Sonic mutated into a creature when the sun goes down.... sounds sappy, but they managed to pull this off nicely.

Sonic and Eggman are having there final showdown, in space, at the beginning of this game. Sonic eventualy uses the power of the Chaos Emeralds to even the odds. Sonic looks as though he has won, but in a clever trick, Eggman manages to capture Sonic and drain all the power from the Chaos Emeralds. During this event 2 things happen, Eggman fires a black beam at the planet and splits it into 7 large chunks: This unleashes a strange creature known as Dark Gaia. The other is that while the cannon fires, Sonic undergoes a transformation. His muscles get larger, hads get bigger, fur becomes more darker and rough, and to top it off his teeth turn into fangs. Introducing Sonic the Werehog. Eggman ejects Sonic back to earth, along with the usless Chaos Emeralds. When Sonic lands, he finds a young character who cannot remeber who he is. Sonic promises to help him regain his memory. Sonic calls him Chip, due to Chip's obsession with ice cream.

Character Bio's

Sonic- Leading man. Blue hedgehog that runs very, very fast. He has delt with Eggman in the past before. Sonic never doubts himself no matter what the situation is. He is also very loyal to his friends. He jumps into the most dangerous areas with little consideration of the danger.

Chip- A strange, you.....Chao looking thing. Chip is as annoying as a 9 year old boy who thinks he can fight well. Later in the game, you find out he can, no more spoilers now. Chip loooooves to eat, you can buy food from shops and feed it to him. He will give you things when you give him all of the food from one area.

Sonic the Werehog- Sonic's other form. Sonic's mood is no different than when he is in his normal form. Werehog is strong, focuses on Melee attacks. He is also much slower then his daytime form.

Eggman- Villan that has a HUGE ego. Eggman is a robot-crazed weirdo who is bent on dominating the world. He and Sonic have fought in the past, but he was always stopped due to his stupid mistakes. Eggman always thinks he has the upper hand.... just proves how arrogant he is.


Good points of the game:
The storyline is pretty good, but could be touched up. Playing as daytime Sonic is fun, keeps you on the edge of your seat. Werehog is easy, just hit and slap, you should be good. Combat system is easy to use. Boss fights are fun. Kept the comedy in the game.

Bad points of the game:
When playing as Sonic, you sometimes have about half a second before you go falling to your death, or start a large portion of the track over again. Werehog has this neat ability, when an enemy is at low health, you can preform a special attack. You press B when you are near them, then you usually have to press a few buttons in time to complete it. The bad thing about this, is that it is hard to finish a big enemy otherwise, and later in the game you have an extremly short time to hit the button. If you miss, your enemy regains some health, and you lose a small amount.

Overall this is a good game, just plain fun to play. You only see two other classic characters. The first is Tails (of course). The second is the worst....Amy shows up and she is as annoying as ever. Peace out.
