Talk:Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I

Link title ==Hoax?== I have my suspisions about this, if its released 2010, SEGA won't have a game for the 20th anniverery, i think its a wind up by gamespot.  Myself  123  12:03, September 9, 2009 (UTC)


 * I also have suspicions. The "teaser trailer" has no graphics that could not have been slapped together by Gamespot. However, I don't see any particular problems with having a page about it, as long as we make it clear that it was announced solely by Gamespot and that it has not been confirmed by Sega (apart from that one interview, also on Gamespot). Also, it would be good if we could find some secondary sources that suggest it may be a hoax, just for the sake of fairness. There must be some somewhere. -- Supermorff 18:07, September 9, 2009 (UTC)


 * Its official. How would it end up on Sega's website anyway? http://www.sega.com/games/project-needlemouse/ http://blogs.sega.com/usa/2009/09/10/fans-take-a-guess-at-project-needlemouse/#more-2722 Sonixrulerz 07:25, September 12, 2009 (UTC)


 * The longer this goes on, the more I'm beginning to accept that it may be real. That said, your first link doesn't seem to have anything to do with Project Needlemouse. It just goes to the main Sega webpage. And the second is purely fan speculation. These don't particularly constitute proof. -- Supermorff 15:47, September 14, 2009 (UTC)

Early Bird
Lucky I Searched before I started this article. As for authenticity... GameSpot report.--Mystic Monkey 20:45, September 9, 2009 (UTC) lxwdVwtbnHM


 * You made this? You didn't sign in, i'm still spectical though, i guess time will tell.  Myself  123  20:53, September 9, 2009 (UTC)
 * I didn't make it. I was going to because I thought nobody else did, but Searched to check if it's already an article.--Mystic Monkey 21:03, September 9, 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh right that makes sense.  Myself  123  21:05, September 9, 2009 (UTC)

The reason SEGA is doing this...
...is because the fans control the games. Ever since Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) came out, Sonic's been getting bad ratings, so the fans have been complaining about the mass disappointment of the game. That they want Sonic to "go back to the old days". Well, NOW LOOK WHATCHA DID! Next thing you know SonAmy's gonna become a nightmare come to reality and we'll all hate it. This is just SEGA's way of "Saving Sonic" and it ain't workin'. -- Shelly   the  Hedgehog  05:29, September 13, 2009 (UTC)

its the back of sonics head (just use microsoft paint to zoom in) by darksonic50

You mean the emblem? it's the sonic the hedgehog emblem as seen in sonic 1 upwards.  Myself  123  08:34, September 15, 2009 (UTC)


 * Shelly you need to chil for god sake, sonamy wont happen because SEGA use it for comic releif, and do you not want needlemouse then?-- Skyler ' the ' Wasp  20:21, September 15, 2009 (UTC)

Eh, I dunno. We don't even know the console it's gonna be on. And as for SonAmy, I just don't get why people support a coupling between a bezerk Sonic fangirl and the Blue Blur himself. -- Shelly   the  Hedgehog  04:16, October 10, 2009 (UTC)

Well, I personally like the idea of a casual romance, rather than all that luvey-dovey junk. I think that would work very well.--Kagi mizu -Seeya  'round ~ 04:20, October 10, 2009 (UTC)

I really don't like SonAmy. If Amy really wanted to be Sonic's boyfriend, she'd learn to ease up. Keep this up and she'll just scare Sonic away completely. She's too clingy. That's why I liked Elise better. But that's just my say. And I wish SEGA wouldn't worry about having to bring Sonic back to the past. His games are doing very well. They keep getting cooler each time. But, if SEGA is behind the Olympic Sonic/Mario crosses, why is Mario's name above Sonic's? --Narutoheroes12 02:20, October 19, 2009 (UTC)


 * Alphabetical order.  Myself  123  17:36, October 21, 2009 (UTC)

Im gonna say this. You all better god d*mn gratfull for a new sonic game. I hope they just dont have Werehog. This could be one hell of a game, think about it a high def 2D sonic game, thats awsome. I my self im looking forward to this game. Dudes the list gets bigger and bigger for awsome games coming out in 2010 Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker, Metal Gear Solid Rising, Halo Reach and now this. Just reamber guys, Sonic 3 and Knuckles!!!!!!!!

Who added the characters?
I'm pretty sure no one has confirmed a single character for the game yet. They just announced it. --Narutoheroes12 23:22, October 18, 2009 (UTC)

Well...other than Sonic of course... --Vae Infectus 01:54, November 23, 2009 (UTC)

classic Sonic
Can anyone confirm the rumors that Sonic and Robotnik are going back to their original, chubby designs for this game? Sonictoast 15:49, November 16, 2009 (UTC)

Dude there not gonna do that!

Sonic Rush Style game
Based on the little info that's here, it looks like they're taking a Sonic Rush type approach, a 2D game with a few 2.5D moments as that seemed to be more successful (Both Sonic Rush and Sonic Rush Adventure had decent ratings). As for everything else, plot, characters (other than Sonic), pure speculation. --Vae Infectus 01:14, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

Hm, sounds reasonable. 3D side-scrolling game seems like what they're gonna do.--Kagi mizu -Seeya  'round ~ 01:21, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

That and the Werehog gameplay in Sonic Unleashed and Sonic's sword weilding antics in Sonic and the Black Knight weren't too popular --Vae Infectus 23:50, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

I'd like to see them do it with 3d graphics like the bits in Unleashed.  Myself  123  00:05, November 21, 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, I'd like to see that too, but with way more speed. In Sonic Unleashed and SatBK, there was a noticeable lag between 3D and 2D speed.--<font color="#0000FF">Kagi <font color="#FF0000">mizu -<font color="#008000">Seeya <font color="#FFA500"> 'round ~ 00:19, November 21, 2009 (UTC)

Now I'm usually open-minded with Sonic games, but 3D sidescrolling is what closes it up! Can't people get the fact that it belongs with Smash Bros.? COME ON!!-- A k  a  m  i  a ( Talk )( Want to see what I've been doing? ) 02:03, November 23, 2009 (UTC)

i think a 3D side scroller would work for a sonic game-- Cyrus The  Hedgehog  19:24, December 17, 2009 (UTC)

Revival type game
You know, I'm a little suspicious about this. I mean, it could work. But at the same time its sounding like what a lot of old metal bands have been doing, a "revival" of sorts, that usually doesn't work. Hopefully yeah, like others said, a Rush approach would be great.--Halofighter92 17:32, November 27, 2009 (UTC)

3D can be good
SEGA can make a good sonic 3D game,like sonic adventure1 that was good,after needlemouse remake sonic adventure1 & 2.they were good.they could port both games to 360

revival characters
they should bring back characters,here is a list of characters who should be revived.1 fang the sniper 2 mighty the armidillo 3 metal sonic 4 egg robo.user:retardedNHS

What about Ray the Squirrel? Sonic & Scrab  Master  19:18, December 17, 2009 (UTC)

What!? no not ray or mighty the bolth suck, if they are gonna revive a character it should be fang the sniper, i mean come on they are bolth cheap ripoffs of sonic, tails and knuckles--13sonicstar F**k you! They're great characters. Though Ray only had one appearence in the games. G30FF!

See its because of retro fans that sonic is going back to its roots,im not saying that i hate those old games but all you did was jump around and run to one direccion, and also mighty and ray didnt have so much personality (only in comics).--13sonicstar--

Well i do agree with you User:13sonicstar -- User:Michaeldragon800

G30FF: Yeah yeah. (snaps 13sonic's neck) Sonic &  Scrab  Master

Well they should limit the pool of other Sonic characters for this one. One of the problems the Sonic series has had is WAY too many side characters end up taking the spotlight(Sonic 06, for example). I don't mind other characters, Tails should be in there as always, Knuckles & maybe Blaze because everyone loves her and the Rush games.--Halofighter92 07:25, December 22, 2009 (UTC)

Definatly Fang, he deserves a revival most. But mighty may return, if a sh**ty character like charmy gets revived then so can ray User:RetardedNHS half past your mum
