters ever, Sonic the Hedgehog. But to me, the game was too short because when I played it, I tried to stretch the time out, so I beat it in two weeks, playing it for about an hour a day. I’d say it was a disappointment, to say that the last game, Sonic Unleashed was a lot longer than that, and I haven’t even collected any collectibles yet!
