I've never played SA2:Battle for a long amount of time, but I agree that if you dislike 2/3 of a game, that's different from disliking 1/1000 of a game. If 2/3 of a game is "extra," then the chocolate cookies of an Oreo are "extra," and what Nabisco is actually selling you is a white creamy substance. :p
On Sonic Heroes, I thought of another way that Sonic Team might pull off the teamwork aspects: what if Sonic team combined the character switching aspects of Wind Waker with the AI-controlled team members of Chrystal Chronicles? So when you're controlling Sonic, AI controls Tales and Knuckles. But when you want to control Knuckles, you simply press a button to switch to him, and then Sonic and Tales would be handled by AI. This might make it possible to keep the pace of the game at Sonic speed.
