Sonic Is Now An Adult

,


Sonic, Sega's long-time mascot, turned 18 today. Happy Birthday, blue hedgehog!

The spiky, blue guy is no longer a kid and a legal adult in most parts of the world (although he can't go around 'livin' la vida loca' in Vegas just yet). Let's hope that with adulthood, good games come too. Sega, we NEED a GOOD Sonic game... please... PLEASE! (And no, Sonic Unleashed 2 is NOT what we have in mind...)

Oh, and apparently Sega Europe is giving away free Sonic stuff via Twitter and Facebook and other social networks!

Sonic on the DS was fun. Sonic needs more gameplay like that.

Just a few days off from my own 18th (This saturday).

The most recent Sonic game I've played was the Secret Rings one, and I hated it. But I still absolutely love the old games, and Sonic Adventure 2 is always awesome.

Let's hope that after this landmark, they'll return to Sonic's roots.

I would have gotten Sonic for my 10th Birthday, but my parents decided Mario and Nintendo were a better-suited gift (thankyou).

10 + 18 = 28 wink (Just turned 28 on the 8th p) Although my parents insist I act like a 10-year-old; my friends say I'm more like 7, my boss says I'm 17.

Regarding age...I am 24.But I remember playing Sonic 1 in 1991 when it first came out at my Grandma's house. Man... good times!
