Now that we know when Sonic is coming, why not take a gander at some movies shown at the Japan Expo -- which was held in Paris, oddly enough. The videos have no sound it seems, but they do give us a glimpse at the telekinetic powers of Silver (the white one) and show off one of Sonic's levels, too.

Also in the video: a rather lengthy load screen and a cameo by some guy's face. Enjoy.

1. Consider the following:

[] All of the 3D Sonic games, even the good ones, have been mere shadows of the original 2D affairs.
[] It is possible to use 3D graphics and beautiful particle effects to great an awesome 2D game. Consider Megaman Maverick Hunter X for the PSP, Klonoa and its sequels, Pandemonium, and so forth.
[] 2D platforming is far superior to 3D platformer; there is two much fiddling with the camera and other useless elements that hinder gameplay.

Thus, from these points, I conclude that they should totally revamp the upcoming next-gen Sonic game to play strictly 2D. Keep the updated graphics, lose the unnecessary play dimension.

2. Sonic 16-bit = Holding right and seldom hitting A.
Sonic current gen = Holding forward and seldom hitting A.
I mean, COME ON!
Honestly, though. Why do people still buy these games? Continuing a franchise like this while stripping out all the elements which made it fun in the first place is ridiculous.
And before I forget: INTERNET WIN, FRANKY!

3. First you say: "Sonic 16-bit = Holding right and seldom hitting A."

You then continue: "Continuing a franchise like this while stripping out all the elements which made it fun in the first place is ridiculous."

If that's all that constituted the 16 bit version - which I assume you didn't find fun - exactly which elements were stripped out?

Internet lose, Danny.

4. I thought it came across as blatant joking in the first half of my post..
I love the old Sonic titles. The first series I got interested in.
