Before I get started with this I want to make a few things clear, yes I’m biased! This is a review of a Sonic game on a Sonic fan site of course its going to be biased, but I’m going to try and approach this from a neutral angle. First off I’m going to try and avoid referring/comparing this game to past Sonic games, I’m going to pretend that this is a completely new game not groaning under the weight of almost 17 years worth of franchise. I’m also going to pretend that I’m the target audience i.e. a child (except with better spelling and writing ability), not a 20 something fan boy with no date tonight… this shouldn’t be too hard since I’m constantly being told to grow up. Right I don’t know how long I can keep myself in this state of mind so lets get started.
With no warning or even hint, Sonic Team have released their first Downloadable level pack for Sonic Unleashed (at the time of writing only for Xbox, but assumed to come to PSN soon). The description states you get 4 new Day levels and 2 new Night levels, and at only 250 MS points is it a bargain? (continue reading…)
Checking my inbox today I discovered that the Sonic Show has returned, with a valentines special… bit late guys… (OK I know how these things go sometimes and things get delayed heck I know I’m guilty of it)… anyway the new show can be viewed here, on the brand new Sonic Show website.
Alternatively you can view it right here (after the jump), because unlike other Sonic sites who beat me to this news I know how to embed videos. (continue reading…)
I didn’t think I’d get this comic out today since I was in a bit of a rut last week, but I managed to get myself sorted out at least for now. So here’s a comic!
Only a few days left to attempt to make some Sonic fans poorer… including myself, by submitting art/videos whatever to Sonic relief, so hurry up and get them in, a new site showcasing what people have submitted so far can be found here.
Even Tails Supports red nose day!
All entries should be posted here: http://www.sonicstadium.org/board/index.php?showtopic=49
With the release of Sonic and the Black Knight in Europe (I can’t wait… despite what IGN says) a new trailer has appeared called Slice and Dice, pretty self explanatory I think. Hit the jump to view the trailer. (continue reading…)
To celebrate the UK release of Sonic & The Black Knight as well as Comic Relief’s Red Nose Day on Friday 13th March 2009, MK Skillz and the gang at the SSMB is giving you the chance to help raise some money for charity in the very first Sonic Relief!
Sonic Relief is a concept made by MK Skillz which simply asks you to “do something Sonic for money”. Thanks to the super power of teamwork, I and Dreadknux are supporting the idea and it’s been given the go ahead.
All we need you to do is to be a part of Sonic Relief! Whether you want to dress up as your favourite Sonic character, sing a song, draw us a picture… literally ANYTHING (as long as it’s funny and will make us laugh!) then we want to see it! The possibilities are endless!
For every entry that we receive, I Shadzter (as well as other supporting members such as Urtheart, bolt, Vger, and SEGA Sonic’s Radio DJs The DJ and JJ4eva) will donate money to Comic Relief. The more entries, the more money we raise… simple!
For those of you who do not know who or what Comic Relief is, it’s a UK based charity which aims to make “a just world free from poverty”. Every two years, Comic Relief holds Red Nose Day – a live television extravaganza which is usually a guaranteed night in of laughter. The general public can also purchase specially made Red Noses or simply do anything to raise money, with all the proceeds going to the charity. If you wish to find out more, please visit http://www.comicrelief.com/ or http://www.rednoseday.com/
The closing date for entries is Friday 13th March 2009.
Thanks for all your support so far, stay tuned for more Sonic Relief announcements coming soon!
