Dear God, I can only imagine the levels of rage that will storm across the lands if what is being implied by Integrated Alchemy is true.

The more I think of it, the more I am left scratching my head as to what Sega would stand to gain from this if it was all just a big tease. If they were curious as to what kind of game some people might have wanted, I am sure the 2D angle would have been a common enough response. If they just wanted to build hype for the franchise, just about any new piece of info would have done the trick (and they would have avoided the backlash that could come from a stunt like this).

As such, I take Int. Alchemy's claim with a grain of salt. We must be missing the big picture here.

Sorry but the sonic fanbase is still a huge community and thriving for more quality games, and since this project needlemouse was going to be a HD fully 2d game it's kinda dissapointing.

This was going to be Sonics megaman 9 in a way.

I loved unleashed day time levels, skipped the night time levels(werehog crap), so i cannot comment on those. My fav sonic experience ever, my second fav sonic is sonic 2 on the genesis.

I would disagree, but every new Sonic game that came out was mediocre at best (honestly, the last great Sonic game I played was on the Dreamcast :?).

I actually think the dreamcast sonics were the worst, along side the 2006 sonic the hedgehog.

Nah, the difference is, Mario games are still GOOD ;). Sonic, however, continues to stagnate (which is really depressing...I used to love the Sonic games).

This news is 4 months old.

And no where did they say or even hint that the game is a hoax, just that sega only had a project title to announce that's in development. Nothing else as of yet.

This is no more news that zelda wii. A game with no title, no screens, no gameplay, nothing. That doesn't mean zelda wii is a hoax.

Actually, now that I think about it, why should any series die as long as people are enjoying them? I admit, most of the Mario spinoffs are stupid, but that doesn't mean they should die. Just don't buy the games.

If it were a hoax, why would the video still be on Sega's official website? http://www.sega.co.uk/games/project-needlemouse/

What was the last Sonic game you played? Alot of people outside think the sonic series is 'Terrible' simply because of biased reviews (i really hate saying this because it makes me sound like an ignorant fanboy what im defonatly not.

Mario Galaxy received AAA across the board and also received multiple GOTY awards.. We should give Mario another chance.
