Sonic Boom Video Game

Good news for Sonic the Hedgehog video game fans.  Sega shows no signs of slowing down in the Sonic the Hedgehog video game franchise series and has announced a new game -- Sonic Boom.  This video game will be like no other Sonic the Hedgehog video game.  Out of the previous 70 Sonic the Hedgehog video games, this will be a different type video game in more ways than one.  For starters, this game will be a multi-media project.  In addition to playing the video game Sonic Boom, you will be able to look at the animated television show that will also be available.  Additionally, there will be a new toy line as well.

The Sega producer of Sonic Boom, Stephen Frost, has been working with developers and others to make this game as fun and creative as other Sonic games.  It helps that Stephen Frost is a long-time Sonic video game player himself, who has the goal to bring a lot of what he has envisioned for the Sonic video game franchise to fruition.

Here's what you can expect when Sonic Boom is released.  This action-adventure video game will concentrate on exploration and combat.  There will be 4 playable characters that you can control:  They are:  Sonic the Hedgehog, Miles "Tails" Prower, Knuckles the Echidna and Amy Rose.

You will also use collaboration during your video game play since you are able to switch among various characters. Other changes include levels being connected to each other -- so when you leave one level, there will be some semblance of where you have left.  Even though there are similarities between the TV series and the video game -- the game will go a step further and take you to places and adventures that you will not see or experience on the TV series.
