    Sonic #100 Spoilers

    Sonic 100 Preview Cover Written by Karl Bollers and Ken Penders, art by Ron Lim, Jim Amash and Penders.

    "Reunion." Sonic and Princess Sally reunite for the first time since Sonic was divested of his knighthood, but it's not quite what the heroic hedgehog had in mind. Ironically, it all takes place in that mechanized metropolis of Robotropolis, but that's not the most shocking surprise: the bittersweet reunion is made even more so by the loss of one of Knothole's own. Plus: another Knuckles back-up story. The recent exploits and intrigue of Knuckles collide in one combustible story, as Knuckles faces off against Dimitri and the Dark Legion. The fact of literally everyone on Mobius hangs in the balance, not to mention Knuckles' family and friends, helplessly trapped in another zone.

    32 pages, $1.99, ships on July 27.

    The Real Truth About Sonic Epoch



    Hold on there Rangoonth, the Sonic Epoch game is NOT complete, but simply had some modifications to it. There is only one extra level since the last demo, but a few levels have been modified.


    There are new cut scenes and some characters have changed dramatically. Knuckles has been replaced with someone who just plain makes more sence, Tails is much vulger (much more, sensitive players are cautioned), Snively is a bit more sadistic and Sonic 2 has been completely remodled. Many more surprises included a brank spankin' new soundtrack.

    For those of you who don't want to listen to Tails swear or see scenes with gore, it's cool, you can download. A censor has been installed just for you :) So download at: http://sonicepoch.cjb.net and enjoy

    SA2 Screens

    Ruliweb.com has released new SA2 screenshots. And apparently Tails is in it, Rouge and Shadow are playable, and there's a two player mode. Have a look.

    Sonic vs. Shadow

    Tails vs. Eggman

    Knuckles vs. Rouge (maybe Rouge is after the emeralds for jewelry!)

    A better look at Rouge

    Thanks to Zeefay for the tip.

    Additional SA2 Info

    IGNDC has a new report out on Sonic Adventure 2:

    And for the good boys and girls, we have new details on what could end up being the best Dreamcast game yet, Sonic Adventure 2.

    In Sonic 1, it was Sonic versus Robotnick.

    In Sonic 2, it was Sonic versus Mecha Sonic.

    In Sonic 3, it was Sonic versus Knuckles.

    And now, in Sonic Adventure 2, Sonic Team has decided to go way crazy with the rivalry thing. It seems that everyone will have a rival in this game. Sonic has a rival in Shadow, a new character. Knuckles has a rival in Rouge, also a new character. And, according to Japanese Dreamcast website Dreamcast Station, Tails will find his rival in Robotnik. This could be first "unofficial" confirmation that Tails will actually be playable in the game, although we ain't sayin' nothin' for sure.

    The game's story will focus on what's called the Hero Side versus the Dark Side, apparently emphasizing these rivalries. Even the Chao characters can have Hero/Dark attributes. The story will come in two forms, and what we've read makes us believe that one storyline will have you play as the good guys (Sonic, Knuckles and Tails) and the other storyline will have you play as their rivals (Robotnik, Shadow and Rouge). This later part is conjecture on our part based off what we've read though, so don't be surprised if the final product is different.

    Depending on the character you play as, the game will take on one of three different forms. For Sonic (and possibly Shadow), the game will be best described as a 3D Action title. For Knuckles (and possibly Rouge), the game will be best described as a Rare game - err, I mean - a Treasure Hunting title. For Tails and Robotnik, the game will be best described as an Action Shooter.

    Included somewhere in these various game genres is a two player mode. Split screen? Online? Or is Sonic Team approaching the two player mode messy like they did with Sonic 2? We expect to find out soon.
