Sonic Rush

SEGA's popular blue dude with an attitude, Sonic the Hedgehog, blasts his way onto the Nintendo DS and takes high-speed action gaming to a whole new level.Features* Play as either Sonic or Blaze the Cat * A new arch nemesis threatens the world -- Dr. Eggman times two * Fully utilizes dual screens: long steep dives across both top and bottom screens, super high jumps, huge loops and more * 2D and 3D action brings graphic depth and intense gameplay

The fastest hedgehog in the world is now pairing up with a heroine from another dimenson, Blaze the Cat. This dynamic duo heads out in search of the powerful and dangerous Sol Emeralds, to keep them from falling into the wrong hands. On their adventure, ripple effects will change the events of both worlds' inhabitants.You want speed? You've come to the right place. It's ridiculous how fast this game is. Sonic Rush takes full advantage of the dual screens on the Nintendo DS system to deliver a frantic adventure with dizzying dives, near-vertical curves, extreme jumps and brain-twisting loops. Because Sonic can move quickly from one screen to the other, keeping tags on the speedy one takes a little bit to get used to.However, once you've learned to anticipate where Sonic will end up, the gameplay is incredible and has to be mentioned as a top three all-time Sonic adventure. One thing that's always hindered Sonic's action a bit is the fear of the unknown. Are you about to run smack into an enemy at the end of your run? Sonic Rush does a phenomenal job of eliminating most of the unknowns and bringing your skills and reflexes more into play than your memory of where bad things exist.You could describe Sonic Rush as a true vertical side-scroller. This roller-coaster ride comes with everything that makes Sonic great and then some: dizzying speeds, beautifully built worlds and tough bosses.On top of that, you can race against another player with using just one game card. When you race, your run on one screen while the other keeps track on the map as to where your opponent is.Bottom Line If you're a true Sonic fan, you will own this game. For those who haven't given the series a look yet, this one will spoil you after you get out from under your rock.
