Favorite Moments:
The end of Sonic Adventure 2, when the two stories twisted together and everyone was forced to ally
Getting all the Hyper Emeralds as Knuckles in Sonic 3 and Knuckles and unlocking the unstoppable power of Hyper Knuckles
When Team Rose and Team Chaotix ran into each other in Sonic Heroes. The contrived way they got them to come to blows was downright hilarious, twisting around from a bad moment and becoming a good moment
The introduction of Knuckles, Sonic 3.
The race against Metal Sonic, Sonic CD

Least Favorite:
The furry-tastic moments of Sonic 2006.
The halfway point of Sonic Chronicles when it went from an engaging Sonic RPG to a random space opera. Always and forever will i use that moment to prove to people that BioWare is not infallible when it comes to story
That idiotic tutorial you had to go through at the start of Team Rose's story in Sonic Heroes
Everything involving Light Gaia/Chip
The fact that they seem to have forgotten about Knuckles' existence since after Sonic 2006 (except for Black Knight and Chronicles)



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

I am in no condition of voting for all of that, simply because I have only played Genesis games and the Unleashed for Wii. I just wanted to say that I have the fondest memories of Sonic & Knucles. I liked it above all the others.

Sonic & Knuckles appears to be winning in the 'Best 2D game' category, and methinks Sonic Adventure 2 is leading the 'Best 3D game' category.

All is as it should be. Where were all the SA2 fanboys during this? >:-I
