-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 - 7 known are Sonic, Tails, Amy, Knuckles, 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

Yeah, there goes any chance the story won't be a huge turd.

Agreed. Dark Brotherhood? Pfft...it's Sonic, what kind of brotherhood could they have? :lol The story sounds like a fanfiction. :lol

Which pretty much answers the question, "How many hedgehogs does it take to ruin a Sonic game?" Answer: 2 more...Silver and Shadow XD

I'm actually pretty surprised. The look of the game is basically Baldur's Gate with cartoony graphics.

Too bad the story will be crap. :-\

Sonic's never been about the story. Come on. Mario's the same way. :lol

Mario RPG's are kinda ok with the story. I just don't see what they can do with Sonic's crappy friendship stories.

On the contrary, Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 were praised. Not because of the story, but because of the game play. And...Sonic Adventure 3? There wasn't a Sonic Adventure 3.

But that's ok. You guys think what you want. I'm getting this for the game play. 8)
 
woah i meant to type shadow the hedgehog

and actually sonic adventure 1 and 2 had mixed reviews, mainly on the negative side of things due to slippery gameplay, jagged graphics and severe frame rate issues

It's one of the best series for the Dreamcast and was widely wanted, hence why they ported it to the Cube. But, like I say, to each their own. 8)
