This is obviously Project Needlemouse's name.

I seriously doubt they gonna use that url for the game if it is gonna be called sonic the hedgehog 4 its too long and just doesn't look right.

[Arnon]

Wat.

Why would you think the title is too long?

[execution17]

its in 3d with 2d gameplay, thats what they should of done instead of going straight to 3d gameplay

[nogolis]

A sign of good things to come... Sonic 4, after all these years Sega might actually realize where they went wrong. Of course Yuji Naka is probably pissed and that's a shame but let us pray this is a good ol' 2-d Sonic game with just Sonic in it. Please let it just be sonic.

[NJShadow]

Sega already confirmed that it would only be Sonic. =)

[tdrules]

why are people excited for it?
it was confirmed ages ago to be a PSN/XBLA title, not a full release

[asdr3wsfas]

It's 2d sonic. They finally got that everyone just wanted 2d sonic.

[gumgum99]

I don't think its fair to generalize the 2D purists as "everyone". Sure there are a lot of them, but they are also fans of the 3D adventure series, fans of Shadow, fans of the comics, and everyone in between.

That being said, I'm really excited for a new Sonic game, be it 2-D or not.

[Eamon]

it was?

[asdr3wsfas]

True, should have said everyone who stopped playing sonic. To be fair I'm not entirely a 2d purist though. I'm a 2d platformer purist. After being ignored for decades we're very excited to learn that there are others like us and businesses finally realized this.

There's a hedgehog on my belly who will be thrilled to know I won't wake him up when this game comes out for days.

I loved the sonic cartoon...mmmnnn, chili dogs.

[Solidus187-SCMilk]

Id rather play a 2d sonic then any of the recent 3d ones.

I really thought the first aonic adventure is good but had some lame parts. Since then I havent really played any 3d ones but I did DL sonic 2 on the arcade.

[Redempteur]

fan of shadow doesn't exist ..everytime i see one i'm already punching them in the face before i realise what's going on .. no no

NO really they don't exist in my world ...

fan of shadow ? that's can't be right

Anyway this is a sonic ONLY game

[HOSe]

i think we will definitely see online and offline 4 player coop ala nsmb

[gumgum99]

I doubt it.

[Saaking]

wouldn't the gameplay be too fast to allow multiplayer?

[Foxgod]

Not if its about reaching the goal first, or reaching the goal with most rings.

In racing games you dont have to finish all at the same time either do you.
So its very well possible.

[koehler83]

sonicthehedgehog5,6,7,8,9 and 10.com are all registered to Sega too.

[Foxgod]

Now thats what i call planning ahead :P

[Cajun Chicken]

OH YES.

[theDJKNOWN]

you got a chance here sega, don't BLOW IT !!! im for one loved the old school sonic games and well welcome sonic back if it's 2D !

[pixelsword]

Hearing about another Sonic game after they broke my heart so many times, or knowing that Sony will probably have to patch that for them, too.

[MK_Red]

So Sega is going the Capcom route (SF4, RE4,...).

[electricshadow]

I have faith in the Sonic the Hedgehog series! I still think Shadow the Hedgehog was GOTY material!

/end sarcasm.

[galgor]

I hope this is on par with 2. Please Sega, don't mess this up.

[Foxgod]

Nice, finally a followup with hopefully true sonic gameplay.
The 2d sonics on the DS are fun, but too cartoony and childish.

Nintendo should give us Super mario brothers 4 :)
