BioWare's Sonic RPG Now Available for DS

Filed in archive Nintendo DS on October 1, 2008

Sonic the Hedgehog has had some rought times, but it is undeniable that he remains a bankable IP. To that end, Sega has been working hard in recent years to reinvent the franchise, to put him back on equal footing with Mario.

Sonic: The Dark Brotherhood is the most off the wall attempt yet, an RPG made by BioWare, the current heavyweight champion of Western RPG design (Mass Effect, Knights of the Old Republic, Baldur's Gate).

So how has it been received? Extremely well, for the most part. 1up.com gave it a high grade, while Destructoid sorta bagged on it.

I know I don't cover the DS enough here... but seriously- this is yet another great looking RPG for DS. Who would have thought this would be "the" RPG system for this generation?
