Sonic, in Generations also referenced Sonic and the secret rings, but that is clearly a spin-off game.

Now as for my claim, I think that Sonic 2 is far better. Sonic 2 has Super sonic and actual chaos emeralds. It doesn't use confusing time travel, the gameplay is much easier and a bit more challenging at times. Plus, Sonic 2 has a major Star Wars reference (the death egg), and Star Wars is my life. Of course I love both, and I accept that both are in the main cannon, I prefer sonic 2.
