	Games - E-102 Gamma

E-102 Gamma is a fictional character in the Sonic the Hedgehog universe. He is 7 ft and 1 inch tall, weighs 1815.6 lbs, and has a 15.5 cm missile launcher. His character designer was either Yuji Uekawa or Takashi Iizuka.

History

E-102 Gamma, the second in the E-100 series line, was created by Dr. Eggman. E-102 Gamma is operated by a captured pink bird held inside the robot.

Although E-102 Gamma was created and made to work under Dr. Eggman, he often will do good instead of evil.

At first, Gamma seemed to have no feelings and served Dr. Eggman and even fought his older 'brother', E-101 Beta, to become a member on the doctor's Egg Carrier. He even did not mind capturing Froggy in a contest against his younger brothers, E-103 Delta, E-104 Epsilon and E-105 Zeta (Which Gamma won).

However, when Eggman tells Gamma to acquire a bird from a girl (Amy Rose) held captive in a prison cell on the Egg Carrier, Gamma finds that the bird with Amy is one he is acquainted with. Gamma finds a change in heart, and frees Amy and the bird.

When the Egg Carrier explodes, Gamma flies to the Mystic Ruins and determines that Dr. Eggman is evil and deletes the files having the doctor as his master. He then decides that he needs to locate his brothers (the rest of the E-100 series) and 'free' the birds trapped inside them.

Gamma first finds and destroys E-103 Delta the Windy Valley in Mystic Ruins, then he finds E-104 Epsilon in Red Mountain on Ange Island and destroys him too. After that, he returns to the Egg Carrier to find E-101 Beta and E-105 Zeta. After destroying an improved version of E-105 Zeta, he goes to the deck for the final confrontation with an improved version of E-101 Beta. Gamma destroys Beta, but is severely injured in the process. Gamma falls over and explodes, freeing the pink bird that was inside of him.

It is supposed in Sonic Battle, Dr. Eggman finds his ruined parts and rebuilds him, only now he is reffered to as E-102 Chaos Gamma. This is likely because in this game Gamma is powered by a Chaos Emerald shard. Chaos Gamma makes numerous attempts to re-capture the robot Emerl (or Gizoid). He also does not recognize Sonic and his friends, as his original memories were most likely deleted after his death.

In the final chapter of the game, Emerl can train with Gamma along with Sonic's friends as sparring partners before the final challenge. It is unclear if this is because Gamma has become good again and turned on Eggman, or if like many characters bested by the Gizoid, he feels the need to pass along his fighting skills to Emerl. However he says he can start a training sequence so he may have just been a similar robot with a training program installed. (The game doesn't state that the Gamma in Emerl's chapter was Chaos Gamma.)

Gameplay

Gamma's gameplay involves shooting enemies and reaching a boss/target while time diminishes. The more enemies you aim and shoot at the same time, the bigger your score and time gets.

Personality

Even though E-102 Gamma is a robot, he has a personality. He is serious, patient, very determined, and free-willed. In Sonic Battle, he does not act as free-willed and speaks less robotically (he will say "can't" instead of "can not").

In Sonic X, he was cast with being slightly more emotional and was even capable of being frightened and disturbed before he met Amy.

Relations

E-102 Gamma was the third of the E-100 Series to be activated. Being a robot, he has no "family" but there are several beings involved in his creation.
