Not only is he the fastest thing alive, but now he may also be the lightest! Dancing off your Dreamcast and jumping into the sky, Sonic the Hedgehog is ready to set the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade afire.
Joining the ranks of such noticeables as Snoopy and Garfield, Sonic joins newcomer Jimmy Newtron high above New York to bring in this year's Thanksgiving. Be sure to catch the parade in-person or on television as Sonic celebrates his tenth anniversary in style!

It seems thatt well known PC and Dreamcast emulator maker Bleem! has gone under. Anither just as noticable thing is the picture on the main page, which features a gravestone and Sonic standing next to it crying. This is probably to signify the death of their DC emulators, but I'll follow up if I find anything else out.

I have read in a magazine that the guy who created sonic actually was quoted to have said "i'd love to see sonic in a future smash brothers type game" more info later
Sega.com says SA2 battle is going to be released in January 2002, which is one month after the Japanese version. I still ain't gonna buy one :)
Sega has released their newest creation: The Sega Instant Messenger! It's free to everyone with a Sega.com, SegaNet, or Segasports.com account (no, you don't have to pay the $10 monthly fee, according to their website)
Here's what the site said
"The Sega Instant Messenger (IM) is a PC application that offers real-time chat between Sega.com members worldwide. It's a lot like other IM programs out there, but with one big difference -- it's strictly for Sega fans. Best of all, it's free to all SegaNet Subscribers and registered members of Sega.com!"

I was just at the TeamArtail site and went into the petition board and got this message. "The Petition has been removed due to abuse. Besides, there are SatAM episodes being released on VHS & DVD on 2/26/2002 so the sales of those will do the talking if we want the rest of the series to be released. Sorry that immature people had to ruin this petition, but at least one goal has been achieved, whether due to the petition or not, I don't know, but there isn't a need for it anymore. Thanks to all who supported it." So it does seem that the petition is now off the net.
thre is a game calld sonic mars for 32x for reals it is not sega mars

You can download a video that contains previously unseen* footage from the Beta version of Sonic Adventure, including a different version of the Ice Cap stage and a missing Amy stage! There is also a picture that is believed to be concept art of Sonic's Dreamcast incarnation.

Sega has gotten a burn in the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly. Read the following from Swirlvision to get the goods.
In the newest issue of the pop-culture mag, Entertainment Weekly, EW staffers highlighted the 100 top holiday gift ideas. Among the videogame systems and games making the cut were the Game Boy Advanced (45th place), Dance Dance Revolution (47th place), retro videogame packages (69th place), and the unholy trio, the PS2, X-Box, and Gamecube (34th place). The Sega Dreamcast unforunately made the "What Not to Give" list, which probably means EW staffers are too cool for graphics of near-PS2 caliber and a library of nearly twice as many games (at this point) for what soon will be 1/6th the price... whatever.
Joining the DC on the WNTG list (You didn't hear? EW says abbreviating stuff is in! If you don't abbreviate, you suck!) are Furbies, Cathy coffee mugs (Because there's no more Cathy comics! Get it?!? Those EW staffers SO have their fingers on the pulse of society!), Nad's hair removing gel, and the Ab Roller. That would be a pretty damn bad group to be a part of, if the HHG list didn't include Castaway Wilson volleyballs, lamps from Friends, silverware from Dawson's Creek, and the #1 ranked item, the George Foreman grill. Thanks but no thanks, EW... I'd rather sit on my inflatable furniture and water my Chia Pet, which both also made the WNTG list.
In other EW news, Britney Spears is cool, Buffy rules, and anything that hasn't been seen on TRL, or Will and Grace is lame.
Give me a break... well, fans probably won't care too much, if at all, anyway. Still, I felt this was worth noting.
