Sonic to get a fresh start in 2012
With Sonic Generations Sonic Team admirably took almost everything that didn’t suck about the past 20 years of the blue blur’s career and put it in one game. Even Sonic’s own reaction to the events and character reveals seemed to reflect fan frustration with the direction the series has taken over the years. It’s the perfect end of an era for Sonic, which is likely why producer Takashi Iizuka told Gamasutra that he’s ready for the series to take a new direction.

Fans will certainly be happy to hear that small changes like that are the extent to which Takashi plans on modifying the Sonic formula.
