== The game will have some sort of tribute to the memory of [[Michael Jackson]]. ==
Becasue it would be [http://kotaku.com/5420201/sonics-shoes-inspired-by-michael-jackson blasphemous] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbVM-l2Oku4 not to]!
 
== The game will begin and end with Sonic celebrating his birthday party. ==
Line 44:
 
== Classic Sonic is overwriting Modern Sonic's memories. ==
* Think about it. If Classic Sonic is supposed to be the childhood of Modern Sonic, then everything Classic Sonic experiences, Modern Sonic will remember. For example, Classic Sonic will notice the classic levels are different from before, and Modern Sonic will remember that. However, events from the modern games, Modern Sonic will remember as being different from when he encountered them as Classic Sonic, which could possibly override his memories of when he properly encountered them. For example, Modern Sonic will remember that the GUN Truck chasing him is different from when it chased him as Classic Sonic, but not remember it as different from when it chased him in [[Sonic Adventure 2]], since the events of this game would overwrite that history.
 
== The GUN Truck has been modified with Eggman Nega's future technology. ==
* How else can it drive alongside a building? Also, given its insane driving moves, intent on killing both Sonics, and the utter disregard for property damage and civilian casualties, this troper is convinced that there is no one behind the wheel, and the truck is now DRIVING ITSELF! Nega upgraded a lowly capture truck into a weapon-equipped, self-aware [[Boss in Mook Clothing]]!
** The truck driving itself would be a brilliant [[Shout-Out]] to Stephen King's ''[[Maximum Overdrive]]''!
*** Jossed as far as we can tell. There's no mention of Eggman Negative at any point in the game.
 
Line 58:
== Classic Sonic will be voiced by Roger Craig Smith doing a high pitched voice. ==
No wonder Sega asked him to do a deep voice for Sonic in ''[[Sonic Colors|Colors]]''.
* Semi-confirmed: Classic Sonic's VA is Smith, but even though he'll probably be using a high-pitched voice for him, we don't know yet.
** [http://forums.sega.com/showthread.php?367538-Something-I-noticed-in-the-trailer&p=6593071 Jossed by SEGA.] Classic Sonic is confirmed to be voiceless, and any conclusions to the contrary were due to the trailer editor throwing modern Sonic voice clips in with the classic part of the trailer [[They Just Didn't Care|for the heck of it.]]
*** Well, it ''was'' just a trailer.
Line 134:
 
== There will be some [[Culture Clash|clash between the old and the new]]. ==
Due to the differences between the Genesis games and the Post-''[[Sonic Adventure]]'' games in both gameplay and the [[Character Development|the character's personalities]], this is almost inevitable.
* For example, Modern Sonic is confused at why Classic Sonic is so fat, and why Classic has to pump his hands when he runs rather than [[Airplane Arms|Modern's method.]]
** I'm wondering why he pumps his hands at all when he's at full speed; Sonic keeps his arms bent close to his body when at top speed in the Genesis games.
Line 149:
* Past Sonic learned from modern Sonic that running at incredibly high speed is easier that way, as his arms will be floating of the air resistance rather than fighting against it, as well as serving as balance aids; classic Sonic then replicates this in [[Sonic CD]].
** Yes, but CD came before Sonic 3 (and probably 2). Why would he stop doing the [[Bird Run]] if he found it more efficient?
*** Actually, CD is now chronologically set between Episode 1 and 2 of [[Sonic the Hedgehog 4]]. So...
*** That doesn't make sense if ''4'' = Modern Sonic and ''CD'' = Classic Sonic. I think people were reading too much into that vague hint about ''CD'' being connected to ''4''.
 
Line 169:
Mainly as a bit of [[Self-Deprecation]] on [[Sonic Team]]'s part.
* For example, Modern Sonic will bring up [[Noodle Incident|the time]] he kissed a human, [[Squick|clearly disgusted at bringing it up.]] Classic Sonic is also a bit disgusted, but for [[Girls Have Cooties|one other reason...]]
** It's hard for Sonic to express disgust at kissing a human, considering [[Did Not Do the Research|he never did]]. It's also hard for him for show disgust at being kissed, considering that he might have not known it had happened. You know, due to the whole "being dead and revived into his [[Super Mode]] (complete with the bright light obscuring EVERYTHING) within the span of five seconds" thing. And the "him not being nearly as butthurt as [[Fan Dumb|some people]] were about the [[Interspecies Romance]]" thing. That whole [[Retcon|"the plot of the game didn't happen"]] thing might count for something too.
* Levels from ''06'' show up, but the two Sonics agree that [[That One Level|they aren't worth completing.]] They can still be completed [[For the Lulz]], [[What the Hell, Player?|but the game clearly question's the player's taste if they do.]]
** The level would be completely reimagined and amped up in quality. What would be the point in guilt tripping people for playing it if it didn't actually doesn't suck anymore?
Line 200:
== Some elements from the Sonic 1 beta will appear. ==
* Remember the Sonic Band? They could appear in this game's sound test. Madonna, the scrapped love interest, might even make an appearance... as a [[Take That]] to the folks who are still sore about Elise.
** Somewhat confirmed, at least by Classic Sonic's victory poses when he hits the signs, which he was originally intended to do.
** I'd like to see the Marble Zone [[UFOs]] or some of Sonic 2's Lost Levels myself.
* Confirmed. Vector plays keyboard in a challenge.
 
Line 338:
* As a reference to [[The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog]], which will have Modern Dr. Robotnik remember why he got rid of those three in favor of [[Sonic Unleashed|Orbot]] & [[Sonic Colors|Cubot]].
** ...Hey, that would actually be kinda cool.
*** That. Is. Amazing.
**** Jossed.
 
Line 402:
 
== [[Sonic 3 and Knuckles|Hyper Sonic]] (and possibly something beyond) will appear in this game, and be playable as both Sonics. ==
* [[Rule of Cool]] aside, the Sonics go through 3 different eras, so who's to say there won't be three sets of Chaos Emeralds [[Stable Time Loop|as long as they put all of them back in their eras.]]
** If the Emeralds are capable of warping time, chances are there will only be one set of Emeralds throughout, but their chaotic nature makes them change colors.
*** Jossed.
Line 432:
** "[[Sonic Colors|If Eggman starts claiming to have reformed]], [[Civilian Villain|don't believe him for a second.]]"
** "The [[Super Mario Bros.|plumber]] isn't such a [[Console Wars|bad guy]] when you get to know him. You probably won't believe me when I say this, but [[Mario and Sonic At The Olympic Games|you'll both look back and laugh about this whole thing in the future.]]"
*** "[[Super Smash Bros.|Try to stay away from a weird]] [[Metal Gear Solid|cardboard box]]. The snake inside it doesn't like hedgehogs!"
** "Try to make sure [[Sonic Battle|the bat thief and pink hedgehog don't kill each other]]."
** "Don't let Eggman do your [[Sonic Labyrinth|shoe shopping]]!"
Line 440:
* Dude, I would ''love'' to see that happen. I won't keep my hopes up about the word about Mario, though.
** Don't be too wishy-washy on that QUIET yet. Sega did have him in THEIR olympic games which I like.The only thing I can agree on is the snake thing. Also, in the 3DS version of [[Metal Gear Solid]] Snake Eater, there is a Yoshi doll in the jungle, as [[Nintendo Power]] said.
* I'd like to see this as well. It might just count as a [[Crowning Moment of Funny]], [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming]], [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]], AND a [[Tear Jerker]] all at once!
* Confirmed. {{spoiler|"Hey, Sonic! Enjoy your future! It's gonna be great!"}}
 
Line 482:
** Or it could be an old Future Sonic who's become bitter and decides to try committing griefless suicide by killing his past self. It would explain why the Sonics keep finding themselves where there's a ton of conflict going around, such as the city with the G.U.N. truck.
*** Wait... First off, what causes Sonic to become suicidal? Secondly, I highly doubt even a bitter Sonic would let his past self die, lest Eggman take over.
**** Also, plotlines like these are why most of Sonic's past games got huge amounts of criticism. Doubtful that a suicidal Sonic would ever appear in this game.
***** Jossed.
 
Line 544:
== Tombstones of deceased characters will appear ==
Possibly at Big's funeral, or in a Werehog level, or Crisis City.
