  1. awesome. It was too bad that metal sonic wasn’t in sonic adventure,it was a fight I looked forward to in 3D. But playing as him sounds better,as long as he has some special moves like jet-dash.

  2. Once of my favourite parts of Sonic Adventure 2 Battle was that you could play as Metal Sonic in two-player. Finally, he’s got some signle-player content. I mean, why did we get the Shadow the Hedgehog game before this? Seriously?
