Sonic the Hedgehog

By: Andy L

Sonic the Hedgehog is a game series created by Sega in the year 1991. One reason of its creation is due to the popularity of Nintendo's character, Mario. Sonic can be considered one of the most famous video game characters besides as the Sonic the Hedgehog game series itself has millions of copies sold.

Sonic is a blue hedgehog which has the capability of running faster than the speed of sound and this unique ability has been a big part of the game play of the Sonic the Hedgehog series. His arch nemesis is the infamous Dr. Ivo Robotnik and his creation of evil minions. His best friend however, is a two-tailed fox called Tails and by spinning his tail, he would have the ability to fly.

There are a lot of Sonic the Hedgehog series and all in different genres. He also appeared in numerous other games made by Sega as a signature character. Most of the Sonic games are still available in any game stores. Older ones however, are converted to flash games and would be available at flash game websites such as Sonic Games Play. An upcoming game called Sonic Unleashed would also have him as the main character of the game and is due to release sometime in 2008.

What makes Sonic the Hedgehog so interesting is that the game itself is suitable for any ages. There are not many of its game that could only be played by people with certain ages. Its constant updates also keep the audience from going to other competing games. Right now, most of the Sonic the Hedgehog games are available as a multiplayer game. So, players will not get bored of it because they are actually playing with someone else rather than just playing by themselves. Multiplayer games would usually make the audience stop playing the game much slower rather than single player games but this result may also vary from one game to the other.

Personally, I find that Sonic the Hedgehog games very interesting because they are somewhat addictive. Try the free sonic games online that are available as flash games for example. Sometimes, there would just be an urge to keep going to the max to beat the current high score given by a family member or a friend. Keep in mind that these games existed more than 10 years already and it is still standing strong. This could be one of the factor to which make Sonic the Hedgehog to what it currently is.

Sometimes, it would just be the story line that intrigues the players. There would be times where the feeling of wanting to know more about what will happen next and Sega do know how to play with this feeling and could be considered one of the masters in this art. The story line created by Sega grabs the player on wanting to know more just as an author doing his job on his thriller book.

For starters, you can play some light flash Sonic games at Free Sonic Games. Then you can move on to the console games if you feel like spending some money on it. Just be sure to have fun!
