The series began in 1991 with the release of Sonic the Hedgehog on the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis, which was responsible for turning Sega into a leading video game company during the 16-bit era.

I sure do hope people don't discuss the newer games too often. Retro Sonic > new friend "lol ur too slow" Sonic.

I like the older games better. I have all the classic ones. I should get them out and play them soon.

Because it's actually pretty good. Aside from the fact that 4kids mutilates every show they get the rights to.

Bah whatever. Playing Sonic the Hedgehog now. <3

Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood (2008)

All hail our Dread Father! All hail Sithis!

[Blastdown]

One of my favorite game series that I hope will make a comeback.
I had a Genesis when I was a child, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and Sonic and Knuckles were some of my first games. c:


The new voice actors are terrible, I prefer the old 4kids voice actors to these anime-known voice actors.

[Altered]

Sonic Heroes was pretty good, interesting levels and characters and whatnot.

[Man 2]

My sister-in-law gave us the Megacollection Plus for the Xbox. Damn, what fun games.
I still feel inferior because I've never played a Sonic game on the Genesis.

Sonic Heroes was pretty good, interesting levels and characters and whatnot.

My Sonic Heroes disc broke. :C

I have a lot of Sonic stuff, though.

[Blastdown]

I wish SEGA would take "Modern Sonic" back to Sonic Adventure.
The open-world feel was fun to explore, the different characters with different styled levels, and obviously the Chao Garden.

I enjoy the classic side-scrolling Sonic, however I feel 3D hasn't treated it very well (some might say Sonic Colors would be an exception).

[Kingdaro]

(some might say Sonic Colors would be an exception).

it is

I have it, I suck at it, but it's pretty good, like Sonic Unleashed without night stages, because the night stages ruined it.
