Xbox Live: Sonic CD Developer Diary reveals amazing behind-the-scenes artwork

Sonic CD - the remake of the classic Sonic the Hedgehog adventure - won’t be coming to Windows Phone this week; the 14th is already packed full of Xbox Live releases. But Sega's latest will very likely land on December 21 or 28. We’ve already interviewed the remake’s brand manager, digging up some choice details about the new version. Now it’s time to learn more about how the original Sega CD/Mega CD platformer came to be, thanks to a new video from Sega.
The Developer Diary features Sonic Team Art Director Kazuyuki Hoshino, who reveals numerous pieces of never-before-seen concept art. Highlights include original drawings of Amy Rose and an explanation of Metal Sonic’s design process. You’ll also see several tantalizing unused enemy and boss concepts. Interspersed throughout the video is footage from the remake, giving a great impression of how the game looks and feels.

Sonic CD is scheduled to arrive on Windows Phone, Xbox Live Arcade, Playstation Network, PC, iPhone, and Android by the end of the year.
