Really it depends. If you want a good old-fashioned 2D/3D Sonic game with high speed action, get Sonic Rush. If you want a 3D action/adventure high speed game with excellent gameplay and partly a shooter that could last long (considering there are up to 10 different endings), get Shadow The Hedgehog.

hey someone acctually knows there are 10 ending contrary to the visible 5! good for you! and theres the fact that in shadow you get co-op play by stickining a second controller in, a second person can play as your partner ^^
I still vote shadow though =P just cause I can, and because it will last alot longer than some 2-D enviromental handheld

Shadow the Hedgehog, for one reason:
Sonic RUsh looks just like your regular 2D sonic game where all you do is press the right button on the d-pad to make him run through a million loops. (I'm not bad-mouthing the 2D sonics, although the nwer ones were stupid, all you did was run in a straight line)
Sonic Rush will proberbly only have about 7 zones and you'll complete in a day or somethin'. I don't wanna waste 30 on that, plus Shadow the Hedgehog loosp pretty cool and open ended, weapons and the choice to be good or evil, I would definately part with my 30 for that! XD

I'm going with Shadow the Hedgehog.Why?Because:

Shadow is my fav(well,second fav)male in Sonic.This game looks diffrent from any of the other games(personally,if there was an Amy game,I'd get it 8DDD)

Secondly,I like games where you can just shoot people outta the regular >D(my oopsy,I guess that reason had no meaning)

Lastly,I'd like to learn more about Shadow's past,and this game "claims"(I'm not sure until it comes out)to have more info on his past.

That's about it I guess:/

Yeah but the thing is that isn't what the series is supposed to be about, while zipping around a million loops until you reach the end of a level is. The 3D games have gone flying way off the mark.
So you're saying the 3D games would be better if they didn't have a good story, and having little to no story makes the game better? The 3D games are MUCH better than the old 2D style, where your goal is the same thing over and over and over until the gameplay becomes dull. Zipping around a million loops isn't what makes a Sonic game.

So Shadow it is. I'm getting it tomorrow~

Well I disagree. The main pull of Sonic back in the early nineties was that he could burst through levels at 100 miles an hour. That was his selling point.

Mario made a successful transition to 3D because his game style wasn't affected in the step up. The sense of speed and wanting to finish a level quickly just isn't there with 3D Sonic games, and this particular game just makes me cringe. The series has turned into some gaming anime cross-over.

I'm not one of those guys who dislikes change, but Sonic was a series that I think was best left 2D. Although all things considered it would've been impossible to keep things that way.

and PS: yes, having little to no story can make a game better. Some just don't need to be bogged-down with things like that.

NA got 10+ and it swears in ours too << though they say dam too often, tails even says it once ^^;; shadow says it everytime he dies.

the 2D games are great, but putting the 3D ones down is stupid, SEGA would be dead if they didn't bring it 3D, because of all those Graphics-are-everything people, without the 3D they would have lost all of those 'fans' and trust me, thats alot of people
I'm guessing your just some shadow fanboy -_-;;
it has its faults, every game does, this one also has a glitchy camera, not as bad as SA2B though
Yeah, I heard that. I also head the controls were iffy and it wasn't really that fast "compared to the older generation of Sonic games."

People keep comparing it to the older games, when they shouldn't. The gameplay is different from the others to make it not like the old games.

Yeah it is iffy, I got the game a little while ago (about 3 and a half hours ago) and managed to beat the pure hero, while trying to keep control of shadow, its a bit slippery quite often.
though its still really good, but I wont spoil anything for people without the game.

I'm really thinking about getting Shadow The Hedgehog. My interest sparked in the game through reading some stuff online. Plus, it'll be nice to play as the bad dude and cause havoc to Sonic.

my interest in the Sonic series has resparked since I got my Gamecube. I'm looking forawrd to this game.

I didn't see a rouge mission along the way, though I was trying to get to hero, I kept getting neutral for thee missions then managed to pull myself down to the hero side, though in a dark side electrical level, with wires and stuff, rouge was a partner, but I went withdooms eye cause now I'm goin for dark.
but I had a similar problem playing the dark side of westopolis, my advice to you would be to check through the level a few times with your partner close by, sometimes they point them out to you.
