Explanations Of The Popularity Of Sonic Games Online

By Simon Smith


The sonic games online are very popular. Why is this? There are several new characters out there these days and it is difficult to understand why this tiny blue hedgehog is still a favorite with game players. It should not be able to compete with these more modern and in depth games but it still commands a great deal of fans. This paper will try to give the answers to this question.

The Sega Master System was the first place that sonic appeared back in the 80s. Whoever made this game had to create some new features to be able to compete with the dozens of other titles available at the time. Sonic jumped to every new console made after Sega stopped making video games and has enjoyed increased popularity since then.

The lovable character of Sonic the hedgehog is known for his unruly but friendly attitude. His speed is his best known feature and remains familiar to hedgehog lovers to this day. The only reason that he fight at all is because an evil villain is messing around in his world. We all love heroes and we all love to play as them when we get the chance.

In an era where most story lines consisted of the same standard rescue the princess from the villain story, this titles storyline was fresh and exciting. In it, the villain is and evil doctor named Ivo Robotnik, also known as Eggman, who wants to turn all the little animals into machines. Every level that is beat shows this character releasing these little animals from a large machine.

You pick up golden rings as you play which can give you an extra life or protect you from enemies. If you get hit and have even a single ring, that ring will be taken from you but you get to continue with the level. This was different since most games had a bar at the top of the screen to show how much health remains for the individual playing.

This title also contained chaos crystals. Whenever you got one of these crystals, you were able to use a different weapon. This was a big change on the titles where it was necessary to upgrade or buy new weapons at a store.

These are addicting and challenging to play. They are easy to figure out how to play but difficult to master. Most modern types have no replay value since and once you beat them they have no more use. Sonic is fun and it is always challenging to play not matter how many times you beat it. That makes it extremely popular to people who do not want to spend a fortune on a new game every time they beat the old one.

In conclusion, these titles are so popular because they contain a likable character and storyline and have a high replay value. These features were a key part of the original Sega version of the games and can still be found in the online versions as well. This will make sure that this little blue hedgehog will have fans for many more years.
