I was at Books-a-Million yesterday, reading oodles of books/magazines, when I came across a copy of "Game" magazine (Or something like that) with a Sonic Unleashed cover story, it had a five or six page interview with one of the developers for the game, let me summarize for you:
Sonic Unleashed is being created by a team that is 100% new. NOBODY on this team worked on past Sonic games. I see this as good.
The game is being made in hopes of completely renewing people's faith in Sonic. The interviewee mentioned that he knows Sonic has become pretty disappointing, and that the games are full of flaws, he wants to change that.
3D sidescrolling can transition into full 3D gameplay seamlessly mid-stage.
Music is being composed by the guy that did Sonic Rush. (The only exception to the aforementioned "New crew.")
I just woke up, and I can't really remember much else, but it overall sounds very fruitful. Reading the interview enthused me about a game I was completely skeptical about before. I'm very excited now.
