But that was 18 years ago (yeah, where's the time gone?) and he's been&#160;redrawn&#160;over and over again to fit new technology.&#160;In fact, unbelievably, Sonic the Hedgehog has appeared on our screens in some 50 guises.

What's happened to you? It's no small secret that Sega's once-dominant mascot has slipped over the years, with awful games making things worse by the month. But worldwide love is still strong, and each time there's a new platformer announced we shuffle in line like a bunch of nice devoted fanboys and pray, deep down, that this will be the Sonic game that doesn't suck. ...</p> feature Apr 9, 2008 http://www.gamesradar.com/gc/sonic-riders/news/sonic-almost-old-enough-to-drive/a-2006062319628216096/g-2006022115559444044 It doesn't really matter how long you've been gaming - you know who Sonic the Hedgehog is. Ever since his first appearance on the Sega Genesis in 1991, the hyperactive hedgehog has consistently been one of the most popular characters in video game history. To honor his longevity, SEGA's trumpeting its new, next-gen Sonic the Hedgehog game, due later this year, as well as an enhanced remake of the original Genesis game, only for Game Boy Advance. The new version will incorporate Sonic's spin ...<br/> news Jun 23, 2006 http://www.gamesradar.com/gc/sonic-riders/review/sonic-riders/a-200603071733223081/g-2006022115559444044 What was once a great and respectable franchise has now become a dumping ground for half-baked games. Sonic Riders straps the world-famous, sonic-booming hedgehog onto a hoverboard in the hopes of creating a blow-your-hair-back, thrill-a-minute mix of Mario Kart and snowboarding trickster SSX. It's fast all right. And loud, too. But everything else that matters (control, course layout, decent multiplayer ... you name it) comes up dead last. The various hoverboards, or "Extreme Gear," ...<br/> review Mar 27, 2006 http://www.gamesradar.com/gc/sonic-riders/videos/g-2006022115559444044/v-200701400000000000000175 Straightforward and arcadey to the core, Riders offers a lot of Sonic fan service but is just too busted for anyone else. video Mar 7, 2006 http://www.gamesradar.com/gc/sonic-riders/videos/g-2006022115559444044/v-200701400000000000000176 Straightforward and arcadey to the core, Riders offers a lot of Sonic fan service but is just too busted for anyone else. video Mar 7, 2006 http://www.gamesradar.com/gc/sonic-riders/videos/g-2006022115559444044/v-200701400000000000000174 Straightforward and arcadey to the core, Riders offers a lot of Sonic fan service but is just too busted for anyone else. video Mar 7, 2006 http://www.gamesradar.com/gc/sonic-riders/preview/sonic-riders/a-20060223173715187097/g-2006022115559444044 Three dreaded words pop into your head the first time you see Sonic Riders in action: 'Kirby', 'Air' and 'Ride'. Characters ride around on floating surfboards without an accelerate button, there are twisty-turny tracks and auto-guiding rails, and even the cornering technique (hold, skid aaand boost) is reminiscent of that certain Nintendo game. Thankfully, that's where the similarities end. Sonic Riders is a fun, hair-rustling rollercoaster of a racer, where things happen so fast that your ...<br/> preview Feb 23, 2006 http://www.gamesradar.com/gc/sonic-riders/preview/sonic-riders/a-20060221161118320019/g-2006022115559444044 It's hard to believe it took until March of 2006 for Sega to strap Sonic's feet to a plank and point him downhill. Everyone from Final Fantasy VII's Cloud to Solid Snake have already geared up for some video grinding over the years. It's not exactly skateboarding or snowboarding, but Sonic Riders is close enough. You'll choose one of 16 characters and guide them down a mountain, through a steamy jungle or into a machinated wasteland while busting tricks and staying ahead of the pack.
