Preview - Sonic the Hedgehog is an two page preview of Sonic the Hedgehog in this article of the British magazine Computer & Video Games, which is undated on the scan but is assumed to be in 1991 as that's the year the game was released. Many of the images are from a early prototype. It also mistakingly says there are 15 levels split into 5 acts even tho 5 Zones are shown total. The first page also mentions a power-up which gives Sonic invincibility and Speed Shoes at once, this is probably a reference to the Unused S-monitor which has been found in the game.

It also mentions that US Gold bought the rights to port the game to the home computer, meaning that Spectrum, C64, Amstrad, ST, and Amiga ports could have been in the works. Of course nothing became of this.
