ESRB Posts Sonic The Hedgehog 4 Description

The ESRB has posted its listing for Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 1 and has provided a description of what to expect:

This is a side-scrolling adventure game in which players zoom through themed levels, collect gold rings, and jump on tiny robot enemies. Players earn points for collecting "power-ups" and freeing tiny animals that are trapped in the robots. During boss battles at the end of levels, players may encounter an arch nemesis in a mechanical device that gets charred and emits some flames when damaged.

Sounds like a good old Sonic title to us. The first episode will arrive this summer, on Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network and WiiWare.
