EZXP: Sonic The Hedgehog

Electronic rock band EZXP turns in an all too short medley of covers from the soundtrack of the SEGA classic Sonic the Hedgehog. That part where Sonic runs out of air underwater still stresses us out to this day.

Sonic is Unreal

Sonic is Unreal

We’ve seen Mario dropped into a realistic world using Unreal Engine 4. Here’s the Blue Blur given the same treatment by YouTuber CryZENx. Now that’s going fast. Check out CryZENx’s channel for more UE 4 demos.

The Hedgehog

The Hedgehog

A boy uses video games to escape from life. But how long can he keep running? Chris Lee and Paul Storrie used Sonic the Hedgehog to symbolize depression and how some people are unable to face the realities of life. Gotta go sad.

Sonic the Hedgehog IRL

Sonic the Hedgehog IRL

While it was a sad day when we learned that hedgehogs aren’t blue with spiky hair, their cuteness more than made up for it. Here, real-world hedgehog Marutaro does his best Sonic impression, thanks to some silly effects.

Dr. Robotnik Dance

Dr. Robotnik Dance

Our old pal Nathan Barnatt dances his ass off in this previously-unreleased video, where he busts a move as Sonic the Hedgehog’s archnemesis, Dr. Robotnik. We were waiting for the part where Sonic jumps on Eggman’s head, but it never came.

Sonic Goes Berzerk

Sonic Goes Berzerk

If you thought that Mario wreaked havoc when he was hopped up on mushroids, wait ’til you get a load of Sonic the Hedgehog after he eats all of the Chaos Emeralds. Poor Tails. He’s gonna have to start using his feet.

Sonic, Lord of the Rats

Sonic, Lord of the Rats

Sonic the Hedgehog does his best impression of Daenerys Targaryen, granting freedom to countless critters trapped in evil Dr. Robotnik’s container prisons. Unfortunately, this one probably should have been left sealed.

Soniculus Rift

Using the Unreal Engine powered Sonic the Hedgehog GDK, combined with an Oculus Rift VR headset, Chadtronic shows off what could be the most nauseatingly awesome use of the virtual reality tech so far.

Super Smash Wars 2

Super Smash Wars 2

James Farr continues his Star Wars and Super Smash Bros. mashup with a retelling of The Empire Strikes Back. Watch Link Z-target a massive Octorok, train with an electric-type Jedi and learn who is father is. Part two here.

First Person Sonic

First Person Sonic

We’ve seen what Super Mario Bros. could look like in first person. Now step into the red shoes of Sonic with Machinima’s first person – first hedgehog? -run through the Green Hill Zone. It’s not as dizzying as we thought it would be.

Green Hill Zone – A Capella

Green Hill Zone – A Capella

How could you not love a guy named Smooth McGroove? Especially when he sings all of the parts of the theme song to the first level of Sonic the Hedgehog A Capella. Dr. Robotnik would be so proud. Chemical Plant Zone here.
