This is probably just me and my haywire emotions, but every time i watch SatAM or play the old mega drive sonic games, i feel this immense sadness and nostalgia and almost cry. It's because it's so sad that SatAM and the mega drive were the highest points of Sonic's franchise and SatAM ended so early in its prime. Does anyone else feel sad or cry because the greatness that was sonic and SatAM is long gone, having slim to no chance of coming back, or that seeing SatAM or the third season on the television once more will probably never happen, or knowing that Ben Hurst being gone with all of his possibly greatest work just distant memories? again this just might be my haywire emotions or being very obsessive about sonic. I miss Mr. Hurst

SatAM will never be truly dead so long as there are still those around who remember it, appreciate it, and are willing to do what it takes to continue Ben's legacy.

Hi Noctis,

I have a few old memories of Sonics 2 and 3 and SatAM - they're happy(ish) ones.

It sounds to me that there's more to this for you than simply the height of the Sonic era. Certainly it represents something very positive for you. The depth of your response suggests to me that you associate something else with that particular era, something you very much miss.

If watching SatAM or playing an old game make you cry, you may want to seek professional help. It's great to have stuff that moves us, but when something causes such deep sadness, one needs help getting over that. Perhaps if you can get help with that, then you'll be able to play the games or watch the show and feel good.

I kinda see what you are saying. For me, playing through Sonic and Knuckles or just hearing some of the music from SatAM always brings a smile to my face. A lot of that is it brings back several fond childhood memories of other things as well. Maybe it is the same with you, it makes you remember a (probably) much more simple time in your life and you get the longing to kind of live like that again.

It is also partially that you grew up with a certain Sonic, and the new Sonic just isn't the same. Those who grow up with this Sonic will probably not like the next Sonic.
