Something to Celebrate DC Anniversary
Amid increasing concern in the community as to whether the game was delayed, several news tipsters have written in to point us to Sega’s latest blog announcement on Sonic and Knuckles for XBOX Live.
In short, it is coming, and quite soon.
S&K will be out September 9th on XBOX Live Arcade in North America. It’s an important anniversary domestically, as 9.9.09 marks the tenth anniversary of 9.9.99–the date the last Sega console, Dreamcast, was released in the territory.
Lock-on technology to previous Sonic games, as was promised, will be a part of the package. You will have needed to purchase the previous Sonic titles on XBOX Live Arcade–mainly Sonic 1, 2, and 3–in order to take advantage.

cool, but I maybe buy Sonic Ultimate Genesis Collection…I must think hard, of what should I do
Good for Xbox gamers, but will it ever come come to Wii Virtual Console? =S
Sonic Unleashed : Well Sonic`s UGC is only 19.99 which Sonic 1-3 & Knuckles cost on Xbox Live I don`t know
■Edwin Shy@: hum.. right but SUGC have Sonic 1-3 & Knuckles plus47 other games
lol , but SUGC doesn’t have the lock on tecnology does it? I guess I’ll buy SUGC after S&SASR hehe 
As porte by Backbone Entertainment, who were also behind Sonic the Hedgehog: Genesis, lest people didn’t know.
And I who thought it already was out on Xbox live…
Werehog: Lol.XD
Lock on! YAY!XD
Also note Sonic Genesis Collection doesn’t have Sonic 3 and Knuckles, or Knuckles in Sonic 2 and Get Blue Sphares. The XBLA version of Sonic and Knuckles will if you already have Sonic 3, Sonic 2 and Sonic 1 on ya already.
Which I have them 3 sooooo….yay
explain to me please how you can use lock on tecnology be downloading all 4 Sonic games for XBLA, I can’t see how it works that way :S ??
Guys what can you tell me about SUGC, is it worth it? (I think so, but I want an opinion from somebody who owns the game), what extras it has?
SU: I believe if you have previous Sonic games downloaded to your XBOX 360 on XBOX Live Arcade, S&K will detect their presence and prompt you for a lock-on. Don’t quote me on that.
And SUGC is only worth your money if you haven’t played the other Sega titles on the disc. If you’re judging it on its Sonic merit alone, I don’t think it’s worth the money.

■Tristan Oliver @: interesting, ok tristan thank you very mutch
) and a Sega DreamCast Collection for the Xbox 360 (with SA1,2,DX) hehe
I barely can’t wait to S&SASR, and Sonic’ next big adventure (SU2 or something
Yet another game i’ll be pointlessly spending my money on. But for Sonic 3 & Knuckles 400 ms points is nothing, Especially since i already have Sonic 1,2 and 3 on my hard drive.
Yay! Sept 9th’s my B’day! ^.^ What a fantastic prezzie! lol
Tails@: I hope to have your luck Tails, that S&SASR comes out in my birthday 19th February (since it comes in February, I hope it is on the 19th) hehe
