There hasn't been a sonic annual in the UK for YEARS, and this year see's a SonicX annual being published.
And two books from the new series [53-78] are to be published in America.
please note: the two books MAY be published in the UK also. As Amazon.co.UK lists them. But do not give either "UK price" or "UK equivalent" for US imports.
Sega have patented another title in the US Patent listings, called Sonic Rush. Could this be the Sonic R Extreme rumoured to grace the PSP? Stay tuned, as the answer will more than likely be revealed at E3 later this month!
Game news site 'GamesAreFun.com' has reported that (allegedly) Play magazine has an article revealing a 'Sonic Collection 2'. The game is reported to include Sonic CD and Sonic the Fighters among others, and be GameCube exclusive - though the article is hardly 100% certain, and the facts have not been verified.
It does make sense considering the registration of the name 'Sonic Gems Collection' and the upcoming E3 show, as well as the reported development of a GameCube exclusive Sonic title. Again, note that the news is not yet confirmed.

In the NOM magazine on sale from today in the UK, an exclusive play of the demo version of this controversial Shadow game to come later in the year reveals a lot of hidden surprises, as well as some accompanying screenshots.
It is confirmed by Iizuka-san that Shadow will be appearing on all three platforms, for starters. Screenshots are also shown of various play elements such as Shadow jumping into mounted cannons to blast off a few caps, soaring on a winged alien of some sort and more details of the enemies Shadow will face. Scans are available below, and they include some rather sexy promo art.
From an interview with AnimeNewsNetwork.com:
Q: On a similar note, do you have any intentions of releasing any other Japanese series in their original format?

Adding to the countless pre-E3 rumours that have been circulating around the net, Game Stop have listed a PSP game under the simple title of 'Sonic'. A previous interview with Takashi Iizuka on 1UP has confirmed Sega's intention to make a PSP game. Interestingly, the game is listed under Action/Adventure/Racing - could this be the rumoured Sonic 360 or, being a 'racing' game, the speculated Sonic R Extreme?
