I wasn't sure about the first Sonic Riders, I couldn't really get into it as it was too complicated to play in multiplayer which put me off, but otherwise it was a very well presented game and an original idea. I never finished the story mode. It'll be interesting to see what improvements there are. I'm surprised they made a sequal, it didn't get great reviews but it must've sold well. A little worrying to see it on PS2 as well, which suggests it might just be a PS2 port with poorly thought-out Wii controls added on as an afterthought, let's hope it's not.

The Japanese name is Sonic Riders Shooting Star Story. I don't know about you but I prefer the Japanese name, Zero Gravity is hardly original, but it doesn't matter.

I will probably buy it, being a Sonic game and because I could see the potential in the original even though I didn't get on with it.

I think I'll just stick to Mario Kart Wii. Looks decent enough, though.

TBH I prefer zero gravity. Im not a fan of long names. I prefer them short and simple. I preferred sonic & the secret rings as wildfire. But thats just me.

Didnt mind the first one, so I hope this one's just as good. Heck, if they were confident in making a sequal, surely it can't be too bad, right? o.o
