According to EBGames.com, Sonic and the Secret Rings will be released on March 6th, 2007.
Also, it seems that if you reserve Sonic the Hedgehog for the 360/PS3 at EBGames, you get a free Sonic plushie.
That last bit may not be news, per say, but it's still kinda cool.

Even though I may be editorializing here, I'd be safe to say this has been too long in coming.
Sonic Riders is apparently being released on the PC. Why the PC? I don't know.

SONIC THE HEDGEHOG GETS ARCHIVE SERIES
Press Release
In 1993, Sonic the Hedgehog sped his way from video games to comic books. Almost 200 issues later, "the blue blur" can lay claim to having the most successful comic book career of all video game heroes! Now you can travel back in time to where it all began in SONIC THE HEDGEHOG ARCHIVES, a thrilling series of upscale reprints that lets you revisit Sonic's early days in a premium yet affordable format. These special 5 x 7 & ½ inch editions contain 112 action-packed pages, faithfully re-colored and printed on superior stock, with a low cover price of only $7.49 US!
Picking up where the SONIC THE HEDGEHOG: THE BEGINNING trade paperback left off (which reprinted the original Sonic mini-series issues #0 through #3), SONIC THE HEDGEHOG ARCHIVES #1 ships in November and dives right into the action, starting with the first issue of Sonic's ongoing comic book series all the way up through issue #4. Following on its heels in December is SONIC THE HEDGEHOG ARCHIVES #2, representing issues #5 through #8.
Is it true that Sonic was originally supposed to be a rabbit with extendable ears? If so, he could've been "Maurice the Bunny"
About Manic and Sonia: Is it only in the "Archie Universe" that they are Sonic and Sally's children? Because, in the Sonic Underground series they're siblings. Is it just a universe switch that makes them siblings in one, and father, mother/children in another?
