i think it will have to do with sonic's birth and life up until this day
What Sonic RPG? I haven't heard of this.

there is a game that currently has no title named sonic rpg. it is being developed by bioware and is set to release 2008 on the nintendo ds. google it man
A Sonic RPG. Now that's something interesting. I hope to see that in the near future!
Create your own sonic style character?
Become a human that gets stuck in Sonic's world?

I would hate the first idea, let me just say. The second too... but more so the first one. Very, very, very rarely can you find a
slightly good Sonic OC, at least in my experience.
Let's hope it's good
A sonic rpg sounds like a great alternative for a sonic game! of course, i perfer the action stage ones...
The sonic Rpg mhh maybe you will be able to free roam the green hill Zone taking down any enemies that come your way while slowly lvling up and making your way to Dr. Robotnick!
I cant wait for this to come out
Ehh, not sure that I like the idea. RPGs need serious stories, unless it's Paper Mario or something of the sort. And knowing the way the previous few Sonic games have been, it'll probably try too hard to be serious and fail spectacularly, a-la Tales of Symphonia.
This (http://www.mgcomics.com/NFR/?ep=1188059226) is what may happen....

LOL, one of the funniest comics ive ever seen!! :D :D :D
I don't think it'll be any good, but that's what I said about Baten Kaitos. :P

i sure hope not, and nice to meet you, mr. admin! ;D
I really hope the sonic RPG will turn out like superstar sega and partners in time. Those games had really good elements, and besides, you could pull off moves with sonic like never before. Like, beating the game could let you turn super sonic in random matches. :) There could be time responses like ff7's limit breaks (remember team blasts, sonic wind, magic hands etc), and weapons could be things like extreme gear, chao gun, and other stuff like that. I have no worries, other then the fact that it might end up with eggman nega again. :(
A Sonic RPG? I'd buy that. That would be the 1st Sonic game I've bought since Sonic Heroes. I haven't played a Sonic game in awhile.
Just in! Sonic RPG will finally be revealed to the public! It was announced in the latest issue of NP that the next one would kind of tell about what this game is...so look forward to it!
The developer's BioWare I hear...
Dunno what to make of it.
i believe it's a waste of bioware's epic time.
So a battle might be like this!
BOSS!
Sonic VS. Shadow
Sonic used Spin Dash!
It missed!
Shadow used Chaos Spear!
Sonic fainted!
YOU LOSE!
The last two games had to do with 2 worlds. I like Blaze and I enjoyed both sonic rush games. I hope it could be something that involves both worlds together. As long as it has better dialog. I'm getting sick of the kiddy stuff. Even Mario does a better job.
Sorry, but I think either the new Tales of Symphonia or a Final Fantasy game will still win over something as "useless" like Sonic RPG.

Bioware founded a separate team for this game. The teams responsible for Baldur's Gate, Dragon Age, Mass Effect, KOTOR, etc. are all working on original IP's. So really, they're not wasting any time. Although why they're making the game in the first place is beyond me. After KOTOR, they stated that they would only focus on their own IP's. Then again, they also said that they'd always remain an independent developer, but then they sold out to EA. *shrugs*
ZOMG, first screenshots!!!11

Lol reminds me of ff7 more just cuz... well... Just looks like it to me. :P I don't think making sonic and co. 3d was the best idea though... They kinda look scetchy if you know what I mean. :S The backrounds are nice though.

Background.
It looks good, and the background art looks a lot similar to Sly Cooper. I think a Sonic RPG is a great idea, and I hope it's good. I like every Sonic game except Tails' Adventure on Gamegear and the educational games.

Hand drawn/picture taken (more realistic) backround is in this game along with FF7 (The characters look all polygonal but everything else looks fine) But that's all we can tell out of the early screen shots. It's just that games usually don't do that anymore.

There are quite a few games that used/still use pre-rendered or hand-drawn backgrounds. If anything, it reminds me of turn-based strategy games; they often use this background idea.
Wait... Sonic CHRONICLES?! That makes it sound like there could be a sequel. And "The Dark Brotherhood" is a bit corny...

Nope, the X360 version had achievements, downloadable content, and better controls because the PS2 and 3 controls suck in sonic games...

I haven't played the PS3/360 game, but I heard it was really bad. I've played Secret Rings and I liked it. :)

In my opinion, the Secret Rings was the worst Sonic game I've ever played. :-\ And no, I haven't played the Xbox 360/PS3 one.
Let me get back on topic. In the newest NP magazine, it talks about this game and it sounds really cool. The playable characters are Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Big, Shadow, and Rouge. I don't like Big so much, but I love all those other characters.
