I avoid Sonic because the fans put me off.

I don't care what they say, things were different in the 90s to what they are now and the Sonic series still had good points in the 00's that are worth remembering. =_=

I've viewed the Sonic fans as just as bad as DC comics fans from the 70s... That 30% who the writers are not catering for anymore who force their opinions to represent the entire fandom. For instance, the whole "Sonic doesn't need a storyline" is **** because Sonic always had a storyline, its just in the past there wasn't capabilities to merge it with game play directly. A side from a few coup-outs of the 00's, I was fine with the storyline creeping into the actual games, so long as it was well written it was fine.

Ditto I truly believe that 3D sonic is possible, harder but possible and that 2D sonic wasn't as always awesome as many make it out to be. That said... *ahem*... Sonic 2006 was a crappy game and I'm just not going to defend it. But 2006 doesn't represent the whole of the 00's thank goodness, just the worst of it. ¬_¬
