Yep, not bad for a franchise that's not had a decent console game for over a decade.

Well apart from those great handheld games.

I'm a megadrive fanboy - but I've always hated Sonic....

I always just felt like I was am observer when playing sonic 1 and 2 - as if the game was playing itself. Even though it pains me to say it - Super Mario Bros was far far better. :cry:

Or bring back Ristar.

I think Sonic needs to go back to being 2D. Wouldnt hurt them to release a PROPER Sonic game, i.e. one that stays true to the megadrive.

I actually liked Sonic Unleashed :oops: . Nowhere near the quality of the Megadrive games but it was a good fun Sonic game none the less. It did seem rushed at the end though, Adabat had a terrible framerate, Eggman Land was a nightmare to complete and the games real final boss was as unsatisfying as ever.
