But that's not the only chance you'll have to stomp some of Sonic's rogues gallery.

Circle doubles as an attack button and a homing attack button so that characters can cream one another as the contests get up close and personal. If we were able to stick to the same path as our opponent, Tails could perform a kick that would not only yield his competition's rings but also his or her spot in the race. The fox fell to a lower section of the level, smashed through a crate and was fired through a maze of underground pipes that kept us on pace - although not on the same plane - with our foe. As we tore along a treetop track, Tails scooped up rings and power-ups but missed a launching pad when we didn't tap X quickly enough. This morning I took Sonic's faithful companion Tails up against Espio the Chameleon in a battle of the fleet tailed versus the fleet footed. If you missed a jump or fell from a platform in the original Rivals, your fast-paced action came to a screeching halt as you tried to get back into the race. Yes, the frantic 2D races, pitfalls and items are intact in Sonic's story mode, but now SEGA has added in alternate routes to keep the fun going. However, Rivals 2 appears to have tossed in enough change to bring even the casual fan of the original back to the table. Basically, it's an evolved version of Sonic on the Genesis.

If you missed the first installment in this PSP Sonic series, the game puts you in the soon-to-be worn out shoes of your favorite speedster - from day one, you'll have access to eight characters such as Knuckles, Shadow and Metal Sonic - and has you race opponents through levels filled with boxes, monsters and insane ramps on your way to besting your opponent, setting a record, unlocking collectable cards and going toe-to-to with Eggman. Luckily, Sonic and a plethora of his pals are ready to combat this latest wave of terror through races and fistfights in Sonic Rivals 2. Why does he hate animals and crazy gumdrop-shaped creatures? Who didn't hug this man as a child? Why?! Why does Eggman have to be so evil? All the Chao want to do is live peacefully, and that rotund jackass keeps kidnapping and experimenting on them.
