Sonic the Hedgehog (ソニック・ザ・ヘッジホッグ Sonikku za Hejiihoggu?), trademarked Sonic The Hedgehog, is a video game character and the hero of a video game series released by Sega, as well as numerous spin-off comics, cartoons and books. The first game in the franchise was released on June 23, 1991 in order to provide Sega with a mascot to rival Nintendo's flagship character Mario (see 1991 in video gaming). Since then, Sonic has become one of the world's best-known video game characters, with his series having sold over 45 million copies. In 2005, Sonic was one of the first game character inductees into the Walk of Game, alongside Mario and Link.
Sonic the Hedgehog (also called Sonic the Hedgehog 2006, or Sonic Next-Gen to differentiate it from similarly titled games) is a video game featuring Sonic for the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3. The Xbox 360 version was released on November 14, 2006, but the PlayStation 3 version had been delayed until January 30, 2007. It was developed by Sonic Team and directed by Shun Nakamura, and marks the 15th anniversary of Sonic the Hedgehog.
