To my suprise today while at the local Best Buy they have a stack of soming attraction DVD's that come free with any Music, Game, or Movie purchase. This DVD has trailer for all types of games and music and movies. Among them is a high quality DVD trailer for Sonic Heroes showing off all the teams and some gameplay. I can make a DVD RIP later.
Sonic battle is now avaliable in Japan.

Seems Chaos in getting in on the action as well, and he also seems to have the ability to melt into a puddle of water. Who knows what other Sonic characters are going to be added next?
If you have digital cable network G4: TV for Gamers then on Thursday, December 11th you can catch a special dedicated to Sonic Team and Yuji Naka.
I didn't catch the times though. Check www.g4tv.com for local listings.
I was browsing TV Guide's website, and when I searched for Sonic the Hedgehog, I was shocked to find Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM) airing at 7AM (EST) this coming Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday on WFQX (for Dish Network users. Not sure exactly what channel it is)! I also found Sonic Underground is starting Monday, to air every day on WB at 8:30AM (EST)! Seems weird, the shows just popping up like that...
Additional notes: WFQX is Fox 33 in Michigan. No idea (yet) if SatAM is on anywhere else. Check for the DiC Entertainment block, which is on various stations--usually a WB or UPN station--to find out when SU comes on (if it does come on) in your area.

IGN has posted 13 new videos of Team Sonic in several levels, including a boss battle.
Sega's New Sonic Heroes Site
Sega.com has a new Sonic Heroes site up with videos, screenshots, wallpapers, and more detailed info on each team's characters and story. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a way to turn the music off while still playing the videos with sound.
Most of it (besides the wallpapers) we've seen before, but the site has a new theme song and some new character info, which are summarized in the link below.
NOTE: The Team Sonic movie is now mirrored on SHQ's Sonic Heroes page, so you can hear it without the background music interfering.

IGN has videos featuring Team Dark, Team Rose, and Team Chaotix, WITH their theme songs. (Note: The Team Chaotix video is listed under Team Rose and has the same filename; notice that Team Rose has more than 1 video at each resolution.) Click below to see the lyrics and some highlights.
