SEGA hasn't done a particularly great job in handling the blue blur in recent years. From the lackluster Sonic Boom series to the supremely underwhelming Sonic: Lost World, it's been one miss after another for Sonic.
Some may argue the series was never that great, always destined to little more than cheap Mario knock-off, but the original Genesis games and a few later releases do have their fans. Sure, Sonic has struggled a bit to find its footing in 3D, but Sonic Adventure wasn't all bad… right?
