http://www.sonicstadium.org/sonicnews/262/ SEGA of Europe confirmed that there WILL NOT be any pc version of this game.
Maybe SEGA Will make a PC version later,Since Sonic Racers did have a PC version.--LavaBall 07:47, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
The letter Sega sent may or may not be true; we can't know for sure. This information is original research and unverifiable, and should not be included in this article. – Prototime ( talk • contribs) 17:25, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
instead of making a pc version they should have done a san andreas and made it on the Wii. (gta sa originated on PS2 but was later introduced onto the Xbox and PC). a game like that should have been made for all next gen consoles. critics may not recomend it as a good game but they have done worse and i for one want to see this game on the wii. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.190.84.142 ( talk) 14:09, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
So you're saying that a letter directly from SEGA might not be official? MindWraith 06:11, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
I'm saying that, according to Wikipedia standards, a personal letter is original research, is not verifiable, and should not be referenced in an article. See WP:NOR and WP:Verifiability for the logic as to why. – Prototime ( talk • contribs) 07:23, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
You know, if you really don't like that letter, you could contact Sega and try to make the information known in a public form. Just dismissing it entirely through a nuance of Wikipedia procedure when it's obviously a thorough debunking to a claim with shoddy evidence to begin with is disingenuous and ultimately harmful to Wikipedia's credibility; many fans are linking this article as "proof" and will soon discover it, and by extension Wikipedia, to be unreliable.

There's still the problem of:
Now, I can't understand Finnish, so I don't know what to make of the third link. However, the first link is from Amazon and the second is from Gamestation, a company owned and operated by Blockbuster. If the PC version is never to be released, then it was unceremoniously canceled. There is probably plenty of bad information out there in fan-world, but the existence of a once-upcoming PC port is what our sources indicate. – Gunslinger47 20:47, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
Amazon also listed iWork and iLife 2008 just before an Apple event, renamed them to Announcement 1 and 2 but finally took them down when they didn't exist. I don't think Amazon is very good proof. 82.29.250.53 00:48, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
The PC Sonic The Hedgehog did exist - it's advertised on the back page of the Sonic Riders instruction manual (it says it's on PC DVD and XBox 360, no mention of PS3). I guess it was cancelled. Digifiend 08:50, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
I've noticed that the information on the gameplay of the three hedgehogs (Sonic, Silver and Shadow) goes to excessive length to describe their abilities. I don't have the game and therefore don't quite know how to do it, but it would be a good idea to create a heading quickly describing the abilities of the various characters, perhaps in a table to show which ones are shared and which differ from each character. What do you think? ( 211.30.189.31 07:23, 24 March 2007 (UTC))
What should be mentioned in this article, is that this game should not be confused with the Sega Genesis game of the same name. -- PJ Pete
I think I noticed a plothole in the end.
Please reply about this -- StrongCool 23:05, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, in the Hang Castle level of Sonic Heroes, a full moon is shown, and in some commercials and previews etc in Shadow the hedgehog a full moon is shown as well, and possibly in some levels, despite the fact that canonically, Eggman blew up half the moon in SA2B. Perhaps as in Sonic X, the moon was reconstructed, weather out of metal or rock, and weather by Eggman (or possibly GUN) is not known. Notably, in Sonic X Eggman rebuilds the half of the moon out of metal and it is referred to after that as the Egg Moon.
^ It seems some peoples don't like using their heads >.> Eggman DIDN'T blew up half the moon. Just a little part of it. So everytime the moon is shown looking unscratched, that's because is showing the side that is intact. And the moon in the opening of Shadow the Hedgehog DOES show the part Eggman blew up, revealing its "scar". So do everyone a favor and THINK posting stupid messages _-_
If you ask me, just ignore the moon. It's not that big a deal in the Sonic games. Just there for the background.
^ You do realize, however, that anyone who even PLAYS the new Sonic games doesn't like using their head, right? Sega just sucks at making storylines, thats all. And of course, at the end, ELise just HAS to remember who Sonic was, even after they put out the eternal flame in the past or however the hell they did it.

Sonic Next is delayed according to GAMEHEAD.com.au, and have received a new release date. According to a recent email received March 28, the game is still coming, albeit late on April 29. This is the email (and you can ask them too at the address shown by clicking the live help desk box in the upper right-hand corner):
“ | Hi (name),
All of the release dates listed on GAMEHEAD.com.au are confirmed dates for actual titles forwarded to us exclusively by the publisher. These dates can be subject to change at the publisher’s discretion; however they’re generally accurate to the minute as we update them constantly to reflect the publisher’s schedules. Kind regards, Suite 603, Level 6 |
” |
In addition, no one has yet received a cancellation on their preorder for Sonic the Hedgehog (PC) on Amazon.co.uk. Before the game was removed from the site, it stated "limited availability", so it was probably removed due to preorder limits being filled on the game. –Sonichedgehog360 16:01, 28 March 2007
As of yet, only Australia is confirmed, so I put an Australia flagcon for the PC release on April 29, 2007. –Sonichedgehog360 16:12, 28 March 2007
“ | Hi (name),
Sonic Riders for PC is a port of the console title of the same name, while Sonic The Hedgehog on PC is the next-gen title currently under release on PS3 and Xbox360. The Sonic Mega Collection plus is also available on GAMEHEAD.com.au under the gamers choice label (we’ve all played way too much of this). Kind regards, Suite 603, Level 6 |
” |
The game is thus confirmed only for Australia through THQ Publishing as this moment. Please do not remove the information previously added again or I will report you to Wikipedia admin. –Sonichedgehog360 17:06, 29 March 2007
so,does that mean only austrailia, or only confirmed in austrailia?
I haven't played the game before, but is this true? -- Coconutfred73 06:11, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
"According to the information disclosed on the American game site, there are a total of eleven stages, meaning there is still one unknown, unannounced stage." You mean out of the thousands of people who have this game, noone has ever unlocked the last stage? As well as many other old things. MindWraith 08:12, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
Well I'm new to wiki so I did some edits to this games story, which is too long. I also did minor edits to the Shadow the Hedgehog video game page.-- S200048 14:47, 26 April 2007 (UTC)s200048 —The preceding unsigned comment was added by S200048 ( talk • contribs) 14:44, 26 April 2007 (UTC).

Uhh... someone put info about the action stages, should we get rid of it? And someone made a joke at the end of sonics story. It says sonic farted in eggmans face.

I'm trying to clean up the character section right now. Earthere 17:06, 27 May 2007 (UTC)Earthere
I've just found something about the Computer animation in the game. It is made by the same studio who made the CG movies in Shadow the hedgehog. Umm.. i'm wondering if this should be put under the trivia section. The studios name is Blur Studio Inc. I saw it on their website www.blur.com I guess they like sonic. Its funny b/c this game was made in japan, and they're american. But shadow the hedgehog was made in sanfrancisco, so whatever.-- S200048 23:49, 29 May 2007 (UTC)s200048
You know, people, in one of the trailers of the game, there is music from Pirates of the Caribbean. Should I write it into the article? Leader Vladimir
What, which trailer? and what about the trivia about the CG movies? I also have more trivia. Sonic Next Gen is the first 3D Sonic game that tails isn't seen with a machine to drive or fly him around. Am i right?-- S200048 14:15, 5 June 2007 (UTC)s200048
No Sonic Hog
I'm not right?-- S200048 15:47, 7 June 2007 (UTC)s200048
No, your not. MindWraith 06:39, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
Tails was seen driving a plane in sonic adventure. He was seen with his cyclone in sonic adventure 2. He was seen flying the cyclone in sonics opening in sonic heroes. He was seen flying it in one movie in the circus park level in shadow the hedgehog. I didn't see him with any vehicle in sonic next gen. I also saw him flying the cyclone in sonic riders in one of the ending movies in sonics story. How am I wrong??-- S200048 15:34, 8 June 2007 (UTC)s200048
Sorry. I was just curious why people kept saying I was wrong.-- S200048 00:38, 9 June 2007 (UTC)s200048
Is there anyway for this game to tie in with Sonic Rush. I mean, the two games contradict eachother, yet, according to some of the more diehard Sonic fans, it is canon. That leads to another question; is it this game or Soinc Rush that is canon? Michael Mad 09:31, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
Well... acually, after you beat this games last story, all of the events never happened. That is why some say sonic next gen is canon. Maybe that is why blaze doesn't know sonic in sonic rush. Because she first met him in sonic next gen. But after all the events were erased from elise blowing out solaris' flame. She re-met him in sonic rush.... possibly.-- S200048 14:29, 9 June 2007 (UTC)s200048
It's all so confusing. Michael Mad 17:13, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
If you ask me, just forget it. I'm a bit confused myself. I'm just assuming that Sonic Rush is AFTER Sonic the Hedgehog. But I still believe what fans are saying about the game's ending. That Sonic DOES remember everything.
Actually, If you can avoid the ripple effect (by being outside of time or something similar), you will retain memories. Well, last time I checked anyway. Sabre Knight 18:43, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
Edit: Just re-read the article. It seems like he only remembered subconciously, which can happen, and does often happen in science fiction when events are canclled. Sabre Knight 18:46, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
Since the events never happended (mentioned above), Iblis never existed, therefore Blaze couldn't seal it within herself. But I'm working on a theory that since Blaze was now in a different universe, the time/space collision and seperation was enough power to un-do the events of Sonic's universe, but just re-did some things in Blaze's new world, so that time was partially reset to a point that Blaze appeared to have lived there all her life. Also, I read in the Silver's Story Section that when Silver tried to seal Iblis in himself, he was somehow rejected, and Blaze did it instead. I've seen that cutscene, and from what I saw, it seemed more like he almost succeeded in sealing Iblis inside him, and probably would have, but Blaze noticed that it was draining him of his life energy (kinda like Shadow removing his Life Force Bracelets), causing him a good deal of physical pain (and possibly some mental), she interupted the "sealing" and forced Silver to stop, intervered and sealed Iblis inside herself instead of Silver, saying that "Flames are already within [Blaze's] soul.". This was pretty much proved when Blaze was finished with the sealing, because she wasn't in any pain. And, just before she dissapeared into another dimension, she and Silver were arguing, because Blaze was saying how they swore to do anything to save their future, but Silver was said he wasn't sure if he could live not knowing her fate. Blaze is then covered in a soft orange glow, and her voice stars to fade, but the player can hear her whisper to Silver, "You've always been a bit naive. But,... I've always liked that about you..." And we all know the rest, she dissapears, Silver's looking ready to commit suicide with one of Shadow's guns (LOL), he ends up in the space/time rift, bla bla bla. You get the point. -MaceKiwi —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.27.231.237 ( talk) 05:26, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
Shouldn't the English voice cast be separated from the Japanese cast?
I have read all the gamesite reviews and the best review I saw was three out of five stars. The game revieved similar reviews from other sites, showing fifty percent and 5 out of 10 point reviews, many sites even listed EVERY feature under the negative section. My dad owns a PS3, and I wanted to buy this game but now I'm not so sure. Anyone who owns the PS3 version of SONIC THE HEDGEHOG and is a SONIC fan, could you please tell me if the game is as bad as everyone makes it out to be? Thanks.
Its not all bad but theres way too many loading screens, all 3 hedgehog boss scripts are done poorly they all get 1 attack only and spam it, and the high speed stages are very hard to "steer" on.

Someone removed the spoiler tags. I want them there because I read the whole plot of the game (which I'm currently playing) when i got to this article. I seriously know i would have enjoyed the story more in the game- I'm not being dramatic, I love the story.
Obviously I was not turned off from the Storyline header, maybe because I don't go to video game articles on wikipedia enough.
But with such a short few paragraphs it totally caught me off guard, in a disappointing and upsetting way- I then wrote the "Plot" section and moved storyline. But my main concern now is that people who want to see the final parts of the article will catch a glimpse of the story- so the {{endspoiler}} tag at least.
I don't know what to say, umm...there is some new stuff in there. Heh, some if it might be fancruft too. Example: "But to many Sonic fans, the game plays true." I don't know, but it looks like some sort of fan statement. The source for it has no mention of that statement at all either. So, I think it might be best to remove it. "The gameplay sticks to the fundamentals of previous sonic games (like the first); the levels are speed-oriented, for example, and Sonic remains a team player as he has been since his personality was developed in the first Sonic cartoon." This doesn't look like it should be in the Reception section, it might be something for the Gameplay section of the article though. But, I can't seem to find how to stick it in that section either, so I'll remove it for now, and maybe someone can think about it and maybe adapt that sentence for that section. So yeah, umm, discuss. :) カ ラ ム 09:12, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

Elise nothing but I not sure about Sonic —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.89.130.174 ( talk) 18:20, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Sonic partially remembered (possibly because he was with Elise when she blew out the flame after Solaris's defeat, and therefore, in a series of scientific factors, theories, and studies that would confuse a sophmore, he was able to retain some of his memory of the "said-to-not-have-happened" event), since he was smiling at Elise during the Festival of the Sun. It's unsure of the extent of Elise's memory, because she only says the wind is 'famillier'. If she'd said 'somewhat famillier' or 'pretty famillier' or 'real famillier', we'd probably know then. -MaceKiwi —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.27.231.237 ( talk) 05:35, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

I don't believe this due to Sega nor Sonic Team announcing anything about this. Don't believe everything you see on YouTube.

I recon the ending is a bit of a rip off of the Pokemon movie.

Sonic Next-Gen is actually part of a different series continued through Sonic Rivals and Sonic Rivals 2. Sega has actually stated THREE times that this game is not canon to the main series! It should be moved. If you have any questions why it isn't canon to the main series or arguments saying that it is, please ask or tell me and I'll give you an answer [in three days, im going on a mini-vacation :)]. But for now, this game should be removed from the "Main Series" section. Thanks! ^_^ Usernamesarekewl ( talk) 04:33, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

Just because the events of the game were erased from history doesn't mean it's non-canonical with the main Sonic series. There are plenty of instances in fiction where time paradoxes end up erasing events from history, but they don't regard them as non-canon. Nintendoman01 talk, 8:06, 16 December 20078
I remember reading on the game's official website that Lacey Chabert's performance as Elise in this game is the first time in the franchise that Hollywood talent provided voice-over work for a Sonic game. What about the 4Kids actors? Don't they count as Hollywood talent? While I'm on the voice cast subject, I remember reading somewhere that Elise was going to be voiced by Veronica Taylor, not Lacey Chabert.

If this is going for FAC, the writing needs to be focused like a laser. Good writing has no unnecessary words. I remove them when I see them, but TheJoebro64 tends to put them back. A few cases in point:
Joebro, it's edits like this that tanked your FA attempt. It's overly wordy.
