November 3, 2010 by Sebastian Sponsel 0 comments

2010 marks yet another yearly effort by Sega to revitalize the Sonic franchise, and the company kicked things off last month with the release of Sonic The Hedgehog 4. November will see the debut of a new title called Sonic Colors, which looks to expand upon the type of gameplay we saw in the Sonic levels of Sonic Unleashed. To find out how things are coming along, spunky Sega-16 staffer Sebastian Sponsel (say that 3 times fast with a mouth full of marbles!) headed over to Sega Europe to give the Wii version a good hands-on. Read his full preview and see how the next step in hedgehog evolution is shaping up.

After almost two decades away from the limelight, Konami’s Rocket Knight series blasts back into action in a new game for Xbox Live Arcade, Playstation Network, and Steam (PC). This new sequel retains the classic 2D gameplay of the previous two games, but it brings a modern coat of paint to the visuals. The “2.5” look marks a new style for the series, and we’ve got a complete preview of it for you to check out before the game hits May 12. Did we mention we also chatted with the game’s associate producer? Well, what are you waiting for then? Read the article and see why great heroes never die; they just play possum.

We managed to avoid SCUM patrols long enough to get our hands on a preview of the book, and our impressions are now available for all to see. Read the full article and get ready for some driving action!
