they did a hardcover of the darksiders artbook as well, except that one was major spensive.

Thanks OP! This slipped under my radar and I love Udon books. FYI for anyone that hasn't pre-ordered a Udon art book, there is a very good chance this will get pushed back to the end of the year or early next year as almost everything I have pre-ordered by Udon gets pushed back by 4-6 months. Just a heads up if someone is getting this for a gift for someone else.

Technically, this isn't by Udon. It's the English version of a French book made by Pix'N Love. Udon seems to just be the publisher for the US version.

By the way, here's a review of the book that pretty much mentions what it contains and has some preview pictures of what's inside.

I pre-ordered last night since I might as well take advantage of it being on sale from $45/$50, especially since $32 is a good deal for a 300 pg. history/art book.

Yup, unless it is a tribute art book, a handbook or comics, Udon books are mostly translations or collections of Japanese (in this case French) art books

Anyway... will definitely be buying this. Been a huge Sonic fan through the good times and the bad, and STILL a fan. No fair-weather here.

You're just proving his point since that game sucked.

Strapped for cash, but will keep this in mind for the future. Thanks OP.

They will show the first 3 games on the first ten pages, then the other 290 pages will be pictures of a piece of shit repeated over and over.

Edit: before any huge sonic fans try to bash me over this post, it was a joke.

Does the quality of the book degrade as it gets closer to page 300 ... crumbling into nothingness by the end?

If you really don't want to be bashed enough that you are going to put a disclaimer after your "joke," then it would be better to, you know... not make the joke.

I have this gut feeling that rest of this thread is just going to consist of haters looking for ways to make them feel good.

So... screw all of them, I'm excited.

Ha ha people are funny. There's a reason why Sonic has endured past all of the Bubsies of the platforming world

Well spoken. yes, there have been some bad games, the great far outweigh the bad.

At first I read the title and thought that maybe Sega was releasing some awesome, giant collection of most of Sonic's games and rereleasing them for the 360/PS3. Way to get my hopes up, jerks!

Right around my price range, thanks

Thanks for mentioning this deal OP, I had a couple of friends decide to bite on this. Me being impatient I decided to import the french version off of pixn love's website instead. Cost me about $46 after S&H though so this is a pretty good deal.

Thanks. I love Sonic but wasn't going to consider this without seeing a review first.

Meehh Id rather have the comic books or even build my sonic game collection more. I'm just not a fan of paying for art books.

Its nice but I don't think it makes you any bigger of a fan when you get this book and you only own 1-2 sonic video games.

I'd consider this for the info on obscure titles. Just hope it primarily focuses on Sonic and doesn't devote too much attention to his lame friends.
