Sonic Unleased Not Connected to Those Shit Sonic Games

Never mind that Sega's crack legal team already confirmed Sonic Unleashed, Official Nintendo Magazine (UK) has a world exclusive! The Wii game will be out this winter, use the Wii-mote and Nunchuk, but won't have online, it seems. Fair enough, the game seems like an old school Sega platformer — a good thing. Says the game's lead designer, Yoshihisa Hashimoto:

In our minds, this game will have more in common with the older Sonic Adventure series. It has no relation to Sonic the Hedgehog [the 360/PS3 game] or Sonice And The Secret Rings... We wanted Sonic fans to love Sonic even more. Also, for people who are not familiar with Sonic, we think that this will be a great way to introduce them to Sonic The Hedgehog.

THANK GAWD. The game is supposedly being developed internally by Team Sonic (and not by a buncha devs all across North America and Europe), and it does feature this possibly worrying element: During the daytime, the game is regular speed-based Sonic ramps and loops and rails. But! At night, Sonic's hairy alter ego (oh dear) comes out, and the game play changes to monkey-like swinging and obstacle manipulation. Well, at least it's better than human kissing. Never forget!

Thanks, Joe for the tip!

Hell yeah! I've been waiting for this for ages, please be a good sonic game that lives up to the incredible first games and series. I'm geting this no matter how bad, but if all this is true, this is gonna be awesome XD

I think that this was a good move on Sega's part. The previous console offerings weren't very good; this one looks much better from what I can tell. And Sonic's the only character again, for once.

Don't make me post my 4 rules again!
1. It's multiplatform.
2. Sega hasn't made a successful 3d Sonic game since the DC.
3. No real changes have been made to the gameplay.
4. I forgot #4. But the first rule should be enough.
