Not my preferance but I always root for a good sonic game.



that looks pretty cool!

hopefully it has a good fighting system to match the art style and perspective.



wow, looks extremely turn-based JRPG.

some nice handdrawn background, the fixed camera angle is pretty annoying.

Interesting artstyle. Sonic and RPG's are always welcome on my DS. To have them both in one game, that's a dream come true!

This goes to my to buy list for the DS.



game looks amazing, I'll be getting it when it releases



To be honest I think it looks pretty good I wish the sceens were reversed in what appears to be the combat controlls but other then that it looks pretty good. I'm always quick to be optamistic when it comes to Sonic games. I haven't seen a truly good Sonic game in a while so this is great!

 It sort of looks like it is Sonic Shuffle inspired visualy!
