We're a day out with the above video, but here's a late Halloween greeting from Sega, as they present a scary trailer revolving around Sonic's new Werehog form. Actually, it's not scary, but it's still decent regardless. Kind of Pixar-ish, actually ... and I am going to forget I saw that horrible little fairy mouse character.

Looks like a full movie tie-in with Sonic Unleashed is on the way. Didn't expect that. Straight to DVD? Actually, it seems like it'll be online.

After the jump, we have some more gameplay trailers for you. The first one is set in Chunan, the game's China-themed level, while the second takes us to Mazuri, a rainforest-styled stage with some catchy music.

I'm still keeping the faith on this. Still keeping the faith.

Sega needs to pull a SSF2Turbo HD Remix with the Genesis' Sonic(s).

And that is all. Nothing else. I will buy 5 copies so they can stay in business.

I want to like this game, but all of the speed sections just look like an in-game cinematic with power-ups. We'll see when it comes out though.

I'm approaching this game as I would any girl that I found kissing another dude when I stroll up to the restaurant: trepidatiously and with all cynical shielding at MAX.

The "fairy mouse" is actually a flying Chihuahua. ...But I agree, it's horrible.

Why would anyone be excited or even expect anything good from this? It looks like crap. Sega can't make a good Sonic game anymore. They should just retire Sonic or go back to the roots of the series when it was actually good. No Sonic game has been good since the Sega Genesis, possibly Sega CD. I haven't really liked a Sonic game since Sonic & Knuckles.

"Why would anyone be excited or even expect anything good from this?"

Because I played it and what I played was good.

"No Sonic game has been good since the Sega Genesis, possibly Sega CD."

The first Sonic Advance was excellent.

lets hope that this movie will be a silent movie, because i really don't want to hear that that blue hog's nails-on-blackboard voice at all

let me remind you why:

I'll tell you what I'm not looking forward to--hearing Sonic's 4kids voice again.

the 2nd video doesn't look too bad, since i'm getting the Wii version. With all wagle aside i just hope it would at least play like a much refined sonic adventure

i have very high expectations since -secret rings- was shit (to me)

sonic 06 would have been (or should have been) a sort of refined sonic adventure, with the same idea of hub worlds linking stages just like the original on the dreamcast. unfortunetly it was so broken it made grown men weep.

im really hoping they make this one as good as the adventures... SEGA PLEASE, do what your doing, but DONT have the speed bursts flinging the player to their deaths again.

Well, at least the Wii version looks pretty, so if by any chances it turns out to be good, it wont look like a N64 game. I'm not expecting much, but i would be happy if it's actually good. Sonic needs good games.

@ Jim Sterling

Yes, I stand corrected. Sonic Advance was good, but that's because it went back to the roots of the original Sonic games. I still liked Sonic & Knuckles better, but it was a good game nonetheless. I, however, will amend my original comment to better represent what I really meant.

No Sonic game on a home console has been good since the Sega Genesis, possibly Sega CD.

I didn't like the Sonic Adventure games either, though the first was amazing looking for it's time.

wait, unleashed is for Wii, too? So Sonic Unleashed and Sonic and the Black Knight are coming out soon? Two Sonic games developed at the same time for the same console does not bode well.

Even when Sonic was at its peak back in the 2D days it was vastly overrated in my opinion. I think its strength has always been the main character, which is, I admit, a very cool game character.

I won't slag this game off until I've played it but seeing as it's based on pretty mediocre foundations I doubt it'll be up to much.

That actual gameplay on this is not looking that bad at all.
