Myself 123 wrote: Bart is still 10 in the Simpsons, even though that series has been going on for over 20 years. Also Tails has still been shown to depend on Sonic at times. Tails' personality drastically changed in Lost World, which I would account for a writer who isn't as familiar with the Sonic series.

Sonic Channel is the best source for any character's age, as the website gets undated frequently. The Simpsons still exists? Haven;t heard of that show in a while. But comparing this aging concept to that show doesn't work because that show did not really have each episode take place in a certain order; unlike the Sonic games, which do have a storyline and do take place in chronological order, whch brings me to my next point...

So, say we start counting at Sonic Adventure, just as a reference here. We know that, based on the linked storyline, the same storyline from this game continued all the way through ''Sonic Advance 2, SonicHeroes, Shadow the Hedgehog, and Sonic 2006. ''If the characters had remained the same age through all of these games, all of their events would have had to take place in less than a year.

Furthermore, because those games were still in the same storyline as the 3 recent ones (Colors, Generations, and Lost World), then all of thses game in total would have had to have taken place in less then a year. (It was suggested that they were in the same storyline by the characters already being familiar with those who were met in those games, such as Team Chaotix, Shadow, Blaze, etc.)

So that brings us to the question I have for Sega: Did the story all those games really take place in less than a year?

In my opinion, I don't see this as being possible.
