Sonic breaks on through

Sonic's next-gen outing is still several months away, but Sega's gotten into a good habit of pushing out new screens on a regular basis. The new title, simply called Sonic the Hedgehog, promises to return the speedy mascot to his former glory - forgive us if we remain skeptical (thanks a lot, Shadow).

You can see the new screens over on the Images tab. There are only three, but each seems to be "totally extreme" and "all up in our faces." There's grinding, robots, even breaking glass. How much more attitude can you cram in a trio of new shots? We daresay zero.
