Sonic the Hedgehogbrand manager Ken Balough has confirmed thatSonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 2is in the early stages of development, but unlike withHalf-Life, we won’t have to wait years for it. He also promised it would address concerns from the first episode.
“Episode II is in early development now,” he stated. “We already had some ideas fleshed out on development for Episode I in fact. No, you definitely wont have to wait years and years a laDuke Nukem Forever.
“I certainly cannot deny there were some elements that could have been done better — and I could say that about most games I’ve worked on. That’s whyEpisode IIgives us that opportunity to address them (or as much as possible).”
He also confirmed thatEpisode 1was a commercial success for SEGA, allowing for a potentially bigger budget inEpisode 2. Looks like, as predicted, the whiners who were ready to shit all over the game bought it anyway. Principles — gamers have none.
