    @Osnic yes it IS sonic. i was wrong. i was just a little scared to get hyped about a sonic game seeing as how his last few have been.

    @sonichedgehog45: Haha! That's just so wrong, look what I did:

    http://img27.imageshack.us/i/canitbesonic1.jpg/

    I put the original Sonic the Hegdehog logo into Needlemouse logo, and it IS the Sonic the Hedgehog logo! But everyone is wrong sometimes. But don't be so much....well....say that becaus you've been a fan since 1991, you don't have to know more about Sonic than anyone. I've been a fan sine I thinks it was the end of 2002, and I saw that it was the Sonic 1 logo. But yeah, you know what I mean.

    I'm glad that they're going back to 2-D platforming. I wouldn't mind if it was 2.5-d truthfully

    For God sake SEGA, don't screw this one.

    cant wait! and please please please let someone who actually LIKES sonic review the game! the reviews posted by gamespot in the past were aweful!

    I do think what you can see of Sonic's outline inside the emblem looks slightly different and the way he's whizzing around makes me wonder if a lot of the game is going to be played as Super Sonic?

    The 'Sega' sound at the beginning makes me giddy.

    I know Sonic has always been promoted as a fast game, but the classics weren't really THAT fast. Their main attraction was the superb level design and I think that is what will make or break the game.

    hate how they say built from the ground up but it's basically the same but oh well sonic games are always fun

  • RPG_Fan_I_Am

    Posted Sep 14, 2009 1:14 pm PT

    I doubt it. It looks like the original image. remember sonics skinnier now so it may just look slightly different. you can see what looks like 2 spikes at the top. but you never know. it could be a new character...

  • naru-uchiha1313

    Posted Sep 14, 2009 12:27 pm PT

    the guy in the ring with wings doesn't really look like sonic, is it a new character?

  • braindead_hero

    Posted Sep 14, 2009 3:45 am PT

    hopefully this one will actually be good for once as it's been proved that sonic in 3D does not work very well

  • sonichedgehog98

    Posted Sep 13, 2009 5:17 pm PT

    and PLEASE! let somebody else review this when it is released! the person who normally reviews sonic games is a moron! no offense.

  • sonichedgehog98

    Posted Sep 13, 2009 5:16 pm PT

    dont worry everybody the game will be sold on all consoules im already sold but im curious on how good it could possibly be on just 2-D

  • N-One

    Posted Sep 13, 2009 3:31 pm PT

    Bring this to Wii, PLEASE!!!!!

  • Wiiwillrocku360

    Posted Sep 13, 2009 9:40 am PT

    This had better not be crappy to those stupid people who review sonic games.

  • Wings_008

    Posted Sep 13, 2009 2:13 am PT

    wow am very hyped about this one, the last time i got this hyped was about Sonic Adventure

  • Meph602

    Posted Sep 12, 2009 2:44 pm PT

    I hope we find out more at TGS 2009.

  • Sethbeastalan

    Posted Sep 12, 2009 1:11 pm PT

    Anyone else reminded of Other M? Two beloved series 'going back to their roots.' Strange coincidence.

  • Boris_Fan_279

    Posted Sep 12, 2009 11:42 am PT

    I wonder if it will be a downloadable game with old-school graphics, just like Mega Man 9.

    This will be interesting.

    Project Sonic The Hedgehog!

    ive been a sonic fan sine 1991 thats not the originale sonic logo i sense another gimmick!

  • marumi

    Posted Sep 11, 2009 8:38 am PT

    To those who think that it's a character with a sombrero or a tail, it's the actual emblem of the original sonic the hedgehog game. Any sonic fan from back in the day would know that.

  • waZelda

    "Project Needlemouse" means they will try to take it back to the original (originally Sonic was to be called mr. Needlemouse), so this could be the game that will make Sonic good again. Yet, it seems a little too good to be true...

  • Unheard-Volume

    Posted Sep 10, 2009 8:09 pm PT

    Well it's definitely a Sonic game....leaves room for speculation!

  • alexakask

    Posted Sep 10, 2009 4:18 pm PT

    why proj. needlemouse is it like that sonic is first beig is it a prequel

  • Naomz

    Posted Sep 10, 2009 4:04 pm PT

    I wanna be excited. I really do but you know its hard when theres a huge chance its gonna blow. Remember when Sonic Unleashed was announced at 1st as a 2D sise scroller? Yeah and it was only HALF a 2D side scroller!

  • Zeronemo101Wii

    Posted Sep 10, 2009 4:00 pm PT

    This is my opinion. . . not impressed, but Im not saying it isnt good

  • sonichedgehog45

    Posted Sep 10, 2009 2:31 pm PT

    to me the character almost looks like amigo from sambe de amigo lol look closely XD i hope no gimmicks this time around but im gettin this game fo sho!

  • maverick_41

    Posted Sep 10, 2009 1:37 pm PT

    Wow, I hope this is like the original.

  • XombieJesus

    Posted Sep 10, 2009 12:19 pm PT

    I know its off topic but I really think Rare should make another 2D Donkey Kong game! All 3 of them were some of my favorite snes games ever, gorgeous visuals and great music. Imagine what they could do with it now? Some games are just better off in 2D.

  • touchdownbundy

    Posted Sep 10, 2009 12:18 pm PT

    i hope it will be better than the other sonic games for xbox360

    HOLY S**T!!!!!!

    I can Wait For this!!

  • steelsoldier666

    Theres something unusual about that character, it seems like he has a tail, I can see the spikes in the hair, but I remember Sonic having more spikes.

    I swear to god, if that ends up being Blaze the cat...

    Do it right guys, can't wait! Glad folks are bringing back the old slide screen 2d games with new tech!

  • KoRniTo

    SEGA will always be in my heart in a great way. Sonic was the best series in the old days. Seriously, this will be a classic no matter what some of you think negatively about it.

  • blangenakker

    Posted Sep 10, 2009 1:28 am PT

    I bet if this game does well people will still say it as good as the orginals, doesn't feel right or it's too slow.
    but if this fails then this should hopefully mean Sonic can Rest in Peace

  • krelmmaster

    Posted Sep 10, 2009 1:14 am PT

    They will never create another Sonic game as good as Sonic 3 + Knuckles (that's Sonic 3 with the Sonic + Knuckles cartridge plugged in if you didn't know). But it's good that they are going back to 2D. It only took them what, 10 years? to realise that Sonic just doesn't work in 3D.

  • Evil_Noodles

    Its about time! Lookin' forward to this muchly!

  • sonic777777

    SEGA always gets 2D games on GBA and DS perfect, so why not this?

  • mrhuntin

    Posted Sep 9, 2009 6:48 pm PT

    sonic the hedgehog 4?

  • KaifeiRed

    Posted Sep 9, 2009 6:12 pm PT

    Sonic and the Black Knight was awful. I hope Sega redeems itself with Proj. Needlemouse.

    sonic adventures for the dreamcast was the only good 3d sonic game..

  • magicrage

    Woot! finally a sonic game thats 2D again cant wait for this!

  • rajesh_

    Posted Sep 9, 2009 5:26 pm PT

    For a seconded i thought that silhouette was like the original where Sonic is quite short and sort of cute. But then i realized that there was something wrong with the head! It looks like he has a sombrero on!
