    This is turning into a series... This could get real bad, real fast.

    Picture if it had the perceived quality collapse rate of the Sonic Series times the multiplication rate of the Mario Party series. I mean I like Sonic and liked the last Mario Party game I played but this is dangerous, very dangerous.

        That would connect Sonic Battle Adventure 2 and Super Mario Galaxy locations though. Those are, in my opinion, among the highlights of there respective series.

        Imagine firing bows and arrows at the Ark downing Artificial Chaos from Bowser's Fleet.

    I hope this one is better than the predecessor. Lack of story isn't great.

        Drug abuse stories!

        Mario catches Luigi pumpin up on Steroids whilst Tails notices Sonic is doping up on Speed!

          Nah, Luigi always seemed too innocent.

          If there's anyone on steroids, it's Bowser and how he can grow and shrink between games.

    That actually sounds pretty epic. ;P I'd buy it if they had drug scandals.

    They said the stuff they added would be for the fans, but the fans *bleep*ing want a proper game where Sonic can get his ass kicked probably.

    I love Sonic, but a proper game is in order. I'll buy this anyway lol.

          Lol what they said. XD

          Scott: Anything with Mario in doesn't have a proper storyline. Mario can beat Sonic on many things, but Mario games don't keep up with Sonic storylines.

          If you look at the top, drug scandals might happen so there you have it.

    I've never really liked games like this, I prefer something with a storyline.
