Sonic The Hedgehog 2 Hits XBLA Wednesday

The blue hedgehog’s finest hour? That’s of course up for debate, but for me it was Sonic The Hedgehog 2. The venerable Genesis classic will hit the Xbox Live Arcade this Wednesday for 400 Microsoft Games, complete with enhanced graphics and sound, as well as 2-player co-op plus the usual leaderboards and achievements.

With his new Super Spin Dash and “Tails” the Fox, Sonic is back and better than ever in Sonic The Hedgehog 2! Defy gravity in hair-raising loop-de-loops, bounce like a pinball and race like lightning. Play against friends at home or against others over Xbox LIVE in this classic game.

that screenshot looks like it was taken from a emulator using a SaiX2 filter...it does look rather blurry to me

Nah, it was on Microsoft's page. A lot of XBLA games look like this, I figure they use that filter too.

i suppose 16bit games would look stupidly pixellated on a HDTV...
