User blog comment:FlashStrike/Why are you a Sonic fan?/@comment-4772866-20120416015414

Growing up with my older brother and having to go with him to his friend's house after school while my parents worked, I was bound to become a gamer. Sonic Heroes was the first one I played. While I didn't like it at first, as I started to play more and more I realized that Sonic was awesome. I started playing the Adventures, and played the Advance series on my Gameboy. I started to get intrested in Pokemon more, so I stopped playing for a while. I regained intrest when I bought Generations, and now I'm back into the Sonic fanbase! :D

Sonic X was my favorite, because they went over the story of Adventure 1 and 2 (and they had my precious Shadow-kun in it :3), but added their own twist to it when they added their own story. The old ones were good, but I just prefer the newer one. Probably because I like Modern Sonic better.

I haven't read any of the comics, but I'm starting to tomorrow (when my friend is going to give them all to me, she collects them :DDD).

The characters are the reason I like it so much. They're colorful and they're animals and they're just pure awesome. (and plus they're easier to draw than humans xD)
