I heard that Sega wanted to name Sonic the Hedgehog 4 New Super Sonic Bros., but then Nintendo came in and stole their idea.

Video Blips:

• Even though this Sonic 4 trailer only shows off about 20 seconds of gameplay, in that time Sonic covers a distance of about 50 miles. Yeah, he (or rather, the editing) is that fast. [GameTrailers]

Continue after the break for a Madden NFL 11 video with announcer Gus Johnson, a Singularity trailer that shows off the game's fancy glove, and an interesting preview for the game formerly known as Bikini Karate Babes 2, Warriors of  Elysia.

• Sports commentator Gus Johnson really adds a new level of realism to Madden NFL 11. Or maybe they just took his commentary from a real game and then programmed a Madden simulation around that.... [GameTrailers]

• Players can use Singularity's Time Manipulation Device to stop enemies in their tracks and leave them prime for the picking -- err killing. It also would be the perfect tool for pantsing monsters...if only they wore pants. [GameVideos]

• What do you think is the main selling point of Warriors of Elysia? Blatant sex appeal or nostalgia for fighting games from the early-to-mid 1990s? [GameVideos]
