Crystal Clarity of Splash Hill, Inside
Tired of those hit and miss magazine scans of Sonic 4 features from this month? Upset you can’t see every little detail of what’s revealed? Do you insist on only the highest quality screenshots?
We have the solution.
Below are ten clean, flat screenshots from this month’s focus on Splash Hill Zone. They are courtesy of UK site GamesRadar, which uploaded the screenshots to complement a preview they have relayed from NGamer magazine.
Some of these screenshots are new, and some are not. But all of them are in high resolution, and all appear to be from the Wii edition of Episode 1.
Check them out in the gallery below.

Yeah, this is cute and all, but I want to see other zones.
Oh my god, it just keeps looking better and better.
The Rabbit animal in the 4th pic is named Pocky right?
The color in these screens is kinda dull. Otherwise, I am so freakin stoked for this game right now!
MY GOD
Epic Win!!!
I buy today $50 credits on my PSN
I buy 1800 M$ today too
And next mouth buy Wii Points
I buy this points ONLY for pay sonic 4 , only for this.
I can’t wait.
Allright, nothing against the Speed boosters, but they can make the gameplay very automatic, so, I hope these things aren´t near every loop in the game, I still wanna have a reason to use the Spindash and perhaps some momentum (like they advertised a while back), but it´s the first Zone, so it´s fine that there are a couple boosters, the first Zone was almost always (one of) the fastest Zone(s) in the classic games!
I hope the video that is announced to “come soon” will show off some momentum based stuff aswell as classic sonic style physics!
I´m hoping for the best, but I´m always prepared for a 180!
So far its looking pretty good!
I hope that last picture with the wall breaking features the classic smash-the-rocks sound from S3K.
I’ll be honest, I am getting a little tired of the teasers and the showcasing of the first level again and again, I kinda want to play the game now.
It’s not that I’m ungrateful, but you’d think they’d tease us with a screenshot or two of another stage like they used to back when they announced Sonic 2, 3 and & Knuckles back in the day.
Awsome game
I want it so bad, like I always want a Sonic game 
He’s back!!!! but seriously i will buy this the minute it hits the online store. I hope for each act like the sunset splash hill there is different music like S3&K.
Absolutely disgusting and cynical watermarks on those pics.
ah shoot, and here I thought Dr, Eggfang and his depressing rainy cloud had finnaly left us, silly me.
Ah yes I should bah along to SEGA’s PR like the rest! Sorry if you can’t comprehend anything that isn’t unfounded praise.
Love how these 1080P shots start with Wii in their filename, great job Gamesradar those are definitely from the Wii the most high def console this generation!
Also a huge HUGE fan of “crystal clarity” meaning “covered in artifacts!”
@ Crysore
Well he is right. We could all use less watermarks.
This game looks aweful. Seriously, they should have made it look alot better and fresh. This just looks like sunset hill. It lacks the surealism that made the first 3 games so great. The fan game looks better. And that’s coming from someone who hates fangames. Yes a real copy of emerald hill looks better than this mess
In the classic games, Sonic wouldn’t need a booster to SPIN DOWN A FUCKING HILL.
Fail.
Dimps can’t stop remaking Chemical Plant Zone.
Unpleasable fanbase is unpleasable, as per usual.
Epic Sonic game is EPIC >_>
“Love how these 1080P shots start with Wii in their filename, great job Gamesradar those are definitely from the Wii the most high def console this generation!”
Hahaha,1080P Wii,Gamesradar Wii fanboy =P
By the way the other day when i said about sega releasing the episodes one after another, I meant it as in question mark like things… example:
“Sonic 4 has 3 episodes!? And *hopefully* from July the episodes could be released one after another!”
do you understand now? I didn`t nessacarily say that they WERE going to be out a month after each other… lol.
By the way, Did SEGA actually say that Episode one was gonna have only 4 Zones? And did the guy actually say that All episodes are going to consist of only 4 Zones each? Cause to me that sounds like a fan based soloution thing…
I mean, after reading updates here, I didn`t see this:
“Sega says there will be 3 episodes with 4 Zones each”
PS: I love how they make todays 2.5D games! Sonic 4 and New Super Mario Bros Wii look like each other (duh) but only in their own themes.
Finally seeing Sonic in 2.5D on a HD console. ^_^
@blueblur
Yes =D
Mario and Sonic is best on 2,5D nostalgic form xD
I really love it.
@Lucas: they are better in 2.5D now arn’t they? ^_^
and after a bit of scopping, yeah it looks like SEGA said that each episode is gonna be small, with i pursume, 4 zones… lol.
And It annoys me to still see people moan about this game, You got what you`ve wanted. a brand new (or rehash, dont care) 2.5D HD SIDE SCROLLING SONIC GAME CALLED SONIC 4!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-_- ah well, atleast IGN hasn`t moaned yet.. lol
@Lucas: By the way, I`ve got the Mario one and everytime I play it, I get more excitment for the Sonic 4 game. lol You`ll see, each episode will kick marios butt! lol. Well, I hope the sales are good, cause then we`ll get more episodes ^_^
@blueblur: Indeed thats one good reason why i am going to like game is because its downloadable so Sega could keep making awesome Sonic 4 zones and extra content.
