    I don't know about you guys, but I'm thinking Sonic Team is going to be supremely badass and title it "Sonic the Hedgehog 4."

    That would be cool if they do call it that.  Now Nintendo should take note and make Super Mario Bros. 4.

    Yeah, Sonic the Hedgehog 4 is what I want to see. I've also had my fingers crossed for Super Mario Bros. 4 for a long time, but it still hasn't happened.

    Im expecting something like Sonic, Sonic the Hedghog, Sonic's Revenge, Sonic Returns, Sonic HD or something similarely generic. Although Project Needlemouse is a name I sort of like so I hope they incorporate it somehow.

    Well Sonic 4 is the rumour, so that would be awesome, though it puts the pressure on. I'm excited.

    They already hinted that this game will be super gay since they mentioned in that whole fan shit where they revealed stuff about the game that Sonic has a new friend named Mr Needlemouse.  Seriously?  

    You know what would make Sonic team Badass?  If they showed everyone except Sonic and Robotnik getting their brains blown out and splattering on a wall and pretend that stupid characters or characters with stupid names never existed.

    All I'd love Sega to do  at this point is just 'Splosion Man with Sonic in it and a Green Hill Zone back grounds. Done. How hard can it be? Twisted Pixel managed to make one if the best 2d platformers I've played in ages, can you imagine what Casino Zone would be like with the 'Splosion Man engine?

    The only possible way Sega can make me happy with this announcement is if Project Needlemouse is in fact Alpha Protocol and they give it an actual real release date.

    Yeah, probably gonna go ahead and agree with the general audience and say Sonic the Hedgehog 4 would probably be the best name for it, however the odds of them naming it something so badass is unlikely.

    Dude, it was a joke.
     
    Anyways, I hope the game turns out well.

    Sonic the Hedgehog 4? That'd be a cool title but I'm not expecting Sega to go in that direction. It'll be interesting to see what they pick though.

    Yup it's ironic that Twisted Pixel, without the Sonic license, has made one of the best Sonic games in the last 8 years...

    OK good.  I hope what I have read about it turns out to be true.  And that the series returns the way that New Super Mario Bros brought 2d mario back.  Except those gamers were not needed as the 3d marios are classic too.

    Yeah, they showed an image with a bunch of names of obscurish Sonic characers, "Sonic," and "Mr. Needlemouse," stating some of these would be playable, and to keep checking back as they crossed the non-playable ones out. Every day they crossed more and more out, until finally it was only "Sonic." 
     
    I have a feeling that Sonic Team has their shit together, and this is going to be awesome.
