Upcoming Sonic Games

Sonic The Hedgehog (2006) - PS3 and XBox360

This will mark the 15th anniversary of the series and this is a remake or retelling of the original Sonic The Hedgehog game for the Sega Genesis. Also it features a new character named Silver the Hedgehog (said to have some relevance with Blaze the cat from Sonic Rivals)

Sonic Rivals - PSP

This is a new game for the PSP coming this fall. It features 2.5D gameplay, as players scramble to reach the end of a level before the other players do (whether they are computer-controlled or live opponents). Presumably, it otherwise plays very much like the older titles in the series. Silver the Hedgehog also appears in this game.

Sonic Wild Fire - Wii

New Sonic game for Wii. It will be a completely different game than its Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 counterpart, Sonic the Hedgehog and will take full advantage of the Wii's unique and innovative controller. The game is played by holding the Wii remote sideways, like a NES controller. It is then tilted left or right to move Sonic.

--------------------------

I think alot of the new games sound promising, especially the remake of the original game.

How a game can retell an old game, AND include a new character? Will it be a retcon or something? To solve plotholes?

 

[Thomas]

What I meant by retell and remake is that it won't be the same game, more of a new game based on the old one. Sort of like Fire Red and Leaf Green vs. Red and Blue.

Off-Topic: Blaze is kinda of like the Chaos of another demension.
On-Topic: StH also features Shadow, who apparently will be able to command vehicles.

I just think it's funny that all the new sonic games are coming out for new next gen systems (cept PSP) so if I wanted to play them all I would have to have a PS3/360, PSP, and a Wii. though the Wii game sounds better.

 

[Thomas]

I don't think Sonic Rivals will be good becuase it sounds like you are just racing each other to the finish.

 

[Ice Kid]

Yeah. That's what it sounds like. I like the console games better like Sonic Heroes.
