I was introduced to sonic through a plug n play system named "Super Sonic Gold" (SSG) which had the following games in order through played.

Sonic the Hedgehog 1 (SSG/Steam) - I think this was the first game me/my siblings played, either way, we didn't play it as much as sonic 2 because it was too hard for us.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (SSG/Steam) - Definitely Top 3 if not #1 on my Sonic games list, if not just for nostalgia

Sonic Spinball (SSG/Steam) - Was too hard for us, we played it some, though.

Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine (SSG/Steam) Was also too hard for us, and we didn't play it much.

That was all of the games on the plug n play system. Sooner or later we stopped playing the collection, and we didn't really follow the sonic series after that. FAAAAST forward Years later... Around 2014, I stumbled upon somebody(s) video(s) about sonic (Top 10s, discussions, etc. ) Either way, I kind of tagged along for people's videos, slowly learning about the history of the franchise. After I got steam I got the following games

Sonic Adventure 2 (Steam) - Just played for the first time 3 or 4 years ago, was a blast, knuckles/rouge  gameplay was a little annoying, but overall I loved the game and the story.

Sonic Adventure DX (Steam) - Also liked the game, It took me awhile to figure how to advance through the hub worlds sometimes. The big and amy levels were pretty boring though i didn't really hate them. (except for big in hot shelter)

Sonic the hedgehog 3 & Knuckles (Steam) - First played this on an emulator (got it on steam later) I honestly don't know what to think about this game, it just didn't snap with me like the first games did. I had fun. but just as much fun as playing before and after the sequel fan games. And I kind of expected more from it.

I finally got a used WII, and I got the following games

Sonic Unleashed (WII) - I really like this game, although, the werehog stages dragged out too long. The presentation and music are just spot on, and the daytime stages were awesome to play and fun to master. with the exception of Eggmanland, which I still haven't finished.

Sonic Colors (WII) - I tried... I tried to like this game, even with the (I don't like to use this word, but) cringe-worthy writing and voice acting, the constant switch to 2D platforming sections that were just boring combined with pace-braking wisps. (I haven't got around finishing it) I got stuck on a boss I swear that's supposed to be so easy. So maybe I judged the game too soon.

Sega and sonic all-stars racing (Wii/Steam) - Pretty fun kart racing game, kind of like a little bit lame Mario Kart, as they pretty much just copied and re-skinned all the Mario kart items, still fun overall.

Sonic and All-stars racing transformed (Steam) - Improved on the last game vastly, and made the campaign really fun, and you could even do it with up to 4 players split screen. Definitely the best Kart racer on Steam

Sonic CD (Steam/Android) - Pretty fun classic sonic game, the time travel can be somewhat rage worthy but the PC/android ports allow for saving so it's a fun time.
