What on Earth justifies that size? It's ridiculous.

[Shane]

How many documentaries are there? O_o

[Komodin]

Over three gigabytes?! Man, they better have remade the entirety of Sonic 1 if the game's that big...

As XD375 says, it's bound to be the video content.

[Woun]

As XD375 says, it's bound to be the video content.

But still, over three gigs? SA1 on XBL is 1.5GB. This is double that, so those videos have got to be pretty huge.

[Wittymations]

But still, over three gigs?

Probably 30 minutes of HD video content. Which is a shame.

[Jango]

Too bad Ken is propaly sleeping haha He said the codes will be sent at the release day, I've asked for a PSN US code, so "my" release day is today! I got money to buy it, but I c... I ca... CAN, yes I CAN WAIT! *shakes*

[Stritix]

I'm thinking about making a Japanese PSN account to get it early. I'm just not sure if my credit card would work.

So,

Who is the (un)lucky first member to play this SA2 re-port?

[Your Vest Friend]

Sonic Heroes was 4.4GB (or thereabouts), so SA2 being 3GB doesn't really surprise me.

GameCube's disc capacity is 1.5GB. PS2's disc capacity is 4.7GB. This is a GameCube port vs. a PS2 emulation.

[Sonaos]

I have to wait for the Xbox version to hit the marketplace, but I just want to know if there's a feature to transfer chao from the Sonic Adventure chao garden. And if you can breed two-toned chao. Geez, I'm still traumatized* by the SA port gardens and their lack of unique breeds.

*over-exaggeration

I am installing it now, but it's taking a while. Someone will probably beat me to it.

Edit: YEAAAAAAAH~!

Tell us about the machine in the Chao Gardens. I'm curious to know if they just ported the name thingy from DX or if there's more to it.

[Chooch]

Hahaha. I have honestly been avoiding the Chao keys like the plague but okay.

This person makes a good point. You can't unlock Green Hill Zone in SA2 HD without the Battle DLC. I hadn't thought about that.

[Shane]

I was sure I mentioned that earlier but it may've just been in a Skype chat or something. Kinda disappointing.

[Blue Blood]

lol, yup!

Actually, you know what would make more people want the DLC? If it automatically unlocked Green Hill. You can't play the level without the Battle DLC, but once you have downloaded it it's right there for you to play as and when you please. You get an achievement now for collecting all the emblems. And seeing as some of them come from Karate which isn't in the vanilla game, why not advertise Green Hill as a bonus stage in the DLC pack?

Chao Karate has 4 emblems, and that was added in Sonic Adventure 2 Battle if I recall correctly. So if that's part of the Battle DLC, then that would mean you need the DLC for Green Hill Zone.

[TheOcelot]

Should I just download the main game (tomorrow) and complete it first, before downloading the DLC Battle content? Or should I download the DLC straight away?

[Pawn]

I didn't remember having to enter my Chao in the Karate for emblems, but now I see what you mean about needing the DLC.

[Shane]

So is Battle's intro movie in the game as is or does it come with the DLC?
