A Sonic RPG…how the hell is that going to work? That’s what I thought when I first heard about Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood. The Sonic make is in dire need of some hit games, and it looks like Sega is willing to branch out and try some new things. whether you want to take Sonic into the RPG realm, why not let some of the best guys out there handle it? BioWare is the team behind that massive undertaking. Sonic isn’t known for work in RPGs…but with his main adventures severely lost for the last few years, I think he knows that it’s date to try something new. Just learning more and more about the project has

gotten me excited. The first batch of screens that showed up in Nintendo potential got me even more hyped. The hand-drawn/cel-shaded style seemed to ooze character and charisma…two things Sonic needed to beef up. All of that culminated with my play-session of Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood.

I am not trying to kick a hedgehog when he is down, but I do have to be honest. Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood was shown off in pre-alpha form…which may not have been a good notion. I am hoping that my poor experience with the title has everything to do with the game being so early in development.
