Sonic the Hedgehog

I know Sonic has had his share of bad games, but I want to know everyone's opinion on his status at the moment.
I'd say I have yet to play a Sonic game I disliked, besides Sonic Labyrinth on the Game Gear. Unleashed was a masterpiece, Colors was a comeback, and Generations was a flashback filled to the top with so much nostalgia! I skipped over 06' because I lacked an HD system at the time.

Anyway, what's your favorites from the Sonic series?

Game: Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and Knuckles
Show: Sonic SATAM
Theme: Endless Possibilities
Character: Sonic the Hedgehog
Zone/ Act: Tie between Lava Reef Zone and Starlight Carnival Zone
Boss: Biolizard: Prototype of the Ultimate Lifeform
Villain: Metal Sonic

Well ok then.

My favorites:

Favorite Game: Sonic CD
Favorite Show: SATAM
Favorite Character: Knuckles
Favorite Zone: Flying Battery Zone
Favorite Villain: Metal Sonic

I'm on OLD SCHOOL fan of Sonic the Hedgehog. I kind of got distanced by his fan base after the 90s.


Game: Sonic Spinball (seriously)
Show: The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog
Theme: Live and Learn
Character: Sonic the Hedgehog
Zone/ Act: Chemical Zone
Boss: Biolizard: Dr. Robotnick
Villain: Dr. Robotnick

I can understand why you're an Old School fan. I've enjoyed all of his games, mainly the classic games for their gameplay, amount of content, and soundtrack. I like the new ones for their soundtracks as well, and just that feel you get when you boost through a level at top speed.
