The infamous original design for Sonic has made yet another cameo appearance in a show completely unrelated to Sonic as a whole. Unfortunately he's made his way into the very disturbing Netflix adult animated series called Big Mouth. Yes, you've read that correctly the disgusting show about teenagers going through puberty. If you've watched this show before then you're already aware that many people are off put by the art style of the show and premise as a whole. They've somehow managed to make Ugly Sonic look even worse! I don't know the context of what was going on in the story and why Ugly Sonic was there. Quite frankly I'm afraid to even find out and watch the episode because I've always felt odd watching it. I suppose it's normal given the context of the show. If you're curious to see what he looks like, just click on the Disturbing Sonic link, just don't say I didn't warn you.

April Fools day was yesterday, and Sega hardly ever sleeps on this Holiday. For this year's April Fools day, Sonic Team created a brand new free to download Steam game titled "The Murder of Sonic The Hedgehog." This is Sonic's first official visual novel title where you play as your own original character and figure out who killed our beloved blue hedgehog! This is the first time Sonic Team created a interactive Sonic the Hedgehog April Fools Day joke, in previous years they've made fake trailers for fake game announcements. It is currently standing at a perfect 10 out of 10 stars on Steam. Have you played this title yet? I have yet to actually give it a go, I'm not a fan of visual novel video games and I never download and play them. However, since this is a Sonic title I will be giving it a go when my new computer comes in later this week! Check out the Steam page in the link bellow and give it a go! Let us know how you liked the game!

It appears that yesterday a new rating for a game titled "Sonic Origins Plus" appeared from South Korea. Sonic Origins was a compilation of the 16-bit Sonic titles that came out on the franchise's 31st anniversary last year. We're not sure what Plus will add to the game, but I really hope that the 8-bit Sonic titles will be added to the collection, along with Knuckles Chaotix. Knuckles Chaotix has not seen a re-release since 2007, and that was on the now defunct Game Tap streaming service so it's been lost to time. The title also goes for a hefty price, since it was initially only released on the ill fated Sega 32X add-on. Perhaps we will see Mighty, Ray, and even possibly Amy be added to these titles? Knuckles isn't officially a playable character in Sonic CD on this collection, so he may even be added to the roster in this updated version of the game. What are you hoping to see in Sonic Origins Plus? Let us know your thoughts below!

This entire week has been filled with drama between both the Sonic Community and the Genshin Impact community, both eagerly trying to get their favorite game to win Player's Choice in the VGA. The results were no longer being shown to the public, leaving fans of both franchises having to wait until the results were shown during a live stream last night. (Or early Friday morning for those who live outside the US.) Prior to the results being shown public, both games were tied at number one but only one game could win. Sadly, Sonic Frontiers wasn't the game that came up top. Still seeing a Sonic game make it as far as it did is refreshing. Yes it is disappointing that a game that's three years old beat Sonic Frontiers, but we should be thankful and happy that the blue blur made it to the finals! Sonic Frontiers managed to beat AAA titles such as Elden Ring, and God of War Ragnarok when it comes to player choice, that alone is a big deal!

We finally got some gameplay footage of Sonic Frontiers via IGN on Wednesday as well as today! Sonic Frontiers is the blue blur's first open world game, which isn't too surprising since many triple a titles are going down that open world route. This is the month of Sonic, and while we knew we were going to get some information this month we had no clue we wouldn't have to wait until the Summer Game Fest to see Frontiers footage! In the first gameplay trailer, we got a glimpse into how Sonic interacts with the new environment. Familiar objects such as grinding rails and springs are still here but it looks like the player will have to solve puzzles in order to progress. There are also new collectibles such as coins and fruit that appear throughout the map. We'll have to wait to see exactly what each power up does though!
Now let's talk about the other gameplay footage we've got today. In this next portion, IGN showed off the combat in the game as well as some new enemies! These look completely different from the typical badniks and "Eggman Robots" from past games. Sonic also seems to be sporting some new moves, instead of rolling into a ball to attack his enemies he's kicking and performing new tricks to deal blows! After defeating enemies, there's yet another new collectible that Sonic can collect which are blue shards. Could it be that Eggman might not be the main protagonist of Frontiers? Perhaps he's teaming up with a new enemy and this new enemy has a robot army of his own? We'll have to wait and see future updates! Here is the combat trailer IGN posted today. What are your thoughts on Sonic Frontiers?
