Canceled Sonic Skateboarding Game Revealed, Looks Terrible
If there's one franchise that knows sub-par spinoffs more than any other, it's Sonic the Hedgehog. Whether it's a new hedgehog with a gun or Sonic falling in love with a human, Sega has gone above and beyond when it comes to killing any fond memories we had of the speedy rodent. A new video has surfaced of a Sonic skateboarding game for Xbox, and it looks predictably awful. In a rare act of discretion, it seems that a game in this series was actually deemed unsuitable for retail shelves.
Check out the video below.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
