I think it was Ian Flynn, one of the writers for the comics, who said the in-lore calender has been completely revised for post-SGW but hasnt stated exactly what the date is in Sonic's world. I pressume Shattered World Crisis takes place in 2008 when Sonic Unleashed was relased.

Until Sally, Rotor, Antoine, Bunnie, Nicole or any of the OCs in the comics just show up in the games, can't really accept post-SGW as elaborate retellings of canon no matter how "accurate" it tries to portray itself.
