What made you a sonic fan?

TheGameNinja · December 10, 2012, 05:58:57 PM

Got a Genesis for Christmas. It came with Sonic 2. That's about it.

The Adventures of Sonic the hedgehog was pretty much my favorite tv show when it came out o-o
Though I didn't seriously get into it until after I played Sonic adventure 2 battle.

Oh.

Same answer as last time. I don't remember. I found a Genesis case for Sonic the Hedgehog in my attic but I don't recall ever playing it as a kid. If I had to guess I'd say either AoStH or the Sonic OVA.

I kind of remember playing 3D Blast as a kid but I'm not sure how well I can trust that memory.

Well, I remember getting Sonic Mega Collection on Gamecube for Christmas. I thought it was amazing, so I kept buying any Gamecube Sonic games. Also, Sonic X was awesome.

PhantomTrevo · December 20, 2012, 12:17:47 PM

I'd have to say that Sonic Heroes got me into it, along with Sonic Adventure 2 Battle. The Chaos you can raise in that game are cute. too bad I lost my memory card, which wiped out all of my chao from that memory card.

Elija2 · December 21, 2012, 10:16:17 AM

I played a Sonic game and I liked it.

SirnaqTheEchidna · December 22, 2012, 05:39:26 PM

I remember getting a dreamcast. It was like a dream come true. We had Sonic Adventure and I would sit there all day and play, even though I barely made progress. The music sticks with me to this day

SuperSonic23 · December 22, 2012, 06:23:34 PM

I watched Sonic X when I was little. Most of my friends had Sonic Advance, too. It grew bigger when I bought Heroes for PC in the 5th grade. I got Unleashed for the Wii and Xbox, and that got me sailing.

eastport · December 25, 2012, 03:23:49 AM

Been playing it since I was three or four. I can't really remember how my addiction got started, but I've loved the classics for as long as I can remember.

Megaman123 · December 25, 2012, 04:17:28 PM

Sonic made me LOVE him.

Darth.Flipyap · January 12, 2013, 06:05:16 PM

I played my dads copy of Sonic 3 when I was little

Dax7 · January 13, 2013, 03:48:56 AM

The gameplay from Adventure series made me into one.

HoNk · January 23, 2013, 04:57:31 AM

After all the Pre-K games, Sonic the Hedgehog 2 was my first REAL game.
I got it and I played it over, and over.
I've been a strong Sonic fan since.

Shilz · February 16, 2013, 07:36:03 AM

Sonic Adventure for DC. I have no idea if it was becuase it was like SM64, Or it was becuase I heard the sonic x theme when i was little(i also can hear the guy singing "kirby", as he was my favorite before sonic.) All i know is:
FUCKING BEST 2 YEARS OF MY LIFE 2006-2008. Then the jacks for the dreamcast got messed up.
Spent 2 years with no Sonic Adventure.
2010: bought SADX. (for my Wii) And Pirated SADX for PC.

Grell Desu · February 16, 2013, 07:45:16 AM

This website, actually. I wasn't really much of a Sonic lover when I first joined. I just liked to play the games a little bit. Enough to ship the characters and take an interest in cosplaying a few one day. But coming on here about three or so years ago and watching everyone on the chat... the discussions they all had about everything. Well. It got me curious.

So, I sat down and did more than just breeze through the games. I played them all over again, and I paid attention to everything... and I fell in love with the Sonic series. Granted, LoZ is still the best thing ever for me, but Sonic does hold a place in my heart. I made new friends through those games and this site. c:

DarkOverlordSJ · February 16, 2013, 07:10:09 PM

Watched Sonic X with Shadow in that episode. He got me hooked onto sonic. Without him i would be a amy fan which then i would have hated sonic. Got a shirt with him on it. To this day he is still my favorite Sonic Character.

billyhatcher312 · February 17, 2013, 05:44:55 PM

when i first played sonic advance on GBA i loved the gameplay it was amazing but a little hard to beat

ScorchinBuggy25 · March 29, 2014, 04:23:16 PM

5 or 6 years back, I remember my family and I visiting our cousins for a cook-out. My cousin owned a copy of Sonic Mega Collection Plus for the Xbox, so I popped in the console and gave it a go. This was the first time I've ever played a Sonic game, and I thought to myself, "This is it. This is true happiness :')" On my birthday I asked for a copy of the game I played at my cousin's house and enjoyed every second of it. My grandmother also got me Sonic Unleashed for PS2 at the same time, so I played both and compared the gameplay to each other. The rest is history

starwalker · June 12, 2014, 09:14:29 AM

Sonic the Hedgehog (not 2006)

JustAnotherGamer · July 29, 2014, 02:22:40 PM

What made me a Sonic fan? Well, I regret nothing, but to be honest...

Sonic '06

I troll you not, this is how I became a fan of Sonic. I had friends who I played Sonic Adventure with, and years later I saw this sitting on the Gamestop shelf and I was like, "Well, if this is anything like Sonic Adventure, It must be fun." I bought that copy of Sonic '06 and played that buggy load-fest till I beat that game. Once again, a couple years later, I got curious and Google'd up sonic games. I wasn't expecting 06' to be declared, "Liek the wurst sanic gaem evrr." Sadly, that is the only 3D sonic game I own to date, so I had nothing to compare it to personally. But hence, I decided to purchase on Steam, the ultimate Sonic the Hedgehog title: Sonic 3 and Knuckles. After playing through that monster I can definately call myself a Sonic fan. Even if I didn't scrape every penny off my shoes to buy new games and consoles. If I had an Xbox controller, I would have bought Sonic Generations by now. I learned my lesson on how poorly some PC ports handle control wise when I played Dark Souls. Beat that game with a keyboard and mouse and I will respect you as the God of All Videogames. But yes, 6 years of PC gaming and I don't have a controller. It's embarrassing.

Toad5x · October 26, 2014, 03:52:32 PM

I first started with the GBA remake of sonic 1

MasterJ · August 19, 2015, 06:33:47 PM

Played Sonic unleashed in first grade and then love playing it.

RazoRTR · February 16, 2016, 04:59:32 AM

Watching Sonic cartoons combined with Sonic Adventure DX being the first commercial PC game I've ever played.

ShadowCM · February 27, 2016, 02:13:03 PM

My first personal experience with the Sonic franchise came from the fact that the Nintendo Gamecube was my first home console, and Sonic Mega Collection the first game I owned, so I ended up playing it a lot over time, and gradually over the subsequent years getting all the available Sonic games for the console, and most on the Wii when that came about some years ago. While in more recent years many people have pushed me out of the "diehard fanboy" mentality, I still can sit down and enjoy these games I played as a kid with no problem.

In short, it was my first game.

SonicMobius01 · March 06, 2016, 10:41:17 AM

I grew up with Sonic. Been playing these games since I was 7 years old. 30 now

The speed of it.

Everything's super quick. It's a reflex test.

Niko · September 05, 2016, 10:50:17 PM

Having his games as my first 2 ever. Replaying them and his other games just give me such a huge feeling of nostalgia

AzraelGaming · October 28, 2016, 05:38:45 AM

the sonic x cartoon got me into sonic

HighFlyingFox · November 02, 2016, 08:04:08 AM

Once I played Sonic Adventure and Adventure 2 for the DC, there was no going back for me.
