SEGA registers Sonic Generations photo

SEGA has recently registered a new domain name for Sonic Generations, with rumblings suggesting that this is the name of the "real" current generation Sonic game. What does that mean? From what I can gather, it means it'll be Sonic 2006, but not absolutely dreadful. 

SEGA has one confirmed Sonic title in the works, Sonic 4: Episode 2 and a rumored collection of remade levels from past games, Sonic Anniversary. SEGA previously stated it had three big Sonic projects in the works, which would make Generations the third and last. 

Can't wait to see what kind of shitstorm this game will bring with it.

Sonic's trainers will be green in this game. The subsequent outcry from Deviantart will break the internet.

They can resolve the green eyed/blue eyed inevitable shitstorm by having him wear 'radical 90s shades' the entire game.

After all, he's the dude with a 'tude.

Good to see that Sonic Team is actively creating new IPs. Instead of trying to milk money out of a dead mascot. Because, it'd just be terrible if they were doing that.

I really wish Sega would dedicate more effort into Sonic 4. Such a good engine and mechanics let down by shitty design and repetition.

We all don't like the 3D games either, so why continue?

Pretty sure this is the rumored Anniversary game where you play through recreated versions of past Sonic stages.

I found Sonic colours to be a good game (better then the other 3D outings anyway), so if they stayed to that formular, but improving on some of the weaker parts of it, then this could be a great game, IF they dont get too "Creative".

Untill i see some screens of it though, Im staying on the fence.

Are Sonic fanboys happy with ANYTHING besides the Genesis games?

I just played through the original Sonic the other day on PSN. Was that game ever fun?? It kind of made me appreciate Sonic Unleashed a little more. Not that it's a fantastic game, but it sure puts classic Sonic to shame.

@Onyx: Some of them like the Sonic Adventure games, depending on who you ask.

I'm one of those rare people who likes the Sonic Adventure games MORE than the Genesis games.

I think it's more likely that Sonic Generations is Sonic Anniversary.

I'll hope for another Sonic Colours, which I thought was great, like top 20 games great alongside Sonic 2.

Why not release Sonic Adventure 2 on XBLA/PSN.

Or heck. Why not release Sonic CD. Isn't that know to be one of the best Sonic games? And still, so few people have actually played it.

I think the rumor is that Generations is Sonic Anniversary but with a new title

I hope its more of a spin off, because the Sega themed games like the Tennis and Kart Racer are pretty awesome. Main line Sonic games, not so much!

Hey, Jim don't be a pussy about this. I think this game will be good. Sonic Colors was awesome and yes I know you didn't like that game while it was clear Sonic Colors was a good game as you can see by how he got 8s and 9s from many other reviewers who had much better reviews. This game is supposed to be like them and a lot of the fans were very pleased with Colors including me who was tired of crappy sonic games. This game should be good because it's basically going to be Sonic Colors and Sonic Unleashed day stages. Oh, and I think this is the anniversary game. So stop being so pessimistic and have some faith that Sega can make another great game like Colors. :)

Wait... I could have sworn that they registered that name before...

I distinctly remember hearing about a "Sonic Generations" before.

Anyhow, watch this project end up having next to no involvement with Sonic Teh Hedgehog aside from the usual Sega mascot cameos.

Um... "Sonic Generations" has been mentioned as "Coming Soon!" Monthly in the Archie Sonic comics for months now. Don't be surprised if this is just a comic thing. All sings point to it being the next story arc, starting on or after issue 225. Made an account here just to say that... will provide a picture if someone tells me how.

Generations is probably the real name of the rumored Anniversary. Sonic 3DS would be the third.

While this subject can be very touchy for most people, my opinion is that there has to be a middle or common ground that we all can find. I do appreciate that you have added relevant and intelligent commentary here though. Thank you!I am extremely impressed with your writing skills and also with the layout on your blog. Is this a paid theme or did you customize it yourself? Either way keep up the nice quality writing, it’s rare to see a nice blog like this one these days.70-502 | 70-503 | 70-505 | 70-506 | 70-511 | 70-512 | 70-513 | 70-513 | 70-515 | 70-516 | 70-516 | 70-519
