I think it's the green A button from the 360 controler.Jaded Alyx said:
1. What's that thing?

No, just no. Fuck that skinny legged, anorexic, slits for corneas, smugly grinning humanoid shit. This model is much improved. Finally, there's a Sonic character model that doesn't look like an asshole.

The "A" button is actually attached to the background, he runs past it, so it's not a QTE... INTRIGUE CONFIRMED.

360, nice.
Heh, believe it or not, I haven't been this hyped for a game in a long, long time.

The GC pad's A button looks a lot different than the one in the screenie, whereas the 360 pad's A button looks far more similar.PantherLotus said:
Plus I doubt that, y'know, the GC would be getting a port of a Sonic game in 2008.
EDIT: Of course, you're probably just screwing around so I'll go cry in a fetal position.

Not disagreeing with you, but it's possible a Wii version (not that I'm saying that these screens and video are taken from the Wii version) would support the Cube controllers.

So it 360 exclusive?
Just watched the video.
Gameplay looks AWFUL! The Sonic levels from the Adventure games turned on their side, with even less freedom. Which I didn't think was possible.
It's another shit-tastic Sonic-On-Autopilot rollercoaster game. As with any Sonic game unveiling, everyone is setting themelves up for a fall again. Even I did with Secret Rings.
It's Nu Sega. It's Sonic. It will be shit.

It's funny that you say this, because back before I joined GAF, I remember there being at least two threads I browsed where it was nothing but like 5 or 6 pages of people essentially posting "Sonic Rush is the worst Sonic game I've ever played". I think it was right after Rush Adventure was announced.
Funny how times change, and how the tides of GAF flow...

It's a new Sonic game. This happens every time.
Where was the gameplay in that clip? It's obvious they are going for the nice background, rollercoaster set-piece style no-freedom, grind your way into oblivion gameplay again.
It. Will. Be. Shit.
It may be Easter, but hoping for a good Sonic game is like hoping for the Second Coming. The disappointment and anger in a few months time with be delicious.

On closer inspection, it seems there are indeed multiple routes/paths...that's a plus right?
Note that here you can use the grind rail, or take the loop:
Here you can see another path below the one Sonic is on:
And here you can see another option in the bottom right-hand corner:

WTF. I'm not ever supposed to be hyped for a Sonic game.
... but this looks amazing.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was on the Wii as well. Sega seems to be prepping up their engines for Wii as well (the tennis game, for instance).

You all should be praying that this game is awesome and a huge success sales wise along with Bionic Commando Rearmed. I mean you rarely see awesome looking 2.5D games on consoles anymore and if they prove they sell, maybe Nintendo will consider Metroid Dread on Wii...well, actually they wont...but other companies might be open minded! I know I want a new Strider console game and a new Shinobi console gae.

What's wrong with a Wii version?ethelred said:
Maybe you grab onto it and the "A" lights up, telling you to press that button to shoot Sonic to a higher path, or something.
And and the yearly hand held Sonic title this year is Sonic Chronicles, which is said to be coming out around the same time that this is rumored to be. Makes sense, as they quite often line up a hand held Sonic at the same time as a console one (Rivals and Next-gen were right on top of each other release date wise, I think).

Isn't Sega On an official European magazine for Sega? Is there any reason to doubt them?
That would be a smart decision, this is Sega. Downgraded 3D for Wii is what I know we'll see, and there will be no reason to buy it over the next-gen version at all.ethelred said:

Yeah... it looks to me like there could very well be plenty of different directions to head in... perhaps not as many as in the Genesis games, but it definitely doesn't seem like there's only one path that could be taken. I think the player intentionally went through that one path in order to emphasize the speed.

Obviously that means that as soon as official word is released, they'll do something to screw it up. They should just not release it and never speak of it again, and it'll go down in history as the next-gen Sonic game that had the potential to be amazing. Children will speak of it with a light in their eyes for ages.

At the moment, I am objecting to this game.
It looks like 3D Sonic Rush and that makes me VERY, VERY SAD.

How so? Sonic Rush Adventure and I think the original Rush as well, had 3d perspective change parts. But as things stand now, the pure 2.5D camera sections look just like a Rush game.
When the camera leaves Sonic, that just seems to be a kinda Debug/spectator camera mode to just show off stuff.
EDIT: Unless you didnt like Rush...then I guess I see where you're coming from.
