Sonic Adventure is a 1998 platform game for Sega's Dreamcast, and the first main Sonic the Hedgehog game to feature 3D gameplay. The story follows Sonic the Hedgehog, Miles "Tails" Prower, Knuckles the Echidna, Amy Rose, Big the Cat, and E-102 Gamma in their quests to stop Doctor Robotnik from unleashing Chaos, an ancient evil. Sonic Team began work on Sonic Adventure in 1997. A 60-member development team created the game in ten months, drawing inspiration from locations in Peru and Guatemala. The game received critical acclaim for its visuals and gameplay, and, with 2.5 million copies sold by August 2006, became the Dreamcast's bestseller. It is recognized as an important release in both the Sonic series and the platform genre. Sonic Adventure was later ported to other consoles and received a sequel, Sonic Adventure 2, in 2001.

Reasons for nomination: This is the 20th anniversary of technically one of the most influential games of all time. I got it promoted earlier this year in hopes of running it on the main page in time for the anniversary.
