Sonic Adventure 2 on XBLA Confirmed by SEGA

Sonic Adventure 2 on XBLA Confirmed by SEGA

Dreamcast port is now official

Written by litepink on 16 July 12 at 19:21 | Credit to Dobo1912KNIGHT

SEGA sarcastically stated in a press release, "In a totally unexpected, surprise announcement..." that Sonic Adventure 2 is heading to Xbox LIVE Arcade this year. The announcement was made at this year's Sonic Boom event at San Diego Comic-Con. Previously, we had learned of Sonic's Dreamcast swan song coming to XBLA through rampant rumors, and then a game page leak on xbox.com which featured some details and screenshots.

Now it is official. We don't know much besides that there will be upgraded HD visuals, leaderboards, and of course achievements. We also know that Sonic Adventure 2 is set to arrive later this year.

I did not like Sonic Adventure, but I will probably get this anyway just to show some Dreamcast love.

Only decent 3D Sonic IMO. As long as it has the music it is all good

Underrated game. A hell of a lot better than the first SA. Shame not many people played it. Well here's your chance!!

I did not enjoy the first Sonic Adventures but I've heard the second is a lot better. So I'll probably give it a try. I just hope it is better than the first or I will be disappointed at wasting my money.

Hated the first sonic adventure, but I'll get this cos I like playing the old school games, even if they were bad.

I played Sonic Adventure 2 back on the Gamecube and absolutely loved it; I played Sonic Adventure on XBLA and man is that game terrible in comparison. A decent enough game in its own right but Sonic Adventure 2 is 100x better. I urge anyone who is hesitant because of Sonic Adventure or any of the 360 Sonic titles to seriously buy the game. It's been #1 on my XBLA wishlist for YEARS.

Versus was awesome and can not wait to plat this again with my little bro for the sake of nostalgia. Day 1 no matter what.

I've been waiting for this for so long! Probably the best Sonic that ever existed, just hope this doesn't land in the same time as Halo and Assassin's Creed...

I only ever played the demo on Dreamcast (thought it was great) so will get this for sure. The only Dreamcast game I really want to see on XBLA is Skies of Arcadia though. Best game ever.
