As a huge Sonic fan, am very excited. Could this be Sonic's triumphant return to form or will it be the usual cycle we endure of where we become excited for a new game and then end up disappointed upon the games release?

Also, 9/9/09, what a fantastic way to mark the 10th anniversary of the Dreamcast!

Never was a huge Sonic fan, but a re-boot sounds great.

Built from the ground up got me. I don't know exactly what happened between the engine changes from Adventure 1 to Adventure 2, but they screwed everything up with the camera and controls. Ever since then, Sonic's been in the shit tub when it comes to the game play.

If they've redesigned the engine, then I'll do a backflip and dance. Having the best games be exclusively to the hand held systems has been a big drag (Rush had awesome controls and game play with bad level designs, but Rush Adventure fixed that and was pretty awesome).

And finally returning to 2D. I just wrecked my pants...

9 comes out in theaters today too. It's a great day.

As long as Sega don't screwup the gameplay like they did for another game. Sega should really stick to the basic & classic form. No more spin off or add addition new faces.

Teaser site. Does that spell something or am I just being weird?

EDIT: If SEGA's plans are to bring this to PS3 and 360, you know Microsoft is going to try very hard to make this at least a timed exclusive. I'm not sure how many people that works on but I'm willing to wait a month or two to be able to play games on a working D-Pad.

If it's anything like the first two games I'll buy it.

[StoneAgeGamer]

Well this series has needed a serious reboot since the Dreamcast. I just hope they take there time and get it right.

On top of that, the President's giving his speech on health care reform tonight. It's kinds scary knowing all this is coming back to nines.

Have we learned nothing!?

Also, Sonic Rush/Sonic Rush Adventure.

[PapaStu]

Threads merged.

All the Sonic DS games have been good, so people can stop saying that no good Sonic since 99 has been released.

Once we actually see somethign i'll start to care a bit more.

[Baloo]

They even brought back the Sega scream? Shit, I think this is gonna be good

[Arcade_Ness]

I'll wait and see. This is definetly a step in the right direction though.

[Nebagram]

Finally, Sega are seeing the light. Please let this one work...

[joshnickerson]

They'll screw it up, especially if Sonic Team is behind this. They'll do something stupid like, give Sonic an emotion meter, and his speed depends on how much chili dogs you feed him and make him happy, but don't overfeed him or he'll gain weight and slow down.
Oh, and twenty minute cut scenes between levels that feature Shadow being all emo even though he's not in the game.

[Greg2600]

What kind of trailer was that? There's nothing in it.

Shhh, they might be watching.

Same with me. I am afraid of what could be and excited for what could be.

Or Sonic Labyrinth 2!
