I'm not insulting the competition, I'm insulting the fact that Sega put in a new character in every damn Sonic game they make. Can't they just build upon the existing characters instead of sticking a new one in every game?

A friend of mine claims that adding a new character "evolves the Sonic series". Same for adding city levels (another thing I disagree with in Sonic games).

Adding new characters doesn't evolve anything. It just sticks stuff on there without care for what's come before and try to pass it off as growth. It'd be like gluing leaves and branches to plant and calling it growth.

Yeah, you're right. They have enough characters to keep things interesting for a good long time now.

*hisses at Alan* Myyyyy preciousssssssss...

I personally wish they'd go back to fighting Robotnik as the villain and not add some random villain each time. With Shadow, yeah fine, I can understand the reasoning behind it. But I don't want to see some mystical being from a parallel universe with Sonic's DNA combined with the Biolizard as the main villain. I want to see Robotnik fighting Sonic and the team. And I want the animal badniks back.

But Sonic needs more villains. Theres a huge hero to villain imbalance, especially if we account for all the anti-heroes.

Dracula's the villain for every Castlevania game. Bowser's the villain for a large percent of Mario games (I think only the RPGs and the original Game Boy games have final villains that aren't Bowser). There's Robotnik, Metal Sonic and to a lesser extent Omega that could pose as potential threats in the Sonic universe. Just so long as those pathetic Sonic X robots aren't incorporated in any way. Especially not the black one with the scarf. Dear god, that was an annoying robot. I'd rather have Scratch and Grounder come back...

And I still want the animal badniks.

Yeah, you're right. Really, they're trying too hard to shock us with a major plot twist, while not realising that big plot twists only have an effect when we aren't hit by so many of them at once.

What about Soma? What about Baby Bowser? What about Donkey Kong?

As far as Soma's concerned, I don't count him in Castlevania continuity. Not until Carrie and Sonia are acknowledged by Iga as canon. Donkey Kong was the villain in 3 games. And as I said before, the Game Boy games are probably the only ones to not have Bowser as the villain. Baby Bowser IS Bowser. The one in Super Mario Sunshine is Bowser Junior or something like that, and he wasn't the final boss.

Fuming bitter old man?

edit: Just to say, I'm not saying I'm right by not counting Soma in Castlevania, I'm saying Iga's wrong for not counting Carrie or Sonia in it.

umm.. Donkey Kong, and I think DK 3? Bah, Mario vs Donkey Kong, and the Donkey Kong remake, just to name a few. What about wario from super mario world 2? Wart? The final villain from super mario land?

Don't worry, if the Bison ever take over the midlands Godzilla will take care of them. Just like he did with Bambi.

Robotnik is the villian everybody thinks of when they think Sonic anyway, why not actually USE him as the villian?

Because people will see that coming. That's why.

Oh, the games always start out with Robo..Sorry, sorry. Eggman as the villain, but quickly switch over. Shadow the Hedgehog is the exception which proves the rule.

Sonic Rush.

...Okay, technically, Robo--Eggman teamed up with someone, but he was still the final boss.
Dr. Wiley has surrendered. Mega Man has saved the planet from destruction. But will it last!!!

Because Eggman is predictable and not very intimidating. Much like bowser, his plans are BORING and its impossible to build a plot around him.

edit: fixed!

Eggman's not predictable. The people who make the games and give him his script are.

That's right. Eggman's a jobber.
