Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is out in theaters now, and as we’ve long known, the third live-action movie about Sega’s speedy mascot is heavily inspired by Sonic Adventure 2. The 2001 Dreamcast game introduced a new brooding antihero in Shadow the Hedgehog, and expanded the Sonic mythos into some dark territory. Sonic 3 isn’t a one-to-one retelling of Sonic Adventure 2, however. After two movies and a TV show, the live-action series has its own established lore, so the third film makes some pretty big changes to the original storyline while still keeping the darker tone and themes of Sonic Adventure 2 intact. Well, when it’s not doing the corny dance breaks and cheesy one-liners, at least. If you’ve never played Sonic Adventure 2, you might be curious just what was changed for the big screen, so here are a few of the major differences between Sonic 3 and Sonic Adventure 2. Spoilers ahead!
