A list with games that are coming to Xbox Live Arcade popped up on the popular gaming forum NeoGAF yesterday. While it contains games that were already announced such as Battleblock Theater and Sonic 4 Episode II, a bunch of unannounced games are included as well. Among these is Sonic Adventure 2, a game either fondly or not so fondly remembered by Sonic fans. This was posted by a forum member with only 8 posts with no information on where it came from though. Besides that, it also includes cancelled games like Bonk: Brink of Extinction and Saints Row Moneyshot, so there’s barely any credibility to this.

Or at least there wasn’t until Harmonix (the developer behind the Rock Band franchise) revealed Rock Band Blitz later on the same day, a game included on the very same list. Meaning there’s actually a possibility that the it is real and that Sonic Adventure 2 may be coming to XBLA, or was at least once in development. Other unannounced SEGA titles that may be coming to Xbox Live are more Vintage Collections with Golden Axe and Streets of Rage. The full list can be found after the jump.
Here's a link to the article, as well as the list he mentions. (http://www.sonicretro.org/2012/04/rumor-sonic-adventure-2-coming-to-xbla/)

So. Thoughts? If it's true, you better believe I'm gonna make a Chao editor for it!

Yes it's coming to XBLA. There's a download placeholder on XePartnernet.

Here's a pic i got on my dev as proof.

Man, I'm glad you got that thing. I still don't have a clue how it works, but it sure did make me really happy today! ^-^

Of course, the title simply says Sonic Adventure 2. How much do you wanna bet that the Battle content is gonna wind up getting the same treatment as SA1's DX content and be made as DLC (or be absent altogether)? I don't really care so much for the versus content, but SA2B has a crap ton more Chao content than Vanilla. I'll be pretty upset if they don't include it by default.

Likewise. I still have my original Dreamcast copy, but it's scratched beyond playability; I used to have a Gamecube copy, but I lost it. Besides, Dreamcast and Gamecube saves can't really be modded (I know for a fact GCN uses encrypted saves and I think DC does as well) and, with as old as both consoles are, there really isn't any reason to anyway. (I don't know if I've driven it hard enough yet, but I'm REALLY into Chao hacking!) ^-^

Speaking of, if they do allow online gameplay, I'm going to put caps in my SA2 Chao editor so that edited Chao can't have an unfair advantage online. Kinda off topic, but just thought I'd throw that out there now, for anybody who might care. :p

So. What are some of the things you guys hope they bring into this? I want 8-player online Chao racing! Online versus! And online Chao trading! Also, Chao racing leaderboards would be pretty cool too.
