I would never admit that it's Sonic's time to die. Many franchises looked like they were on their way out, but they have come back fighting.
Sonic, however, is hanging by a thread. The franchise has been slipping since Sonic Heroes, and it culminated with Sonic 06. I must say, that game broke my heart.
Sonic Unleashed shows promise, but the Werehog gimmick slightly ruins it for me. It might very well be enjoyable, but what SEGA really needs to do is make a game just about speed... no cheesy gimmick, no annoying side-charachters - just Sonic ripping through stages at high speed.
