In North America, that is. You Europeans and Japanese have another week to wait. In the meantime, I’ve started putting up pages of various aspects of the game. It’ll be  a while before it’s all up, but I’m constantly working on it! Now that it’s out I’m moved the Sonic and the Black Knight subforum out of upcoming Sonic games and into current Sonic games. Head over to the forums, register, and start talking about the game!

Only two issues left until the epic showdown between Sonic and Dr. Eggman in issue number 200! How exciting!

“Egg Phoenix Down”: The countdown to the epic Sonic the Hedgehog #200 continues! Sonic leads the fully assembled Freedom Fighters and Chaotix on an invasion of Dr. Robotnik’s city, but the doctor unleashes a terrifying new weapon that may make their fight a short one!

With the game coming out to a majority of American retailers tomorrow, the excitement is high! As I’ve done with the past few games to be released, I’ll start putting up pages of info about the various items and features in the game tomorrow afternoon/night when I start playing. (Hopefully, unlike the other games, I won’t stop after about a week and leave everything partially completed). Let’s do it to it!

The official wallpaper for this month of March is a sketch of Sonic from Sonic and the Black Knight! Head over to Sonic Channel to download it, but wait! There’s more!

Archie has put out some nifty wallpapers that feature the covers of a few of the comics. You can browse through them over at their site. You’ll find them amidst some of the other Archie comic wallpapers.
