In a plot that echoes of both Tron and Megaman, this is a story about a Japanese scientist who creates a digital superhero and a rival who would like to take control of that creation for his own ends.

Like Ristar before him, Pulseman strives for Sonic's level of perfection but falls just short. It's just a little too easy to get hit when you're going at full speed, and you're required to use his special move (with which you bounce off walls like a billiard ball) way too often. But hey - anything remotely close to Sonic is better than almost anything else out there.
