Be careful out there, Sonic fans, as spoilers for the third movie have seemingly hit the internet.

Keanu Reeves is the Shadow the Hedgehog none of us saw coming, but it turns out that Sonic the Hedgehog 3's director felt John Wick was a perfect "audition" for the character.

Paramount and Sega have graced us with a new trailer for Sonic the Hedgehog 3 today, and a bit unexpectedly, there's a reference to Pokemon in it.

After an incredibly long wait, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 finally has its first trailer, and it's looking like an absolute doozy for fans of the series.

It probably won't surprise you that, despite the numbers, Sonic 3 is borrowing a lot from Sonic Adventure 2, but I really am wondering what will happen to Maria.

As screengrabbed by Neogaf users, Dreamcast-era classic Sonic Adventure 2 popped up on Xbox.com earlier. The listing has since been removed but showed an October 3 release and promised leaderboards, "content downloads", and offline multiplayer. Interestingly, one of the screenshots shows PlayStation 3 button prompts, so it looks like it may on the way to both console networks. We'll ask Sega for an update.
