Not all too surprising, four of the top five come from the original Genesis series because the classic style of Sonic play is really what Sonic is - and always should be.
With no further ado, enjoy:
#5
Sonic Adventure - Dreamcast
After years of wondering when Sonic would return, he reappeared in his first truly three-dimensional game. Debuting with the launch of the Dreamcast, Sonic Adventure was able to synthesize the fast-paced action of the classic Sonic titles with a 3D graphics engine. The story was okay, but the voice acting was very good and Sonic's speed levels were fantastic. Too bad they diverged from that winning formula in Sonic Adventure 2.
#4
Sonic the Hedgehog - Genesis
The original has to be a part of the list of top five titles. The capability of the Genesis rendering movement that quickly was a shear shock and hailed as a technical achievement at its time. Level designs were fantastic and there was nothing like it on the market aside from Super Mario Bros. However, you were unable to save your game which made the game's difficulty nearly unmanageable and incredibly frustrating after you had already played the game for over an hour.
#3
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 - Genesis
This Sonic title brought more Sonic action to hungry gamers. What was so shocking about this game was that fact that you could actually save your game so it was possible to actually complete the game. Also, some of the gameplay elements were expanded to create unique platforming elements and cool new items such as the fire and lighting power-ups.
#2
Sonic the Hedgehog 2 - Genesis
Pretty much the only fault in this game is...the introduction of Tails. Sonic 2 was bundled with the Genesis so everyone owned and played this game. The difficulty was reduced slightly from its predecessor and integrated more fast-paced action as well. It basically took the best elements from the previous game and integrated it into the entire title. Pure classic!
#1
Sonic & Knuckles - Genesis
Picked by YOU as your favorite Sonic title, Sonic & Knuckles introduces a decent Sonic character and develops him well with his own unique actions such as flying and climbing. The design of the levels, bosses, and even music surpass the previous Sonic titles with creating a nearly perfect synthesis within the genre that the series itself created. The imagination and renovation of this title makes this the best Sonic game, of which the spirit should be re-created in a three-dimensional form.
