It appears, after TSS wrote a news story on the possibility of a Sonic racing game for PSP, that 'Sonic R Extreme' was more than a rumour. Sonic Rivals is an on-foot racing game and marks the blue one's first bounce onto the multi-talented Sony handheld. It's set on a 2D axis, but the environments are all in 3D. With a visual style similar to Sonic Heroes, this hopes to take the action back to its classic roots with chequered hillsides and springs. A friendly competition between Sonic and Knuckles starts to get out of hand (again) and it's not long before Shadow pops his confused head into the action. Of course, Eggman's in there somewhere with some dastardly plot, but what Sonic game is complete without one? More details are to be revealed at E3 2006, which TSS will have exclusive coverage on.
