Sonic really has been in some shit down the years. That god-awful early 90s cartoon series. The bloody horrendous werewolf game. That time he murdered an Emerald Hill Zone hooker. We kid, we kid. Nothing, though, tops a monstrosity of a 2004 McDonald’s advert which aired in Pakistan. In it, our miscoloured hedgehog tries to shill the most comically misshapen, crappy toys you’ve ever seen. Just wait until you see the CG. It’ll scar your eye holes for the rest of eternity...
In North America and Europe Sonic Unleashed is exploding on every viable console on the market with a PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii, and PlayStation 2 version that Japan isn't getting. Sega of Japan plans to release Sonic: World Adventure (renamed to better fit Sonic's journey around the Earth and downplay the Werehog thing?) only on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and Wii. The PlayStation 2 port will be completed before Sonic: World Adventure launches in Japan so this begs the question why is Sega passing on it? It's not like Sega Japan is abandoning the PlayStation 2 entirely. Thunderforce VI comes out on Thursday in Japan and unless Sega has anything secretly planned it will be the final PlayStation 2 game published by Sega in the region.
