[b]Screenshot[/b] [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/f/f6/Darkspines_Sonic.jpg[/img] This Picture was really cool. [b]Story[/b] The story begins with Sonic napping, he reaches to check his clock upon awakening, accidentally bumping a ring, Shahra the Ring Genie, pops out of a book of the Arabian Nights and into Sonic's world. She reveals that an evil entity known as Erazor Djinn is absorbing the power of the book and causing pages of it to disappear. If he is not stopped, his power will be unleashed onto the real world unless the "Legendary Blue Hedgehog", told of in the stories, can stop him. Shahra gives Sonic a ring that seals a contract between her and her new master. Sonic rubs it as instructed, and is asked for a wish. He sneezes from a cold and humorously asks for a few handkerchiefs, getting a large pile.

Erazor Djinn tells them that if they do not get him the Rings, he will kill Sonic. So they begin their epic journey to retrieve them. [b]Gameplay[/b] In Adventure mode, players control Sonic with the Wii Remote by holding the controller sideways with both hands and will be able to use the controller in unique ways that take advantage of the Wii Remote's control mechanisms.
