Edit: It's Jun Senoue! All hail!

If you have been paying attention to the SOS website, you might have noticed that last week Takashi Iizuka & Yujia Naka were announced to appear at the event.

Well..... if you go to the guest section of the website. You'll notice that they both now have their place on the guest list.


Buuuuutttt....

If you look further down the page you'll spot the following.



?????????? ??????????
(INTERNATIONAL PERSON OF MYSTERY)

Who was that masked man… or woman?

I don’t know, we’re not psychic! Needless to say though it is our next super-secret guest who will be revealed here on 14/06/11. Stay tuned!

So somebody else is on the list, somebody big is coming to SOS and they've not been announced yet.

Who could it be? Find out tomorrow.

Oh yeah... theres also this.



A black hedgehog... Shadow is confirmed for SOS!

I still think it's Uncle Chuck. Just sayin'

[Name's Ash. Housewares]

I'm going with Aaron Webber for the mystery. International being that he deals with Sonic fans all over the world.

The hedgehog silhouette? A real pigmy hedgehog that you can handle. If I get them both right, can I have two queue jumper tickets for SoS?

[Cola]

Austin Powers! No? No one's seen that movie? Well darn.

Sonic confirmed for SOS 2011. I have no idea who that other guy is, though.

[Kjeldo]

If you take a look in the page source, you can see this:

Mystery Guest 4: One person. So no, its not Crush 40.
Sonic silhouette: Figure it out for yourself Columbo... Pfft.

FEATURED STAGE SHOWCASE ACTS
Give Us A Z...
No bears please, we're British
Girl (Shadowed)

FEATURED FANARTISTS
Dream on, dreamer.

My guess on the Sonic silhouette: Mr CHECK OUT THE CONSOLES!

[JayZeach]

Yeah....You can also just hover your mouse over the images to get the descriptions, rather than ripping the source code

[Kjeldo]

Yup true, but I didn't wanted to type all the quotes over so I just ripped them from the page source instead out of pure laziness.
Also, the Sonic silhouette image is called mysterymanhog.jpg unlike all the others, just pointing out...

[JayZeach]

So this is what it's come down to then? haha

People are that hyped for SoS they've started ripping into source codes and image tags to try and see what's coming?

Oh my.

Haha basically - Hey, when I said I couldn't wait much longer I was serious

[Hogfather]

Girl (Shadowed)

I wonder if this is that girl who made that awesome Shadow fan song? The one whose dad is the big record producer?

[iVYRAVE]

What shadow fan song? The only one's is him bringing sexy back and that Japanese one with him break-dancing

I bet it's Silver

[Gavvie]

Well this thread was more amusing than I thought it'd be XD

Looking forward to finding out who the next guest is.

[Siriku]

Jaleel White plz.

[eXtaticus]

It is now the 14th.

We still don't know who he is.

*ahem*

[ArchangelUK]

Last time I checked the 14th like all days lasted 24 hours.

Reveal at 18:00.

[Tobbii]

So wait, in 3 minutes?

*Tobbii remembers that he's swedish*

So wait, in 63 minutes?

[ArchangelUK]

Your basic mathematics serves you well.

[iVYRAVE]

22 minutes!

Special Guest #8: Jun Senoue
Posted on June 14, 2011 by Dreadknux

Music is a big part of the Sonic franchise, and the Summer of Sonic has played host to several key artists and composers in the past. This year’s convention will be no different, and for Sonic’s 20th we’ll be in the presence of a popular musician who will be making his second appearance at the convention. Not just because we wanted him back (which we did), or that you wanted him back (which you did) but that he really, REALLY wanted to come back and see you all again.

We welcome back the legendary Jun Senoue, music director for many of Sonic Team’s games and the composer for a range of unforgettable adventures such as Sonic 3 & Knuckles, Sonic Adventure, Sonic Adventure 2, Sonic Heroes and Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 1. This year, Senoue-san is behind the incredible score to the 20th Anniversary title, Sonic Generations and he has been kind enough to take time out of his insanely busy schedule to enjoy the Summer of Sonic event with fans of his work.

Though not performing this year, Senoue-san will be present to meet with fans throughout the day, making for an electrifying and nostalgic event for fans of all ages. He’ll also be part of a special as yet to be announced item also involving Iizuka-san and Naka-san. Stay tuned for more details on that.

If you hadn’t gathered before you’re really being spoiled this year for people to see.

- Svend & Kevin-

That bit made me smile
