Sonicology is a Sonic website owned by Hivebrain. The principal sections of the site cover prototypes, game information, cameos and downloads.

History

  • 2001

The site was originally hosted by Topcities, and was a typical bland Sonic fansite.

  • 2002

The site moved to Fateback (which, at the time, was completely free of ads), and was given a swish new red-and-black design.

  • 2003

Another redesign - making use of a separate frame for navigation (which remains to this day), and a visual style reminiscent of GameFAQs.

  • 2004

The third and final redesign copied the style of Sonic Jam's "Hall of Fame", and a PHP news script was installed. Hosting for the site is now spread across Fateback, Ionichost and Hacking CulT.

  • 2005

Updates to the site ceased in late Summer, and Sonicology is now officially defunct. Hivebrain is expected to open a replacement site later this year (2006).

  • Notes

A recurring motif of all four site layouts is the blue logo on a spritesheet-like background.
