Sonic and pals in Virtua Striker 3

Sonic Team has revealed that Sega's blue mascot and other members of the cast from the two Sonic Adventure games are available as part of the so-called F.C Sonic team in the arcade game Virtua Striker 3. Sonic, Tails, Amy, Knuckles, Dr. Robotnik, and several cuddly Chao make up the team, which can be accessed if certain gameplay conditions are met while playing Virtua Striker 3. It is not known whether the squad of Sonic characters will make it into the GameCube version of Virtua Striker 3 as hidden characters. The GameCube version is currently in development at Sega's Amusement Vision development studio and was recently shown in video form at last month's E3 in Los Angeles.
