There are some new Sonic Heroes videos up at IGN. The first video especially looks like we're back to an insanely fun old-school feel. And was that 3 different routes to travel? Nice music. Great Camera. I can't wait!

I would like to say that the Great Gamefaqs Battle 2003 is happening right now at Gamefaqs.com. How does this concern Sonic? Well, Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Shadow are in the competition. Sonic came in #10 last year after losing to Samus Aran by a few thousnd votes (which was the closest match of last year). Tails came in at #34, Knuckles #16, and Shadow is new this year. So come on! We need votes! With 4 members of Team Sonic, I expect someone to get the top 3. Link must fall this year! (sorry Link fans). Stop reading this and go vote.

Note: Different characters are up on each day. You have to check daily to see who's up.

Searching through Amazon for Kirby games I found...this?

Go to www.amazon.co.uk and seach for 'Sonic Battle'. If you're too lazy, hit here.

It's a Sonic game for GBA Coming sometime in November...did anyone know about it before me? If so why wasn't I, ultimate Sonic Otaku informed?!

Here is the lowdown:

Fast gameplay and furious battles
Starring Sonic, Tails, Shadow, and more
Eight playable characters and one mystery fighter to unlock
Multiple special attacks for each character
Team-based cooperative attacks
3D battles for up to four players, either solo or in teams
Single player mode lets you create and train your own AI fighter

Strange thing is, I haven't heard about it anywhere, not even here at Sonic HQ!

True Red edit: That means you haven't kept up with the news unfortunately. Sonic Battle has been headline news previously here, here, here, here, and here. Thanks for a more specific European release date though. :)
