The premise of the special was that Sony had taken over Sonic the Comic, much like how the PlayStation was deemed to have knocked Sega out of the console market. This was reflected in the main headline, "So Long Sega". The cover was adorned with the PlayStation 3 and the provisional controller. The Cover Head featured Crash Bandicoot, despite him not being solely a Sony character. Megadroid also received an upgrade, his Gamecube body replaced by a PlayStation Portable.
