Summer of Sonic: The Scene Outside
We’re in the wee hours of the morning here on the US East Coast, but in London, the day has dawned, and Summer of Sonic is just a few minutes from getting underway.
The picture above is outside the SOS venue, where a fair amount of fans have lined up early to get inside. The picture is courtesy of Yuji Naka’s Twitter account, which is continuously updating with photos inside the show before the crowds storm in.
There is also the live feed which you can check out on Sonic Wrecks if you can’t make it. Our correspondent is among the crowd at today’s SOS, and reports will be streaming in here throughout the weekend.
I remember I used to like watching the live stream, but nowdays, I wait for the highlights afterward, lol.
OH! SoS is starting! I totally forgot! I want a new Rooftop Run trailer here…..
Come on SEGA! Release a new trailer for Sonic Generations! Preferably with a new stage… I think you should use Rooftop Run/Spagonia because you have already hinted at that. Yes, most people know the full list of stages, so it wouldn’t really matter which stage you used, but Rooftop Run “was officially revealed”, unlike the other stages.
Screw Rooftop Run! lol I already know what it looks like in Unleashed, and while I’m sure it’ll look really different in Generations, I’m curious to see what Crisis City looks like, or Sky Sanctuary. o.O
@FoxBoy i agree the only thing new in rooftop run is classic but crisis city man that would be pretty cool seeing as how it is new for both sonic’s sky sanctuary also would be cool maybe put a sneak peek of the fight with knuckles too it is an iconic fight
Hey isn’t there supposed to be a big surprise that SEGA announces today at 9:00 pm? That’s what I heard.
@foxboy lol i have sonic unleashed. Rooftop run is AWESOME. waddya talking about D:?
The music for rooftop run is awesome too~
I wonder what the remix for it will sound like o-o.
@BartSonic – Uhh, as cool as that would be, SEGA revealed in the Spoiler article that was deleted that Knuckles isn’t a boss. Maybe they find him in a cut scene.
Hey, I was expecting some new things regarding the Summer of Sonic by now!
@Foxboy
I agree with you but you know SEGA won’t do that. They haven’t even shown any gameplay of Rooftop Run. I think they should formally announce the PC version and use some gameplay from Green Hill, City Escape, Rooftop Run, and maybe another Classic level like Chemical Plant! I think both Sky Sanctuary and Crisis City deserve thier own trailers, cuz of thier uniqueness! Also, SEGA should make a trailer for the 3DS version, using Green Hill, Casino Night, and something unique like Sweet Mountain!
Well, that’s all I got!
@Sonic52789
Where did you hear that?(the thing about SEGA announcing something)
“…and reports will be streaming in here throughout the weekend.”
…still waiting…
Okay, so how come we haven’t gotton any information about Summer of Sonic yet?
Wrap-ups, with any luck, will begin later today.

As an attendee, I have to ask this;
How could that 9pm spoiler rumour have been true if the event finished at 8pm?
Ah, I’m in this picture! Glad I put my arms up now. =P
Knuckles isnt boss! He is just in 2 missions in game.
Sory for spoiler but probably the most important members of sidecast are Tails, Shadow and Silver (and metal sonic of course).
Why? They are listed in leak as bosses (excluding Tails) those will be epic battles. I cant wait to see battle with Shadow (probably on ARK if no then speed highway I hope) and Silver (in Crisis City PLZ that would be epic)
@Pur – lol, I don’t know, someone told me a while ago and I wasn’t sure if it was true or not (apparently not)
Man, I finally get to see sonic fight other characters again! For the past couple years it’s been egg man robots, dark Gaia minions, or amusement park robots.
I haven’t felt this good about a game since Sonic Adventure 2 😀
@sonic52789
Thats what I mean! Last time was when he fought Silver in 06.
I am more excited over bosses than levels 😀
And BTW I was thinking.
Acording to leak we see characters in gameplay not only cutscenes so they need to give them movesets.
So maybe we see more playables in next sonic game what do you think?
I mean I would love to see Shadow, Silver and Blaze playable again.
@SA3 2011 How did you know about Knuckles and the missions?
Anyway, 2 of the attendees have even commented on this website! Come on, we want coverage!
@SA3 2011
FOR THE LAST TIME, THERE WON’T BE AY OTHER PLAYABLE CHARACTERS EXCEPT THE TWO SONICS. I’m sure Sega can not stress that enough!
>talk about SoS coverage
>this is the only article about it
Yeah Tristan, nice going with that there.
@Shan the hedgehog
Somewhere on SSMB look in topic about hidden demo things there is a source code from game explaing every mission. Someone made a list without numbers so we can understand what does it mean just search the topic in Sonic Generetions section.
Or just go to sonic retro.
@Sonic Player
From what I see you are a classic fan (evidence “Blaze= FIRE ESPIO!!!!”) but those characters have potential and if no them then who.
Chaotix?- All right but lame jokes? Its sonic colors script over and over again and this trio sadly contain them so no until they get a rid of those jokes.
Cream?- PLZ No
Amy?-NO GOD PLZ NO!
Or maybe Big huh?
Maybe Tails and Knuckles and maybe Rouge but rest is just in right place. In place of NPC.
So now what would you say abou this list of playables:
-Sonic
-Knuckles
-Tails
-Shadow
-Silver
-Blaze
All with their super forms (excluding Tails and Knuckles I know they have them but they wont fit now) All with different playstyles that I’ll explain later.
So what you say I would like to hear all opinions.
Looks like Summer of Sonic is getting better every year xd
Cream is a pretty good character (At least in Sonic Advance 2/3).
She is faster than Amy/Knuckles/Tails and have that Chao to fu*k you up.
Of course in Heroes she sucked mostly because all the Fly type characters there couldnt do shit.
“Wrap-ups, with any luck, will begin later today.”
…………………………………..STILL WAITING…………………….
And you’ll still be waiting prolly into Monday. As I understand it our correspondent fell ill…hence no instant gratification.
Don’t worry…we think the wait will be worth it.

Just caught up on the rest of the demo leaks, and I found out everything about the game!
I only “Caught up” because there was no new news, so I was kinda hoping there would be something new when I was done… 🙁
