Also Says He’s Not Involved with Needlemouse
We just got this in a couple minutes after publishing a story that has since been retracted. The story involved alleged details for Project Needlemouse being revealed by a 4chan poster claiming to be Christian Whitehead, known as The Taxman.
Whitehead just returned our request for comment, and tells us that poster was an imposter.
“It’s definitely not me,” Whitehead told TSSZ News. “Someone was obviously just trolling the boards.”
Whitehead went a little further on Sonic Retro and laid to rest any murmurs of his involvement with the next Sonic.
“I’m not involved with Project Needlemouse,” Whitehead elaborated. “That is all.”
It is short, it is sweet, and it is enough for us to retract the story that involved Whitehead’s handle from our site. It’s actually a retraction double shot: because Whitehead made clear he’s not involved with the game, we’ve also retracted a September 9th story that speculated on the possibility, and was clearly labeled as rumor.
But be advised: With some of the weird things happening of late regarding Needlemouse, it remains likely that some of the details from that conversation–as well as details reported here and elsewhere Friday regarding the game–are accurate. It is why TSSZ News is now treating this matter as a leak, and not as pure rumor. Hate the sinner, love the sins. We will keep tabs.

Oh man. This is also intense.
I knew it wouldn’t be from him.
We still haven’t learned anything about the Sonic CD Iphone port yet.
Of course it wasn’t him, why anyone believes anything from a anime porn board is beyond me.
I still think he has some connection with the iPhone emu/
i dont get it some one explain it to me please.
I agree with Eggfang. Didn’t they do this a few other times with Unleashed? And it turned out to be complete BS?
lol poor sega is a mess nowadays. =p oh well still looking forward to this…idk why, but I have a slightly good feeling about this, but it is too early to call it hope.
i’m sorry but i couldnt help but lol at the title
TheOGB: OMG, LOL! I didn’t even think of that until you said that.
Sega that?
Is this really worth writing an article about? Really?
Taxman is potty trained! Obviously he didn’t leak on 4chan.
Yeah, I guess I used too few words.
So I’ve made a more appropriate append.

Sonic fans will leak when they find out about the new HD gameplay trailer Sega posted for Sonic 4.
Well Sega wasn’t kidding about new info Project Needlemouse though not in the way people would of thought
Or MAYBE sega wants to take it down so we THINK its real and then they blow our expectations away!
Nah, sega’s not that smart.
“This fandom is afraid of me. I have seen its true face. The forums are extended gossip mills and the gossip is full of lies and when the threads are finally locked, all the Sonadow shippers will drown. The accumulated filth of all their porn and whining will foam up about their waists and all the furries and old schoolers will look up and shout ‘Save us from the Sonic Cycle!’… and I’ll look down and whisper ‘Iie.’ ”

Does anyone here know ‘what’ was the leaked information? Please tell, I wanna know.
It doesn’t matter, it was already proven fake simply by the name the person chose to use. <_<
Yeah, I was there when that thread happened. It’s hard to trust this guy, especially after Wentos.
With a neame like “Wentos”, I can’t believe anyone ever considered taking him seriously.
