See it after the link. You’re going to be holding the joystick in one direction a lot, but that’s fine with us. Looks like a hark back to Sonic Adventure, and given all the horrible things that’ve been done to the poor hedgehog since the halcyon Dreamcast days, we’re all for that.
No idea on dates, etc. See screens here and here (thanks, Zumi).
I reckon it looks really good. Sonic Adventure was great: fast, easy, fun. I lost all interest in Sonic after that. I hope this is more of the same. Certainly looks like it.
Ooh, a game like that I would very much welcome in my meager collection and judging by the looks of the screenshots and the movie it might even come to a console I own.
In a video I saw Sega AGAIN decided to show about a good third of the fast-paced running action from an angled viewpoint from the front. I mean… Double U Teee EEEFF!? I want to see where I am running., for cripes sakes. I really, really do - oh i forgot: it probably is the game that’s playing itself again in those scenes, so no worries about bumping into bits of scenery just because I can’t see it until about one millisec before I hit it…
Sorry for the cynicism, but after Shadow the Hedgehog and the utterly crappy last Sonic I have lost all hope for the blue fella.

I(t) looks fabulous.

Sounds great too. I can see that music getting OCRed a fair bit. Wouldn’t mind playing it on Audio-Surf too.

That pretty much has me sold, sonic rush on the DS is very good also

Never played Sonic Rush. Another gap in my knowledge that needs plugging there.
*phones Sega*

It’ll be great! Maybe.

Yeah sonic rush is pretty much oldschool side scrolling sonic, worth playing

Heh - it’s a Sonic-flavoured Little Big Planet on speed.

I quite want it, I think
