Dr. Eggman stands in front of a mysterious terminal. Can it be...Eggman is fighting with the enemy !? But why?

The Latest Pictures Have Emerged! EGGMAN! And from the looks of that Second picture, he might be some sort of Playable Character! (I doubt they'd have some power up like that)

also (THEROY TIME) The first picture looks kinda like a comet. And the Sonic "Clone" seems to be black. Is it just me, or does this look like it's gonna be a Spiderman/Venom type Story? :)

Crazy mustache and round glasses...can only mean that diabolical scientist of evil, Dr. Eggman is back! Could it be that our leader of evil who's primary mission has been to stump the heroic efforts of Sonic... is engaged in a battle with the enemies? Check it out!

SEGA Japan have opened a small site deticated to Sonic Shuffle. Although fully Japanese, a translator like E-lingo will do the trick. Unfortunately, it doesn't tell us much more new, It Only tells of 4 characters (Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Amy, it doesn't even mention big) and the storyline doesn't say much.

I didn't see this coming, but for the heck of it, I went to Sonic Zone's SU Site to see if ANYONE has done ANYTHING with it. Looks like Tom's gone and brought it back. Except a few things, not much has changed. If you remember, Sonic Zone's SU Site was one of the largest SU sites before SU.net in August of '99.

Sonic Zone: Sonic Underground!

These are today's screenshots as one move shows Knux's new move, the Spiral Upper attack.

Knuckles is world famous for all his variety of moves! Gliding through the air, traversing treacherous cliffs, burrowing underground still make Knuckles an awesome character. This time around, Knuckles gets added moves to Power up his game.

The Latest Sonic Adventure 2 Pictures are out! Knuckles finally gets his turn, i what looks kind of like Red Mountain.

With the wide variety of playable characters...the charm of Sonic Adventure is back! Characters intertwine behind the scenes to reveal another Sonic epic. Our story would not be complete without the undisputed guardian of the Master Emerald, Knuckles the Echidna.

The USA Samba De Amigo page has added some new Samba De Amigo wallpaper for your downloading pleasure, which includes faces of all the characters from Samba De Amigo 2000, Including the new monkey girl, and also shows us her name, AMIGA! (oo, what a original name eh? ^_^ Its also an old console :P) Download:

Sorry for using the news board to do this, but it's the fastest way to get Vector's attention! Vec, when I was uploading the main page today, my FTP program timed out and I wound up deleting the whole page. Luckly I had a backup in index2, but it was outdated, AND THE NEWS ISN'T POSTING!!! I'm REALLY panicking right now, and I want to know if you can help me with this. I'll erase the page info things in the news column, and add the counter and What's New, but that's about all I can do. Can you PLEASE take a look at this and try to get the news to work again? THANK YOU!!

Upon my regular visit to www.dcwarez.com, my jaw dropped as I noticed that all the goodies of information of upcomming released pirated games were, well, gone. The front page was only left with this message:

"Due to legal issues, www.dcwarez.com is suspended until further notice. However, a full statement will be issued regarding the future of this site in several days."

Well slap me silly and call me a raving lunatic on drugs; SEGA has gotten to the second best "DC Scene" site on the web. However, one question pops up to everyones minds;

Why?

If anyone who visited www.dcwarez.com would know, they didn't contain any material which would be illegal in SEGA's eyes. No game covers, no illegal Dreamcast boot disk, no links to places to get the ripped games, nothing. All they really had was information on the next upcoming games that were ripped by the groups of DC hackers, and nothing more. Therefore, why is SEGA attempting to shut dcwarez.com down?

I'm not clear on the whole legal issues, but I'm sure what SEGA is doing is wrong. Nevertheless, it's still good to see that they're stomping down and setting the line to people out there who are attempting to release more pirated games online, and saying, "No more." Yet, will this be enough to stop it?

Not a chance. More and more sites pop up at least every week or so about the whole "DC Scene." Rest assured, the piracy of Dreamcast games will go on, but at least SEGA is trying their best to rid of it all.

Hello from me, with the news from this weekend. Today, release dates, hack threats, and Naomi 2.
