ESRB: Sonic and now Ecco

It's really a shame that the ESRB doesn't have an RSS feed. They are quickly becoming the de facto standard for XBLA leaks. Today, IGN UK brings us the word that Sonic the Hedgehog (I assume the classic version) has been submitted to the ESRB for a rating. This supports the "rumor" (when do they ever turn out to be false?) that classic Sonic was on its way to XBLA via a SEGA Vintage Collection.

The new bit though was the additional submission of Ecco the Dolphin. Looks like animal lovers of the Genesis age can begin their celebrations...and their waiting.

I really don't care much about Ecco but, Sonic will be a nice addition to the arcade. And please someone bring Ristar and Dynamite Headdy too!!!

There's a streets of rage

There's a streets of rage rumor. I have it somewhere in the archives of my old site. It was a very feint rumor though.

I would love to see the "strike" games, I forgot about those. EA it's like printing money... DO IT!

re: Road Rage

Just over a year ago, a "leaked" (probably faked) partnernet screen shot was found that had Road Rage on it! Unfortunately it was when I was new at the site and was stupid enough not to save a copy. There were a couple of hints as to why I still think it might not have been a fake...

Well as we all know,

Well as we all know, screenshot or it didn't happen. LOL. I would think Road Rage on live would be a no-brainer.

photoshop or it didn't

photoshop or it didn't happen =D

It's out
Well, Streets of Rage is out on the Wii already so... if this news of Sonic and Ecco being released on XBLA is any indication of Sega publishing multiplatform then we might see Streets of Rage on XBLA. But please please, bring Street of Rage 2 only. The first one... not so good.
The first Streets of Rage

The first Streets of Rage was great what are you talking about!?

And everyone's getting their words mixed up its Road Rash not Rage!

You are *so* right...I can't

You are *so* right...I can't believe I messed that up...Road Rash (or was it "2") was one of my favorites on the Genesis.
