Talk:Sonic the Hedgehog series

Actually Sonic Rush, and Rivals are canon because of Blaze and Silver appearing in the main series games. David Bear (talk) 02:36, April 27, 2013 (UTC)

Locked?
Is this page locked? Because anyone could just edit this page and put false information about the series. 16:50, May 31, 2013 (UTC)

Just like how anyone could edit any page and put false information.  Myself  123  16:53, May 31, 2013 (UTC)

Alright, then. :/ 17:00, May 31, 2013 (UTC)

An idea to make the series better. kick all the characters till there is only Sonic and eggman, and return to the story of a good guy trying to trump the bad guy. In 3d.

Planetary Problems Saga page?
I think I would like to propose that we make a saga page for each era in the sonic series, starting with the Planetary Problems saga, cause there is so much that we hardly have any Idea how to keep track of the whole timeline. Justin Holland (talk) 22:18, August 7, 2013 (UTC)


 * The problem is that these are just fan terms, not official. It's more or less acceptable as a heading on a page, but not as the title of a page. -- Supermorff (talk) 19:37, August 8, 2013 (UTC)

Amy
Are we sure that Sonic CD happened AFTER Sonic R? Considering CD is the first time Sonic and Amy meet, I can't see how this is possible. Plus, it's claimed she fell in love with Sonic after he rescued her. Other than CD, the pre-Adventure games she appeared in are R, the Fighters and the Drift games - none of which she needed to be rescued in. Therefore, this most likely happened in CD.

 * I think Sonic Drift,Sonic the fighters and Sonic R was before.But I thought they hadn't met in those games.Then they met in Sonic CD but they parted ways as seen at the end of the game and the events of Sonic Adventure happened four years later.There,Amy was talking about Sonic when a bird flew into her face and she found Sonic reuniting them...That's a huge coincidence~Cyclonestar


 * I just think that Sonic CD should take place after Sonic 3&Knuckles, but before anything else.Ffy671 (talk) 16:22, October 9, 2013 (UTC)


 * Sonic CD is supposed to be the first appearance of Metal Sonic, so Sonic CD would have to take place before Sonic R or Sonic the Fighters. Also, Amy had also fallen in love with Sonic from long before. Her entire reason for coming to Little Planet was because her Tarot Cards told her she had a destined encounter with Sonic. I think Sonic CD takes place before Sonic 2, and Sonic the Fighters, Sonic R, Triple Trouble, and Knuckles' Chaotix takes place after. Thesoniczone11 (talk) 20:39, October 31, 2013 (UTC)

Sonic Riders series
The Sonic chronology seems to have placed the Sonic Riders series in an interesting place, separating the series and placing them in order of release date.

I propose that the Sonic Riders series takes place at some point more in the future than any other Sonic game. And here are some reasons why I believe this.

1. During Sonic Generations, Sonic was sent to the White Space by the Time Eater, along with the people who were attending his party. However, many other people who were not attending his party were also sent to the White Space, namely Metal Sonic, Shadow and Silver, with Silver even being teleported from another time period. This leads me to believe that the White Space that Sonic is in is populated by people who were important to him at the time of his abduction. With that in mind, no one in the Babylon Rogues appears in this game apart from Jet's placement in the trophy room and a cameo on a sign in Speed Highway. If Sonic, Tails and Knuckles are rivals of Jet, Wave and Storm, wouldn't you assume that they would be in the White Space as well, like Shadow and Silver, Sonic's other rivals, are? This leads me to believe that Sonic has not yet met Jet, and is therefore not important enough to be in the White Space, meaning the Sonic Riders series has not yet occurred.

2. The Extreme Gear are only present in the Sonic Riders series. Assuming that the games are not in the future, why does Sonic and Co. use such apparently outdated methods of transportation? I understand that there are some people who are not convinced that Sonic runs slower than an Extreme Gear, and I understand that. But wouldn't an Extreme Gear be faster transportation than Tails Tornado? 200 - 400 mph seems a little out of the capabilities of a bi-plane, even one build by Tails. After looking up bi-plane speeds, I found that some WWI bi-planes could reach 145 mph at top speeds, making an Extreme Gear seem like a faster choice. Also, if Eggman knew how to use an Extreme Gear, based on the speed of the chase at the beginning of Lost World, it appears as if it would be easier for him to escape in an Extreme Gear than his Egg Mobile. But no one is seen using an Extreme Gear, or even talking about them. This leads me to speculate that they did not exist at this time, and that they would be invented during the period inbetween the normal Sonic canon and the Sonic Riders series.

3. Many of the locales of the normal Sonic canon contain lush green wildernesses, including plains. However, in the Riders series, many of the playable locations are urban, futuristic cities that are not usually showcased in Sonic games. The exceptions to the urban landscapes are places that were probably preserved intentionally, such as ruins, jungles and other such beautiful locations. This leads me to believe that in between the normal Sonic canon and the Riders series, many unimportant locations, such as the field Amy and Knuckles are in during Lost World, or maybe even unimportant stages like Wave Ocean, were industrialized and that society advanced to create the urban, futuristic levels that are scattered though the Riders series.

That's my take on the placement of the Sonic Riders series. As for their placement in relation to each other, the games make it clear enough that they do occur chronologically, Riders, followed by Zero Gravity, followed by Free Riders. If you see any flaws in my logic, let me know, because I would be interested to see another take on this.

In conclusion, I believe that the Sonic Riders series should be placed after all notable games in the series, due to the fact that many things that occur in the series, i.e. the Babylon Rogues, the Extreme Gear and incredibly futuristic urban areas, are not present during the rest of the Sonic chronology.
