Sonic > or < Mario?

Yesterday's Inequality here!

Sonic the Hedgehog is a 15-year-old blue hedgehog who has the ability to run at supersonic speeds and curl into a bawl to attack foes (Spin Attack). He originated as the main character in the Sonic video game series released by Sega, but he has since been the star of TV shows, comic books, and a part of many other video games. Sonic can run faster than the speed of sound and is said to be the world's fastest hedgehog. In terms of characteristics, Sonic is a loyal friend who hates oppression and defends freedom. He is normally easy-going, but can become impatient when slowed down, which he endearingly illustrates by tapping his foot when a player puts down the controller for an extended period of time.

Mario is a plumber who battles evil characters in attempts to save Princess Peach and the Mushroom Kingdom. His main nemesis is Bowser, an evil and greedy koopa, who kidnaps Peach every chance he gets (who can blame him?). Mario is virtuous, hard-working, and extremely persistent - he never quits until the job is done. Shooting fireballs, flying in with a raccoon tail, and hopping in a frog suit are just a few of the power-up abilities available to Mario. When he has no power-ups, he normally crushes his enemies by hopping on their heads.

  2. Looks like it's just us for sonic...The more I think about it I'm glad I picked Sonic. Anyone who goes through that much trouble just to rescue some princess who's probably a bitch Isn't worth my vote. Tuck, roll, and stack that cheese baby!
