Are you a good hedgehog or a bad hedgehog? Either way, you'll have a blast playing Sega's Sonic Adventure 2: Battle, available exclusively for Nintendo GameCube.
The very first game to take advantage of the Nintendo GameCube - Game Boy Advance Link, Sonic Adventure 2: Battle features 12 playable characters from the Sonic universe and more than 150 missions. It's one of the most impressive games to hit Nintendo GameCube!
When the game begins, you get to decide whether to help Sonic save the world or assist Dr. Eggman in destroying it. If you opt to join Sonic and fight with the good guys, you'll control three different characters throughout your quest: Sonic, Tails and Knuckles. Evildoers get to guide Shadow, Rouge and Dr. Eggman (previously known to Sonic enthusiasts as Dr. Robotnik). It doesn't really matter which quest you decide to conquer first, because you'll definitely want to play through both scenarios.
With so many characters to control, Sonic Adventure 2: Battle offers great gameplay variety. Sonic's missions primarily consist of either battling bosses or running full-bore through insane obstacle courses. Living up to his reputation, Sonic races through these stages at a speed which puts most racing games to shame. Constantly changing challenges and engrossing cinema scenes make this game one of the most polished products to hit the market.
Sonic Adventure 2 was originally released for Sega Dreamcast, but the Battle edition offers great new features like a souped-up two-player Battle Mode and an expanded Chao Garden. Chao are cute little creatures, which are very similar to virtual pets. As you progress through the Story Mode, you can pick up Chao power-ups and lost animals. If the Chao Key is found in that stage, you'll go to the Chao Garden when the stage is completed. In the garden, you can pet your Chao and give them the power-ups, which you found throughout the stage. By carefully choosing which power-ups to give your Chao, you can grow a Chao with customized strengths.
Using the Nintendo GameCube - Game Boy Advance Link, you can move your Chao back and forth between Sonic Advance for Game Boy Advance and Sonic Adventure 2: Battle. There is a Tiny Chao Garden in Sonic Advance where you can feed your Chao and play minigames to earn rings. When you return home, you can transfer your Chao and rings directly back to the Chao Garden in Sonic Adventure 2: Battle. It's really cool to watch your Chao change from 3D to 2D and back again! In addition to Chao Racing and Chao Karate mini-games, there are many other ways for two players to duke it out in Sonic Adventure 2: Battle. Battle Modes include Kart Racing, Action Race Battles (running and grinding), Treasure Hunting and Shooting Battles. There are many more playable characters available in the Battle Modes, including Metal Sonic, Tikal, Chaos Zero and more.
Without a doubt, Sonic Adventure 2: Battle contains enough action and special features to keep you busy for a very, very long time.
