Is there any reference to Super Hang-On in this book as I have a huge affection for that game. I'm very tempted to buy this just for the Space Harrier pop up cabinet alone.
@Damo A fascinating article and a very enjoyable read. I'm a bit of a SEGA nut but never knew SEGA almost bought Thames Television, that would have been fantastic. A Sonic animated series by Cosgrove Hall Films would have blown my mind back then.
@antster1983 Exactly. The huge library of content available at Thames Television combined with SEGA would have been fascinating. I'm a huge Cosgrove Hall fan, which was a subsidiary animation studio owned by Thames, which made the likes of Danger Mouse, Count Duckula, The Wind in the Willows, Chorlton and the Wheelies etc. Just think about the possibilities of what might have been, a Sonic animated series by Cosgrove Hall would have been mind blowing!
