Message: [QUOTE="RageBurner, post: 7896, member: 5434"] Having grown up as a Sega kid, Sonic has been an integral part of my gaming journey, both in 8 and 16 bit forms. Sonic 1 came as a pack-in, and Sonic 2 and 3 were no brainers. I used to rent Sonic CD on occasion, but I never "got it" in the sense it was still convoluted for my little kid brain to understand the nuances of. Now, even though I have more brain mass, I have to say I still don't like it much. The Saturn was something else. I had it, loved it, but it not having a proper Sonic was terrible; I can't help but feel this helped bury the console even more under the Playstation 1's heel. I never had a Dreamcast so my contact with 3D Sonic would only come much later, courtesy of emulation and... yeah, sorry, SA1 and 2 are a no from me. Heroes was decent, but it's somewhat telling when I personally had more fun with Sonic Riders - Zero Gravity than it. Generations was... all right. I liked it, but also felt it was a massive waste of potential. I expected more and more zones to be lovingly recreated via DLC, both in classic and modern form, but shame on my inner child for daring to believe Sega cares. I'm not sure how far I'm even allowed to go with this little memoir, but suffice to say that, by my reckoning, anything past that that isn't Mania is middling at best (and even regarding Mania I have serious reservations).
