I'll go for Robotnik, it soo much cooler!
And if there was an adult comic of Sonic, the images of "Robotnik" would be scarier as Eggman doens't send chills down your spine...

Us in the UK and the USA have always had Doctor Robotnik, but that changed with Sonic Adventure... Those fools!
Also, is Sonic 1,2 ect set on another planet like some of the cartoons?

I just finished writing a project for my Game Design class on the original Sonic for the Mega Drive/Genisis, and found out that the planet these original games were set on was originally supposed to be a distorted version of Earth... the planet's name was later changed to 'Mobius' by the writers of the comics and cartoons.

Doctor Robotnik of course. The sonic games and the franchise have become so lame really, you got a super arrogant main character, a moronic main villain who could not take over a pebble, then Tails has become way underused, then Knux has become cleched and always falling for the same tricks every time, Amy Rose is an embarassment to all females, Cream is a little shrimp who I wish would just burn alive in a volcano, Rouge is a big breasted bimbo, Big is utterly useless. and as for Shadow, he can kiss my @$$ for all I care, how come if he is the "ultimate life form" that he needs a stupid gun and a lousy bike, I mean come on what the h311! at least when I give my characters crap like bikes and guns they have a reason for them, but Shadow, hes a wimp. Shadow: OH MARIA! Me: OH SHADDAP YOU TWO BIT PIECE OF SH17 Character!

Shadow: OH MARIA! Me: OH SHADDAP YOU TWO BIT PIECE OF SH17 Character! I Totally agree. The best sonic games are the originals. I also liked the abstract and amusing bosses in these games, which is why Robotnik gets my vote too. The first 'Sonic Adventure' game on Dreamcast was OK, but the second was bad and games just went steadily downhill from there. I couldn't even bear trying the shadow spin-off. I also agree with you that the female stereotyping in the games is awful - there is not one likable female character, which is disappointing.

Does anyone know if Doctor Kintobor is in the official game storyline?
If you don't know him, in one book I have of Sonic it goes like this...
Doctor Kintobor travelled to Mobius one day. He was a very kind thoughtful brilliant scientist. He met a blue hedgehog and made him frictionless trainers so he could run realy fast. One day whilst observing a Chaos emerald. Sonic came up to him with a rotten egg, asking about it. The power of the chaos emerald harnessed the egg and Doctor Kintobor and transofrmed him into Doctor Robotnik! A complete reversal of Dr. K...
Also Robotnik is Kintobor backwards...
Just thought you'd like to know that friends!

I honestly think the addition of all these new characters greatly distracts one from Sonic. I mean Shadow has his own game now.

I honestly think the addition of all these new characters greatly distracts one from Sonic. I mean Shadow has his own game now. well the problem isnt with the expantion of the character roster, but more or less how they are handing it. Now me I dont mind if they have new chararacters every so often I really would not mind. sure I admit I had the choice I would have kept the sonic cast between Sonic, Tails and Knux but I woulod have given more thought into all the others. Really Sega gave Amy Rose a major downgrade from what she was in her original appearence in Sonic CD on the Sega/ Mega CD, she actually had a whole plotline ready for her but when the adventure era caqne they made her into the little squeaky F***N little B1TC* we all know and hate today. And Rouge, I really dont see the point in her, sure as a possible rival to knux is a somewhat good idea, but really her personality and her plotline leaves a sour taste in my mouth. Cream could have acted as a possible love interest for tails, after all trans spiecies relationships in sonic are more cute then offensive. But Cream is a twerp, perhaps even more annoying then Amy. But yeh the one that leaves the most bitter and vile taste in my mouth is Shadow, nothing would make me happier then to see him step on a land mine and blow up into seven million bloody pieces. I hate him, and I hate his fanboys and fan girls too, they all think he is the biggest thing since sliced bread and to suggest that sonic was better without him is blasphemy to those puny little moronic pukes.

As you can see Shadow is a radical difference from Sonic. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

I just wish that Shadow's backstory and character was better, I mean come on at this point he has an ultralame history, an ultraflat personality and calling him "the ultimate lifeform" is innane as he now must use a gun and a bike to give him the "cool factor" but to me it makes him look more lame then he was 60 games ago
