Confused?
I thought Bioware stated that they are not working on IP's they don't own? Why did they change all of a sudden? Starwarsrulez 03:53, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

...Money? Philtrauferson 00:31, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
 * No I mean why are they working on Sega's IP when they said they were only doing their own IP? 69.214.55.43 19:09, 26 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Well, they have the advantage of using an already established IP for their first handheld game. Like I said, money. Philtrauferson 22:09, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
 * They have, what I know, said that they wanted to "focus more on their own IPs", that however does not have to mean that they have to stop it completly.81.216.251.71 10:07, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

this page
this page should not be here because we do not know anymore then we do about Sonic riders

We know a lot about Sonic Riders2... if you're somehow trying to say that there is not enough info to make a proper article, I agree. But there will be info slowly given out, and the article will be updated as such. Think of it as a placeholder, if you must. And sign your comments, using four tildes (~)Philtrauferson 00:31, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

I think the comparison to Mario RPG is kind of unnecesary. It's not as if we need to validate this game's existence or anything. 209.144.248.94 04:56, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I just included it as a kind of trivia fact to flesh out the article, and you can't deny that those comparisons are everywhere. I didn't include it to justify the game's existance or anything, but it's not really important so if it appears that way let's just leave it out Philtrauferson 15:37, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

There is nothing that says Sonic Riders 2 is happening (and I hope not - awful game, put it on ebay the day I got it). Do you means Sonic Rivals? Philtrauferson 23:18, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

Sonic Riders 1 was pretty shabby, and yes there is a Sonic Rivals 2, but there is going to be a Sonic Riders 2, and it looks monumentally better than the first one from what I've seen. Here, check it out for your own two eyes User:Radman622 07:11, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Sorry I haven't been around I have a question about the 'other character' does any one have any proof of this character or should I delete the 'fake' infomation? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wolly da wanderer (talk • contribs) 08:04, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

What other character is that.Fairfieldfencer (talk) 15:39, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

I would guess he is referring to this: "Another new character will appear but like Shade not much is known, he appears to be part of the same race as Shade since he looks very similar including the boots but has much larger horns and has a face that resembles that of a hippo's, he also seems to carry two metal circular blades with her." I was wondering about this too. Tommy11111 (talk) 17:19, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

 * I think this is based on a picture of a Shade-like character in the original preview that gave so much information about the game, but I don't believe it was mentioned they were a specific character - they might just be generic enemies who share Shade's fashion sense. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.42.224.209 (talk) 15:22, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Rumors of Tails' Death
CVG published an article on February 28th that hinted that Tails might die in the game. http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=183596 Although this is only a rumor, it has become widespread, and I think that it may have some significance in the article.

Dexter?
I'm not entirely sure that Dexter exists, it is easily possible Amy was making it up to get a reaction from Sonic. Personally, until there is more than mention in a screenshot of dialogue to use as proof, I think he should be considered a rumor and as such be absent from the article. If there is any other proof of him being an actual character then I'd like to see it. JEV3 74.33.123.241 (talk) 17:56, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Where did you get that from? Fair field fencer  F F F  18:11, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
 * He's obviously using it as satire. I disagree...obviously he exists if Amy mentioned him. It would be speculation to suggest he doesn't exist. -Sukecchi (talk) 18:23, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Because we all know YOU have the game, right? You know everything about what Bioware is planning, so why should we ever have questioned you're all knowing knowledge of Sonic Chronicles and Sega's ideas. After all, you work there right?

As long as there is nothing to prove that it's a lie, than it's still speculation. Thank you, I'll be signing autographs in the foyer. - Indigo Rush 23:46, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Without further evidence, we have to believe Amy.SLJCOAAATR_SOUL_Strike (talk) 02:55, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Nothing to prove it's a lie? What about the fact that, and I have repeated this multiple times although nobody seems to listen, BioWare. Did not mention. Anything. About Dexter. They also did not post the screenshot anywhere. There is absolutely NO proof that they created the screenshot and posted it; for all we know, it was made by IGN. I've also said this in multiple places, but I'll say it again as well: UNLESS YOU CAN FIND PROOF THAT THE SCREENSHOT CAME FROM BIOWARE ITSELF, IT CANNOT BE USED AS PROOF OF DEXTER'S EXISTANCE. And since it's the only existing proof that says Dexter exists, that would mean Dexter would also cease to exist. You need proof, sir. You need proof. 24.5.145.6 (talk) 05:44, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

Ages
it stated that the game takes place 2 years after sonic defeated eggman and is going on a vacation, does this mean everyone is now 2 years older? Example: Sonic-17, Tails-10, Knuckles-18, Amy-14, Cream-8, Rouge-20,etc.?--Sonicobbsessed (talk) 02:59, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Yeah it would do but incase you didn't notice; Sonic has been 15 for 17 years, so obviously they age differently from us. And welcome to the Sega project. Fair field fencer  F F F  08:05, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Didn't the Heroes guide state that Sonic was 16? SLJCOAAATR 1 (talk) 14:40, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

I see hes been 15 for all that time, but it says 2 years as in the sonic storyline, a 2 year skip, like in Naruto suppuden.--Sonicobbsessed (talk) 20:28, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Pics.
I was wondering if under the gameplay section, we could get a pic. of a battle against an enemy on one side, and on the other, a pic. of Sonic & co. exploring an area like Green Hill Zone for ex.? It's a good way to demonstrate how the gameplay of TGD works for those of whom don't already know. I also think under the story section, we should get a pic. of the screen of Amy telling Sonic about Dexter since so ppl are in denial of his existance? hanks. ;) SLJCOAAATR 1 (talk) 14:54, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Regarding the Dexter pic: why don't we just use it as a ref. Fair field fencer  F F F  14:55, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

That's a good point. Perhaps that'll end the denial?SLJCOAAATR 1 (talk) 20:45, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Ref added. Fair field fencer  F F F  09:27, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

Dexter - Clearing this up.
I'm getting tired of seeing "Amy may be making him up" or "He might be a hoax". To suggest that Amy is making Dexter up is speculation. Speculation is not welcomed here. He's mentioned in a screen shot; he exists. Deal with it. -Sukecchi (talk) 17:34, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Agreed, Chaoshi (talk) 18:31, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

My guess why people are saying this is because loads of fans all like the idea of the SonAmy relationship. And Dexter moving into the picture would mean Sonic has some official competion, not just fan made like Shadow and Blaze. Fair field fencer  F F F  18:48, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

I personally don't care whether or not he's real (I'll probably hate the storyline either way and never play the game), I'm just concerned that in the context of his name's mention in the dialogue that its not enough proof and it may be speculation either way. If he is real then I'm looking forward to seeing what he looks like. If he's not real, it wouldn't be the first time inaccurate information has been displayed for upcoming titles on Wikipedia. JEV3 74.33.123.241 (talk) 21:34, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Got to remember the game takes place two years ahead of the main stream, The characters can develop in unexpected ways. Even so there's no proof Dexter will make an appearance based on Amy simply talking about him. I'm thinking he's fit more in a trivia section right now as he's not 'confirmed to appear'. Soniccuz (talk) 21:49, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
 * No trivia sections. Trivia sections are to be avoided at all costs. -Sukecchi (talk) 22:24, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Understood Soniccuz (talk) 23:26, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

How exactly does a screenshot of this on IGN prove anything? If BioWare doesn't mention it at all, then there's no proof that IGN's screenshot is legitimate. They didn't post the screenshot anywhere; not in the NP article, not on their site. IGN's screenshot alone cannot be considered proof of Dexter's existence until it can be confirmed that the screenshot was made by BioWare itself. 24.5.145.6 (talk) 06:02, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
 * In fairness, the entire article needs references, but in that particular section it needs one for all characters. Am I supposed to place blind faith in the information about a future title that has no sources to back up the information presented? SynergyBlades (talk) 14:44, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
 * And besides, do you really expect BioWare to release important info regarding the plot of an unreleased video game, along with every other minor detail? Fair field fencer  F F F  20:20, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Just so you know, the latest issue of NP has the picture with Amy talking about Dexter in it. Chaoshi (talk) 20:40, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
