Uncover the truth and discover who your friends - or foes - really are!

"By giving Shadow a game of his own, we're able offer a unique gameplay experience while expanding the boundaries of the Sonic universe," said Scott A. Steinberg, Vice President of Marketing, SEGA of America. "New play mechanics allow Shadow to wield weaponry and use vehicles, while giving players a real sense of control over the story as it unfolds – they decide if Shadow is a hero or a villain."

Featuring a branching story mode with multiple endings and a fun 2-player competitive mode, Shadow The Hedgehog is designed to offer substantial replay value. Fans will also enjoy cameos by several Sonic characters, including Sonic, Amy, Knuckles, and Dr. Eggman.

Sonic Rush

The fastest hedgehog in the world is now pairing up with a mysterious character named Blaze the Cat. This dynamic duo heads out in search of the powerful and dangerous Sol Emeralds to ensure that they do not fall into the wrong hands. In their quest, Sonic and Blaze must battle all-new enemies, and as they do, ripple effects will change the events of their worlds' inhabitants.

"Sonic Rush combines the gameplay finesse and level design of the classic 2D Sonic titles with fully 3D character models, bosses and effects," said Scott A. Steinberg, Vice President of Marketing, SEGA of America. "The dual screen playfield on the Nintendo DS makes it easier than ever to follow the action, and the stylus works perfectly with the traditional Chaos Emerald minigames."
