Sonic R is exactly what it says on the tin, a racing game, only the 'Racing' is abbreviated with just an 'R' and it's not in a tin. It sees you take a whole cast of Sonic Team characters in a racing revolution! A competition is held on Sonic's home grounds, and the blue blur just can't help but notice it. Sonic just can't turn something like this down. Tails follows, however this was just a ploy set out by Dr Robotnik to trap the blue hedgehog. The point of fatso doing this is to take over the world, again as per usual. But aswell as Sonic and Tails joining the race, Knuckles and Amy rose also have plans for pole position. AND with Eggman hoping to lead the race aswell as the world, this contest could get ugly.
