Sonic Ultimate All-Stars Brawl

Sonic Ultimate All-Stars Brawl is a fighting game that contains all of your favorite Sonic the Hedgehog all-stars based on an inspiration of Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale. This unique fighting game, however, has a concept that hasn't been around since about 2005-2006: health bars in 4-player fighting games. Also, this is the second fighting game of the Sonic the Hedgehog category since 1996 when Sonic the Fighters came around. This game will probably release sometime in late April-early May for the Wii, PS3, and PS Vita.
== Characters==
Since there are no unlockables as far as characters go, here is the list of characters:
*Sonic the Hedgehog
*Miles "Tails" Prower
*Knuckles the Echidna
*Amy Rose
*Shadow the Hedgehog
*Rouge the Bat
*E-123 Omega
*Espio the Chameleon
*Vector the Crocodile
*Silver the Hedgehog
*Blaze the Cat
*Emerl
*Chaos 0
*Metal Sonic
*Dr. Eggman
*Wreck-It Ralph
== Adventure Mode==
This is kind of like the "heart" of the story in the game. Adventure Mode contains the average Sonic the Hedgehog plot; Eggman tries to create Eggmanland with some crazy resource, so Sonic and the rest of the gang has to stop his evil scheme and save the day once again. This time, you're getting the experience in fighting-game-form! Almost like most fighting games, along the way you'll face many character battles and mini-bosses.
==Arcade Mode==
Like all fighting games, there is always an Arcade Mode! This is where the PSASBR inspiration comes in: rivals. Mid-game, you'll encounter a rival that depends on what character you are. Here is the list of all Arcade Mode rivalries:
*Sonic vs. Tails
*Knuckles vs. Rouge
*Amy Rose vs. Chaos 0
*Shadow vs. Metal Sonic
*Espio vs. Silver
*Vector vs. Emerl
*Omega vs. Blaze
*Ralph vs. Eggman
This list may be kind of strange, but as you watch the rival cinematic, it'll make since.
==Gameplay==
Previously, the gameplay is inspired by Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale , with 4-player action and health bars which are indicated by Rings (similar to Sonic the Fighters). You also have specials, directional specials, and a super special in which are activated by the 1 button (Wii) and triangle (PS3, PS Vita). Super specials are activated by collecting a Chaos Emerald in a similar way that you obtain a Smash Ball in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. All of the other specials are inspired by SSBB as well.
==Editor's Final Verdict==
In my opinion, this will be a nice addition to the Sonic franchise and I hope this and my other games will persuade SEGA not to give Sonic a reboot in 2014. (This is my very first article too!)
