Anyone ever remember that time when Sega was supposed to transfer there iconic mascot to 3D in an astounding new way? and, I'm not talking about Sonic 3d Blast... no, that wasn't too good :-\

Anyways, I recently, in the last year or so, stumbled across this online... well, articles and stuff when looking for Saturn games, specifically a Sonic game, because it's Sega :p That's what you'd expect. it really peaked my curiosity, because it looked awesome. A demo was released on Sonic Jam, for the Saturn. I don't remember exactly why it was cancelled, but it was so close to being finished, that it just blows your mind.

Heres the wiki article (Yeah, wikipedia, whatever Tenser :p) :

Sonic X-treme - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonic_X-treme)

Well, I also discovered that this was released by one of the producers or something a few years back. As a beta of course, and now it's sort of an unofficial, internet hit... or was, there is crazy amounts of youtube videos all over the place on it.
Holy crap, all I have to say is "Wow!", how cool, is this game? I don't understand why the same song is on every level, but it's good, so who cares:talktohand:

YouTube- Broadcast Yourself.

It does look really confusing, and sort of hard to handle, but the recorders make you think otherwise, apparently it is simple control and inovative, kind of like... *Cough*, *Cough*; Mario Galaxy... I mean really, tell me, that this doesn't look similar to Mario Galaxy, I'm not accusing anything here, but there is some distinct similarities and qualities. I mean really? I'll admit that they are probably way different, but at a glance... I don't know...:dont-know:

YouTube- Broadcast Yourself.

Right now, I want to hunt down, how and where to get this, if it is an iso, and dang it, I will review it, if I get the chance!:pray:

If only, if they would release it now on Wiiware, XBLA or PSN whatever it is...

Doesn't look very innovative to me. I think Sonic Adventure was a much better 3D Sonic game. Of course I say that without ever playing this game, but I don't think it looks so hot.

Yeah they released a special XMAS disk of Nights into dreams with a sonic character secret in it. Was with Next Gen Mag, I had it was pretty cool, you know this was for demo purposes to see if the 3d sonic would work.
