For those not in the know, the app features a Sonic the Sketchhog game, Sonic 20th Anniversary news updates, iPod Touch/iPhone wallpapers and a Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 1 trial.

It keeps crashing when I try to play Sonic the Sketchog or Sonic 4 lite, even though I have the full one.It’s really slow too.Turns on fast but when I press start or anything else, it’s ’06 all over again :/

shadow228

SonicHyuga

Of course, that’s what I get for still have a 2nd Gen iTouch. >_>

Sonic 4 & The sketchhog games keep failing on me. Is SEGA going to fix this?

Ricardo

Sweet! Ima download this now 😀

Ricardo

For today I was ranked #7! For all time, I am rank #207 i think the highest mode is “death” lol.

Ricardo

Whats REALLY sad is that Sonic the Sketchhog is more addictive than the iPod versión of Sonic 4 xD Whos with me?

vmk89

What’s sadder is that Sonic 4 costs more.

segasage

its nice that now we can try sonic 4 before you decide to buy it( i hope they add retina display support for sinic 4 later on)

Chaoscontrol

Sketchhog is fun

Discokingz

Works fine on iPad2 although it’s just an iphone/ipod touch 4g app.
Would have been better with retina for this and sonic 4.
I wouldn’t mind a port of Sonic 3D to be quite honest, I think it would make a nifty iPad app!
(but not with the PC special stages as they sucked!)
