I've always preferred Mario, but that's not to say the older Sonic games were bad in any way. However, the newer Mario games (excluding the sports titles) seem to be quite a bit better than what Sonic has turned out to be. Of course, it's a silly comparison. The only thing the two games have in common is the fact that you go from left to right in a level and collect gold in a specific shape. :-/
I haven't played any later 3D games, so the comparison is mostly based on the 2D games, which were fairly similar.Quote:

Oh man. Hard to decide. But Mario wins for having better games. :)
-_O Such a difficult decision for me. I'm going to go with Sonic though since he had a better cartoon then Mario and isn't a stereotype.
Mario.:) I absolutely love Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door!:) It's so much better than Sonic Adventure DX that Sonic video game sucks!:mad:
Did they put Sonic in an RPG? If they did, we could compare it to the truly great Mario RPG, Super Mario RPG, and be like, "Man, the mario rpg was much better!"
Hmm compairing Sonic to Mario... lets compair a .357 magnum to a sling shot.
Some people called Sonic Adventure DX a RPG. Those people referred to that game as the Sonic RPG.
*facepalm*
I was actually tempted to make a Sonic RPG with RPG maker but I'm way to lazy to learn it. I got sprites and sounds and crap but not idea how to use it. Any voulonteers?
Man, Sonic Adventure must have really been bad, then, since Super Mario RPG is supposed to be really good compared to the other Mario RPG's, and those other RPG's are better the Sonic RPG? And so the plumber dominates no matter how you look at things, heh heh.
15-8 Mario, that's what I like to see.
Every Sonic game developed after 1998 has been some kind of disaster, and they're getting only worse with each new installment, descending steadily along a downward spiral into outright unplayability. And regarding the overall cast, the post-Adventure character design revisions are highly unappealling, as are the droves of vapid new characters they insist on introducing at a steady, miserable drip.
But there's nothing not to like about Mario.
Mario all the way!!!! :D
Without a doubt, Mario. Sonic had some great games on the Genesis, but Mario has been great throughout the years (even with the awful blemish that was Mario's Missing! and it's sequel). Sonic has failed miserably in the 3D market, where Mario has obviously succeeded. It's like Kishi said, Sonic games have been getting worse and worse since 1998 and the characters are miserable and horrid. They're unmemorable, and when you do remember them, you likely wish you didn't.
Sonic, I HATE mario.
