I have to agree with DreamAddiction there. I'm a fanfiction writer too, after all. In fact, the first story I ever wrote was an adaption of Super Mario World several years ago. I portrayed Mario as a love-struck daydreamer, with the energy and focus of someone with ADHD. Make of that what you will.

Sonic has only been a recent (within the last 4 years) favorite of mine though. The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past was the first video game I ever completed, and I loved the series for almost a decade after.

As for Sonic Generations Vs Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, I've played both, and liked both. I object to Sonic Generations being dubbed a "boring racing game" however. I poured over 200 hours into that game, and got to be one of the best players worldwide!

Useless trivia: This same girl also likes Sim City and similar games.
