This is what gets me most about each side of the Sonic Fanbase.
You got the Retro fans that want nothing more then a complete remake of Sonic 1, and you know if that happened, they'd find something to whine about. Most of the time they all think Sonic 3 was the best game EVA (Even though, I think compared to Sonic CD it was crap, music, level, and gameplaywise)
And you have the modern fans that just want running forward as fast as you can. Oh no, we don't want Platforming in this Platformer we just want to run as fast as we can in a straight line.
As well as this, the Retro fans hate Sonic's new design, being sleek, older looking, and the green eyes. The Modern fans don't like Sonic's old, stubby fat boy design.
Hang on. They're both Sonic. How can you be a Sonic fan if you hate one of them? It isn't possible.

But in that Sonic the Hedgehog movie (I don't know if it has different name/s) it was Classical (at least I guess so...) but still acted possibly the best way I've ever seen Sonic do.
(Okay well I'm not good at explaining XD)
Im trying to tell EVERYONE this and all they keep saying is "I was a Sonic fan before you were born. I can say what I want"
Um, excuse me ? You dont have the right to call yourself a Sonic fan or even USED to be if you wanna hate on him for his brand new BETTER games -_- People are such idiots.
And then I got older and loved Classic Sonic, too. I've been pretty much loyal, through the ups and downs of the franchise, since then, and the one thing that keeps me clinging to it is the fact that one thing never changes about him, though voice actors and appearances and gameplay and other characters come and go—no matter what he's in, Comics or video games, retro or modern, Sonic's personality and character really doesn't change. I don't think it ever did. He's always been the Chili-dog loving, friendly, heart-of-gold hero speedster with a smart mouth and a cocky attitude.
