Project Needlemouse - The Future of Sonic the Hedgheog!

[T-Bone]

So it seems Sega have listened. We're getting an all new Sonic game next year in proper, old-school Sonic 2D but with current gen graphics, bells and whistles. I don't know about you but I'm excited.

Exact same hype surrounded the latest one (where you can be a werehedgehog) but it was all lies

They've looked at Capcom with Mega Man 9 and thought, 'Hey, good idea.'. Now Nintendo need to follow suit with a 2D Metroid game.

Just because it's big, has multiple processors, and push more polygons on-screen than anything else in existence, it doesn't mean that you have to try and push as many polygons on-screen as possible.

Here's hoping that the game is actually quite good

I've said until I am blue in the face and green in the teeth that most games don't work as well in 3D as 2D. Free roaming is not always a good thing.

So it's nice that 8 gazillion years later, they start to see sense.
