IGN reports that Sonic the Hedgehog is no longer a PS3 launchgame. Apparently the game is now set for a release during the holiday season. SEGA says that they need a bit more time to incorporate downloadable content. The upside is that there will be downloadable content available at the game’s release in December.

An exact date hasn’t been given but we’ll definitely see it before 2007, possibly in early December.
