Sega return to platforming roots with a new multi-format project, Sonic the Hedgehog 4.
Recently snooping through Sega's FTP archive, whilst grabbing the files for The Conduit, we noticed new assets for a couple of games - including one particularly interesting one, Sonic the Hedgehog 4. We kid you not. It seems to be a high-definition 2D platformer starring Sonic, Tails, Chuckles and Eggman - oh, and the much loved Jet the Bird.
Fortunately the trailer has since been removed, and we're desperately hoping this game will be canned - why? Have a look at the debut trailer...

Update: Sega's Doctor Eggman sent us the following email:
Dear Cubed3,
How's it going? I'm sitting here munching on rotten eggs when I found your website. The video is a fake. I put it up on the Sega website because I was feeling lonely and Sonic hasn't whopped me bottom in a long time! Anyways, Sonic 4 is not real.
Have fun!
Love, Eggman

The text in the news post tells me all I need to know.
I mean Knuckles has specifically said he doesn't Chuckle (unlike Sonic). Case closed.

That confirms it's had more effort than the GBA port of Sonic 1!

I think if I were a developer on April 1st, I would release info on a real game I was developing alongside a bogus game just to screw with people's heads.

That game is returning to the hardcore once more.
The revolution that this game will provide for the Sonic series will be of such a great magnitude..I can't even imagine a comparison for it!
BRAVO SONIC TEAM.
FINALLY.
THANK YOU.
