The new gameplay footage, uploaded by NeoGAF, shows some impressively speedy gameplay coupled with a lot of "Ha!" and "Go!" outbursts spoken by Sonic as he collects coins. It's unclear if the repetitive dialog is exclusive to the Japanese version of the game, but at least the game looks fun.

In North America and Europe Sonic Unleashed is exploding on every viable console on the market with a PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii, and PlayStation 2 version that Japan isn't getting. Sega of Japan plans to release Sonic: World Adventure (renamed to better fit Sonic's journey around the Earth and downplay the Werehog thing?) only on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and Wii. The PlayStation 2 port will be completed before Sonic: World Adventure launches in Japan so this begs the question why is Sega passing on it? It's not like Sega Japan is abandoning the PlayStation 2 entirely. Thunderforce VI comes out on Thursday in Japan and unless Sega has anything secretly planned it will be the final PlayStation 2 game published by Sega in the region.

Ripten highlights three new Sonic Unleashed stages with video and descriptions of each.

"Sega has just sent us over two new trailers for their upcoming Sonic Unleashed title. The next-gen trailer showcases Sonic making his way through both day and night versions of Shamar, a sand filled backdrop, complete with ancient buildings and an Arabian beat.

Those concerned that the music may cause Sonic to suffer the same fate as Sackboy can rest easy. This Middle Eastern number is purely instrumental. No lyrics FTW!

In addition to the next-gen stage, the second trailer highlights two levels for the Wii titled Spagonia (openly influenced by European architecture) and Apatos (one feta cheese crumb away from being Greece)."

WARNING CONTAINS SPOILERS...

TalkPlayStation.com writes:"Sonic Unleashed is an upcoming video game and is the next game in the Sonic series. The game is due to be released in November. Here's some details on the game.

Sonic and his Werehog self will be the only playable characters. You can unlock a super form for both variations of Sonic. Eggman will be the main villain from start to finish, he's not totally in control towards the end but suddenly turns the tables. In previous games he loses control of the situation at the very last moment."

"I would love to tell you that from what I saw of Sonic Unleashed that I knew, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that this was going to be the game that brought back Sonic from the hellish hole he's been digging himself into ever since Sonic Adventure 2. I'd love to do that but I just can't, because from what I saw the game looks like it could be totally amazing or an even lower level of suck than Sonic has ever hit before. The level demonstrated for the press was a Grecian city (all the levels will be loosely based on actual world locations) that didn't have name yet and we got to see both gameplay modes the game will feature: day and night."

Other big names include Golden Axe Riders for the PS3/360 and a follow-up to 2005's Yakuza for the PS2, both due in September. Gearbox's Aliens: Colonial Marines, a game we've seen nothing of since its announcement in February, will be out in the first quarter of next year.

Some who unfortunately played through the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of Sonic the Hedgehog not only sat through awful gameplay, but disturbing scenes as well. Oddly enough, one of these scenes actually involved Sonic kissing a human woman. Yeah, odd indeed. However, Sega promises that with Sonic Unleashed, Sonic will not be making out with any humans. Thank God.

May 15, 2008 - Sonic the Hedgehog fans have survived for too long on a diet of mediocre sequels with clumsy controls and broken cameras -- a selection of games conducted to a catastrophic symphony with 2006's PS3 / Xbox 360 title Sonic the Hedgehog. But there is finally a light at the end of the long tunnel, and it's a bright one. At its Gamer's Day event in San Francisco on Wednesday, SEGA showed off an updated demo of Sonic Unleashed, a project powered by a proprietary new 3D engine, a great sense of style and uncharacteristic polish for the formerly slumbering series. Having watched SEGA reps zip through two beautiful looking stages filled with classic 2D-esque loops and corkscrews in addition to fully 3D cities, we can optimistically state that Sonic is finally back

Sega has "unleashed" a handful of new screenshots of its upcoming Sonic instalment, Sonic Unleashed - and worryingly it's still looking quite good. The new game, which will be on Wii, Xbox 360 and PS3, takes a long-awaited refocus on platforming (the crazy wolf stuff aside). Reassuringly, the game's lead designer Yoshihisa Hashimoto has even cut ties with the last awful 360/PS3 Sonic game, stating that Unleashed ... » Read More

Never mind that Sega's crack legal team already confirmed Sonic Unleashed, Official Nintendo Magazine (UK) has a world exclusive! The Wii game will be out this winter, use the Wii-mote and Nunchuk, but won't have online, it seems. Fair enough, the game seems like an old school Sega platformer - a good thing. Says the game's lead designer, Yoshihisa Hashimoto:

"In our minds, this game will have more in common with the older Sonic Adventure series. It has no relation to Sonic the Hedgehog [the 360/PS3 game] or Sonic And The Secret Rings... We wanted Sonic fans to love Sonic even more. Also, for people who are not familiar with Sonic, we think that this will be a great way to introduce them to Sonic The Hedgehog."
