    Gamescom 2017 SEGA Tags in New Sonic Forces Gameplay

    Tag, you're it

    SEGA’s showcased the new Tag gameplay set to add a little variety to the upcoming Sonic Forces.

    Meet new enemy Infinite

    What the heck is this? SEGA’s announced Sonic Forces’ latest villain Infinite with a bizarre trailer that starts out with edgy rap music and then turns into some kind of cheesy, sitcom-esque cut-scene. “WHOA!

    Full-blown Sonic set to release 2017 on PS4

    Sonic Forces! That's the name of the game previously referred to as Project Sonic 2017 which was announced during that sh*tshow of a livestream last year. And the first gameplay footage shown at SXSW earlier this evening is looking… Pretty rad. It's a speedy, set-piece laden sequence – but the visuals...
