Incomplete version of Sonic 4: Episode 2 accidentally released, then pulled from Steam
An incomplete version of Sonic 4: Episode 2 was up for grabs on Steam earlier today, and quite a few members of the Sonic Stadium forum were able to download the game and give it a go before the hole in the system was patched up nice and tight. According to the forum users, time spent with the incomplete title was fun despite the obvious bugs, missing textures, and other issues you’d expect from an unfinished product. You can have a look at screen captures and a few more bits of media through the link. Via Koatku.

Check out the full trailer after the break.
