Wait wait, SUPER SONIC is coming back? In all stage playable form?
... Holy ****. This really is looking like Sega's best effort in years as time goes on.

Wasn't Hyper Sonic just Super Sonic but annoying to look at?
You're one of those who are still expecting Bean, Nack and Mighty to come back each game, aren't you?

Hyper Sonic was Super Sonic only with pretty, seizure inducing colors (Not likely but hey) and a dash that killed everything on screen when he did it and could propel him in any direction. He also had multi-images and we all know we like those.
Hyper Sonic looks way cooler than Super Sonic. He also makes Sonic and Knuckles retardedly easy.

Even more information revealed in an interview with (who I believe is) one of the game developers, Takashi Iizuka:
The two things that strike me is the developer saying himself that the actual gameplay is not floaty like the beta version leaked a few weeks ago, and that Sonic acquires a new move in this game. Wonder what it is this time around.

Homing attack sounds pretty lame honestly. Also, by "classic special stages" does it mean from Sonic 1, or 2, or 3/Knuckles?
Mr. Johan

The Homing Attack was borderline useless in the Rush series, but I can see it implemented in this game, since it seems its the only way to access higher up routes, as Tails is not playable in Episode 1. Sonic would just need a huge height boost after hitting a robot with the HA.
The leaked Sonic 4 video a few weeks back has the stage select screen up for a few seconds. Of those stages, "Special Stage" was in the center. The picture for the Special Stages had Sonic in a Sonic 1 Special Stage-esque environment. So it's likely Sonic 1.

Hype!!!!!!

What?
im saying it was a good concept and the way they worte him off was dumb. they didnt even explain why they havent used him anymore. yeah sega makes me rage when they do dumb stuff... like making a light *** download lol

I still don't get why you have a problem with this game being a download. I'd rather pay ten bucks for this rather than pay sixty for another one of Sonic crappy 3D adventures.
You want to know why they dropped him? Two words: Game. Breaker. Besides, Super Sonic has pretty much been established as being the OMG AMAZING SUPER SAIYAN in every game since. Just let go of the fact that they don't use him anymore and let Sega make this new game.

i have a problem because it took hardly any effort to do this silly wannabe throwback.
wanting hyper sonic is no different then the millions of fanboys whining about not being able to transform into supersonic any time you want. How the heck was he game breaking. he met all the requirements of supersonic and was better. the way the introduced him and wrote him off was a stupid mistake on segas behalf. they had no explanation.

Effort does not always traslate over into quality.
Meh, good point.
They just didn't put him into future instalments I guess. Then again, I personally think that the Genesis series and that the 3D series have seperate cotinuity. Yeah, Hyper Sonic was cool but I really don't see him as a vital part of the series.
I couldn't care less about how Hyper Sonic fits into the ******** Sonic continuity. He just looks cooler than Super Sonic.

maybe ep2 will have hyper sonic and really hard bonuses for super emeralds xD

I'm actually looking forward to this in some way now. Super Sonic's back, non-floaty classic Sonic gameplay... Regardless of Sega's recent past it's hard not to get excited at this info.
I'm actually curious how accurate this "classic Sonic speed" is. For that matter, I wonder if the level designs will even come close to matching what the old games had to offer.

The last episode will have some new transformation for the final final boss. Either that, or another Doomsday Zone but not as good.
They can't help themselves.

Hey, look. Info.
So, yeah. Despite some people here assuming it's going to be a rehash based off a single image, it's not. Apparently only the first boss is a twist off the original boss (don't know why people were concerned, it's not like that's the first time that boss has reappeared).

Now I know why people hate Sonic fans.
Mega Man 9 was WILDLY successful, and that was what? Oh yeah, one of your so-called "light *** downloads". I hate downloadable games, I like physically owning them, but complaining about the lack of effort because it's downloadable? Ugh. I'm willing to overlook the fact that it's downloadable if it's actually going to be a decent game, and thus far it looks much better than all of Sega's recent attempts at a Sonic game.
Not to mention that it's really funny how you're complaining about how little effort went into this game and you haven't even played it yet.

whoopee for mega man...
yes the fact that its a light *** download does come into play. to try and convince me otherwise is a waste of time. I dont speak for the largest demographic of sonic fans I speak for me. I liked some of those recent sonic games. or course we all know its impossible to draw opinions from seeing gameplay footage ( end sarcasm)

Isn't Dimps making this game?
It doesn't come into play unless you're close-minded to the point that the game being a download makes a difference, as if the game being sold in a disk would make it any better or worse.
Opinions drawn from gameplay footage are also inherently fairly inaccurate, especially given the limited footage we've seen. How many people could tell how floaty Brawl was (for better or for worse) by videos? I sure couldn't, and I watched a TON of videos. You don't know what a game is going to be like until you've played it.
Coming to a conclusion this early based on the fact that it's a download is silly. I'm not trying to convince you otherwise, I'm just informing you that it's silly and acting as if the game is objectively bad or something because it's a download is silly, because most people don't think that.
Sonic Team and Dimps are both working on it.
Doesn't really matter, it's irrelevant to my point, which is that Sega should be informed of what direction to take, and more sales with this game is going to make them more likely to do so if this game is good.

New SEGA blog talks about fan-made renditions on the Sonic 4 title theme.
I'm still waiting for the day someone makes an excellent Splash Hill Zone rendition though.
Seems like SEGA's next blog will be about the other music in the game. I'm psyched for it.

Looking forward to this. Anything to do with Sonic 4's music would be great really.

They are hyping this game to the max.
I hope it's as awesome it should be.

THANK YOU SEGA.
Mp3 of Splash Hill Zone Act 1 Theme really made my day today.
And the other character is Eggman. Big surprise.
