I'm confused. Where does it say SEGA will announce a Sonic game for the PlayStation 2, Xbox, Gamecube and DS? The icon with Sonic's face at the bottom of the site looks like it came from SONIC the Hedgehog. If your claims are correct, I hope the game is Sonic Rush 2, now on both the DS and consoles....

Also, SegaSonic, if you hate the 4KIDS voice acting so much, consider yourself lucky because now each of the new generation consoles use full size disks, meaning that SONICTEAM can now fit the Japanese voice track in with the English voice track again. Back on the original subject, after reading 1UP...

I feel some have been iffy about this quirky, simplistic approach because most people have now grown on the angsty "Dragon Ball Z" approach recent Sonic games have retained. No pleasing either way... "Moan! SONIC the Hedgehog has too much angst!" "Wa! Sonic Wild Fire sounds too kiddie!" So without f...

I love this. Showing Mario Galaxy alongside Sonic Wild Fire, and both looking promising, really makes me love life. I am still looking forward to SONIC the Hedgehog despite its recent showings, but Sonic Wild Fire is higher on my anticipation list now. Not that I can determine much from its ten seco...

This... this is... this is the kind of game I have been looking for for oh-so-long! A fully sophisicated 2D platformer on a current or next generation console using high resolution 2D sprites and loads of polygonal elements. I am truly in love ! That is the kind of game I plan on making when/if I ge...

Well, I browse around various game-related message boards on occasion, so when I see members depict their ideal classic Sonic game in 3D, they always include cell-shaded graphics. No idea why, but it seems somewhat logical.

The last episode of the English dub airs this week, so SONICTEAM will soon have no choice but to axe the voices. If I remember correctly, someone said they were hired to uniform the games with the show. Now they will have no show to uniform the games with. Also, the music in the trailer sounds like ...

From how I see it, this should be the end-all be-all of current Sonic games. Again, that is why I made my Sonic Adventure 3 conclusion from earlier. I am still trying to find out what SONICTEAM wants to accomplish with this new direction. As evident, they are not going back to the roots, but somethi...

I understand. When I first saw the new Eggman, I spent ten minutes going, "Um... Well... Er... Okay... Eh... Geez... What?" Exactly like that. Well, I don't know, Bowser looked weird in Mario 64, but his designed improved later on. Eggman just needs to eat more now, that's all. Also, his suit has lo...

I hope all that was not directed to me, j-man. Truth be told, I have no idea how to feel about the trailer. I cannot hate it, I cannot like it. We all thought this game was going to be just a prettier Sonic Adventure 1 at first and now it looks like a whole other creature all together. There is a st...

Damn all, right after posting my impressions of the trailer in the other thread too. I see responses here are on a different note than mine were. I will side with you all, the Sonic parts are the only truly good parts of the trailer. Eggman scares me, as well as Shadow the Angsthog, his vehicles, an...

I will call this game Sonic Adventure 3. It was going to be Sonic Begins, but seeing how Shadow and "the human world" are now into the mix, it looks more like a follow-up the Sonic Adventure games. Not really going back to the roots now.

Arg! Why do you do this, SEGA? Sigh, oh well. I knew this kind of shit would happen close to E3, or not, during E3. SONICTEAM must go to DeviantArt a lot. Shadow is in the game too, but as b_boult said, he should be a little more bearable now since he found out his "purpose" and all... But what will...

It seems Backbone are working another title for Sega: Charlotte's Web , which is based, not directly on the book, but the forthcoming Nickelodeon movie adaptation. I laughed. I bet SEGA got paid to publish it. Who would honestly pay for such a license anyway. Nevertheless, it will be a colossal emb...

Did you really have to bold that part? Anywho. Another hedgehog. A princess. Some kingdom. Really strange and cryptic stuff. Town and action stages. Very strange things.

There are LOTS of bottomless bits in there, light dash is still in there, so is the slide attack, so is the homing attack, so is the wall-run from Shadow's game. What else have they got?

Hmm... I am a little mixed on this announcement. I like the colorful look. 2D gameplay works most of the time, especially when it comes to two player racing (See Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and Sonic Rush). Even though I am not too fond of the inclusion of Shadow, the game could make him cool again (Yes, I...

We all want it to be good, but it is hard not to be cynical considering how much crap has been put out in the last few years. However there really hasn't been enough material to judge the game at all. I really haven't been keeping track either. Okay, okay, I admit, I overreacted on my part, but can...
