On the first day of the show, Wednesday, May 18, Sega says it will update the industry on news of the next Sonic game.
And there you go. It could be Sonic DS. It could be Sonic Rush. It could be Sonic Gems Collection. It could be something entirely new. Who's to say at this point?
And yes, it's an announcement of an announcement. Dontcha just love 'em? 😛
I thought E3 was on Monday. Wow i'm behind. So there will be a new Sonic game. Sweet. 
In my opinion they should have announced this announcement of an announcement before. 😛
I wonder what the new games will be? I hope there'll be another advance title.
One with a real storyline to it, where Sonic is actually somewhere important for the duration of the game.
Sonic Battle 2 maybe? That would be sweet!
And if they dare add a Music/Toy level I will kill everyone...
Anyway, I'm betting it's Gems Collection, since it was announced in a magazine!
I wanna see Sonic go back to West Side Island. Or South Island...those are important places. It's like they have forgotten about those places or something. I know when Sonic goes on vacation he doesn't always stay in the city. Come on Sonic Team.
West Side Island? Ha, that sounds like where our new GTA-inspired Shadow came from *cue drum beat*.
In any case, I love anouncements of anouncements. Especially when announced in advance.
West Side Island = Sonic 2 locale. Duh. 
Duh.
Since that wasn't stated in the American or European manuals, I don't see how everybody can be automatically expected to know. There's no need to rub the lack of knowledge in.
West Side island eh?
Maybe they'll make a whole new backstory that links Tails in with the ancient race that lived there...or not...but it would be cool though.
And if they ever brought South Island back, I expect to see a lot of old levels appearing.
Spring Yard Zone, Marble Zone, labyrinth zone can stay where it is!
Oh, I knew about West Side Island before hand, however, in light of the recent Shadow game, I felt the need to lay an off color joke. =)
West Side Island? Never heard of it.
Come on Sam you know I was just kidding around. Anywho yea West Side Island according to SA2
| Spoilers (Select To Read) is just West of Prison Island Who nkew Sonic 1 took place so close to Shadow's hideout =P |
HANG ON...
That was the GREEN HILL zone in SA2, not the Emerald Hill Zone. green Hill = Sonic 1, and Emerald Hill = Sonic 2,West side = Sonic 2 so Green Hill does NOT equal West Side...
Oops I was wrong. 
I meant South Island.
Ironically, the first level in the Shadow Demo was called "Westopolis."
Thats the place with the aliens raining down w/lasers and stuff right? That level is gonna rule.
Yup. It was pretty cool. Lasers everywhere, destruction, and a real sense of chaos. The level actually began with Shadow falling for some reason, collecting rings as he plummeted.

Maybe it's just regional bias, but if City Escape felt like San Francisco, to me, Westopolis feels somewhat like Post-apocalyptic Los Angeles.
I heard there's going to be a new sonic game for the new consoles coming soon. I forgot wat we bsite it was. It said it was to come out in Sept. 2006 for all three systems.
Please, STOP bumping old topics with old news! It's very irritating and doesn't exactly make you look good.
