This is (probably) the best game ever with hedgehogs and swords. You play Sonic the Hedgehog, a speedy blue character we all know and love. This true-blue hedgehog now steps into the world of King Arthur (the middle-ages)
You go around fighting knights, including 3 characters I'm sure we all love: Shadow, Knuckles, and (who else?) Blaze! The storyline is VERY fun, though slightly short-lived. They could've spent more on graphics, considering the storyline goes as slightly moving characters in the pages of a book (remember Sonic and the Secret Rings?). I won't give anything away, but let's just say it has an EPIC ending!
The game play is very different from what we've experienced before, and at first may seem a little strange and difficult. But once you get the hang of it, the storyline and multiplayer sword-fighting battle mode is really quite great!

For those of you who don't like to read, here's me overall rating:

Storyline: 9.5
Game play: 9
Graphics: 8.2
Sonic Speed!: 9
Multiplayer: 9.5

Overall, I reccomend you should at least try this game, I believe you will like it! And it is a MUST for any Sonic the Hedgehog fans out there! (such as myself) Stay true, blue dude!

If you value your free time. Let me save some of it for you. Skip this game. This is NOT Sonic. It's a game full of lame Wii waggle, and running in straight lines. I have nothing else to say about this game actually.
