Sonic returns to the DS with Sonic Rush 2

Sonic Returns to DS with Sonic Rush Adventure

, 04/16/2007
Sprinting from a chasing orca was fun on the Dreamcast almost 10 years ago, but Sonic Team's made a strong argument that Sonic and friends aren't suited for 3D. Gamers pining for something a little more nostalgic should be happy to know Sega's green lit a sequel to the surprisingly well-received (and 2D, mind you)

Sonic Rush Adventure arrives sometime this fall with the ****c side-scrolling gameplay, and so far it doesn't seem to be shoving in a bunch of playable side-characters. It's all about Sonic, baby, and this version even incorporates support for Nintendo's Wi-Fi Connection, allowing players to compete in racing and mission gameplay modes online.

The boss battles are still fought in a pseudo-3D environment, however, and Sega says the touch screen elements will be increased this time around. Most likely they're referring to the vehicles that Sonic and Tails will be piloting in-between stages, as they track down a series of pirates that are causing trouble for Sonic's buddies.

I'm glad to hear that Sonic Team recognizes that their blue icon hasn't been running too well in 3D. So seeing this news is a good sign that we'll be getting more quality Sonic games the way it used to be. Sonic Rush was the best Sonic game since Sonic Adventure on the Dreamcast so this sequel should be just as good.

I can't get the last Chaos Emerald either!!!! Sorry for double posting.:cry:m1k3m

lol. That emerald took me alot of tries to get. Hopefully the sequel will be just as good as the first one(or even better). 

Yeah, Sonic Rush was teh best Sonic Game in almost a decade, lets hope the can do an even better job with a sequel

 ....lets just hope they stray from the "Power of Friendship" Blaze Bullcrap, that tainted it a little bit

Nice. Good news.

Yeah... took me forever to get the last emerald. 

Here is a different site with some more info.

Could it be in 3D? 

It was really a matter of when rather than if.

^^I'm sure it will be better as long as it doesn't have the darn Chaos Emeralds so hard to get. God I hate those stupid rocks sometimes.:evil:m1k3m

the Rush emeralds were a perfect difficulty, challenging but not impossible. The emeralds in Sonic Advance 2 and 3 were just painful to try to get.

hope thay have that awesome music again.thisguy51

awesome music? god i wanted to kill sega for that soundtrack! the only good music was the pyramid level but..... everyone has their opinion.

Sonic Rush getting a sequel is fine and all, but that doesn't let Sega off the hook just yet.  What they need to make is a proper 3D console Sonic that gets full developmental attention from a competent team.  They need to make a game that'll shut the 2D purists and the whiners up for good.  They need to do it.  'Til then, this game will be at least a decent time killer.
