@Speed: I agree with you, that I don't think a story just being dark would automatically make it good. A good story has the other aspects such as story, good character development, decent action, etc. like you said (at least in my honest opinion). The same could be said of lighter tones too, in my opinion, because I need more than just tone in order to fully like what I'm playing. If you're gonna try and give a Sonic game, or any kind of game for that matter, a story with a certain tone then it'd be best to focus more on the story itself than the tone, because, more often than not, doing so can lead to disaster for many.
