Sonic Chronicles interview for Nintendo DS

Bioware + DS + Sonic = WTF? Yes, it's true. Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood is a brand new departure for the blue hedgehog, and it has us very intrigued. In the hands of anyone else, you'd wonder how it could be pulled off, but this is Bioware, the developers of Baldur's Gate, Mass Effect, Neverwinter Nights and a string of other classics. If anyone can create a compelling RPG with the Sonic IP, it's them, so we're looking forward to Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood massively. To sate our appetite, we caught up with the developers for an interview to see how the game is shaping up and to find out what exactly to expect from Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood.

Sonic Chronicles interview for Nintendo DS
We're intrigued by Sonic Chronicles and when we're intrigued about something then we have questions. Important questions. Thankfully we found Mark Darrah, who's working on what could be one of the most interesting DS role-playing games yet.

How are you planning to keep the feel of a Sonic game without the speed of the originals?
Using familiar environmental elements from the Sonic title, Sonic Chronicles will definitely give Sonic fans the same feeling of speed they look for in a Sonic title – including the infamous loop-de-loops.

How many characters from Sonic's past games are you hoping to squeeze in?
There will be a wide variety of familiar characters in Sonic Chronicles, including Amy Rose, Knuckles, Tails, and Big the Cat. There will also be some all-new characters who have never been seen before in the Sonic universe, like the dark and enigmatic Shade.
