I have just got the new issue of Official Dreamcast Magazine UK. It has got
some news about Sonic Adventure 2 that I haven't seen anywhere before:

1) Dr. Robotnick's grandfather created Shadow. Shadow escapes to avenge the
death of his creator's niece. Its up to Dr Robotnick to get him back.
2) Hidden in the game is a 2 player racing game.
3) Each stage has 5 missions to complete (as opposed to Sonic Adventure 1's
3 missions)
4) Sonic and Shadow's sneakers are made by the U.S. shoe company, SOAP.
5) The game comes with an inbuilt download button.
6) Sonic was aged 5 on the Megadrive but 15 on the Dreamcast games. [I find
that hard to believe]
7) Shadow is linked to the Chaos emeralds.
8) The games locations include Egypt and outer-space.

The magazine also has drawings of devil and angel Chao.

Sorry, if any of this has been posted before.

Err, why does the UK still have a Dreamcast magazine? UK SUXX0RZ... I
mean... hi.

Robotnik's grandpa? Shouldn't he be dead? Why is some 120 year old man in a
walker making scientifically enhanced organic creatures?

> 2) Hidden in the game is a 2 player racing game.

*BAM*

It's hidden?

1's

BAM!

> 4) Sonic and Shadow's sneakers are made by the U.S. shoe company, SOAP.

Ha... I guess SOAP paid Sonic Team $5?

> 5) The game comes with an inbuilt download button.

Built-in download button? ... ok.

> 6) Sonic was aged 5 on the Megadrive but 15 on the Dreamcast games. [I

So what happens when Sonic turns 60? Is there a level inside a retirement
home? -_-

> 7) Shadow is linked to the Chaos emeralds.

This was obvious viewing the trailer... I hope there's a race between Sonic
and Shadow like Stardust Speedway.

> 8) The games locations include Egypt and outer-space.

Outer-space? Hmm... maybe we'll see anti-gravity sections again like the
Death Egg on Sonic & Knuckles.

I thought ODCM stopped publishing, like, a couple months ago...

Speaking of that... I still had 2 years left of my ODCM subscription...
I wonder why I haven't gotten ANY magazines in the past 3 months....
Those bastards were supposed to change it to another mag.

Err...
Last time I checked, Shadow wore some shoes that glided on air, and
Soad was a shoe made by Nike.

Actually that was just a rumor. You have to call them and ask for a
refund... or else Imagine just keeps your money...

MWA HA HA...

Isn't Imagine in debt?

"Imagine what we could do if we weren't in debt?"

HAR HAR... I kid... I kid because I love...

YOU LOVE ME? GET AWAY!

... I apologize, I have four projects to do for school and I'm lazy... and
don't wanna do them. =(
