I don't want to see any franchise die just revamped. Something NFS really really needs.

I would remove Sonic from the list, it has potential.

Add Tomb Raider, all of that series's fans have grown up and got girlfriends to perve on instead of Lara

Both Sonic Rush games are great. Adventure may have the unnecessary boat travelling, yep but it makes up for it with more levels and the mission mode. The first Rush game was a little bit short on content. yes, but it had new features that weren't as tedious as ones Adventure added

SRA > SR

Sonic Chronicles should have never been released.

That and the fact that SRA released a stupid new character Marine >_>

THERES ENOUGH SONIC CHARACTERS ALREADY

Sega, please stop before you create another Big.

"Other than the recent role-playing game Sonic Chronicles, there hasn't been a truly fun Sonic game in about a decade" Personally I liked Sonic Heroes and Sonic Unleashed, and hated Sonic Chronicles... =P

That guy needs a slap in the fuckin' face for not mentioning Sonic Rush. I thought Sonic Rush Adventure sucked with its ridiculous mini-game traveling, but the original is quite good.

Fine I'll mention it

I got and beat all the secret stuff in both, and SR > SRA > SC

K I mentioned it =/

Hahah, I was talking about the original author, not you. :D

Rol, I hear what you're saying about SRA... It's just that the traveling bits were just so un-Sonic that it was hard to ignore them. The rest of the game was just more Sonic Rush, which is a good thing.

Every time I had to go someplace and suffered through one of those inane jet-boating mini-games, I disliked the game a little more. By the end, I found it painful to even play the bloody thing.

That's Sega's main problem with Sonic games, that they always think that they have to add some gimmicky gameplay and can't rely on Sonic stages alone. Sonic Unleashed is the latest victim. Could have been an excellent game, but the Werehog dragged it down.

No kidding. Take Secret Rings... There were parts of the game that showed real potential to harness 3D in a Sonic game. The speed, the rush, it was all back... and then they had to bugger the controls when you did have to 3D platform and they added what is possibly the stupidest story in the history of videogaming.

Just give us Sonic, make him fast, and have us square off against Robotnik. We don't need Blaze, Knuckles, or any of those other peripheral losers (though Tails can stay) and we don't need some elaborate fucking story. SEGA had a great formula on the Genesis and it's high time they went back to that idea with the series.

Keep It Simple, Stupid.

Hey, watch what you say about Knuckles :P he was actually decent, and he appeared in some of the Mega Drive (Genesis) games, so he can stay.

Sonic Tails and Knuckles are cool, anyone who first appeared on the Saturn, Dreamcast or any non Sega platform can go jump off a bridge
