Yeah, tell me about it.
Sonic is probably the best in terms of visuals, but in terms of gameplay, not TOO much really goes on. In sonic, all you really do is hold down "right" on the Dpad. Quite elementary.
In Mario, its pretty slow and not as good looking as sonic, but hence, it being slow, you need to dodge a bunch of crap and jump on them/shoot fireballs at them.
Sonic teaches you what life is like not being touched by anything and going at Mach 3. Mario teaches you how to be a fat man who everyone beats on because he has a girlfriend way out of his league.

OKay so perhaps sonic pwnz mario in looks, but theres not much contest over gameplay.
In my opinion.

Sorry about my argueing. And i don't know how you think Mario is better.
Anyway i did a survey on msn and it seems Mario seems to be better...
Heres what they said:
Beez says:
Do you like mario or sonic better?
MoNk! says:
sonic!
Beez says:
Who do you like more Sonic or Mario?
Eldarian says:
sonic is cool, but mario is italian
Eldarian says:
you cant beat italian plumbers fighting giant mushrooms
Beez says:
Who do you like more Sonic or mario?
FredaloT says:

-------------------
Well, Mario is the new best game but Sonic is retro. End of discussion

Beez u are right

One mans opinion does make something right or wrong,
please stop acting as if it does.
I see your point, and I have no arguements with it. I, personally, find mario games to be more entertaining.
Especially in the newer games.
Theres room to explore, fool around in, and is not straight forward plot all the way.
The sonic games feel too resrictive. Your on a race track, its not like your allowed to wander around that much. In the later sonic games you have chao and such, but even then, its just a tid bit on the side, it doesn't play much of a role in the game.
Wheras in mario, there is so much to do and experience, I can personally find more merit from such games. Thats my piece, feel free to express your opinion as you like.
Just speak for yourself, and only for yourself.

There is never going to be a right or wrong answer to this question because it is simply a matter of people's opinions.
Having said that, if you want to influence people into your way of thinking, it simply isn't good enough to say "Sonic is better, end of story!" or vice versa.
If you said something like, "Sonic is better because the speed of the game adds to the excitement. He has the ability to go SuperSonic, the enemies are better loooking" etc etc etc at least you're trying to justify your point of view.
Otherwise it really just dound like a bunch of 5 year olds in a play ground! Come on chaps let's have some proper reasons!
Personally I like the look and feel of the Sonic games better. The 2D versions of the game are far more fun to play than the later 3D ones because you seem to miss so much of them due to Sonic's excessive speed. There are some interesting levels on the 2D that do prove to be quite a challenge, and the boss battles are fun as you work out it's path and them destroy him.
Mario on the other hand is a small fat Plumber, but there seems to be more to find and discover in his games. Giving it a larger feel. The ememies also appear to be smarter and more of a challenge to defeat. Also as he moved into the 3D versions, there's definitely a lot more to do and hense more fun because it's at a pace that you can handle. And boy, Yes! Is his misses ever way out of his league... And besides he keeps on letting her get kidnapped all the time... And then there's the dreaded film version... But let's not speak of that ever again!!!
Two exceptionally likable and interesting characters, Mario gets the edge for me!
PS: This is in the wrong forum anyway! Check before you post yeah
