Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood in new NP #1
Hey, not sure if anyone already posted about this, I just searched and didn't see anything. Feel free to lock if it's already around.

The new issue of Nintendo Power has a big 7 page feature on Bioware's Sonic RPG. I haven't given a shit about Sonic in ages, but I gotta say it looks like Bioware might do the franchise well. The graphics are really nice, all of the backgrounds have a water color look to them and they all appear hand drawn. A rather refreshing change of pace. Battles look to take place in 3D environments. I haven't read much yet but it looks like you can have up to 4 party members at a time, including dopes like Big The Cat.

Just thought you guys would like to know. Anyone want scans?

-Cover Story with nice artwork
-In game graphics have a water color look, all hand drawn
-4 party members at a time
-Each character can do certain things ex: Tails can float over things (standard stuff)
-11 party members total - 8 known are Sonic, Tails, Amy, Knuckles, Amy, Rouge, Shadow, Big the Cat
-Control done fully with stylus - think Hourglass
-Able to split party into teams at certain moments
-Rings are used as currency
-No random battles, see enemies on the field
-Turn based battles, choose commands for everyone in your party before they actually follow through. Want battles to be fast paced
-Elite Beat Agents style special attacks
-Team attacks (like Chrono Trigger)
-"Fatigue Points" instead of MP
-Choose which attributes to increase when you level up
-Purchase and level special attacks
-Bits of story - Sonic's on vacation from defeating Eggman 2 years ago. Gets a call from Tails that Knuckles has been kidnapped by a group called the Marauders, and that 6 chaos emeralds are missing. Eggman not the main villain. But Bioware wants to make him a creditable bad guy again. Something about a "twist" between Eggman and Sonic that goes back to the earlier games.
-2 acts - first takes place in standard Sonic areas. 2nd takes place in a darker world
-Remixed classic tunes
-"fully animated cut scenes"
-simple dialogue trees
-Side quests

There is also an interview with the developers which I haven't read yet. I think that's all the main info though.

when i heard about this game i thought it was an abomination, but after playing mass effect, i think a sonic game might be bioware's speed. they couldn't quite muster the talent to write a star trek pastiche, so i guess a furry fanfic is the logical step down

Yeah I know. It would have made a hell of a lot more sense if it was a Phantasy Star game. The screenshots do look better than I had anticipated, but they committed the cardinal sin of recent Sonic games: including the fucking sidekicks.

Also that dark Sonic cartoon rocked back in the day. It was a hell of alot better than the distinguished mentally-challenged instanity the other show was. I much prefer those "sidekicks" than the shit that follows Sonic now.

CurseoftheGods · « **Reply #33 on:** January 12, 2008, 02:54:19 PM »

That looks ace. Thanks Koopler!

I am looking forward to it, as I like light-hearted RPGs. I hope it doesn't take itself too seriously, as that is when Sonic becomes his worse. I hope it turns out at least as decent as Nintendo's Paper Mario titles. I trust BioWare to do a good job on the title.

bluemax · « **Reply #34 on:** January 12, 2008, 03:26:58 PM »

It looks like Mario and Luigi Partners in Time with Sonic and his shitty friends instead.
