But judging from how they worded it, it seems to imply that the shoes are his source.
Oh, BTW, I just read this about Sonic and the Black Knight.
Quote:
Gameplay for Sonic and the Black Knight differs from traditional games in the Sonic series by mixing in the new element of swordplay, along with the traditional Sonic platforming and speed. Swordplay is implemented through the Wii Remote. Players will no longer control Sonic's movement on rails as the team say they have learned from the biggest criticisms about it. The gameplay will mainly be 3D, but occasionally the camera will shift to a side-scrolling perspective for traditional 2D gameplay.
Swordplay will be implemented so that players can slice through enemies without slowing down,[4] but when faced with more formidable enemies, players will engage in advanced swordplay, able to thrust, parry, and perform other maneuvers.[4] The sword will not be used just for combat; players may thrust it through a wall while falling to slow their descent.

Apparently, like Secret Rings, it's like a Storybook spinoff series...
And... 2 others will be playable.
