Another week has sped by depositing us smack bang in the middle of Easter weekend the perfect time to forget about new years resolutions and chow down on some delicious chocolate, it seems however that some of us have got a bit of a head start…

Tails has been letting himself go a bit recently

Monday 6th
Digital Spy in association with the Sonic City Blognik puts together a competition to win a signed copy of the Sonic and the Black Knight script, one of only two in existence so a must have for all you merch whores out there. The competition originally closed Friday, but has been extended a couple of days once the competition was expanded to include none UK residents.

SOA’s talking cardboard cut out (marketing VP ) Sean Ratcliffe, (no offense to) says a few words to Venture Beat about the success of the Mario and Sonic at the Olympic games, plans for the winter games sequel and a little bit on the recent House of the Dead prequel/Madworld games on Wii.

That last bastion of hope for Sonic’s survival that is until recently when they pronounced the blue hedgehog dead, UK Resistance had a rather nice post about some interesting cos-play costumes going on ebay at the moment, which was picked up later on by pretty much every major Sonic news outlet on the net (so why not here as well?). These costumes are of course of the highest quality with painstaking attention taken to make sure all the details are spot on, coming to you all the way from China therefore rendering the above complements bald faced lies. Well worth a look though and you never know when a giant condom in the shape of your favorite Sonic character could come in handy.

OK, bad fan fiction plus a musical, this combination has the potential to kill millions! More info can be found here.
