Sega Digital Brand Manager Ken Balough stopped by the GameSpot offices t' drop off a trailer for... OH me GAWD, what's that on his face?! Taking facial hair art t' t' exotic levels, Balough crafted Tails' tails on his punim t' reveal that the sub-Sonic sidekick will appear in Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 2. Metal Sonic will also be the new "old" villain.

The second installment, expected in 2012 for console digital distribution 'n mobile (iOS, Windows, Android), will have some significant changes from the less-than-enthusiastically received first installment. Balough says the company listened t' feedback, 'n episode two will have a new graphics 'n physics engine.

"There's going t' be a lot a really positive changes 'n we think the fans be going t' be really happy," said Balough, explaining that Sonic won't stick t' walls anymore 'n won't "uncurl" from ball form when going uphill. "They may not sound like a big deal, but when ye're playing Sonic 'n ye're so used t' the way the Genesis games felt, it be a big step t' pillage closer t' that Genesis feel."
