As the game goes on a story is unveiled via cutscenes.
#Sonic racing gamecube series
Story Mode: Players take part in a series of races, one after the other.These include races with different level completion objectives and a Shop mode where the player can spend gathered rings. Axel: A man with green hair who drives the Crazy Taxi.Amigo: A monkey that plays maracas at a concert in SEGA Carnival.The production of the E-10000Ps stops when the factory is frozen. E-10000P: Purple robots that are in production.E-10000Y: A flight robot that appears in Egg Factory, and tries to thaw the ice in Ice Factory.He has a new voice, along with the rest of the crew. Omochao: Omochao is the announcer for the races.These are characters which play a role in the game but are not actually playable. It is possible to ride Blue Star instead of just floating across the track with no board. Also, when you lose all your rings, Sonic only needs one ring to change back to Super Sonic again.
When using Super Sonic he will start off with 30 rings, instead of the usual 50 in other games. Super Sonic has all three attributes thus can't be categorized into a single category.
The Speed attribute allows players to grind along rails. This includes Ulala from Space Channel 5, NiGHTS from NiGHTS into Dreams, and Aiai from Super Monkey Ball.Įach racer in the game has one of three beneficial attributes: Speed, Fly, and Power.
In addition to the new characters, characters from other Sega games are also playable. This game introduces five new playable characters, the Babylon Rogues and the E-10000 series. If a boost is performed when in close range of an enemy racer, the player will launch an attack against the racer, causing them to lose Rings, and remain stunned for a short duration. Possibly the most costly maneuver in terms of air is boosting, by which a player greatly increases speed for a short duration. Players start races at Level 1 which can be maxed out to level 3 with 60-100 Rings. Picking them will allow the player to reach higher performance levels. Throughout the courses, there are many Rings scattered around. Building the tension before a jump will allow the player to perform more tricks before landing.
Riding off the turbulence another board gives off will also refuel the air gauge. When airborne players can perform various tricks, which refill the air gauge according to their rating. These maneuvers include cornering, which involves using the air as a sideways force against the board, allowing the player to round sharp turns with ease, and building tension before a jump, which involves using the air to propel the player higher off of ramps. Sonic Riders is played entirely hoverboards ( Extreme Gear), in which players typically race against seven other competitors on one of 14 tracks.Ī key component of the game is the air tank, which fuels the Extreme Gear, and is depleted gradually as the race goes on or by performing certain maneuvers. But what was Eggman's true motive, and what of the three thieving birds? Sonic and his friends must face off against the Babylon Rogues to find out. The next day, Sonic found that Doctor Eggman had set up a hover board racing tournament, with the prize being the very Chaos Emerald that was stolen, and the top three entries being the thieves! Sonic and his friends promptly pay the entry fee of one Chaos Emerald and take up the challenge. Wave slows down a bit, allowing Storm to grab his hover board, then they get away. However, Jet gives Sonic a taste of his own medicine, and the group, known as Babylon Rogues, escape. Sonic steals the board the clumsy albatross left behind and pursues Jet. Glass shatters and from Metal City Bank fall Jet the Hawk, Wave the Swallow and Storm the Albatross, who have the Chaos Emerald! Sonic and Knuckles manage to knock Storm off the hover board he was riding, but Wave catches Storm and gives him a lift. Sonic, Tails and Knuckles are walking through Metal City one evening, and Tails detects a Chaos Emerald on his radar.
