LONDON & SAN FRANCISCO (May 26th, 2010) SEGA ® Europe Ltd. & SEGA ® America, Inc. today announced Sonic ™ Colours, the new high-speed adventure of our famous hero Sonic the Hedgehog. Struggling with saving a colorful alien race fall into the clutches of Dr. Eggman, Sonic will face many obstacles along an inspired sci-fi themed amusement park. Sonic Colours will be available on Wii ™ and Nintendo DS ™ at the end of 2010.

A unique playground has been seen orbiting the planet of Sonic the Hedgehog. Some rumors speak of an alien race called wisps, with a rare colored energy, which is now imprisoned here, by the evil Dr. Eggman. Sonic, once arrived on the planet's entertainment, you can use immediately made aware of this rare power to help colored wisps in the escape! The Wii version of Sonic Colours combines both 2D and 3D gaming perspective, while the Nintendo DS version takes advantage of the characteristics of the double-screen console.

"The lively alien universe of Sonic Colours allows players to race at breakneck speed along amazing planets, each with its peculiarities and unique visual style." Comment on Gary Knight, Senior Vice President of Marketing SEGA. "In addition to classic Sonic gameplay, new power-wisps, they offer an innovative way to explore these new worlds and help Sonic to run faster than ever!"

The new Sonic hedgehog Colours see our dear speeding, jumping off himself among enemies like never before in a Sonic game. The aliens WISPs are able to free their "Colour Power" that can be absorbed by Sonic drilling to create new roads, for example, the ground (via the Yellow Drill), or go through the whole internship at supersonic speed (thanks to Cyan Laser). Combining the different available energies can further increase the speed of Sonic and his abilities beyond imagination. Lots of power ups and exclusive versions will be available for Wii and Nintendo DS for a brand new super-fast gameplay of Sonic for fans around the world.

Sonic Colours will be available on Wii ™ and Nintendo DS ™ at the end of 2010.

My impressions as the trailer rolled:

-the advert before the trailer is longer than the trailer
-pegi 3? uh oh...
-oh cool cgi! Sonic running, tails flying... when was the last time we say Tails simply flying?
- a squid? ristar? no, just a yellow squid thing
- color aliens?
- Sonic...
- Colors.
- ah, Sonic Paint?

after reading the press release:

So it's like the storybook games, but now it's a coloring book? Sounds a bit like Mario Galaxy combined with color specific power-ups. Could be cool, could be shit. The whole multi-colored creatures needing Sonic's help on a remote location totally sounds like the plot of 3D Blast.

Up on front page... go leave a comment. DO IT.

recycling a post I made at Sonic Stadium:

A group of multi-colored creatures are being caged up on their home turf by Doctor Eggman and Sonic needs to free them.

A-hem...



And an orbiting little planet?

*coughsoniccdcough*



Levels take place in an amusement park.

Since it got a 2010 release date, there is a big chance we'd see it at E3.
Sega's line-up is shaping up to be better than we expected.

[Dr. SEGA Monkey]

At least it's a platformer. But for some reason, it reminds me of a puzzle game.

The CG looks really nice though!

[Sharky]

Also theres some artwork on the frount page article (at the bottom)

I won't lie, I'd gladly accept Dr. E's invite and keep the aliens in their cages. Would be fun poking them with sticks.

[max_cady]

This was totally unexpected.

[Orta]

Hopefully this will be half-decent and better than Secret Rings and Black Knight.

Why am I fooling myself?

They're making me write colors again, Aki.

[fluffymoochicken]

I really love that Tails is in this game. He's a natural fit. ^__^

Colors are awesome!
