Sonic Boom: The 25th Anniversary of Sonic the Hedgehog CD
September 20, 2018
By Ryan Porzl

Since 1991, Sonic the Hedgehog has been Sega's mascot and one of the greatest franchises in video game history. For over 27 years, the Sonic franchise has produced one classic after another with the first years being arguably being the golden age. One of the early games was Sonic the Hedgehog CD which was released on the infamous Sega CD in 1993. Now considered one of, if not, the best Sonic game in history, Sonic CD was also a highlight on the Sega CD, an add-on that had it's share of critics. Unfortunately, many probably missed the game at first due to the somewhat bad reputation of the Sega CD and people not wanting to pay the same amount for an add-on they would for the system. To celebrate the upcoming 25th anniversary, we'll take a look at Sonic the Hedgehog CD.
