Video: Sonic Generations official gameplay trailer
As nice as this trailer looks, it only reminds me that Sega still doesn't know what to do with Sonic the Hedgehog.

Despite its failures, Sega just keeps on trying and this year, just in time for that 20th anniversary, Sega has come up with Sonic Generations. Not a lot is known about the game, but the teaser video making the rounds has sparked some discussion.
