On this day the one and only legend that is Sonic the Hedgehog has turned 18, congratulations dude!

me and him go back a long way, i first played his games back in 1994 when i got my first games console, the Sega master system, i can still remember never being able to finish sky high zone on sonic 2 or jungle on Sonic 1 (which i still have not been able to complete to this date).

for such a legend to still be entertaining the masses is a truly amazing feat by anyones standards, right?

the first computer game i ever played and my first experience of Sonic was Sonic 2 on the master system

what was your first encounter with the blue dude with an attitude? in game? on TV? or in the comics?
