In their latest episode of GTTV, GameTrailers’ Geoff Keighley got to interview Executive Producer & Writer for The Simpsons Matt Selman and talk about their upcoming video game parody episode. The episode sees Homer, Bart and Lisa go to ‘E4’, which is a take on the biggest annual event in gaming – E3. In the preview clips shown, we see Sonic the Hedgehog will again make an appearance on the show, but in a much less familiar form. Some of the other video game franchises featured include: World of Warcraft, God of War and the pictured combination of Medal of Honor and Call of Duty.
The episode airs in the US November 13th.

Thanks to Thomas for the heads up!
He looks like Tiara, Tails, Vector, Espio, and himself all in one!
Best fan character ever! XD
Wait, Knuckles knows martials arts, so he can karate chop!
Look at what the best fan character ever is doing!
IT’S EVEN BETTER
Who’s tiara? i don’t even..
MegaSonicKong? Is that you?
Weird.
ha, i remember the first one on the old christmas special years ago where Bart nicks a video game! back when The Simpsons was good….
i take it the medal of duty fanboy’s ultimate enemies are call of honor fanboys in the simpsons universe?
I wonder what Sonic is called in the Simpsons? XD
Simp-Sonyic the Hedgehog.
Call of Honor.
lol.
That looks a rather female version of Sonic ._.
Derp, Medal of Duty*
lol, i called call of honor in my previous post! 😛
He (she?) kind of looks more like a blue Pulseman with a ponytail.
I don’t think that’s a Ponytail… Looks like it’s soppose to be a ‘S’ logo for ‘Sonic’….
Wait, it’s not a ponytail?!?! How misleading! XD
At first I did think it was an early Tiara concept haha
There you go Iizuka, there’s your new modern Sonic design right there!
aha. That made me laugh more than it should have
I see the Big Super Happy Fun Fun game. I remember that level in The Simpsons Game about it!
Me too, dude. Loved that level.
Lovin’ the new Sonic design too. Totally badass ^^
Remember that “game engine” level, where characters like Mario, Sonic and Dig Dug were slaves on treadmills and hamster wheels? That was pretty cool too.
Does it have a ponytail, or is that an ‘S’ written on the display?
This is the 3rd time Sonic appear on The Simpsons.
1st The Christmas episode when Bart steals an game
2nd The “That 90’s Show” you will an billboard of Sonic proposal on Amy Rose
And now this, way to go Simpsons!!
Where is Sonic’s quills?
Hey.. If it isn’t much to ask, can some people check out my New Sprite Webcomic? It’s called Onto the Sprite World and will feature various Sonic Characters. Give me some feedback if you want.

No.
Omg Sonic a girl :O
… Ultraman Sonic dude combined with Knuckles, Tails, Espio, and a whole bunch of fucked up shit? Okay. xD
Two IPs that are way past their prime. Besides Sonic already appeared when Bart stole Bonestorm from the Try N Save.
and just on a side note, just finished Generations. Loved it and hated it at the same time. After 20 years its time I wash my hands of Sonic.
I’ll bet that Marge had TWO reasons why she bought the Golf game:
1. She might have read some reviews, including Comic Book Guy’s OWN personal review, regarding that it was all hype, and no originality. (Summing up to his signature “Worst, Video Game, Ever.”)
2. It was too popular that the game sold out, and she decided to buy that golf game, anyway, because Bonestorm is a game that had “Meanie-bo-beanies” in it. Thus it would’ve been rated M at the time, and Marge Simpson would probably make money, if she were featured as the ESRB Spokesparent. These days, I don’t watch Family Guy, because the plots are seldom repeated. It got me into watching My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic on Youtube, instead.
medal of duty lol
Sonica The Hedgehog? O.o
Woa! I’m so exited to see Sonic in sa Simpsons. To all u fanpop members, wall me wen u see this post, plz 😉
TOTALLY OFF TOPIC ALERT
Are we ever getting pics of the Sonic playground in Oakland?
LOL!How did homer get invited to…E4….sigh…

Awesome, the hedgehog’s back XD
The sooner The Simpsons dies off, the better.

Just take it! take it take it take it TAKE IT!
All the people who say ‘The Simpsons used to be good’ are jumping on the bandwagon, because the past two seasons have been the best since the very beginning, but everybody’s on the bandwagon so they won’t give them a try.
