Let's just say my job unfortunately takes me into the darkest cesspools of the internet.

One cannot begin to fathom the kind of sick $#!+ the intarwebs hold.

Are you kidding? Sonic Adventure 2 is the "only good Sonic 3D game"? Did you ever play the first one?

I loved sonic on the Genesis. Fast paced and challenging. Then they started having a story beyond "The world is in danger, go right really fast."

Yeah, then it became 'The world is in danger, pick up crap, MAYBE go right really fast.'

I don't even know where to begin, so I won't.

Well, if you don't mind, I think I will.

I remember such a time where a question such as the theme of this thread would have probably never existed. That's just how high the level of popularity was for Sonic. Man, it's hard to believe the 16-bit era was THAT long ago, though. As for myself, I want to be a Sonic fan still, but I'm not that willing to accept the majority of what the series is about right now. With the exception of a game here or there (lately, the Sonic Rush series), it's hard for to have much to be happen about concerning Sonic.

While it doesn't seem to be all that popular these days, I thought with Sonic Heroes, Sega was finally heading in the right direction with its 3D games. Then, enter Shadow The Hedgehog. I can't say I've looked forward to a 3D game since. I wish Sega would take a cue from Capcom and give Sonic the throwback game that Mega Man 9 was able to do for its blue clad hero. If nothing else, maybe Sonic Team can still prove that it actually knows how to put a great Sonic game together, and I think that may also help with the 3D games.

But yeah... longer rant short, I really do wish that I could trust Sonic games these days, but Sega insists on making me cringe with almost every new Sonic game instead.

Oh well, I still have Sonic Mega Collection whenever I need a retro fix.

Does it matter that Shadow the Hedgehog was the first "Sonic" game released after Sega was bought by Sammy? Yeah. Its called Focus Group Video Games. Sega died in 2005.

Shadow uses guns and rides motorcycles.

Let's not pretend the series went to sh*t with Shadow. It went to sh*t long before that, when it started taking itself seriously and added obnoxious stories and layers of baditude. Shadow was just the inevitable culmination of that. Now we just wait for Were-Shadow.

Yeah, the series deteriorated after Sonic 3D was released.

Sonic 1, 2 and 3 were great(never played Sonic CD or Sonic Adventure), the rest... meh.

Big fan of Sonic since i was 11 in 1992 when i got the Genesis and loved the cartoon since i was 12.

~~Leo656~~ · 06-28-2009, 02:20 PM

Big Sonic fan, but more the shows and comics these days. Haven't played any of his new games since Sonic Heroes; I heard the Advance games were ok, but I'unno.

They were so-so. I think I liked them more than the 3D games just because they felt a bit more old school.

~~Leo656~~ · 06-28-2009, 02:29 PM

I've heard a lotta that, yeah.

I liked SA and Heroes for trying some new ideas, but execution coulda been better by far.

*Brodie* · 06-28-2009, 02:32 PM

the Sonic levels in Unleashed are fantastic.....the Werehog stuff is....uh...well....yeah.

~~Leo656~~ · 06-28-2009, 02:41 PM

It looked pretty weird. Definitely seems like they're just throwing stuff out there.

Sonic needs a strong caretaker the way Mario and Zelda have had Miyamoto, MGS had Kojima, etc. Nobody cares enough by now for that to happen, but if it'd always been that way we might've been spared some of the lesser games.

*XERO* · 06-28-2009, 03:07 PM

I still gotta give Sonic a chance to get back on track. They just need the proper motivation to make a awesome game.

BTW... did anybody ever play Sonic and the Black Knight? Nobody ever talks about that game, and I can probably guess why not.

Yeah, I remember reading about it, and then... hm.

Probably a sign about its quality that it's never mentioned, eh?
