I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
Thinking about old Robotnik/Eggman makes me think that the light-hearted turn the series has taken as of late is really weird. They've been trying to win back the old fans displeased with the pre-Unleashed 3D games, and it seems like they're bringing back a Sonic that wasn't "real" (at least in the games; they seem to take cues from the likes of Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog now, with the most obvious probably being the inclusion of chili dogs into the games).
True on the Chili Dogs. I think it was to make Sonic himself more characterized and less flat.
Also, Eggman only wants to kill Sonic, his literal mortal enemy, whose children(albeit robots) he often killed. It... does make sense in context. I can't call him a monster after he helped saved humanity more than once. Evil, oh, hell yes.
"Monster" is an insult. It's not something anybody has to prove. And I think it's pretty obvious that Robotnik just sees most of his robots as expendable troops.
I liked Shadow a lot, but it's very cheesy and silly. Which made it more fun for me.
Either way, Eggman is still his mortal rival. Whatever his reasons, Eggy still has gone out of his way to save the world/people. Even family(Shadow himself). Can't be a monster in that case. He has a heart, definitely. It's just a little hard to see. XD
^ I'm using it differently, obviously. Not as an insult, but a character trait. Insult makes sense, though, heh.
Remember back in the 50s when they'd record like Elvis singing YOU AIN'T NOTHIN BUT A HOUND DOG and then they'd turn the record over and reverse it and it was all NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP and people were all like, "That is actually the voice of Satan coming from that song."
It is kind of funny how Bowser tends to have better characterization when he's on Mario's side.

With regulations in place and DDT banned, the eagle population rebounded. The Bald Eagle can be found in growing concentrations throughout the United States and Canada, particularly near large bodies of water. In the early 1980s, the estimated total population was 100,000 individuals, with 110,000–115,000 by 1992;[2] the U.S. state with the largest resident population is Alaska, with about 40,000–50,000, with the next highest population the Canadian province of British Columbia with 20,000–30,000 in 1992.[2]
It was officially removed from the U.S. federal government's list of endangered species on July 12, 1995, by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, when it was reclassified from "Endangered" to "Threatened." On July 6, 1999, a proposal was initiated "To Remove the Bald Eagle in the Lower 48 States From the List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife." It was de-listed on June 28, 2007.[46] It has also been assigned a risk level of Least Concern category on the IUCN Red List.[1]

And yeah, Anonus, that is weird. I guess it's cuz of the backlash against "edgy" games like Shadow and the 2006 Sonic.
I liked Shadow a lot, but it's very cheesy and silly. Which made it more fun for me.
...what would it be when you have one hand on the steering wheel? tumud?
