Really look closely at it. Try to run like that. That's right, run by lifting your leg perpendicular and sideways to your body (actually, quite a bit higher than that). If you haven't managed to break your legs and/or your hips, you still look ridiculous. The animation looks fantastic as a 2d sprite, and it's quite a clever 2d animation trick, but in anything higher (2.5/3d), it just *doesn't* work.

If it had, you would better believe smash brothers would have used it. They didn't, instead they used the super-peel out which due to the effects it uses, *can* be duplicated in 3d and looks awesome at the same time. I fully support/hope sega does something like that for Sonic 4, but really, don't expect the wheel.

After seeing the trailer better, the running only looks weird in the Sonic "outside" the trailer. In the Sonic in the Green Hill alike zone the running actually looks fine, I think.

Dude. The wheel animation is classic. O-o

and besides in lots of animation, cartoons and other things hes run like that.
Even Super peel out has been used
