Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing

Sonic and Sega All-Stars Racing is a recently announced racing game that features characters from the Sonic the Hedgehog series and other SEGA franchises. It is for the Xbox 360, PSN, PS3, Wii, NDS, and PC. It is currently the third installment in the SEGA Superstars series and is being developed by Sumo Digital.

Gameplay
The game plays out like a kart racing game, with characters collecting power-ups to boost their speed or hamper their opponents. Like Sumo's previous Sega game, Sega Superstars Tennis, each character has a 'Star Move' unique to them, such as Sonic transforming into Super Sonic, that they can use against their opponents. The game will have multiplayer options for up to four players on split-screen and eight players online.

Characters drive vehicles that relate to the character. Courses that appear in the game are slated to be references to various Sonic and SEGA titles.

Trivia

 * This is the first Sega Console game in to have Sonic Drive a Car since Sonic Drift 2 (Unless you count the Sonic Adventure 2 Kart Racing Mini-Game).
 * Various zones include medieval castle ramparts, lush rainforests and bustling cities, all taken from the visually rich and varied universes of Sonic and SEGA.
 * It's possible that there's two versions of each course like Seaside Hill for example. The first version appeared in the Screenshots while the Second Version appeared in the E3 Demo of this game.
 * The characters in this game perform different animations/poses whenever they pass a racer or get passed by a racer, some of thier animations/poses causes the character to let go of the wheel for a moment yet the player still has complete control of the racer/car.
