It looks like Sega took lessons in the Valve School of Episodic Gaming, as the company is "not planning" to release any further episodes of Sonic the Hedgehog 4 after Episode 2. The news comes from Sonic Team producer Takashi Iizuka, who told Digital Spy that, while the team is "looking forward to hearing the feedback" on Episode 2, it is "not planning to release another episode."
We're hoping Sonic Team hasn't already worked a cliffhanger ending into Episode 2. Is Robotnik really Sonic's father? Will Big the Cat always be frozen in carbonite? Just what is up with Tails anyway? Frankly, we don't think we can live with questions like that.
SEGA should release a new Jet Set Radio, Shenmue, and also work on some other series they gave up on. Sonic is badass, but the new games don't live up to older ones, such as Sonic Adventure 2. No one wants that blue piece of sh*t anymore. SEGA should stop being so greedy and lazy and make different games. They should stop anything at all with Sonic for a while and work on anything else, whether it is a game or not!
