Seems Sonic is Returning to 2D..Teaser and interview about Sonic's upcoming 20th on the link. There's not much about the new game, but the interview is pretty interesting from a Sonic fan's standpoint. Not much to make out aside from the fact that it's clearly a new 2d High Def Sonic title. Depending on the game's length and content, I think the a 2d Sonic title could work perfectly as a downloadable, cheaper title. The silhouette looks a bit strange to me, doesn't immediately look like the standard Sonic silhouette. *The silhouette actually matches up with the original Sonic logo from Sonic 1.

Oh Sega come off it now. "Project Needlemouse"? Fan waaaaaaaaaank!
Edit: Just watched the teaser. Jesus wept. "Speed returns". They just don't get it.
Edit edit: That silhouette doesn't look like Sonic at all. >_>;

Given how much they've cocked up the 2D gameplay in recent releases, I'm not getting my hopes up.

HYPE

Who put the Green Hill Zone through a cheese grater? Obviously not much to go on yet, but yeah I'm very looking forward to seeing how this evolves.

If they call it Sonic 4 and it's good, I'll mark.

It's obviously gonna be a Sonic 1 remake. "AN ALL NEW 2D ADVENTURE, BUILT FROM THE GROUND UP" Obviously a remake. PS- Sarcasm.

I wouldn't be surprised if it did turn out to be a remake.

Might not be a remake. Might be some sort of combination instead. Which'd only be... sort of a remake.
Psh, I like the silly little trailer though XD

I reckon they'll make the first level a remade GHZ, and then the rest of the game will be different.

It doesn't exactly make me want to buy a games console (for the first time since 1994), but I'd actually be interested in giving this a try.

The line "Speed Returns" really worry me, seeing as Sonic being too fast and too slippery has been a serious control issue for the 3D games. It also worries me that there might be something like the Rush meter from Sonic Rush might make an appearance and that levels will be more like Sonic Rush's "race tracks with jumps" level type rather than the more traditional types of levels seen in the originals.
Also I really don't like the objects placed so far, they might work with the rest of the level in context, but they look really weird, like something out of Worms. Other than that, there's nowt to go on yet, but I'm going to remain sceptical until I see reason to be otherwise.

Why would "speed returns" worry anybody whatsoever? It's a couple of empty words in a trailer. A trailer about a Sonic game. Sonic being a character who runs faster than the speed of sound. The fact that this is referenced does not make any difference.
What, were they going to write "SPEED CONSIDERABLY CUT DOWN"? That's marketability right there.

Not to add to the speculation at all, but, I was just thinking a few days ago "I wonder if there'll ever be a Sonic 4". (Though the title of the trailer Stiv posted could have just been named Sonic 4 just because "needlemouse" is an awful game name)

How does you thinking it add to speculation?

At first, I was excited, but then I remembered the Sonic cycle never fails. Just wait for another of Sonic's new friends to be revealed.
