Seeing 
JouigiDragon and 
slychestnut were talking about their opinions about their view on Sonic the Hedgehod games, I got motivated to do it myself as well. ^^
I have played many Sonic games, so I won't be doing every single Sonic games, only the ones I played and left an impact on me, otherwise the list would be way too long. So here we go!
Sonic the Hedgehog 1 Genesis: A Good Sonic game, but a lot more slower paced then the other Genesis Sonic games that has more platforming. Its a classic.
Sonic 2 Genesis: My Childhood favourite! Its a great mix of platforming and speed and it brings Tails, the fox that gave me my love for foxes! If you need a good Genesis Sonic game to start on without complex levels or mechanics, this is the game for you!
Sonic 3 & Knuckles: I'll consider this one game, but this is a great game to end the original Sonic Trilogy. Incredible levels, fun Bonus level, awesome music and a lot of replay-ability!
Sonic CD: I love this game. The levels are a lot of fun and the music is great. Even though I prefer EU/JPN soundtrack in it, I prefer Sonic Boom more then Sonic Warrior, everyone else disagrees with me. ._. If you need to play it, then I would suggest the Steam/Android/PS3/X360 Remaster since its wide screen, something Sonic games really need to see whats ahead.
Sonic Spinball: I have a LoveHate Relationship with this game. I love the graphics and environment in it, but the gameplay is frustrating.
Sonic Adventure 1: I have so much fond memories of this game and I always enjoy going back to it. Its very basic and glitchy out of the 3D sonic games, but its not a bad start to the 3D era for Sonic.
Sonic Adventure 2: I was hard on this one. I found the game more buggy and frusterating then SA1. But after going back to it, I was proved wrong and still saw the game is still fun. Just be cautious on the bugs.
Shadow the Hedgehog: Yes, the story is stupid and Shadow using the gun is pretty lame. But I find the gameplay to be a lot of fun. Its the best version of the Adventure like controls before they would change how 3D Sonic games play.
Sonic The Hedgehog 06: ... .. ... ... Its no use...
Sonic Rush: I really enjoy this one a lot! I always go back to it during the DS era. I wish there was more 2D Sonic games like this, instead of getting...
Sonic 4: Episode 1: Ugh... This is a sluggish, physics breaking game... I did not enjoy this. I enjoyed the idea of going back to the roots, but it did it all wrong.
Sonic Colors: I love this one also. The gameplay is spot-on, the Wisp mechanic fits well and doesn't feel too gimmicky, and the story is silly. There's nothing wrong with a game that takes a step into the humorous side of a franchise.
Sonic Generations: This is a wonderful way to celebrate Sonic's Anniversary. The 3D levels are action packed and exciting.The 2D levels are very nice too, but I feel that Classic Sonic is a bit stiff with his controls. I love the callback to the previous Sonic games and I have to give SEGA another point for even adding a level from Sonic 06, despite the reputation.
Sonic R: ... .... Its a guilty pleasure. I sort of enjoy this title too. Its not the best but its not... ... naww its pretty bad. But it has a charm that makes me go back to it.
Tails' Adventure: This is a really fun title and is a golden gem for the SEGA Game Gear. It doesn't have the fast pace action game play like the other games. Its a Adventure Collectathon that is done right that has good progression, back tracking and exploring. and its a game staring Tails! What more can you want?
Sonic Advance 1,2,3: No one ever talks about these ones. These are some of the best games for the Game Boy Advance. Sonic Advance 1 feels a lot like the classic Sonic game with a decent speed and layouts very similar to the mechanics of the old. Sonic Advance 2 is my favorite out of the the three because of its faster gameplay and its award for good performance equals good speed. Its a game where it makes you want to master it. Sonic Advance 3 is probrably the weakest out of the three. While the 2 character machanic is clever, the game has too many traps they hide using the GBA's lower resolution like Sonic 2 on Game Gear, but not as bad as Sonic 2.
Sonic Mania: This is a Sonic game recapturing the Genesis games done perfect! The game makes sure the gameplay feels like a 2D Sonic game made in 1996 for SEGA Saturn. It has wonderful levels, awesome music and the game continues to grow. The creators of this games are Sonic Fans, showing SEGA what Sonic fans want for a 2D Sonic game. Looking forward to the Expansion!
And that's all of the Sonic games that were in my head when I wrote this. I hope you all enjoyed this and let me know if you agree or disagree with my opinions or if you want to know my opinion on Sonic games I didn't list on here, I know I missed a few.
Have a good night everyone! ^^
