Hobby Consolas Namedrops Next Sonic for 360 Release, at Least
The first specific mention of Sonic Generations may not have necessarily happened this afternoon when domain names were found. It may have occurred in a place few would expect.
Spanish website Sonic Paradise learned today the latest edition of Spain based Hobby Consolas magazine made the first mention in its Q&A section in its latest issue, and the website has a scan for your review. A reader asked about any future Sonic, Panzer Dragoon, and Clockwork Knight titles in the pipeline. Only Sonic was singled out, and that’s where Sonic Generations was first namedropped.
The magazine evidently singled out the XBOX 360 as a confirmed console, but to be clear, that does not mean this will be exclusive to the system as far as we’re aware.
Sega has remained silent on the matter. We will bring you more as it becomes available. If you know something regarding Sonic Generations and can prove it, we urge you to contact us via our News Tips system.

it better NOT be exclusive to 360. sonic has plenty of fans on the ps3, including me, even if the ps3 versions of sonic dont sell as well as 360 or wii.
Sonic Generations?….well thats better than sonic gauntlet
I think there’s a pattern going on with the domain regisrations. Like, for instance, Sonicthehedgehog4.com registered, BOOM!!! 2 weeks later, Sonc 4 announced. Sonicfreeriders.com, then, BAM!!!! Sonic free riders announced a week later. Does this mean Sonic Generations is going to announced in a few.weeks?
@penguithing777: If it was on the Wii, I’d pull the “Sonic sells better on Nintendo hardware” card. But since it says “Xbox Exclusive”, I dunno what to say…
I doubt it’ll be 360-exclusive. If its on 360 it’ll AT LEAST be on PS3, as well.
im sure it wouldnt be a 360 exclusve for the 20th annv. game that might p people off.
@ UltimaHedgie. I agree, sega won’t do that, unless they are still mad at Sony for dominationg the DC Ha ha lol. Nah they are always fair in this case, 360 maybe just the first to confirm this. It will most likely be released on other platforms, however I hope they work real good on this release!
Hopefully we get 360, PS3, PSP2, and possibly Wii.
Damn i wish i hadn’t read this, getting excited for the announcement now (if it happens!)
So glad its going to be on 360, was gutted colours wasnt, and when Anniversary was first rumored 360 was the only console not listed, so im happy haha
Roll on the announcement! =D
Thee Dee Ess!
@sonikdude101, ya could be!
And now I’m reconsidering on selling my PS3…
@Sonikdude101 – I hope not! That might be a coincidence. I mean think about it. When project NeedleMouse came up, wasn’t there a site called like “ProjectNeedleMouse/secret.com” or something like that? It said that Project NeedleMouse was going to be like a twisted version of Sonic 1 where Eggman goes back in time to the first Sonic or something? Then about a week later, Sega brought up Sonic 4.
So what I am hoping, is that “Sonic Generations” is just a disguise title.
What are you talking about?! Eggman going back in time? You lost me there.
Malcolm McDowell guest voices Dr.Eggman and Old Sonic falls off a bridge in the climax.
@sonic52789
What should it be named then name expert? As a game that apparently is comprised of remakes of levels over the last 20 years Generations is fitting title. The Sonic 4 domain leaked months Project Needlemouse’s announcement
its not a exclusive on 360 Sega have learned their mistake of releasing on 360 when the fans were on other console the ps3 and the Wii but not on 360 its a hardcore console with only fps games i have see so far and its outdated console graphics i pretty sure it will excursive with Nintendo again and maybe on ps3 but i have heard their are 2 exclusive one for Nintendo and Sony, since now sony have updated the graphics library on ps3, i have notice with killzone 2 and 3 and crysis 2 on all 3 version while ps3 and pc are the same but lower resolution but the whole point of this all developers are using Nvidia programmable shaders for now until amd release something new but Nvidia have all that in the bag favorable by all dev. on all sides with tegra cuda cg4 and Fermi
@Sonikdude101 – That’s what it said on the fake site for Sonic 4.
@Dr. Eggmanfang – What I’m saying is that it’s not going to be a remake at all. You could think differently if you want but what I Believe is that “Sonic Generations” is a disguise title. Sega is hiding the real game.
Maybe “Sonic Generations” is “Sonic Anniversary.”
Anyway, I really hope this Sonic game (if it exists) isn’t a 360 exclusive. 360 fans already have Sonic Free Riders for that (despite that itwas bashed by critics).
It’s not going to be 360 only. I’d bet on a PS3, Wii, and 3DS version as well. This is the big 20th Anniversary game, after all.
@sonic52789: What fake Sonic 4 site? Give me a link. Also, your “disguise title” theory is hilarious.
guys do u think this game would have a story line cos i dont want it to be just a complication game
I can’t help but feel the name is kind of boring. Of course, that doesn’t matter at all if the game is good. I can’t wait to see what it is.
I also can’t help but think this is somehow related to that mystery ‘visit session’ Sega had the other day, even though they insisted it was for internal use only…
SEGA has announced JUST today that sometime THIS week, something big is coming to the Sonic the Hedgehog Facebook fan page!
keep an eye out on Facebook. The “Sonic The Hedgehog” page just said that something big is coming this week.
I’m super excited about this. Well… I always super/mega/hyper excited about some new Sonic Game, but THANKS GOD (SEGA) that it wiil come out for the 360º , I own a wii too but I rather buy it and have it for the Xbox360.
Hope this will be the best Sonic game ever made!
SEEEEGGGAAAA
Argh. More announcements of announcements. *facepalm*
At least they said it’d be on Thursday, so I don’t have to be obsessively checking FB every day…it will be bad enough checking it every ten minutes when the day comes
I had a feeling it was gonna be a good week. First Captivate 2011 tomorrow and then thursday comes the Sonic announcements. Very Exciting.
Just waiting, now, for that Facebook announcement…
Oh, my birthday is on Thursday, April 7 1990. I’m going be 21 years old! Can’t wait to see new Sonic game this week!
At least bring Alexis “Lex” Brown from Straight Line Stitch to do Alternative Rock Cover songs of the Sonic R Tracks, Can You Feel the Sunshine, Living in the City etc. She’s an amazing singer! And I Sonic and the Black Knight can bring All End’s “Emma Gelotte”, they can bring Lex! or Maria Brink from In This Moment and The Rodriguez Sisters from Eyes Set To Kill, I would also recommend Meg and Dia Frampton.
FB quote: “Sonic’s 20th Anniversary is this year, but SEGA start celebrating on Thurs 7th April – and you’ll only find out how here on Facebook!”
Hooray. Information.
im gonna laugh if on thursday they just say “Just kidding! XD”
Pre-emptive strike: No, we’re not covering Sega’s announcement formally today. We don’t cover announcements of announcements here, especially vague ones like that. We will, however, cover whatever they reveal on Thursday (which, honestly, I don’t think will be related to Generations.)
-T
@Ryan happy birthday, even though I’m early
Thursday it is. sega, do NOT disappoint us.
@Penguithing: Spoilers. You’re going to be disappointed.
@Sonikdude101 – My “disguise title” is hilarious? Cool! I love making people laugh! BTW Sega used a disguise title before with NeedleMouse (does that make you laugh?).
@penguithing777 – I will tell you one thing, if it is “Sonic Generations”, I will be disappointed. Come on Sega, I know you won’t let us down.
@penguithing Dude, has a video game ever been announced on Facebook? I’m seriously doubting it’s a video game announcement. It’s more likely to be an announcement of a celebration Sega has planned.
my bad penguithing, i didn’t read your comment correctly, you didn’t say anything about a new game being revealed on thurs.
@sonic52789: Yeah, i sure as hell thought your delusional theory was funny. Still think Sonic Adventure 3 is happening? Spoilers: lt’s not. Also, project needlemouse was not a “disguise title”, it was a codename sega gave to sonic 4, because they didn’t know at the time what they wanted to call the game. Also, still waiting on that fake sonic 4 site link. Unless you made it up, woulden’t be the first time.
I remembered how some fans got pissed about Sonic Colors being exclusive to the Wii. I count myself lucky to havea Wii at that time. But now I really hope Sega doesn’t do that exclusive thing again. It would seem fair to release it on all consoles.
@Sonikdude101 – Hey could you please stop mocking me? Come on, what do you go to this site for? Me, or Sonic.
@Sonikdude101 – And BTW, I can’t find the “fake” Sonic 4 link, because it’s about a year old, and I haven’t looked at it since.
@Sonic52789: Yeah, like it was real in first place. Also, who said i was mocking you? Your attempt at trying to prove that sonic adventure 3 was “real” failed.
