I think the screens look pretty nice. It' s being made by the same team as Death Jr, for better or worse, but I think it shows promise. Presumably 2.5D gameplay, which is good. Sounds like an update to the racing from two player modes Sonic 2 & 3.

My verdict: May be promising.

At least there are no guns, right?

3D 2D the way sonic should be kept on next gen systems if not completely 2D. The graphics are at least somewhat closer to original sonics with the squares and a green hills looking level.

Yes no guns, but please get rid of shadow - bring back sonics unique-ness.

I think it looks awesome. I hope the gameplay is good to.
Maybe this is what Adam was referring to as the three-words-where-the-first-one-strarts-with-H.
Handheld Sonic Game.

It looks pretty for a PSP Game and I have wanted a 2.5D Sonic game for a while... I just hope the 3D bit doesn' t get in the way and that it retaisn the same sense of speed Sonic Rush had. The two player Racing bits in Sonic 2 have never been replicated with the same success so against a human friend I can see the game being a blast. I just hope it' s not too annoying one player.

I' m not sure if I got it right, hopefully not, but judging by this description on IGN it appears to be a.. racing game?

Look at the screenshots, they all have two characters that appear to be competing.

It' ll be a sort of racing platforming game. It' s not goign to be a racing game in the traditional sense. Like I said, think back to the Sonic 2 split screen bits, I' ve a feeling it' ll be something like that but obviously a little more elaborate. There are moves you can do to hinder the progress of your rivals. Push them, trip them even some special moves you can collect.

Sonic, Knuckles and Shadow are confirmed as being playable. A new hedgehog for Next Gen Sonic has been announced, could we see that same character in this?

Thats two Sonic games seen. All we are missing is the Wii game and maybe a new DS title. I' d settle for Rush 2 any day.

I have Sonic the Hedgehog on my cell phone. It' s actually quite fun. It' s the best cellphone game I have played so far.

It sucks on my Phone. I can' t control the jumps and end up killing myself. It looks pretty sweet though, gets a few odd looks from people on the bus
