Jun Senoue Confirmed for TGS Performance, 3rd Generations OST?

Saturday, August 27th, 2011

Jun Senoue, famed composer of many a Sonic game, has confirmed he will be performing on the SEGA stage of the Tokyo Game Show on Sunday September 18th. Jun will be performing alone and is planning an interesting playlist.

“I need to think about the songs to play there and I know it will be a great opportunity to play some from Generations.”

In other news, Jun has also confirmed that the 2 Sonic Generations CDs we discovered artwork for are in fact Japanese pre-order items for anyone pre-ordering either the PS3/360 or 3DS versions.

“They are sort of giveaway CDs. I will work on the soundtrack CD of Sonic Generations later.”

That last comment seems to indicate that Jun is arranging a proper Generations soundtrack CD for a later release. More on this as we get it!
