Declined G3; disputed prod. Prod rationale was: "Article has no references to verify content or establish notability. Not notable, crystal balling, possible hoax." The article has been edited by its original author to remove the most dubious claim (collaboration with Prope) but still has no references to substantiate content or establish notability.

- Speedy Delete - No sources, no web hits, no links, no media, no evidence, no anything. Even if it's not a hoax it still violates a dozen article standards and needs a delete. It even features an edit war in its short lifespan. If the hoax author did any actual research, they would have found that there's an actual announced game they could have created a page for; http://www.gamespot.com/news/6216991.html Datheisen (talk) 09:11, 18 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Speedy A7 - Based on the article history, seems to refer to this trailer. Some edit warring seems to refer to a different Youtube series (see this diff) which also fails A7. Nifboy (talk) 22:31, 18 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, I'm not familiar with Wikipedia's guidelines, so I apologise in advance if I'm saying something wrong, but this is a hoax, the game doesn't exist Nineko (talk) 00:13, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. I'm generally against deleting fangame articles, but this one goes well beyond a mere fangame, being so pretentious as to claim to be the genuine article (despite some obvious gaffes made - Sonic games don't take place on Mobius, never have, never again will). As far as actually applying to Wikipedia guidelines, no citations, original research, and "confirmations" of things that would probably have rocked the gaming world so hard, we'd be SWIMMING in potential citations. Just nix it, please. --Shadow Hog (talk) 01:28, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy Delete Fanmade. Has nothing to do Sega and goes against wikipedia guidelines. --Ryu (Talk | Contributions) 16:22, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
