Sonic 2 to Hit XBLA this Wednesday

Sonic is all set to blaze his way to the Xbox Live Arcade with Sonic the Hedgehog 2. The game's priced at the standard 400 points; to justify the cost, the game will allow you to play the game in co-op over Live with a friend (who’ll step into the worn out shoes of ‘Tails’ the fox). Here are the title’s features:

Classic Sonic action: One of the world's most famous video game characters comes to Xbox LIVE in one of his fans' favorite titles. Experience the thrill of the fastest hedgehog in the universe.

Enhanced graphics and sound: The game stays true to the original, but takes full advantage of high-definition graphics, with enhanced sound effects.
