April 2nd, 2010: You may have noticed I stopped updating this thread a while back. This is because the game looks like it will play like shit and it's not worth it. YouTube a video and cry or something. We're at Stage 3 of the cycle. If you aren't already invested in this thread, I'd recommend staying out of it. It's better for you.

What This Thread Is Not
- a place to write your Sonic fanfiction
- a place to repost Sonic fanfiction which I can't understand how you found in the first place
- a place to link to other Sonic forums where people discuss how much they want to marry Sonic
- a place to post furry art (your own and reposts)
- a place to post Sonic comics (Archie or otherwise unless it is a timely strip about something relevant to the announcements)
- a place to post the Sonic Cycle because you are a unique snowflake and it is just oh so funny
Keep this thread work safe. That is all. Want to talk about one of those things? Last thread is still alive.
Why is this thread being made?
- Because megathreads suck when nobody can find the updates
- Because you assholes ruined the other thread and nobody can click it without fear of being banned from their school or work networks
If a mod could update this thread title when the name of the game is announced that'd be great.
