the thing i always found annoying with sonic
was that you could complete the levels just by holding right and randomly running/rolling. You could never really do that to the same extent in Mario. Also at times Sonic went so fast that whatever you did on the joypad wouldn't affect him getting killed or not

To be fair, lots of people share this opinion,
having only played a few levels of the first zone of the first game, got bored, and then played something else.
There are trickier platforming bits in all the games, and the rotating bonus stages are bastards.

The rotating bonus sections were brilliant
The trick to the later levels was getting your lives up to about 50 in the Green Hills stages (or whatever the first set of levels were called)

i remember being able to play the first level of sonic with my feet
and yet as soon as you stop moving the physics are so sluggish its like walking through treacle
