For me its gotta be Sonic Unleashed. I just adore the speed and reaction based gameplay of the daytime levels, and I get a kick out of the platforming and combat of the werehog even if its not the deepest. Along with that the music is the second coming and arguably the best in the series, plus the visuals are still stunning to this day.
I think I've only played two sonic games in my life! So I'd have to say Sonic Adventure 2 Battle !!! I used to spend sooo much time with my chao's

Please tell me I’m not the only one who played this?!

Same! For me it wins by nostalgia factor and by being the only sonic game I played properly lol
Considering this was the first one to go multiplatform, statistically speaking, you are probably not the only one who played Heroes
I want to pick up this call.
my first sonic game was sonic generations on the Xbox 360. its always been my favorite I love going back to it
Frontiers, believe it or not.
Maybe MySpace was all the friends we made along the way.
Nah I get it, its rough around the edges but the core is so fun to play I understand why its so many people’s favorite.
deff Sonic and the black knight, SA1 n SA2 and every single Sonic Advance game dat exists ✌️

My favorite is probably Unleashed, but I also really like Black Knight, and Secret Rings has been on my mind a lot lately. I feel like I have a much higher opinion of the two Storybook games than most lol
When I was younger, I remember saying that Rush was my favorite game (not just Sonic, like in general it was my favorite game ever).

I can see the vision for secret rings after playing reignited, im hoping they do something similar to black knight.
While I'll begrudgingly admit Secret Rings kind of needed the overhaul, if only because so many people had trouble with it (and people just primarily play on PC now), I genuinely do not believe anything that drastic is needed for Black Knight, I could almost swear people only act like Black Knight is really bad because youtubers said so 16 years ago (the controls for Black Knight are almost directly comparable to any other Wii game involving a sword, I'd argue it's even less demanding than Skyward Sword or No More Heroes)
I'm probably just contrarian and purist, but while I guess I see the necessity in just having the game on PC (and, by extension, making it playable without motion controls), I can't see myself playing a potential fanmade PC version of Black Knight if it changes as much as Reignition did. (Project Reforged is already in the works, but I notice I don't tend to follow fan projects while they're in the oven lol, I didn't even know Reignition was even a thing until the day it came out)
On that note, I'm really hoping the fanmade third Storybook game understands why people like me liked the first two from a gameplay perspective, after watching some videos from people about Reignition, I'm realizing that my view of the game is really uncommon, probably my worst fear for that is the Dragon's Path team just making a boost game because people are unironically too stupid to play what's essentially an on-rails arcade game they want to avoid making youtubers upset.

That’s completely fair, I honestly haven’t played through either game completely, just getting through some levels in each when I was a kid and now reignited. Black Knight definitely doesn’t need any control fixes as it was already using the nunchuck, but I do think some proper mapping of the sword to maybe the right control stick could be beneficial(something like mgrr). I definitely think people are adverse to the idea of an “on rails” sonic game just because for many their idea of sonic is going fast and breaking the level and being on rails is kinda opposite of that. I do think secret rings needed a drastic change in controls only because of how unreliable the early wiimote was and some of the upgrades kinda being necessary to make the game more tolerable to play in that set up. But I have also seen some crazy shit done with the new additions that really break the game, so I understand your reservations about adding a lot of big changes like that. Hopefully if reforged does add some big changes they are toggle able. As for dragons path, yea I have no idea what those fellas are up to, but I did like the main theme they released.
ialways liked how Sonic heroes looked cant play it to far tho pass the 4th word.
For a good all in one Sonic game Sonic Generations.
If picking something more- specific. Sonic Adventure. The last real sticking to the roots 3D Sonic gsme. Before boosting and team play and shadows epsiode.

My favorite is Sonic Adventure 2! 💙 I've spent countless hours playing it in my lifetime. It's probably my most replayed game ever. (I used to practically live in the Chao Garden as a child. lol 😆)
"The people and the friends that we have lost, or the dreams that have faded... Never forget them."
Despite being a huge fan as a kid, I never got to really play the games except Sonic Raiders: Zero Gravity! It was the only Sonic game I owned (I thought it was soooo cool I mean, overboard races?! how can this NOT be cool?!) I was so bad at it tho and idk if it still holds up today but I remember having a lot of fun playing it !!
(Does Mario and Sonic Olympics games technically count as spin offs XD? I swear I played the London and 3DS ones more than any mainline Sonic games, I loved them so much they made my entire childhood ^^)
Bullets and Carnage ♡
I absolutely loved the Mario and Sonic games, I played the hell out of london on the wii, but my favorite had to be the ds version of Winter. God I played the adventure mode so much it was a blast with an underrated soundtrack. Never got a chance to play zero gravity but it always looked cool as hell whenever I saw it, especially the intro. That thing went platinum on sonic amv’s in 2010.
SA2 is up there, but I really enjoyed Sonic Forces, as controversial as that can be :P
Being completely honest, I hate that game with a burning passion, but thats mostly due to being really excited for it before release and then being horribly let down. If I may ask what aspects of it do you enjoy to make it a favorite?
@Orum The letdown makes total sense. I really enjoy the character creation aspect and I find a lot of the levels to be really fun.
