Happy birthday, Sonic! The original Sonic the Hedgehog released over 30 years ago today for the Sega Mastersystem. I’m getting old.

I still make the argument that Sonic 2 was the best out of the trilogy in terms of gameplay and music.
While 3 was great, I think it suffered from the level design being a bit wonky on some areas (looking at you, Marble Garden Zone).
Yeah the original sonic was a little too slow in accelerating. Sonic 2 had better control, the addition of the spin dash, the new power-ups were fun. And the sudden appearance of Mecha Sonic blew my mind. And Super-Sonic!
Massive step up from Sonic 1 to 2.
Sonic 3 was just ok. Some cool things here and there, and with the Sonic 3 + Knuckles Tower of power there was a lot of levels to play. It was… fine.
Sonic 2 was the Empire Strikes Back of Sonic games.
2 was good because of the split screen helper mode, it was the first game I had access to that included that and perfect for when you have an eager 4 year old to amuse.
I liked the design of 1 better though.
