If we could calculate how many hours of fun and frustration we have spent with Sonic over the years, I’m pretty sure it would be staggering.  Now we get to jump back in to some fast-paced, side-scrolling action as we once again go up against Dr. Eggman in SEGA’s upcoming game, “Sonic Superstars.”  If we were smart, we WOULDN’T buy this game because it will SURELY take us back down the Sonic rabbit hole and hours upon hours upon hours of gaming… BUT… we KNOW we will not be able to resist the allure of the Blue Blur. Check it out below.

A new spin on classic 2D Sonic platforming games with an all-new look, new abilities, new worlds to explore, 4-player co-op, and more for multiple generations of Sonic fans!
