Sonic the Hedgehog
Sonic Can Return To His Former Glory
Posted on 2009/07/22 by Darryl
Sonic the Hedgehog is one of the most venerable characters in the video games industry, but recently many believe the quality of his games has suffered.
Some have even called for Sega to discontinue the series, but many just wish things would return to how they were. Afterall, in the 16-bit era, Sonic was the king of his domain. Some believe that Sonic Team are taking a step in the right direction, including composer for the Sonic franchise, Bentley Jones
If they used Unleashed as a template for the next Sonic game, then we could definitely see Sonic returning to his former glory of the 90s.
It's unsure what Sonic Team will try to do next with the main Sonic franchise, but Sonic Unleashed and Sonic and the Black Knight indicate that they're definitely willing to try new things. While reception is generally split on the more modern Sonic games they have developed quite a following and if Sonic Team can manage to keep both sets of fans happy, then they could definitely hit the jackpot again.
