           | Sonic
            and company are back in Sonic Adventure 2:
            Battle for Nintendo GameCube. Dr. Eggman is up to his old tricks,
            and it’s up to Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles to stop him yet again.
            Sonic Adventure 2: Battle features faster action, all-new two-player
            games, and a branching storyline that lets you choose to save the
            world as the Hero side, or conquer it as the Dark side. Two new
            playable characters enter the Sonic universe - a dark
            hedgehog called Shadow, and a jewel-thieving bat named Rouge. 
  In the
            single-player mode, you’ll go through more than 30 unique stages,
            which include everything from a forgotten pyramid, an abandoned
            military base, and a giant space station. Then there’s the
            expanded two-player mode, which features 12 playable characters
            competing in new head-to-head games. All of this adds up to
            Sonic’s biggest adventure yet!

           |  IGN Cube:
 "While the GameCube port of Sonic Adventure 2 debuted at Space
            World back in August in early demo form, Sonic Team is back, with a
            vengeance so to speak. Attendees at this Fall's Tokyo Game Show were
            given the chance to try out a more complete version of the game
            under its new moniker..."

            Spot:
 "Sonic's transition from one dimension to the next has been a
            rocky one... The tedious collecting and shooting levels are made
            more frustrating by the game's uncooperative camera, and it's a
            shame that Sega's latest Sonic game has very little to do with the
            blue hedgehog..."

           |  Planet GameCube:
 "Sonic Adventure 2 Battle is a spectacular game filled with
            replay value and bonuses, although its specific additions over Sonic
            Adventure 2 for the Dreamcast may not be reason enough for everybody
            to buy it. The multiplayer features are fun, but not that drastic an
            enhancement."
