Sonic 4 late 2010 release date for PSN, XBLA, WiiWare, and iPhone
Sonic the Hedgehog’s upcoming fourth game, neatly titled Sonic 4, now has an official release date. Unfortunately, it’s no longer going to hit our consoles (and our dreams) this summer as originally touted, instead falling to “late 2010.” And while that’s certainly a bummer, it’s all for the better; allowing Sega’s dev teams even more of a chance to ramp up the game’s quality, “ultimately providing fans with an unrivaled, classic Sonic feel,” or so the official press release would have you believe. Just as before, the episode game will be downloadable on Sony’s PSN, Microsoft’s XBLA, and Nintendo’s WiiWare, with Apple’s iPhone and iTouch joining in on the fun. Check out the trailer and a full press release, right here (more… )

Special Sonic Classic Collection to the Nintendo DS
If you’re going to ask my personal opinion, I think that the best Sonic games are the classic 2D games – that means two things; (1) I’m incredibly psyched about the upcoming Sonic the Hedgehog 4 and (2) I am absolutely in love with the upcoming special Sonic Classic Collection for the Nintendo DS. The collection includes Sega’s first three Sonic games and Sonic & Knuckles, as well as a tin, art cards, and a Sonic figurine. Unfortunately (for me) as of right now, the collection will only be available in Spain and Australia, but Sega has not ruled out a wider distribution. (more… )
