Nintendo Power’s February issue discusses the new Sonic RPG game being developed by Bioware. The cover story, which is 7 pages long, is full of information and screenshots, the magazine covers Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood.

Sonic Chronicles will be created for the Nintendo DS portable hand held system. Sonic exchanges his signature "speed of sound" for a more narrative experience. Wonder if they got any of their ideas from Sonic RPG EPS online games??

BioWare co-founder Ray Muzyka explains why they chose the Nintendo DS over the Wii Entertainment system...

“In some ways, we think that the DS is just more attuned to the style of the game we make at BioWare….With the two screens you can actually show RPG stats and the stuff that’s appropriate for the genre. It enables different types of gameplay; the fact that you can touch the screen, the fact that it has all kinds of other cool capabilities.”
