@Gene: I can agree by now that the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise can step itself in any direction it wants... Besides, it's Sega and Sonic Team who owns the series to start off with! They've been going strong since 1991 and fewer fans were starting to become worried about the Blue Blur's leap to 3D. However, I was one of the fans who stuck with these titles (even Sonic 06 and Shadow the Hedgehog, despite their legendary atrociousity) thick and thin... And I wouldn't lie about it! So in other words, Genesjs, you and I are two of a majority of fans who think Sonic in versatile.

@Battlelord: The only thing that mainly comes to my mind whenever a different franchise has explored a different game genre is Castlevania: Judgment for the Nintendo Wii. As a Castlevania title, I find it very unsatisfying, but as a stand-along fighting game (because you will find I have a lot of curiousity and excitement for fighting games, in general), you could say it's either mediocre or decent just by looking at videos... Yet I never owned or played the game and I don't plan on to in the future. When outside of the gaming media, I usually like to compare the original ThunderCats with the reboot they're showing on Cartoon Network now (I see very little nowadays because the network has turned into a "doomsday device", and only about three or four shows are passable) Personally, I find the reboot of the ThunderCats series actually gives the whole franchise justice... And you may also find it to be one of the better remakes up against the mediocre ones (*cough* Voltron Force *cough*) The only saving grace I found in the original was for its epic opening theme, Larry Kenney, the music, Earl Hammond, and the nostalgia factor. The new one has character development, a deeper and darker story, well-thought music, SNARF DOESN'T TALK, and it has great voice acting to put in minor improvements. Overall, I feel the reboot could actually be better than the original... Minus the opening theme.
