25 Years of Sonic - Video (#206)

Continuing on with the Sonic 25th Anniversary posts I suppose; a couple days ago Sega released a short 1 and a half minute video chronicling a little journey through all of Sonic's major video game appearances since his debut in 1991. It's a cool little video and it shows that Sega has no problem with poking fun at itself, especially when the video gets to Sonic 06 and simply shows a 'now loading' screen. Oddly enough though, some games that I count as major instalments in the series weren't in the video, such as Shadow the Hedgehog, Sonic and the Secret Rings and Sonic and the Black Knight weren't in the video, although to be fair they weren't considered as very good games by a majority of people. I think the weirdest part is that Sonic Lost World didn't appear, mainly since the music playing in the video is actually the main theme of that game, but whatever, it's an awesome little video nonetheless. The end also teases a game celebrating Sonic's 25th... I'm hoping that'll be announced next month :D

Check out the video here.

All of the main games in the Sonic franchise.
