ArchangelUK

And lo from the Sonic fan base there emerged an old timer who despaired at the lack of Blognik posts as well as his unemployment - if only there was some way of fixing both these banes at once?

He could work for SEGA! That'd be handy...

ArchangelUK is the webmaster of Sonic fan site Sonic Wrecks and podcast Radio Redux, brought in to aid you in all things Sonic. As such he's kept his internet alias as opposed to his real name, as he finds it at least 45.212% cooler.

The new Sonic City is under his terrible and frightening dictatorship as are all Sonic games from here on in, which he's rather excited about considering his background. That's not forgetting any other NiGHTS, Nintendo and Marvel licensed games - yikes he's going to be busy.

ArchangelUK (or AAUK for short) comes from a place far, far away where people still point at the sun and scream in terror and don't lock their doors at night. Mainly as the locks have been stolen along with the walls, ceilings and floors. And the cat. He's been working for SEGA in an unofficial/official context since March 2007 but was finally rubber stamped (which stung somewhat) at the end of November.

He used to work in a music shop for seven years so his taste is rather mixed and as he lives down south he supports Manchester United - naturally. He also doesn't like sweetcorn, drink tea or coffee and looks like a grey echidna after his fan character Angelus the Gatekeeper. Japanese Sonic Riders fans should note, he came up with the name first.

Fun Facts:

#13.1c: AAUK's eyes are of such a mix of colours most everyone has a different opinion of their colour.

#14/2a: One of AAUK's life goals is to get a turkey in 10 pin bowling.

#15: AAUK does not like sweetcorn.

#47-1: AAUK owns over 3/4 of the merchandise in SEGAAUK HQ's museum display.

SoS - Questions & Commentaries I

I have a headache.
Admittedly this is not really news but its a very head pounding experience setting up a convention when you’ve not done such before.  Anyway I’ve had lots of feedback recently on everything, and various questions/points have come up that need to be answered.
Q: “How much does it cost to get in?” / “I’m going to […]

“Sonic World Adventure”

“Sonic World Adventure”

I’m sure you’ve heard the rumour, that we’re changing Sonic Unleashed’s name. Sorry folks. No we’re not.
The mix-up is understandable most certainly, so I’ll explain the base details.  The rumour started when a guide appeared on an online store for the game “Sonic World Adventure”,  keen-eyed Sonic fans spotted this and reported it and so […]
