Our Sonic Dash competition is now closed and the winners have been decided. We had a brilliant response to the competition and it is with great pleasure that I get to give the following people some exclusive goodies.

First of all, here are the t-shirt winners who were chosen completely at random:

Paul McCambridge
Angelina Deheve
Chloe Martin

Finally, we’re giving the iPhone 5 case away to the person who was the quickest off the mark. It seems appropriate to give Sonic Dash merchandise to our fastest entrant 😉

Congratulations to Dean Veritiero and his Sonic-fast reflexes!

SEGA Amusements Release XD Theater at Minehead Butlins

Thursday, August 1st, 2013

In what has to be the most dramatically British headline ever, SEGA Amusements have unveiled a new attraction at the Butlins holiday park in Minehead.

The new attraction is called the XD Theater and it’s a “4D” theater experience which means you watch a short film and at certain points you get air blown at your face or there’s a spray of watery mist.

There’s no word as to what the short films are that play during the XD Theater but the attraction is open now for visitors of the Minehead Butlins holiday park.

Along with the obvious stereoscopic visuals, quick save and round select features have been added. You can also choose to play either the Western or Japanese versions of the game.

The big addition is the inclusion of assigning control to an individual button instead of sharing them accross the Mega Drive original’s 3 button format. You can now assign the commands for jump, close range attack, shuriken attack, defend and ninjutsu to specific buttons.
