Do you have any real reasons other than he is old?

nope

If done right, Sonic can go right back up the charts, just like he did at the start, along with his blast processing power.

So basically Halo and CoD and anything with blood and guns is cool, old and colorful is gay? Good for you bro. 😐

Halo 3 is an example of a rushed, over hyped game that fails in almost every way. Sonic is a legend and provides great game-play (2D versions) with great characters, colorful backdrops and glamorous graphics and scenery.

sorry mate

or bad langauge. He was famouse back then now his popularaty has gone down becouse there are better games then sonic

Um...have you played any old games from the early 90s? Because, yeah, there was violence in games then. Does the name "Mortal Kombat", the entire reason the ESRB even exists, mean anything?

Sonic is not outdated. I have Sonic downloaded off Live Arcade on my 360. It's still awesome. They haven't made any decent Sonic games recently, but it doesn't stop Sonic from being one of the most popular game characters ever created.

Games don't need violence, shooting, and swearing to be good.

They just need good gameplay, good controls and to look nice. 🙂

The Rush series for DS are very good, they keep the traditions of the old sonic games but they mix it with modern 3D aspects, they keep a good balance, worthy successors to the Genesis era.

Don't bother, Dark, I've been on her to try Rush for ages. 😛

You have a DS yes? Then go pick up Sonic Rush and/or Sonic Rush Adventure! Sure it's not an RPG but the games are fun and when Sonic Chronicles comes out...it's an RPG hint, hint.

GET IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have too many partially-played games already and right now can't afford to buy any more. So it's not happening any time soon 😛

Then find someone (smaller, weaker, and maybe white) who is playing Sonic Rush and mug him/her.

I think Mario fails because it tries to hard to re-invent itself with each new game. either that, or it doesnt try hard enough. 3D hasnt been kind to Sonic. I can think of only one sonic game that actually did an ok job in transferring the Sonic Philosophy to the 3D world. The first Sonic game for Gamecube. Sonic gameplay always feels broken and counter intuitive. I think Sonic could flourish in todays gaming. If a development team could ever produce a seamless and engaging game. I think we would see more than just the fanboys buying the games.
