Worst is Sonic 2006 for thinking it was a good idea to have a love story with a human.

Best is, uhh.... I guess technically Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood although that's kind of cheating because even the shittiest Bioware JRPG Sonic game is still a narrative.

My experience with the sonic games comes from before they had a story.

Mario and Sonic at the Winter Olympics has the best story.

Honestly? SA1 and 2 were perfectly serviceable stories. If you don't look at them as high literature, and instead as like, young reader fantasy adventures, they're fine.

Worst I'll give to Shadow the Hedgehog. I'm actually one of the weirdos who enjoyed playing the game, but every part of it read like some edgy kid's fanfic sequel to Sonic Adventure 2 lol.

Sonic 1 had the best story. Just a hedgehog saving animals from Dr. Eggman. That's all it ever needed to be.

That's funny because SA2 read like an edgy fanfiction to begin with.

This is a good description of them I think. Although I do think the second game started to tilt into that 2000s 11 year old american boy edge a bit far

I'm gonna go on a limb here and say Sonic Unleashed has the best story. It's the most enjoyable, and is the perfect balance of silliness and seriousness. It doesn't get overtly serious like SA2 and Shadow, but it also doesn't get super light-hearted that it feels like you're playing a game strictly for kids. It's also a bit more than the simple "stop Eggman" plot that games like Sonic Heroes, Colors, and Generations have.

The originals were great. It was kind of hard to tell what the hell was going on. You had to piece everything together a little bit by gathering stuff from the various guides and other scattered materials like obscure snippets of text. If you hadnt played all of the games in the series, it was obviously impossible to keep track of everything too.

Sonic CD arguably has the best story of what could be called the first games

Adventure 2 was perceived as cool for venturing away from the original style, but almost everything afterwards has been bad.

Sonic OVA

also, the sonic comics! That archetype or model for kind of what kind of became the basis for sonics story, and then there was the cartoon. Its crazy to think of how much Sonic the Hedgehog there is out there in the world but at the same.... as a lifelong fan of the franchise.... I know I can pick & choose to accept whatever material I do or dont want. :)

Sonic 3 with Sonic and Knuckles locked on. Feels like a complete adventure with enough there for you to fill in the plot details with your imagination without feeling cheated. Defined my childhood for sure!

Knuckles is a shitty character. So is everyone aside from Sonic and Eggman, tbh

Knuckles has become a shitty character.

He went from being like a Mechagodzilla-level fictional rival to being... ...whatever it is theyve done with him.

He was always shitty. A poor man's Sonic, Eggman, Metal Sonic and Tails in one.
