When you think about Sonic the Hedgehog, what do you think about? Is it the speed that the blue blur brought to gaming? Is it the level design that punished you for either going to fast or not fast enough? Was it the deep world that led to you becoming Sonic fans and wanting to learn more and more about it? Or the characters that filled up that world and made you want to play as them? For years, Sonic the Hedgehog defined a generation of gamers. But then, some bad things happened. The games became less and less about what made the games special in the first place. Gone were the 2D style levels, and in came 3D levels. What's worse, soon, Sonic didn't act like Sonic, and other characters that weren't a good fit for the franchise were brought in too! What was a Sonic fan to do? Well, you begged for a return to the classics, you asked for games that were truly Sonic, and now, after so long, you're getting it with Sonic The Hedgehog 4_ Episode I. This beginning to a new and exciting Sonic The Hedgehog title picks up right where the last game, Sonic and Knuckles left off, and features all the great gameplay mechanics that you know and love! This is a true 2D Sonic game, and features Eggman once again trying to get rid of the fastest thing alive. Get ready to go fast and never stop, Sonic the Hedgehog is back!
