I too would like to know how to unlock Sonic. Preferably without having to watch a video, as I am a dial-up user.

I just want to try to get Sonic unlocked, and then the rest I'll probably do without spoilers.

I just figured he was unlocked via SSE. As long as it's not a time based thing (Mewtwo) it's fine, i'd like to play Sonic asap.

Most likely speed run :( Although I considering he's been called, "A ***** to unlock" It will probably be destroy enough Cruel Brawl alloys...

Sonic = hard to unlock; false.

I unlocked him through VS matches last night. It came shortly _before_ I got "congratulations you played this game for 10 hours", so I'm assuming it's the number of matches. I'll go have a look on the place with play stats at some point, but he was maybe the fifth character I unlocked through VS yesterday, so he is in no way difficult to unlock (unless, maybe, you're not playing VS matches). He's certainly the best unlockable character thus far.

I haven't actually unlocked anybody via SSE because I've been playing so much VS that by the time I meet the character in SSE I've already had them for an hour.

There is another way he can be unlocked, and that's simply to beat SSE. No specific difficulty, no handicap, just beat it.

not exactly, there's a thread in the wolf discussion boards that says he can be unlocked mid game...

Official: There are three ways.

1. In SSE, you unlock Sonic right before the final boss battle.
2. Beat Classic Mode with 10 characters.
3. Play 300 vs. matches.

Hope that clears everything up.
