The thing that stopped me from enjoying Sonic was when his games became bad. Not that fact that I'm looking for the Sonic of the past. Yes that would be awesome but I still know a good game when I see one.
God of War, Halo, and even Ninja Gaiden (a series whom 2D games I loved) are all great 3D games and I doubt making them 2D or with sprites would make them better or worse as the gameplay was brilliant.
However the new Sonic games do not have brilliant gameplay. Even the new 2D Sonic games aren't great. Sonic is simply not a great franchise anymore and that's my problem with it.
For the record my first console was the N64. Sure I played as Tails on Sonic on the MegaDrive when I was 6 but that doesn't really count. The first time I played a game as a gamer was with the N64. I went BACK to the old games, I didn't start with them.
