Now by readng these posts, I have come to a conclusion that "Why the hell would this game exist in the first place?!"
99.999 Percent is guessed that this is either a fangame, or a dream. And yes, SatAM Fans should finally realize that they'll never have their own, published, Sega Game.
The biggest thing that gave this away was the fact that Sonic Team (let alone Sega) is not publishing the game. And I hope this comes to an end soon... It's really starting to bug me.
If it gets down to the point where I'll have to see some Hoax Screenshots...Good god, Becky...
you better run.

Oh, BTW, the article was updated soon after. Quote: UPDATE: [8th June 2005] Amidst talk of whether the game is real or not, SEGA have denied the existence of the production of the game at sources such as Computer&Video Games etc, and SONIC NEWS spoke to SEGA today and recieved a "No Comment". Funnily enough, website backbiting and swelling egos attempt to swamp the Sonic Community, with websites emphasising the phony nature of the story almost ridiculing those sites who did report on the news in the first place. Despite the fact that websites such as SONIC NEWS who reported on the story did so with ultimate objectivity (as all good news sources should), with no hints to the sites belieiving the project to be TRUE specifically, but merely reporting on the existence of the rumour and the potential of said project. SONIC NEWS hopes other sites will be more professional in understanding this critical aspect of news reporting. Arms are up in the air as to whether the project itself, however, IS alive, dead or never existed in the first place. SEGA may have said "No" and the company is quick to deny and remove all information and speculation regarding upcoming games. But the simple "no" quote is very vague - an actual statement along the lines of "We are not producing an online Sonic the Hedgehog game at this time" would have eased lots more minds. What this "no" means regarding Panovation is entirely a matter of context. SEGA's context. Indeed, there are suggestions that Panovation may have broken an embargo, or that the small studio are actually exaggerating what could be a fangame and passing it off as an "official title". Again, SONIC NEWS stresses that until SEGA or SONICTEAM comment fully on the situation, the actual validity of Panovation's project should be taken with a barrel of salt. As always, you will find intelligent Sonic fan discussion on this matter in our SSMB Forums. Feel free to post your opinion there (linked to this topic on the left hand side) or in the comments page in SONIC NEWS. Lets hope for the best.... as in, this is a fangame.
