Doesn't sound too appetizing. I believe I'll pass on this if it's all true.
There was a thread on /v/, shortly after the original thread that started all of this, that explained exactly how the entire rumor is fake (created by /v/ tripuser Ben Spurr), and someone edited the HTML (instead of Photoshop, makes it look more legit) on one of Ben Spurr/Wentos/Wintos' posts. They changed the message to closely describe Sonic Generations, screencapped that, and posted it to make it look like it came from 2011 (even with an earlier post number) a few months before the Generations announcement. Now all the news blogs are citing that as the reason why this leak could be legit, since it's coming from the guy that was right about Sonic Generations, after all.
To clarify about the tripcode: You can have whatever name you want in the name field, but the tripcode is more like the actual username. The tripcode matches with Ben Spurr's, so it was Ben Spurr, NOT the original Wentos at all. Which is also why Wintos/Wentos doesn't matter.

In short, the Generations leak screenshot is a fake. The rumor is 100% fake. It's probably too late to stop it. Do with this knowledge what you will.
Alrighty.
Come ooooooonnnnnnnnn Sonic Generations 2.
So my Shadow the hedgehog method of discerning if its real or not is full proof.
Actually I think it's fool proof, not full proof.
Sucks. :\ What is Sega doing? We've not had a Sonic game since forever...

Can't say how i know but this is not consistent with what I've heard.
Last year wasn't that long ago.
But ill understand if you don't have the fondest of memories for Episode 2.
Do Chao offend you? lol It's not like anything with Chao is a mandatory part of Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2.

Oh, wow, just realized your avatar is supposed to be Knuckles. A really creepy looking Knuckles...awwwww
So yeah, this rumor is 1000% bogus, apparently the post names and whatnot (even the Gens screencap) were edited:

So pack it up, this Excursion rumor has now Expired.
LMAO! Priceless.
Can't say I'm too miffed. Vita was getting no love, so maybe there's hope now.
Didn't Sonic Colors and Generations break this?
Get with the times man
It was someone trollin' around. EDIT: As Hero of Legend showed.This actually sounded good. Is this rumor 100% debunked, now? No hope at all?
As mentioned on the same page as the quoted image, people like to use the image for anything that isn't Shadow, 06, or Black Knight/both Storybook games (which it is actually reserved for) despite Colours, Unleashed Day, and Generations having a good streak and being different from what the text in the image states.Didn't Sonic Colors and Generations break this?
Hopefully we'll get an announcement soon.
For Episode 3, sure. Main new title? I have doubts.
What happened to the sega announcement with the sand filling into a ball?
