Sega Announces new 2D Sonic title - Teeks - 09-08-2009
http://gonintendo.com/viewstory.php?id=95966
Quote:A portion of a GameSpot interview with Sega’s Ken Ballough...
GS: Why did Sega decide to bring Sonic back to 2D? Did the success of Sonic Rush and Sonic Rush Adventure play a part?
KB: Old-school Sonic fans have long asked to see Sonic return to a more 2D style of gameplay. Many liked the daytime stages in Unleashed, but wanted to see a game that plays purely similar to the early games of the Genesis. Project Needlemouse is that critical first step that brings Sonic back to his 2D roots.
GS: What can you tell us about the game?
KB: I can tell you it’s a brand new 2D adventure coming out in 2010, it’s in HD, and to definitely stay tuned.
GS: With HD makeovers of classic games being popular right now, can we expect the game to use chunky old school sprites or hi-res HD sprites?
KB: You can definitely expect HD graphics.
That trailer showed me absolutely nothing and I already know it'll be the best Sonic game in 8 years.

And to think it only took them ten fucking years to listen to the fans.

Wasn't Sonic Rivals 2D?
RE: Sega Announces new 2D Sonic title - Vipershark - 09-09-2009
2.5D.
It sucked, either way.
BUT OH YES MAYBE THIS ONE WILL ACTUALLY BE GOOD
DON'T LET US DOWN (again) SEGA!

i hope this is different in even the slightest way. this is honestly the reason i don tplay nintendo games anymore. they take thier characters and try to make shitty ass innovative games with them that end up blowing, and if they arent doign that they are just using the literal exact same formulas that the old games in the series had and use them for a new game.

well about damn time
if they can keep what the original sonic games had then it will be good.

Who is that? In the part where sonic is supposed to move his finger back and forth in the title screen? That looks like a horrible new character... at 18 sec, since im too lazy to post a pic.

It's the Sonic 1 start screen, but because of the backlight, the figure is distorted.

Apparently, the site.

Looks like its just a remake of the 1st.
Although the 1st was fun, SEGA YOU CAN'T CALL THAT AN "ALL NEW" ADVENTURE.
I'm expecting a STH4
RE: Sega Announces new 2D Sonic title - Badassbill - 09-09-2009
I want it to be good, but it's probably just going to be another average game.
RE: Sega Announces new 2D Sonic title - Dazz - 09-09-2009
Also, probably will be 2.5D, judging that image on needlemouse.com
plus ugly as shit.
