Ladies and gentlemen, start your apathy, cause Sega's revving up for another race on the PSP. All seven of you who bothered with the first one will be excited to experience the fastest Sonic game yet, with more characters, more modes, more cards, and best of all an ALL-NEW STORYLINE! Starting this fall, the fun cannot be halted!

Here's Sega's press release. They link to their press site for pix, but as far as I can tell they haven't bothered to actually put anything up. Oh snap!

Jeux France has some images up. Four shots from two zones; one is quite clearly the landscape imagery from Water Palace in Sonic Rush laid over 3D polygons, and the other is the usual chequered hill setting.

I have lost more faith in the human race.

Franchising ftl.

Lol Tails is in it.

didn't rivals 1 come out earlier this year?  or was it in late 06.  either way...this is really soon.

Sega announced another new game. I've already PMed Rolken with the details since this other game is big enough news that it should be on the site news (I used a PM since I can't make topics in the site news forum.)

[Crowbar]

What, the Happy Tree Friends game?

[Magnezone]

No, I think he means the RPG.

As said by someone on Sonic Stadium, the other level in Sonic Rivals 2 looks a lot like Sunset Hill from Sonic Advance 3, and the other level comparing them myself is indeed Water Palace. Could be an interesting trend there.

And Sonic RPG... hope it's online...

I hope it isn't; Bioware's strengths of plot and character development don't seem to lend themselves to it (yeah I know about Dragon Age, and if they pull it off I will wet myself with glee), and it'd really just be Generic Furry Adventure - I mean, not everyone could play Sonic, could they.

Quite frankly, I am peeved.  Not that there's another two games coming out, one that appears to be lame and another that could mess up badly.  But that they're both on handhelds.  Where's the PC love?
