Fell free to send me logos for this site.

    More information on the Sonic Compilation

    TSSZ just got some news on the new Sonic Compilation GD-Rom for DC, to be released sometime next year. Here's what Tristin had to say.

    We have just received an update on what is in the proposed Sonic compilation disc for the Dreamcast. It looks like all the Sonic Team made Sonic games will be in there, meaning Sonic 3D Blast and Sonic R are out. However, this could mean that we would see Sonic 1, 2, 3, and Knuckles, in addition to Sonic CD! It also looks like the Sonic Team will be trying to put the late Sonic X-Treme on the disc as well! As you may know, Sonic X-Treme, though not made by the Team themselves, was developed by STI (a division of SOA) as a Sonic platformer for the Saturn. Development was then cancelled for unknown reasons.

    We also have word that this new compilation CD, to be released in 2001, would span two GD-ROMs. As for extras, we have no idea what will be included yet.

    Walmart = More Sonic Merchandise

    Well, after my 5-day absence from the net, I actually LEFT the house, and went to Walmart.

    Of course, I checked for the new SA Series 2 Action Figures (resaurus) but what I found instead was strangely odd. Walmart is now carrying an assortment of Sonic the Hedgehog bath supplies. Or so, I'm assuming. What I found was a small little water game, with Sonic on it. On reading the back, it said "Look for more Sonic Bath Supplies brought to you by -someoffbrandcompany-"... It was one of those cheesy little "press the buttons to make the rings land on the posts" games, and the top opened up (I think) for the soap or whatever.

    Another thing I found, which striked me as odd, is the latest Tiger Electronic's gimick games, entitled "Tiger Arcade". They feature those cool little low-res dot matrix screens like seen in the old Tiger 99x games. Walmart had only Hydro Thunder, and Q-bert for now, but on the back packaging, one of the games listed -- Sonic Adventure. Now, most of the other games WERE Arcade games at one time or another, except Sonic Adventure. No matter, it's still on my Holiday Wishlist. :)

    For now, I haven't seen these at any other store. Oddly enough, at my local K-Mart, anything even resembling a Dreamcast or periphiral for it has vanished -- save for one small little memory card. No games, no systems, no nothing. Although, Hap-hazardly stuffed into the games case was a literal MOUNTAIN of PS2 games and PS1 games. So many infact, that if one were to open the display case, they'd spill out onto the floor.

    Well, that's it from me. Later guys.

    More Sonic Shuffle Reviews and Movies!

    Both SEGAWeb and Daily Radar have recently reviewed the latest Sonic Game, Sonic Shuffle. Unfortunately, like DCIGN, Segaweb gives it a very poor score, 4.5/10. However, Daily Radar gave it a HIT Rating, which is the rating below their highest. I believe www.videogames.com have a review and fan reviews, but they seem to be down […]

    Sonic Shuffle Beaten To A Bloody Pulp by IGNDC

    Sonic Shuffle, Sonic's answer to Nintendo's Mario Party and Sony's Crash Bash has been dished out an exteremly bad review by IGNDC. Although they acknolaged the excellent sound, graphics, and overall presentation, they had a *few* quibbles with the gameplay, and they also said this game had a very low lasting appeal. The game was given a 4.7. Ouch!
