GCA FIRST: We can confirm an exclusive[i] Sonic title for the GameCube.[/i]

The Advanced Media Network can confirm that there is an exclusive GameCube title in the works from SEGA, called Sonic Gems Collection. The game, which was kept secret until now, will be fully playable at E3.

Expect more on this GameCube exclusive title later this week!

Hmm...

Yeah, there was a post about this a little while ago... I'd still call it a rumor, though.

Not a rumor: http://cube.ign.com/articles/614/614801p1.html

Ok. I wonder what the games list will be... will it have all of the older Sonic games not in the last collection (not that there are all that many of them)?

Sonic CD and Sonic Fighters are confirmed so far. They'll be playable at E3.

Yeah, but what were the other Sonic games missing from the first collection.. we had a list... anything other than Sonic, the arcade game and Knuckles Chaotix?

Not sure.

In an ideal world it would have all the games from the PS2 version of Sonic Mega Collection along with Sonic CD, Sonic Fighters, and Knuckles Chaotix.

And in an ideal world Revolution will launch with Super Mario Anthology and include every Mario game from the original Donkey Kong all the way to Mario Sunshine. :p

"All the games" means The Ooze and Comix Zone. GC has all the others in that collection... and really, The Ooze isn't that great. It's unique, and kind of fun, but not worth making a huge fuss over... Comix Zone is pretty cool, though. It'd be nice.

Oh, and as I said, I'd love to see the Sonic arcade game... I mean, not because it was a great game (average really -- it's isometric 2d I believe), but because it was never brought to consoles.

Awesome.

Just Sonic CD, Sonic the Fighters, and Sonic R? That'd be too bad, they also need Knuckles Chaotix at least...

I'm happy with it. And look at Sonic R... those are really improved graphics. And new tracks, I think.

Quote:Sonic Gems Collection brings several classic games to the GameCube. The compilation includes Sonic CD, Sonic Championship, Sonic R, and six Sonic Game Gear titles. Sega also promises some extra features. No release date was given for the game.

Yup, that's all we get. :( ... well, and six GG games, but those were all in Sonic Adventure DX already, right?

I didn't think Sonic R was very good, but maybe that's because I sucked at it. I still have it for my Saturn. Anyone remember the music?:D

Can you feel the sunshine
Doesn't it brighten up your day
Can you feel the sunshine
You just need to get away


I've never played Sonic CD (I hear it's the best Sonic game) or Sonic Championship so I'll definitely pick this up.

Yeah Sonic R didn't get the best reviews. But I'll buy the compilation for Sonic CD and Fighters.
