second Sonic 2.
*Insert Nintendo Fanboy Rage Here*SegaOnline’s source claims that the game will only be for XBOX Live and the Playstation Network. That is something that has been hinted at previously by Sega employees. It looks increasingly likely that Wii users will be shutout of the next proper Sonic.

Whenever I think of classic Sonic, I think of Nintendo.
How the hell is that Genesis-era? It might be a bit more Genesis-era-styled than the main console series were since Sonic Adventure, but it's certainly not Genesis-era gameplay.Sonic Advance, Sonic Rush...?
He didn't say it is Genesis era games - He said it is Genesis era GAMEPLAY.
There's a bit more to Genesis-era gameplay than this. Running around with loops, collecting rings and chaos emeralds are part of nearly ALL Sonic games, new or old. The sole fact that Advance and Rush are 2D doesn't make them "retro" or something like that.He didn't say it is Genesis era games - He said it is Genesis era GAMEPLAY.

That's what Wikipedia says. Seems like some fansite is puuling things out of their ass...Earlier today, Dutch fansite SegaOnline posted information from an anonymous source claiming to have insider knowledge of Project Needlemouse’s development. The website ran the story as a rumour earlier today, before mysteriously disappearing from view. Key details that were revealed to SegaOnline included the game’s name, ‘Sonic 4′; that the game will only be released on Xbox Live Arcade and the PlayStation Network; and that this will be the first in a series of similar games. The website’s source claims that the game will be titled “Sonic 4: Episode 1″, but says that despite the implications, each ‘Episode’ will be a full game in its own right.
On top of this, the anonymous source has said there will be 7 Chaos Emeralds, a return of the ‘Zone’ and ‘Acts’ level structure, and that the game will begin in ‘Splash Hill Zone’ and finish in ‘E.G.G. Station Zone’.
