Greek Mythology Tops “For Fun” Survey
Reassuring Sonic fandom that the poll was not testing the water for the next chapter in the Sonic Storybook series, ArchangelUK posted the results of the most recent poll on the Sonic Facebook page.
It was the most descriptive and specific, Greek Myths and Legends, that won the tally, with 33 percent of the vote. Sci-fi was second with 21 percent of the vote, and horror came in third with 13 percent. Rounding out the list was Film Noir with 12 percent, Cowboy/Western with 10 percent, and the all encompassing Other category with 8 percent.
AAUK broke down the specifics of the vote demographics in his Sonic City Blognik post yesterday:
The idea of a Greek Myths & Legends Sonic Storybook series title won with a third of the vote, Sci-Fi held a solid second place – a lot of people mentioning that the traditional end of Sonic space levels were amongst their favourites and were intrigued at the prospect of a full on sci-fi Sonic. The idea of a gumshoe Sonic caught a lot of people off guard but also appealed to a lot of people as well. Horror of course immediately had people going “Werehog!” which was either a good or bad thing depending upon the person – although other crossovers like Dracula and Frankenstein were discussed. Other had a variety of… er… “creative” suggestions as well as several suggestions of course for “no more Storybook titles”.
A new, much less speculative poll is now available for voting on the Sonic Facebook page, pitting Sonic versus Knuckles.

I`ve made a game idea of an storybook! “Sonic and the Greek Gods” added with my cool box art! Sonic gets to be the god of thunder! (Or lighting)
Ooooh, I hate this Geek thing! We have it in school right now. *Sign*
I want Sci-fi! With cool stuff, something nwer you know. We had the arabian nights and king athur and all those are old stupid stories. Can’t we get something with technology?
But if they make one with this tupid greek I buy it anyway tough. The gameplay is more important but nature is important to! What can alevel in that game look life if they use this greek stuff??? I don’t know.
But they have cool gods! So blueblur´s idea is the one that should work I think.
To Osnic:
I do like sci-fi but I’d rather have the future thing last. Greek would be much better first. That means if they do Sci-fi it could be better.
Lol, the whole game would take place in Apotos.
Hah!
Sonic: Oh look it’s Shadow.
Shadow: Fool! I am Zeus! The Ultimate god!
sonic games are cool and i was thinking to about that to sonic and the greek gods and sonic and the cristiels chan about sonic has to collecting them 7 cristiels he has to be a true hero to defate this evil king name king salmon and king salmon transeforme into salveneray and sonic use 7 cristiels and transeforme into salnersonic. that wiil be so cool.
To Shirojyuu:
YAY!!!! only APOTOS *w* this is really cool
Imagine the characters might be portrayed as…
All I’m thinking of at the moment is:
Zeus = Shadow (Lightning Bolts to Chaos Spears and everything)
and Hercules = Knuckles (what with the Super Strength and all…
…
…
Xena = Blaze*RUNS*
Cerberus anybody? A cyclops perhaps?
Amy- Aphrodite?
Tails- Hermes
Knuckles- (Indeed, Soul Gauge, he play good as) Hercules
Shadow- Zeus
Well… that’s the main Sonic cast….. But what about Eggm—-
Eggman- Cyclops
It’s the best I could think of…. Certainly makes a good substitute for Sonic and the Beanstalk’s Giant Eggman.
All other details of the Story Book game, Sonic and Pandora’s box are with EvanStanley… If they do things similar to Evan’s way, then Greek mythology will possibly save the Storybook series from being “JUST average”.
I’m Greek and what I’d really like to see from a Sonic game is actually a localization at Greek language.
Sonic games are fun the way they are,but it would be nice if I could listen Sonic and the other talking at my language
Well, I did read a fan story thanks to that user named anime7990 from the art website, and for me, I did made up a story that have the Sonic videogame series. Only this one, this is for one of my storybooks. I call it Princess Cerulean and the Sonic Adventure, a story about my character, Princess Cerulean, who is being sent to the Sonic the Hedgehog videogame series by a hedgehog named Cinos, who chose Cerulean as the Sonic Chosen One, because of an evil hedgehog named Nega, who is destroying the games by absorbing them. The rest of the characters are the counterparts of my character except Yacker. Some of the characters are in different genders because of mines. I made Princess to have the same powers of Sonic than speed, reflexes, and super transformation. I can make turn into a Werehog, make her use Hyper-go-ons from the Wisps, and used Caliburn to fight while talking to him a Cinos. My story is for the anniversary of Sonic, along with Secrets Reveal and Heroes Reborn. This will be on e heck of the story yet. Btw, Ispeak a little Japanese from Sonic and the other games and shows.
