I like Blaze a lot, too. she has a personality that female Sonic characters needed, she isn't an annoying ball of energy and she isn't a femme fatale. she's more independent and reserved and I like that in a female character.
Back when I first played SA2, I heard a rumor from a friend (I think partially based on a trailer that could actually be unlocked in the game itself) that it was meant to be the last Sonic title. I'm pretty sure it meant the last Sonic ADVENTURE title (which is a lie if you count ports, I really don't though), but for a split second I believed that to be factually true, and I thought that was a pretty cool way to end it.
Naturally I knew it wouldn't end the Sonic franchise as a whole, especially after seeing said trailer for myself a few days later and me smacking my friend upside the head for misinterpreting things, but Shadow should have died with Sonic Adventure 2. Instead, we have not just one, but TWO more hedgehogs, three more if you count whatever the fuck his name was from that 2006 game that was unplayable.
In addition to that, I've kinda gotten tired of those storybook style games like Secret Rings and Sonic and the Black Knight. Granted, I never played either personally, I saw a friend play Secret Rings and it seemed clunky, and as for the Black Knight, can anyone vouche for that? Also Sonic Becomes a Gremlin.. oh wait, Sonic Unleashed... yeah, I heard that game sucked balls because of forcing you into his Werehog stages for collecting shit as a slow, clunky, stretchy mess.
God, I wanna find a hedgehog so I can kill it and eat it... or at least roboticize it. That'd be cool.
