    I think it means that they will make more sonic games of this style. Like episode 2, 3, 4 and so on...

    no sonic game couldve ever topped the older series.
    theres nothing better with sonic then goin extremely fast around
    loops and breaking tvs to get power ups, as well as collecting a ton of rings and playing in special stages!.
    im stoked for this and i hope it works out!

    It's nice to see sonic return to his old self. I hope the game is as fun as the day stages on sonic unleashed.

    that symbol they show at the end
    is that sonic or a new character?

  • NicoLikesSoda

    Posted Dec 23, 2009 4:35 pm PT

    looks like they are going to start over and try to bring back the old genesis style of sonic...innnnnnnnteresting, definitely will stay tuned.

  • BWELL83

    Posted Dec 22, 2009 8:33 pm PT

    It will never match the originals, so why bother.

  • sonichedgehog45

    Posted Oct 31, 2009 2:38 pm PT

    @Osnic yes it IS sonic. i was wrong. i was just a little scared to get hyped about a sonic game seeing as how his last few have been.

  • Osnic

    Posted Oct 31, 2009 9:11 am PT

    @sonichedgehog45: Haha! That's just so wrong, look what I did:

    http://img27.imageshack.us/i/canitbesonic1.jpg/

    I put the original Sonic the Hegdehog logo into Needlemouse logo, and it IS the Sonic the Hedgehog logo! But everyone is wrong sometimes. But don't be so much....well....say that becaus you've been a fan since 1991, you don't have to know more about Sonic than anyone. I've been a fan sine I thinks it was the end of 2002, and I saw that it was the Sonic 1 logo. But yeah, you know what I mean.

    I'm glad that they're going back to 2-D platforming. I wouldn't mind if it was 2.5-d truthfully

  • hnugets

    Posted Oct 21, 2009 12:23 pm PT

    I dont know what to think, it will probably be very good, or very bad. please dont mess this up sega

    For God sake SEGA, don't screw this one.

  • sonichedgehog98

    Posted Sep 17, 2009 6:11 pm PT

    cant wait! and please please please let someone who actually LIKES sonic review the game! the reviews posted by gamespot in the past were aweful!

  • no_cultureicons

    Posted Sep 16, 2009 3:11 pm PT

    I do think what you can see of Sonic's outline inside the emblem looks slightly different and the way he's whizzing around makes me wonder if a lot of the game is going to be played as Super Sonic?

    The 'Sega' sound at the beginning makes me giddy.

    I know Sonic has always been promoted as a fast game, but the classics weren't really THAT fast. Their main attraction was the superb level design and I think that is what will make or break the game.

  • omuntu

    Posted Sep 15, 2009 1:38 pm PT

    hate how they say built from the ground up but it's basically the same but oh well sonic games are always fun

  • RPG_Fan_I_Am

    Posted Sep 14, 2009 1:14 pm PT

    I doubt it. It looks like the original image. remember sonics skinnier now so it may just look slightly different. you can see what looks like 2 spikes at the top. but you never know. it could be a new character...

  • naru-uchiha1313

    Posted Sep 14, 2009 12:27 pm PT

    the guy in the ring with wings doesn't really look like sonic, is it a new character?

  • braindead_hero

    Posted Sep 14, 2009 3:45 am PT

    hopefully this one will actually be good for once as it's been proved that sonic in 3D does not work very well

  • sonichedgehog98

    Posted Sep 13, 2009 5:17 pm PT

    and PLEASE! let somebody else review this when it is released! the person who normally reviews sonic games is a moron! no offense.

  • sonichedgehog98

    Posted Sep 13, 2009 5:16 pm PT

    dont worry everybody the game will be sold on all consoules im already sold but im curious on how good it could possibly be on just 2-D

  • N-One

    Posted Sep 13, 2009 3:31 pm PT

    Bring this to Wii, PLEASE!!!!!

  • Wiiwillrocku360

    Posted Sep 13, 2009 9:40 am PT

    This had better not be crappy to those stupid people who review sonic games.

  • Wings_008

    Posted Sep 13, 2009 2:13 am PT

    wow am very hyped about this one, the last time i got this hyped was about Sonic Adventure

  • Meph602

    Posted Sep 12, 2009 2:44 pm PT

    I hope we find out more at TGS 2009.

  • Sethbeastalan

    Anyone else reminded of Other M? Two beloved series 'going back to their roots.' Strange coincidence.

  • Boris_Fan_279

    Posted Sep 12, 2009 11:42 am PT

    I wonder if it will be a downloadable game with old-school graphics, just like Mega Man 9.

    This will be interesting.

    Project Sonic The Hedgehog!

  • sonichedgehog45

    Posted Sep 11, 2009 6:39 pm PT

    ive been a sonic fan sine 1991 thats not the originale sonic logo i sense another gimmick!

  • marumi

    Posted Sep 11, 2009 8:38 am PT

    To those who think that it's a character with a sombrero or a tail, it's the actual emblem of the original sonic the hedgehog game. Any sonic fan from back in the day would know that.

  • waZelda

    Posted Sep 11, 2009 6:05 am PT

    "Project Needlemouse" means they will try to take it back to the original (originally Sonic was to be called mr. Needlemouse), so this could be the game that will make Sonic good again. Yet, it seems a little too good to be true...

  • Unheard-Volume

    Posted Sep 10, 2009 8:09 pm PT

    Well it's definitely a Sonic game....leaves room for speculation!
