[Update 6/10/07: Good thing we snagged that screen grab of the ESRB's listing because, whaddya know, the Xbox 360 is no longer listed as an upcoming platform. Thanks for the note, SSUK!]

"Is it bad that this is one of my favorite games of all time?"
No, I think that proves you have good taste in platformers. ;)
I wonder if it hits XBLA if it will get the same graphic and audio enhancements several other classics have gotten. I'd buy it again if it had new graphics and remixed music. Otherwise, no thanks, I'll just play the Collection on my PS2.

@ 4
"you can get them all for GC OR Xbox for about $15 used, so i wouldn't"
I know what your saying however if it has enhanced graphics plus the added bonus of achievements and live then this will be a must for all Sonic fans.

Who knows, this might actually be a sequel to the forsaken Sonic the Hedgehog.

Milkshake: oh rly you beat Pacman?
This was the first game I owned and its soundtrack still tugs my heartstrings. I might get it on VC, but will be pissed if Xbox360 gets some nice souped up version.
Maybe in this Sonic game the load times will be down to 3 minutes tops.

@ Jonathan
as I said, I beat/clocked it. On the Atari it would get to level 99 or whatever and would go back to level 1 again so yes me and my brother would play it all the time back in the golden days, anyways the 360 is like the Atari for me again as I get to play my brother and whoop him all over again on live.

@ #1 - No. Not at all.
I'll be picking up the 360 version because there will most likely be online multiplayer and (maybe) minor graphical upgrades.

I already have this on two compilations- Sega Genesis Collection for the PSP and Sonic Mega Collection Plus for the OG Xbox- so I'm not interested. I want Daytona USA, Daytona USA 2, Sega Rally 1 and 2, and Virtua Racing on XBLA, then I'll be interested. Make it happen, Sega.

Cool, but now I don't see the point of ever buying the VC version. Is Sega going to be doing this with all their Genesis titles? Also, I doubt they'll redo the sound/gfx.

Yeah, just buy the Sonic Mega Collection Plus for Xbox OG for a few freakin bucks off the internet. It has almost all the good Sonic games, all the 2d ones, anyway.

Sweet, if its coming to the 360 maybe Sonic 3 and Knuckles will follow suit. Also if they change anything I think they should leave the graphics alone and just put in Wood Zone and Hidden Palace Zone. For those of you who don't know there were 5-6 levels that were cut from the final version. The two that were ever close to being complete were Hidden Palace Zone which was very diffrent from the S3&K one and Wood Zone.

First game I owned ever with Achievements? They've got me.
I really can't choose a favorite of those first 3 or 4 Sonic games... I've gone through phases of each. Currently the original is my favorite which is also coming to XBLA... man XBLA been doing pretty good lately, I hope it continues to pick up steam.

OHHHH MYY GOD! Sonic 2 is like my favorite game ever! I was totally pumped about the Wii version, but a 360 version too?!?! With achievements?!?! OMFG!

I doubt it'll have achievements; it'll just be an emulation, not a rewrite of the code or anything.
Love the ideas above for possible achievements though!

This has got to be be the best of the sonic Genesis games (with Sonic3 right behind it). To this day, I still can't beat the damn last boss.

The best is the lock-on game Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Some of the levels in the Sonic 3 portion of the game piss me off (Carnival Night), but it's mostly pretty good. The bosses are creative, the levels are colorful, and the music is upbeat and fun. Since the two of them were originally intended to be one game anyway, I hope that Sega releases them as one on VC and XBLA, because if they sell them separately then some of the story is lost and it just isn't the same.
Sonic 2 comes in a close second place as my favorite, but it's just too short, and Sonic didn't move as quickly as in 3&Knuckles.
