A new trailer was recently released for Sonic Frontiers, that upcoming open-world Sonic game that seems to be receiving some pretty mixed reception. And considering Sega’s past track record with the franchise, it stands to reason that fans are feeling a range of emotions, from hopeful optimism and excitement to a gnawing conviction that the…

Sonic Origins is Almost Worth It
Recently, I had the chance to try out Sonic Origins, the latest Sonic collection from Sega. While it was nice to see the games presented in the best possible way, it just wasn’t enough to overcome what this game actually is, and what Sega has done to try and extract more money out the fans…
New Screens Sent Out for Sonic Origins
Sonic fans will be in for something of a treat when Sonic Origins releases on June 23rd this year. It’s a collection of the most notable of Sonic’s outings, including: Sonic The Hedgehog 1, Sonic 2, Sonic 3 & Knuckles and Sonic CD. It’s not everything fans would probably like to see in a Sonic…
Silly Scoundrels: Dr. Ivo ‘Eggman’ Robotnik
Dr. Robotnik is a baddie hailing all the way back to the era of Sega Genesis vs. Super Nintendo. It’s kind amazing how committed both companies were to their rivalry, with Nintendo boastful “now you’re playing with power” ad line and Sega’s overt “Genesis does what Nintendon’t” tag line. These two giants were out to…

The Clock is Still Ticking on the Judgement Website

So far, Sega has said next to nothing about what the site is counting down to, but they have given up two clues. The first is that the site does indeed have something to do with Judgement,…
Sonic Colors Remake Possibly Confirmed!
Some dedicated gaming news sniffers discovered the possible existence of a Sonic Colors remaster earlier this week. First, a German dubbing studio listed a “Sonic Colors Remastered” in their work portfolio. Next, a French retailer, “SoGamely,” listed “Sonic Colors Ultimate – Limited Edition” for PS4, Xbox One and Switch on their site. SEGA has yet…
The Sonic Movie was Actually…Pretty All Right
One of the most amusing things that happened on the Internet over the past year or so has got to be the Sonic the Hedgehog movie. More specifically, Sonic’s original nightmare-inducing design, complete with realistic chompers. In a turn of events that probably surprised everyone, Paramount actually redesigned Sonic and made him…actually really adorable. My…
Top 10 Games from Sonic’s Ultimate Genesis Collection
