Nostalgia fans, you are in for a treat today. SEGA released the OG Sonic the Hedgehog game to Google Play today for $2.99. If you were the owner of a SEGA Genesis, there is no way you didn’t play this game. On the game page, SEGA states this is the full title, plus some exclusive features, such as the ability to play as Knuckles and Tails. 

Like I said, it’s $3 on Google Play. Go get it now.

SEGA Launches Classic Sonic the Hedgehog to Google Play is a post from: Droid Life

When I was growing up, Sonic the Hedgehog for the SEGA Genesis (16-bit if you care to know) was all the rage at my house. My older brother would allow me to watch him play it for hours and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Sometimes I was lucky enough to play it myself, but I wasn’t all that good at that age. Sonic is one of the most popular game characters of all time, ranking up there with Zelda and even Mario. With 80 million copies of the games sold, SEGA continues to keep his legacy alive with this newest addition, Sonic the Hedgehog 4 Episode II. 

When played on a Tegra 3-powered device, the game looks fantastic and performs like a well caffeinated circus monkey. The only drawback I had with the actual gameplay is the slow controllability you have over your character. When you press either left or right on the screen, Sonic sort of takes a second to start moving. If you’re underwater, running out of air and you hear that five second countdown music, you’re basically screwed. Although, if you happen to be a passionate mobile gamer and make use of a Bluetooth controller, you’ll be just fine.

For die hard Sonic and SEGA lovers, this game is going to make you feel right at home. The levels are long, just the right amount of challenging, and it looks superb. The game costs a whopping $7 in the Play Store though, so that alone may stop people from giving it a try.

I can imagine Kip Dynamite’s excitement after hearing this one. Episode 1 of Sonic the Hedgehog 4 is finally available for Android. After being an exclusive to iOS (how many times have we said before?), we have another great game to spend our precious time on. Sonic 4 picks up right where Sonic and Knuckles left off. Burn through these levels and fight that jerk Dr. Eggman and show him who’s boss. For just $4, you’re going to be reliving the best years of your life.
