A snippet of Sonic Chronicles gameplay
Our prayers after a vacant E3 have been answered. After complaining like little kids that we have no video for Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood, a hefty sack of media has dropped by, showing off gameplay in several different areas of the upcoming RPG. The above portion is titled Green Hill, and it seems like the kind of happy chappy level present early on in most Sonic games.
Hit the break for four more videos, showcasing new levels and a few extra characters. Comments thus far? The environments look excellent, with the subtle painted style complementing the 3D character models very nicely. The lack of action in these clips is a little disappointing, but we know there will be plenty of that, what with it being a turn-based RPG and all. Quietly confident in this one.

The greatest videos ever posted on DSfanboy. This game continues to do no wrong.

Someone needs to rip the Gamestop video that shows some combat, it looks quite entertaining.
Also, holy shit the chao function looks great!

I'm going to assume there will be sound effects in the finished version. :P

CHAO GARDEN!!
Seriously, I'm bored watching these videos, and I'm not even the one playing it ... oh, please, let this be a GOOD game ... not even excellent, I'll be happy with mediocre!

My daughter did focus testing for this in May and she really enjoyed it (she is 9 and hasn't played any other Sonic games). She was the only one in the group to read the dialog and she enjoyed the story elements. The rest of the group were boys and they all had fun with the combat but didn't know why they were doing anything (since they hadn't read the story).

Good to see the lightning fast gameplay that made the Sonic series great hasn't been forgotten.
Nah, I'm just messin' with ya - I'm sure this game will be great. Unlike the last 10 Sonic games. ;)
