I still have the ones I collected at the time (Sonic, Tails, Shadow, Amy, Cream and I think Rouge too?). I even kept the little sheets that came with them. In the U.K. I’m pretty sure it was around the same dates as in the US, maybe a few weeks later.

128 pages, but the Sonic portion is just those 4 pages. On another note, this Sonic Generations mock-up... https://twitter.com/AstroSeedP/status/1266571213016530946
Whoa. Is that some early concept art for Generations, with a village in Green Hill? Were the zones originally going to have hub towns ala Unleashed?
No, this is for the film. Before they had the model ready for Green Hill, they used pieces from Generations and Lost World as temporary placeholders. This can be seen in the deleted scene: https://twitter.com/Gotta_Play_Fast/status/1244954627788980224?s=19
For... reasons better described elsewhere, TSSZ News has permanently shut down. I never followed them that much, but they did seem to have a decent following in the Sonic community. I don't really have much else to say about this.
Dear Goodness... Everyone and everything is going bananas at each passing day... EDIT: Read about the site's owner and his personal agenda. Can't people separate things and stick to each one separately?
Where else would it go? Besides it's prob best left as a footnote, it's in a weird inbetween between Sonic and politics, digging further into it may be problematic.
All I'll say is that as someone who did check into that site every once in a while, it does suck that a Sonic/SEGA news site that's been around for 21 years and provided a lot of information is gone just like...that. Obviously I don't agree with what was said, but it still kind of stinks.
Yea like the articles could have at least been preserved. Instead he just shut the whole thing down. Whatever, the guy in charge was a dumbass anyway.
Most, if not all, of the site's articles should be saved on the Wayback Machine, archive.is, or WebCitation. I don't think they're lost forever.
Literally came here to post this - should have guessed someone else would have beat me to it. It's great to see Mr. Koshiro still has this disk and has backed it up safely. Lots of snippets of unused tracks in the video he posted - what I wouldn't give to hear the contents of that disk in full...!
