Xbox 360 PS3

Sega was showing a playable version of its next-gen Sonic at the Japan Expo, an event happening this weekend in Paris. Here are two videos (X360 version), showcasing the two characters of the game in two different levels. A third video is also on its way, and should please those for who "Sonic" rhymes with "Speed"...
Update : The second video is now online for good this time.
Update 2 : Third video added.

Also on the whole Mario and Sonic comparison, go look at maps of the old 2d levels of sonic then compare to the old 2d levels of Mario and tell me which you think would be harder to bring over to the 3d realm

I think the game looks hot guys. I doesn't seem like a lot of you guys like it. But I can't wait to see what it looks like in HD! I think I'm gonna get this one. Anyone knows when it comes out?

apparently the reason they think they need 360 and ps3 to make this game is because the game is supposed to incorporate a new havoc physics engine complete with ragdoll phycis so everything you slam into falls realistically and stuff.

that'll probably have no effect on the sonic levels whatsoever but this game will also incorporate Shadow levels with guns (and a Hummer) as well as the white Hedgehog who doesn't even run fast but has Telekenesis.

the white hedgehog levels look way to slow for my liking. but the level designs in general look great and very fast!!!

Cool. Looks quite nice.

For such a seemingly large environment, it seems to have quite a restricted area on which to play on. At least judging from the first vid.

exactly how i feel. big sonic fan here since the megadrive days, and i'm pretty excited too. i've been catching up on the sonic advances along with sonic rush recently, and sonic team still have it(except heroes, that game is absolutely horrible).
i still remember the moment i first played SA waay back. that game, with all its small drawbacks, was really breathtaking. playing this one for the first time probably won't be as awesome, but i hope it comes close.
