Sonic the Hedgehog is a series with so many fans, but it's easy to forget that many of them didn't grow up with the Genesis games. My history of Sonic started in 2009 when I was 19 years old, and I've mostly had a positive experience with the franchise. I thought it'd be fun to delve into how I became a fan, and what I look for in a Sonic game. While it may not be interesting to everyone, I hope it puts an interesting perspective in place for those who grew up with the Genesis games.
