Sorry for the belatedness of my comment, but concerning Sonic 225...

It's between Adventure and Unleashed, for me. Going all SPINDASH SPINDASH SPINDASH in Adventure was great fun, as was BOOST BOOST BOOST QUICK TIME EVENT JUMP SIDESTEP in Unleashed. Yeah, there was less platforming, but Unleashed's stages were still thrilling. I kinda find it hard to compare Unleashed and Adventure. I find the styles used too different to compare properly. Adventure 2's stages were good too, but I found them a bit too short and a little...generic. Blah. Something like that.

Indeedy, we did.

I'm quite fond of Eggman's blue. They seem to contrast every single aspect of his character, which I like. Brings out the human side of him.

I have a preference for Eggman, but I refer to Robotniks as Robotniks and Eggmans as Eggmans. I have to admit I rage a little when I see people harshly criticising the name 'Eggman' because it suddenly means he can't be taken seriously. Robotnik is totally sinister, right? Robot+nik. Do you know what that makes me think of? The name Nick, which in turn leads me to think of Phoenix Wright, causing my mind to settle onto Detective Gumshoe who isn't intimidating at all. So there, case and point, 'Robotnik' is no more goofy and unintimidating than 'Eggman'. See? I can argue that one name is lesser based on a completely arbitrary set of rules, too. ¬¬ ...Not saying anyone here does that. It just burns my poffins grinds my gears in general.

Yes.

Hm. I didn't think speed would sound quite so mediocre.

Most popular? Well, that would be Eggman, of course. I mean, I don't keep up with the details of these comics and vidya games(I scarcely remember who the player character was, hohoho!), but there's no-one off the top of my head who could compete with Eggman's unprecedented popularity. Right after the good old 'botnik would come some combination of them fuzzy creatures that sometimes show up, yappin' their little voices, I don't know what order. They're all pretty samey to me.

...It's genius!

I loved Project Chaos, personally. I also don't get all the complaints of some of the songs sounding nothing like the original. Event the Death Egg remix is full of elements from the actual song, if you listen to it properly. Same goes for Icecap and Lava Reef(the piano mixes, anyway), the latter of which I thought to be really obvious anyway. I feel some people may be confusing the word 'remix' with 'remake', even if a few in the album do deviate a little much.

Even as an avid supporter of evil, I can't help but say that Robotnik was too lazy for my tastes, as well. It just...got to me in certain episodes, where he's standing beside the control panel, barking at Snively to push buttons for him. At least we know how this Robotnik got fat.

I dunno, I saw some pretty personal attacks dotted around The-Master-Board's long post(or maybe that was just me). Man, why do all internet arguments always degrade into that sort of thing? ¬¬
