What is this pecularliar listing in the Playstation Store titled Sonic DL all about? It can be found under PS3 add-ons. Let’s do a little speculation, shall we?
– The release date is 13/10/2010, the same day Sonic 4 Episode 1 is released on the PAL Playstation Store
– The image is the Project Needlemouse teaser image which probably means this is related to Sonic 4
– Because it was listed on 13/10/2010 makes me think that this is probably related to Sonic 4 Episode 1 and not Episode 2
– This could be a temporary listing for Sonic 4 Episode 1 DLC that was never taken down
– It could be that no DLC was ever planned and this is a temporary holding for Sonic 4 Episode 1
– Could the ‘DL’ stand for ‘DownLoad’? Was this the working title for Sonic 4 Episode 1?
