Hello everyone, and welcome to the hospital. I'm the resident Doctor in the house, so you know who to trust!

I'm no elitist or anything, but I will defend my opinion to the death with my deadly surgical tools, so please hold off on the attacks lest I dissect you.

1. Sonic 3 & Knuckles
What can I say? It's the best Sonic game ever produced.Four awesome characters, 14 zones, less glitches than in Sonic 2, amazing graphics for the time, best use of super forms ever, full of secrets and goodies, great stage design and story, incredible game overall. Too bad it was split in two.

2. Sonic Heroes
Some people might find this an odd choice for my favorite 3D Sonic game, but I think it did the best job at transistioning the Genesis Sonic experience into 3D. And they are more similar than you think. If you think of each team as one character or entity, if you will, and see how each team has to go through the same levels with subtle differences in gameplay and level design, does this not compare favorably to S3&K? Not to mention the soundtrack and graphics were wonderful, and the story was just an excuse to set up the action, as it should be in my opinion. The only problems I have with it are (1.)﻿ Rail Canyon and Bullet Station were terrible, and (2.) Teams Rose and Dark. Both of them feature characters that are only fan appeal or filler. I can think of two better teams off the top of my head: Mighty, Ray, and Heavy, and Fang, Bean, and Bark. And if they really wanted to make it interesting, why not Tikal, Gamma, and Chaos 0? I will grant that Team Dark was the most fun to play as, though.

3. Sonic Rush
ROFL FAYUL BEWST 2 WIN!!!11!one!!11one! I hate these people. Boost is an optional gameplay feature. The stages are not quite as linear as you would think, the gameplay changes frequently (but fluidly), and there are legitimate platforming challenges in this game, such as the likes of Night Carnival or Altitude Limit Zone. The aesthetic is amazing; I love the Jet Set Radio feel they gave it. The soundtrack is made of win, it has a great story (making use of the only cool character released after SA1.

The Doctor's Favorite Characters

 * 1) Vector da Crocodile - As if it isn't obvious why he's made of win.
 * 2) Metal Sonic - Ditto
 * 3) and 4. Knuckles and Julie-Su - both are strong, both are stubborn, both are fairly smart, and both are great leaders. They rock.

The Doctor's Euthanasia list
These characters need to die.

1. Cream the Rabbit - I have a personal vendetta against this character. She is nothing, she does nothing, and is probably only there because some VA wanted to get paid. You get rid of Cream, and practically NOTHING changes. I hate her so.

2. Big the Cat - Ditto. He has a bit more relevance, and he at one time had potential, but SEGA has clearly shown that they themselves have no idea why this character exists. He barely had any relevance even in the context of his own story. Horrible guy.

3. Babylon Rogues - Stop wasting SEGA's time with a game franchise that's ridiculous in concept and even worse - replacing my beloved Chaotix.

4. Monkey Khan - Hey look everyone! It's a character that's barely different from Sonic! He's cool, right?... right?

5. Any hedgehog other than Sonic, his family in Underground, and obviously Metal if he counts - Amy's pointless, annoying, and a complete contradiction to what Sonic is; Shadow's a boring Gary-Stu who has no reason to be around anymore; Silver's whiny, annoying, a ripoff, a symbol of the dreaded Sonic 06, and basically an inferior version of Tails (at least personality-wise) with mind powers, something I don't want to see in a Sonic game; Scourge is even more of a Gary-Stu than Shadow, being a recolour and all, and plus he dresses and acts like a poser to boot; and Mephiles is yet another lame evil recolour who kills Sonic. Why would I like a character that kills True Blue, the main hero? I wouldn't mention him, but his fanbase seems rather large for some reason.

6. Mina Mongoose - A slightly more independant Amy who has still done nothing. Die.

7. Cosmo the Seedrian - Ditto the above.

8. Chris - Need I say more?

9 Bark the Polar Bear - Unless he goes Silent Bob on us, YAAWWWNNN.

10, Shade the Echidna and Pir 'Oth Ix - Probably quite good characters in their own right, but I'd rather just have the originals from the comic, thank you.

That's all for now, will be updating later. SEE YA.
