I kinda agree, tall and lanky sonic just looks kind of weird to me. He did even back when I was a kid, I distinctly remember liking the comics' art a lot less when he started getting taller. And then there was that weird loving section where Knuckles has the same proportions as Dr. Manhattan minus the dong...

I have to disagree with a point Cybershell made in his Top 10 Sonics video, that the Sonic Boom cartoon is the only reason kids still know about your common or garden Sonic. I work in childcare and many kids are still all about Sonic. We have a PSP with the Mega Drive Collection and it's a rare day when at least one kid isn't playing it. One boy of about 5 I work with doesn't really say much unless you mention Sonic, at which point he will ramble on for hours if you let him. Makes levels out of wooden blocks, runs with his arms back and I think he knows all the lyrics to City Escape. I assume it's cos of parents in their late 20s with emulators or somesuch.

The downside to all this is that I'm subjected to the same 2 episode DVD of Sonic Underground about once a week or so.

I'm not gonna lie, I went "woah! :eyepop:" in real life when my little brother was running around going "I'm Sonic!" while I was babysitting them the other day. The boy in blue is still hip among kids, it seems.

The hold-to-run button was a dumbass idea, yes. Especially given that every controller on every console the game was released for has stick sensitivity controls (including the 3DS, yes!). Hell, include a walk toggle button if you really must.

Fun embarrassing fact about me: the first time I ever posted on an internet forum, it was on Sonic Fan Games HQ in like 1998 or whatever. I've actually talked to the Taxman and Stealth like 20 years ago but I doubt they'd remember me. I was a little kid trying to make garbage games in The Games Factory.

Among my first internet forums was The Mystical Forest Zone, I used to love that ol' InSonicnia comic back in the day. So you're not alone in that shame.

edit: Also, I used to make my own Sonic sprite comics back when I was a teenager and they were pretty drat good for being done in MS Paint :shepface:

Hello, world's only Shuffle apologist here. There's a button you can press when it's not your turn that shuffles your hand, and you should be mashing it whenever anyone else is choosing a card. I, uh, don't know if it actually helps against AI, but I do seem to remember them landing in bad places when taking from my hand. It's been years though, I could be wrong. One thing I'm not wrong on though, the spinning card roulette is absurdly easy if you just stop and watch it for a bit.

I don't have any counter-arguments for the rest of your points. It's all true. Shuffle is pretty bad, and for some reason I like getting good at certain bad games. At least some of the minigames were fun.

Hey, it's me, the world's SECOND only Sonic Shuffle apologist here. I had to use my Dreamcast for something after I played the only 2 games worth playin' on it! (Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2)

edit: Don't get me wrong! Sonic Shuffle is a buncha bullshit! But it's also a pretty fun Mario Party knockoff.

Does Sonic Generations even have any enemies that can harm you if you're boosting? They just get knocked right outta the way no matter what they are iirc. Enemies in the Sonic As A Race Car games are less about hurting you and more about being used as a way to meter the amount of boost you have left- you want to steer into them so that you can get more boost out of destroying them.
