🌻Ashita wa nanika ga kawaru ka na?
Anyway, since there is probably noone else here that cares about the PWNsome Sonic Riders series, I figured I would post this and get all the credit. Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity was announced yesterday, and will be very similar to the original, with the subtraction of the Turbelence feature. In it's place, there will be a gravity controlling feature, infact, two of them.
If you never played the first game, I will explain the basic concept. It is a part racing game part extreme sports game. You constanty move forward, steer with the controls stick, and drift around corners like in Mario Kart, but that is where the similaritys end.
In Sonic Riders, you have an "Air Gauge". The air gauge depletes as you move and use boost moves. The Air Gauge is replenished by performing tricks. You can peform tricks by going of a ramp, then moving the control stick to perform various aeriel manouvers.
You can also jump by pressing A, and charge up a jump by holding then releasing A. Release A right before going over a ramp to fly higher into the air, giving you more opertunitys to perform tricks.
Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity will be available for both Wii and PS2, and while the PS2 version probably won't be much different from what I said, I'm sure the Wii version will have modified controls, better graphics, and exclusive features.
