Race as Miis in Sonic & All-Star Racing photo

The Xbox 360 version of Sonic & All-Stars Racing is getting Banjo and Kazooie as bonus characters. So what's the Wii version getting? You! Well, your Miis to be more exact. You'll be able to race as any of your Miis and Miis will have a special All Star moves as well.

Now all that's left is the PlayStation 3 version. There's Avatar and Mii support, but what about Home avatars? Also, while reading up on this game, I found out that Sega was considering having Segata Sanshiro as a playable character riding a Sega Saturn. It probably won't make the final cut, but if it does make it in, then it's automatically agreed upon that he would be the best racing character ever.

Well then, for me, that officially means that Batman is a playable character. I WIN.

Also, Segata Sanshiro NEEDS to happen.

I'm still thinking Jak and Daxter, seeing as they already have their own racing game. Regardless, I'm more interested in seeing a playable Sanshiro.

It would be sweet to be able to make and use an avatar.

Why the hell did it take this long to find out? This won't be nearly enough time for the entire Internet to rally together and demand their Segata!

This is pointless. Mii's aren't a console exclusive figure, they're just stupid avatars.

The second image even confirms that they have the same special move as the xbox avatars, so they'd be effectively the same as the avatar characters, just with the cosmetic difference.

I doubt they'll put the home characters in for PS3 though. They wouldn't fit in at all, and they probably couldn't be ported directly over without cutting down on polygons (while miis and avatars are far simpler than the rest of the characters in this game). Plus home dudes are creepy as all fuck.

I only want Segata Sanshiro if he can judo throw other cars and make them EXPLODE.
Just like in the video.
Then, I will buy.

I'm calling the PS3 getting Crash Bandicoot. Or a Tekken character.

Bah, who needs Banjo and Kazooie as characters when you can have Batman, Obama, Hitler, Iron Man, Bat Man, Jesus, Harry Potter, Billy Mays, and Ozzy Osbourne?
