This is gonna be epic! Bioware are very good at what they do, mass effect, kotor, thier skills at building interesting rpg style action games is beyond that of most. Not since Super Mario rpg have i been this excited!

Wow. I'm not really a Sonic fan but this is far better than I ever thought it would be. Looks really good, actually.

all the previous sonic games had decent graphics, but lacked solid gameplay.

sonic hasnt shown us anything interesting on the console front since the sega genesis/mega drive days. the ONLY good sonic games since then have been the sonic advance / rush. Tho since its bioware there is SOME hope that this may be a decent game.

is it suddenly N-Europe policy to take others property and write it off as their own? I'm off course referring to the logo on all the screenshots.

Wouldn't that be illegally using copyrighted material otherwise owned by JEUXFRANCE?

But why do they have to involve Sonic at all in this game? A character with as much deep as a broom.

@ Nooryani84

How are they writing it off as their own? It says at the bottom the source.

Thanks ReZ.

We sourced Jeux-France so you can see where they originally came from. I'd have understood you if I'd have just stolen the screens and not provided a source.

They're scans - Jeux-France stole them from Nintendo Power...

We sourced them, and they're unwatermarked by Jeux-France, and we only did it so if others take them from here, they know where they're from.

This game shows potential. Some might say Square-Enix, but in my opinion it's BioWare that is by far the best RPG developer out there. And it's especially satisfying to see them develop a game for a Nintendo console. I hope this will be the first of many.

Looks epic. The question will be as to how they maintain the sense of speed, and if that's not the plan, weather sonic can pull it off.

Just to add to what The Fish said, Jeux-France are also our sister site, we're both owned by AMN.

I'm most relieved by the loop-the-loop.
Its only by maintaining the action/exploration aspex that this game will work.

Thats why the mario games worked so well.
SuperStarSaga/Paper Mario kept the action and mixed rpg into it.
As much as I like Buldars Gate and Neverwinter, I dont want a game like that with sonic charecters pasted over them.

Right boo?

Nathan, The fish - OK, nice to know. I'm sorry if i came off as agressive, I just believe it's important to protect other publications' property.
