     > When the first Sonic Adventure hit the Uberconsole in 1998 (Japan), it ushered in a new level of graphics, gameplay, and excitement for the genre.  Ever since then, rumors have been rampant regarding Sonic Team's inevitable sequel.  We know, of course, that this new game will be titled Sonic Adventure 2.  Apparently, the game will have a tie-in with the 10th anniversary of the Genesis original (which sealed Sega's 16 bit success).

     > Sonic Adventure 2 will obviously and expectedly feature enhanced graphics -- just take a look at the first set of official screen shots below.  Not much else is known, but I'll update this preview as information becomes available.  Naturally, I expect that importing, as with the first Sonic Adventure, will not be too much of a problem.

FIRST IMPRESSION:
     > Can you say photographic?  Just one look at these pix is enough to raise my anticipation of the next uber-action title from Sonic Team.  I expect this game will raise the bar even further...
Potential: 9+
