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.
I enjoy Sonic for casual gaming. Nothing amasing.
