Mean Machines Sega scored the Mega Drive version 96% overall in November 1992 and gave it its Mega Game badge; the comment signed JAZ called it faster, slicker, bigger, and much tougher than the original, so that none of the first game's criticisms applied, and another passage of the review called it nearly twice the size of the original and in places at least twice as fast.p. 63, commentpp. 60-61pp. 60-61Magazine
Mean Machines Sega's review says the first game's rotating special zones were replaced in Sonic 2 by high-speed races between Sonic and Miles down brightly colored chutes, entered with fifty rings at a Star Post.p. 60p. 60Magazine
