Everyone’s favorite blue, speedy daredevil is back in Sonic the Hedgehog 2 for iPhone and iPod touch. Follow Sonic and his new partner, Tails, on their mission to free their friends and stop the evil Dr. Robotnik from stealing the Chaos Emeralds!
Here are the headlines from Sega:
- Enjoy the classic gameplay you know and love from the original as an all-new experience with the unique touch screen features of the iPhone and iPod touch
- Defy gravity in hair-raising loop-de-loops, bounce like a pinball and race like lightning
- Play in full screen or classic “arcade” mode
Personally, I think sequels rarely better the original – and given Sonic was one of THE games that made the Megadrive the console to have when I was growing up, I’ll be hard pushed to see if Sonic 2 can be better. That said, I’m prepared to have my mind changed through some extensive playing testing

Ben Robinson
Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
