It is extremely unlikely. Sonic 2 is both my first game AND my favorite game, and it has probably done more to define my gaming preferences than any other title. Without it, my early gaming experiences would have been radically different, more strongly defined by Wolfenstein and early 90s PC titles and less by console releases, which, knowing my current preferences, would have moved my tastes more along the strategy side of things than the platformer. I imagine, under those circumstances, I'd be fairly dismissive of Sonic 2 if I played it today.
