7 Best Underwater Levels In Video Games

1. Sonic Colours - Aquarium Park

What makes a Sonic game fun? Fast-paced platforming. What normally makes water levels the worst? Slow-paced platforming. So what happens when Sonic meets a water level? Usually levels like Labyrinth Zone from the original Sonic the Hedgehog. Bad ones, in other words.

But very occasionally we don't just get something good, we get something great.

Aquarium Park is a fantastic level because it doesn't forget what makes Sonic great. Any slowness that may come from the territory is negated with the inclusion of Yellow Wisps; they turn Sonic into a drill who will blast through the underwater areas at the speed Sonic is used to.
