A new 360 Trailer of Empire City hit Gametrailers.com earlier this week, and it looks amazing. It seems as if Sonic has no boundaries as he runs through the Big Apple of his world. This is the first look at Empire City we’ve seen so far. Just a little while longer folks, so hang in there! See Empire City below.

@Lol: Looks like what bothers you is what Sega says and isn’t what you expected. I always ignore those Sega comments. I take every Sonic game as a separate game. I play the game and decide how good it is dependent on how challenging it was and how many glitches I run into. Of all the Sonic games you mentioned, I found all of the as good games, especially Sonic and the Secret Rings because it was so darn hard. The game I least liked was Sonic Heroes because there was so many easy to accidentally trigger glitches in the game that I ended up dying attacking an enemy as well as the characters were shiny… that bothered me, but was survivable. But I agree that if you interpreted what Sega said the way most would I think and then played the game, it would be disappointing.
@glem3: Who cares.
@Mark Chao: I care… it was NOT what I expected… I expected the voice of a young kid like tails from sonic heroes… not this.
@Mark Chao: Heh, I wasn’t born in the 20th century. I was actually born a decent bit before the first Sonic game came out. I was playing Sonic and Sonic 2 when it was just released. Good games.
@Lol: Apparently what I said may have been interpreted a little wrong. I know where you are coming with the Fan Fictions, but if Sega is going there for only ideas. How well written the story is doesn’t matter. There are some horrible ideas out there, but there are good ones as well. Also, some Sonic fans that write stories are perfectly old enough to care if they wanted too and some of the writers do make excellent Sonic stories, I just think that they write them for people to read them and give their opinions on how to improve though.
Hmmm, this has gotten a bit off topic.
i posted the live stream a hour ago on page 29 or 28
OMG!!!! there are 4 gameplay videos on the nintendo channel!!!! (for those who don’t have a wii, this is a channel for info on nintendo games) so far, i have seen spogonia, not much though, since my internet keeps pushing me out. gotta configure firewalls, i will try to record them and post them on u tube, but that will take a while. the videos aren’t very high quality either, but it is still gameplay and it looks plain AWESOME. won’t say anything else ’til i get the game
@glem3: Boohoohoo. Who cares.
wheres the live streaming
Lawl, that’s what I thought too.
(sob) Chip kinda… kinda… sounds like SILVER (cries)
It’s not that I have a different opinion that Mark Chao has, it’s that he has no idea what he’s f*cking talking about.
Every time SEGA announces a new Sonic game they talk about going back to the roots, mixing old and new, all that bullsh*t.
And yet when the game comes out it’s nothing like that.
Remember when Sonic 06 was going to have special stages, Super Sonic in levels, 2x speed, and a day-night cycle like CLASSIC GENESIS TITLES? All that was dumped because of small development time.
Remember Sonic Heroes, how it was supposed to do the CLASSIC SONIC THEME with teams, then felt nothing like it and wasn’t fun at all?
Remember Shadow, which was supposed to combine CLASSIC SONIC SPEED with gunplay?
Remember Secret Rings which was supposed to return Sonic’s CLASSIC feel?
Not even Sonic Advance and Sonic Rush felt like the Genesis titles.
I don’t want Sonic to go back to their roots, i’m just saying that SEGA gets all the wrong ideas. Their idea of “classic Sonic” is rings, 2D, and speed. And it isn’t like that. That’s what they did with Sonic Rush, and it had no challenge. Just hold right.
lol i can’t belive chip said super duper attcak
@Lol: You got a point there though, but you can’t yell at them because they were born in the 21st century.
someone yep
@sonicsmashkirby: u saw the static hub on the live streaming?
@DarkChaos: Gamers of Sonic want a game like that because they never say “Well what about the last Sonic game that comes out?” The fans of Sonic are too young. They just go “OMG SONIC HAS A SWORD SO AWESOME”.
They are not interested in playing it, they only want to write stories and since they LUVVVV Sonic so much they throw him in there so his other fanboy/girl friends read it and don’t think about if SEGA would make a game like that or anything. They don’t even pay attention to the STORY in fanfiction. If it has Sonic, that’s all they care about.
@Mark Chao: I am one of those people too. I like new ideas, but mixing some of the old with it is nice. Lets calm down with our comments though. It would be bad it you and Lol got into a verbal fight just because you guys don’t see eye to eye.
@Lol: I’m 16 idiot, I don’t care who voiced Sonic, he could of been mute for all his games. I would like some more 2D games but I don’t go and say this game is going to suck for this. I like Black Knight because like SU it combines New and Old style. I played the Sega Genesis when I was small (like 4) and was good at it. I’m one of those mixed old and new school Sonic fan.
someone yes it’s live
even more bad news knux and shadow are not in su
