   Too soon?

2. Really hope it’s a MOBILE game, would be pretty weird if a main title was called this, it sounds soo incomplete.

   1. It could be a spin-off. Spin-off titles are usually titled with that kind of structure. Sonic Battle, Sonic Riders, Sonic Drift, Sonic Jam, Sonic Boom….

      but yeah, it probably will be a mobile phone game…..still holding out a small wedge of hope for something better though…

3. Please be a sequel to Sonic R, Please be a sequel to Sonic R, Please be a Sonic R sequel………

   …..I can dream, can’t I?

   1. Imagine a Sonic R sequel that plays like the generations games.

      Yes…

      1. My boner is ready…

4. *Everyone ignores the fact that this is most likely a mobile game*

5. I really hope this is a mobile game. Not that I would give a flying fuck about the game anyway but I’m hoping it’s mobile so Sonic Team gets to work on their game for at least 3 years+ before they announce it. Right now it’s a bit early for my taste.

   1. 25th anniversary is almost exactly 3 years apart from SLW release. And Sonic Team are probably started working on a new title before SLW release so they have more than 3 years to work on it. On the other hand we all know about mysterious 2015 TBA title so who knows, maybe we’ll get new game in 2015 and there won’t be any game released for 25th anniversary.

      1. Or we could get a Sonic game developed by other studio in 2015 (Sumo Digital, AM2, Bioware, etc.) and a new game by Sonic Team in 2016.

         Also I wonder if they are planning to release a game tie-in for the Sonic movie.

         1. ^This is what I have been suspecting as well for a long while. Let’s hope so! Since it is the same animation team that gave us the Sonic Unleashed opening cutscene and Night of the Werehog who is crafting it in partnership with Sony, I am very optimistic about the movie that is coming.

            Yeah, something about the movie gives me a really good vibe, even when anything could go wrong with it, also the writers of the movie have been very attentive to fans when they were confirmed to write the movie.

6. I heard that Sonic Runners was just a working title

7. Mobile game? Not really interested, every Sonic themed mobile game they release looks lazier each time, the only way I will get this would be if it now features some kind of story mode (or anything that gives a much needed sense of progression), special qualities for each character (like in Sonic Jump) and less gameplay hours for unlocking all characters for free.

   If it is the spiritual succesor of Sonic Dash I think they should look back at the special stages of Sonic Rush for inspiration, those were really challenging, fun and rad!

   1. Ah, my favorite version of the special stage! Would defintely love to see that kinda touch screen gameplay for Sonic taken to the next level on iOS.
      Honestly, if they ARE going to ride off the coattails of Sonic Dash and make this as a sequel of sorts to it that improves everything, then I’d just like a few things.
      1. Unique running animations for each character, (Tails flying with his tails, Blaze with her running animation in Rush/Rush Adventure, and Amy and Rouge with their more girly walk styles from Adventure 1 and 2 respectively)
      2. Special ablitles for each character, Tails, Cream, and Rouge could fly over obstacles, Knuckles can smash through certain objects in your path, Sonic, Blaze, and Shadow would be able to boost, and Blaze immune to any fire-type obstacles

      1. Couldn’t agree more with you, also I like that about the unique abilities, perhaps the game should have more options to destroy enemies, like homing attack for some characters, glide for Knuckles, fireballs for Blaze, tail swing for Tails, etc.

8. I posted my idea for a new Sonic foot racer a few months back.

   If this “Sonic Runners” thing is anything like my idea…I’ll be pretty stoked.

   But we all know this will be iOS fodder.

9. You know, with all the different forms of transportation there are, at least this wasn’t the “soniccycle.com.” haha
