Microsoft announced today that they would cease all support for Xbox games, be they disc-based or purchased via the Xbox Originals service, as of April 15, 2010. The reason for this cessation is that Microsoft has changes planned for the Xbox Live service that they would be unable to implement if they continued supporting Xbox games.
For gamers, this means any online gaming you plan on doing on Halo 2 or any other online-enabled game will need to be done soon. All offline modes will continue to work on the Xbox 360, including offline multiplayer and single player modes.

Sega has finally revealed the game formerly known as Project Needlemouse to be Sonic the Hedgehog 4- a sequel to the Sega Genesis era Sonic titles. To the relief of many oft-ignored Sonic fans, it will be a 2-D platformer in the vein of the Genesis titles, with the story taking place after Sonic & Knuckles.
Additionally, Sega will add timed leaderboards to the game, allowing friends to compare their times and race each other in the game. It will also incorporate motion controls for the PS3 and Wii, though how it will do so has not been revealed yet
The game will be episodic, which means Sega has planned multiple entries in this ‘new’ style to be released in the next year or so. The first will be released this summer as a downloadable title via XBLA, PSN, and WiiWare.
Teaser trailer after the break.
