Sonic for PS3 delayed -- it's like rain on your wedding day
Did we seriously just quote Alanis Morissette? It seems so, but think about it: Sonic, a very very fast hedgehog, is delayed... so, so, so, he's got to like, slow down. Isn't it ironic, don't you think? Ahem. Back to things that make sense. Sonic is going to miss launch day. By a bit. So, for those of you crazy speed fanatics craving the latest in the blue blur's adventures, sorry. Expect it "sometime this holiday season". Interestingly, IGN capitalized holiday, as if the word "Holiday" actually refers to a single, important event. Being PC is lame, but insulting people is even more so.Why did Sonic get pushed back? While we'd like to think the game is undergoing reconstruction after the XBox Live demo incited massive movements against the game, that probably isn't it. Sega claims that they need more time to incorporate downloadable content. Stages? Items? ...Why not just give us a full, complete game? Downloading stages would not be cool. Unless they're optional, bonus, multiplayer... whatever. Oddly enough, downloadable content will be available on day one of the PS3 launch -- probably the demo. Keep your fingers crossed for a December release and a tweaked camera.

Sony's just trying to keep up with Nintendo again, since Elebits got pushed back...
But seriously, I love teh Sony. It was just a joke!

For the twenty millionth time, rain on your wedding day is not an example of irony, and niether is the Sonic game getting delayed. Sonic is a very fast game. It would be a shame if they released the game prematurely and it ended up having such brutal framerate issues that it made Sonic appear to be walking, rather than running. If fact, I'd say that a blue hedgehog that is only capable of a brisk power walk is itself ironic. I'm glad they are holding off a while to give the game some pollish, but the game will still end up extremely glitchy and unappealing. Also ironic.

It's nice to see blogs everywhere are following IGN in posting about this, but come on, the game page at Sega.com had the release date delayed since a month now.
