I'm making this official, for anyone who cares...

I'm giving up on the Sonic Fan base. I'm renouncing my fandom to Sonic. I'll still pay the games, but I'm not paying attention to the fanbase anymore. It's all little kids now that say new gen Sonic "is the best thing ever!". To that I say bull*squee!*. The best New Gen Sonic games of the early 2000's are Sonic Adventure and Adventure 2. Anything beyond that has been relatively mediocre at best. Sonic 06 was where it went down hill and just plummeted after that point. If I wanna be a fan of even a small part of the Sonic series, it would be the old Genesis games of Sonic that I grew up with. Those were the golden age of Sonic before they sold out to Nintendo.

I know some people are going to have opinions about the old games, saying that they are not as good as older generations play them off as. But back when the Genesis was a big thing, those Sonic games were amazing. There was nothing like them. Sonic's major competition was Mario and everything was grand. Sure there were the Sega vs Nintendo wars, but those were simpler times.

In anycase, this is my opinion on the matter. I just wanted to get this off my chest since it has been kinda bothering me. Sorry if I got all 'back in my day', but I guess my 90's are showing. God, do I feel old.
