Now you too can smell like a chili eating hedgehog or sweaty muscle man.

You ever just sit back and ponder what Sonic the Hedgehog would smell like? He's known for eating chili dogs, so would he smell like that or something else? He also likes running through lush green landscapes, so would he perhaps smell instead like freshly washed laundry drying in a summer breeze? It really makes you think, doesn't it?

Thankfully, Sega is here to save us all from life's greatest mystery....

How well can a block do a spin dash?

Despite what one mentally stunted individual might be saying on Twitter these days, Minecraft is very much alive and doing quite well for itself. In fact, the game has never been more popular. It's also now the only place where you will be able to celebrate Sonic the Hedgehog's 30th anniversary in style (since Sega themselves won't have anything new until 2022).

Mojang and Sega have partnered up to create a special piece of Sonic themed...

Plus Sonic returns to the Olympics.

Today, Sonic Central held a stream that revealed a number of new projects featuring none other than Sonic the Hedgehog. These announcements were all centered around the 30th anniversary celebration of the franchise. Let's take a quick look at what was announced during today's short stream.

Was revealed in a quickly pulled tweet.

Long before Sonic the Hedgehog ever appeared on the big screen, he was known for his video games and various animated series. Not letting the allure of Hollywood get to his head, it seems as though Sonic is headed back to the small screen. That is assuming a briefly public tweet from Netflix is to be believed.

In a tweet that Netflix has since deleted, the company revealed that they are working on a Sonic the Hedgehog 3D animated...

Japan has been the leader in game development for so long that some parts of the world believe all games are from this island country. The last few years haven’t been so kind to the gambling industry, though, since casino games from the west have become more prominent these days. That doesn’t mean Japanese consumers have totally deserted games developed by their own.


Here’s why Japan is regarded as a leader in the gaming world; Nintendo arcade and Classic Sega were developed...

Now this is a good looking hedgehog!

Back in April of this year, the first trailer for the Sonic the Hedgehog movie was unleashed upon the world. I say "unleashed" not because of the terrible Sonic Unleashed game, but because of the unspeakable horrors Sonic's movie design thrust upon an unsuspecting world.

A few days later, the movie's director, Jeff Fowler, said that they were going to make Sonic look less weird. In late May, the movie was officially delay...

On their own, each of these would make for a really short news post. Together, however, they make for one grand news post that any Sonic fan should be excited for. Yesterday, Sega announced that Sonic Mania would be getting a special re-release as Sonic Mania Plus.

This release will include the original Sonic Mania game, plus Mighty the Armadillo and Ray the Flying Squirrel added as playable characters, a new Encore mode, a four-player competition mode, special holographic...
