After years of nervous anticipation, the most anticipated Sonic title since the Genesis was finally released to the public. Sonic The Hedgehog 4: Episode 1 was made available for download on the Nintendo Wii late last week, and as of today it’s available on Xbox Live Arcade and the Playstation Store as well. Is it finally the Sonic game we’ve all wanted for years, or has the Sonic Cycle repeated itself once more? Our own staff writer Sebastian Sponsel muscled his way into Sega itself to get a complete hands-on, so read the full article and see if this is worth a download.

What more could you want? Our readers have spent September plugging away at their collections, and they’re back with vol. #58 of our monthly Reader Roundtable series.

Summer of Sonic 2010

Regardless of the quality of his recent games, no one can doubt that Sonic The Hedgehog is widely recognized. In fact, the Blue Blur was once more familiar to children than both Mario and Mickey Mouse! His fans are still found far and wide, and recently, many of them came together earlier this month in London, England to celebrate a Sega-sponsored event in his honor. Summer of Sonic 2010 had a ton of cool merchandise, famous faces, and even some authentic, live Sonic tunes!
