The good Major has announced that Xbox LIVE Marketplace’s Xbox LIVE Arcade on the Xbox 360 will be bolstered by the addition of two new titles tomorrow in the form of the classic SEGA Mega-Drive/Genesis platformer Sonic & Knuckles, as well as the second episode of the Wallace and Gromit episodic adventure game series, entitled The Last Resort.
The story of Sonic & Knuckles includes the coming together of “sworn adversaries” in Sonic 3, the “blue hedgehog [Sonic] and the red echidna [Knuckles]” in an attempt to defeat Dr. Eggman (also known as Dr. Robotnik) and “acquire the priceless Master Emerald and save Angel Island.”
“Experience the speed of Sonic and the power of Knuckles in this great adventure from the Sonic The Hedgehog series!”
For those of you who can remember as far back as 1994, and were lucky enough to own a SEGA Mega Drive/Genesis console, the name of the classic platformer, Sonic & Knuckles, might just send you into a daydream of nostalgia.
You can awake from your slumber, however, as it’s been announced that Sonic & Knuckles, the only game to feature a blue hedgehog and red echidna on a retail box, will be making an appearance on Xbox LIVE Arcade (XBLA) next Wednesday, or September 9th to be clear.
Not only that, but if you already own Sonic the Hedgehog 1, 2 and 3 on XBLA, you’ll be able to access special bonus content in each of those games if you decide to part with your precious MS Points and buy Sonic & Knuckles. What kind of bonus content? Look below to find out:
