Sonic the Hedgehog is a legend who has been around since 1991 when he was first seen on the SEGA Genesis! It is his 20th anniversary and he is still going strong. He is the world's fastest spinning hero who can't be stopped.

To celebrate his anniversary, SEGA is releasing a new game, Sonic Generations, featuring classic Sonic the Hedgehog AND modern day Sonic the Hedgehog characters.

"Sonic’s universe is thrown into chaos when a mysterious new power comes into force, creating ‘time holes’ which take Sonic and his friends back in time. Whilst there, Sonic runs into some very familiar characters from his past including a younger version of himself! Now they must team up to defeat their enemies, save their friends, and find out who is behind this diabolical deed."

Watch the official gameplay trailer from IGN...

Nice and bendable figures, it seems.

Hope Sonic is around for another 20 years!
