No, he's nowhere near as cocky as he used to be when he was battling mario for console bragging rights, plus I hate how he has a voice now, and it sounds like some prepubescent boy.

Sonic is one character that should have never given a voice to. It totally ruins what he used to sand for.

He used to be able to run really fast. That's all I can think he stood for.

Ohhh careful there! I've found that you're not allowed to speak ill of Sonic and the Secret rings. You must convince yourself it's an awesome game as everyone else has.... even though it's complete and utter garbage. Pretty garbage though, I'll give it that... but garbage nonetheless.

As far as personality goes, Sonic is, and always has been, a childish braggart. It's part of his charm. If I had to liken him to another character, I'd say he's very much like a fusion between Goku and Vegeta...so, he's very much like Vegetto. Which makes him cocky as hell. And he has reason to be cocky as hell, especially since he can go Super Saiya....er, Super Sonic. Y'know, all golden, glowy, super-super-fast, and all-around better.

yeah I always thought sonic was kinda cocky really, I think I'm like the only person who doesn't actually mind his voice as its the one from that last series they made, sonic-x I think? Its alright but I can get over it ;) and I'm actually enjoying the game I think its pretty fun, and now that I'm more than half-way through sonics even faster :D

Yeah, I agree he should have never been given a voice. Maybe just say one or two one liners and thats it. I really hate all the sonic spinoff characters like shadow and those other random guys.  I just want sonic, tales and knuckles, plz thx.

Did you watch the Sonic SATAM? Jaleel White (a.k.a Urkel in Family Matters) made Sonic a cocky one. But still Jaleel White was THE voice of Sonic and should always have been.

In the games, Sonic is not really cocky.

this is kinda off topic, but here is what i see about the 3d sonic games.

the creators try waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to hard to make sonic seem like the "cool" character over mario. in every game, there is that cheesy rock music tahts basically saying "oh, look at me!! i have electric guitars in my songs!!"

then there is the cheesy voice acting. they try to give knuckles and sonic that "i dont care about the world cause im too cool" voice, but because the voice actors have voices like that, its obvious how miserably the creators attempted to get "cool" voice actors. (sorry for the overuse of the quotes)

then there ist he actual gameplay. sonic doesnt even have that sense of amazing speed anymore, because partly, you cant even play as sonic for most of the games!! when secret rings came out, a lot of the reviewers said "this game is what a sonic game should be about. sonic!!" the recent games the sonic team made are like "ooh!! look at us!! we have 10 characters you can play as!! each one has their own story!!" (again, sorry for the quotes) every character cept sonic always has shallow gameplay, cause the other characters have dumb controls like flying, digging, swinging a bat, driving cars, sending boxes flying at enemies... sonic is supposed to be about the speed, which they managed to fix in secret rings.

finally, sonic is pretty cool, although because the sonic team stressed him being cool, it sorta makes him not cool, shadow has that rebel thing thats going on that sorta works for him, (although i wonder, why does he have skates? if he's sonic's evil clone or whatever, why didnt his creator make him as fast or faster than sonic?), but a bloody third hedgehog? just, wow...

anyways, what im trying to get at, is instead of focusing on what really matters with sonic (the amazing sense of speed,) the ruin their 3d games with voice acting, shallow gameplay, retarded characters, and cheesy music. sonic creators try to make that cool/tough guy act happen for sonic, but they try so hard, it ends up being way to much "cool/tough guy", not enough speed and fun, which is ultimately why 3d sonics games are failing horribly (cept secret rings. they fixed the lame characters and the sense of speed thing there. however, bad voice acting and bad music are still present...)

sorry, thought id share my feelings. kinda random thoughts, but w/e...

Yeah he is way too cocky. "Yeah let's do it!" "Shara, lets go!" He needs to tone it down.

Sonic has been cocky from the start. The thing is in the genesis games he didn't talk. The cockiness has always been there though especially in the saturday morning cartoon series. Anyway, my main problem with Sonic and the Secret Rings (and it's a minor one) is that the voice overs and cut scenes harken back to the days of some poorly written saturday morning cartoon show. But Sonic isn't about story (although if it were done well I wouldn't mind a decent one), it's about speed, something that Sonic and the Secret Rings does quite well.

     Sonic was always supposed to be a 15 year old hedgehog.  He never used his brains and he always had to prove he was the "fastest thing alive" (yay advertising!).  When you take those elements and stick him in the middle of an interesting story, it fails.  So yeah, if the hedgehog would have little easter eggs like he did in the days of 2-D, then his image might be repaired.  Not likely, since 3-D models are much harder to add easter eggs to.

The game gets a lot better if you change the audio settings to Japanese. Sonic is still saying all of his retarded " I'm cool and I can prove it 'cause I'm all blurry fast and stuff, ya. i RoXoRs YoUr BoXoRs" shoot, but it's in Japanese! ^-^ And all the voice actors are much better.

I feel as though I've sinned by reading this... :?

I'm surprised people still buy Sonic games... I haven't enjoyed one since the first one. Especially since they gave him that stupid voice.

He always been, even when he really didnt talk in the sonics for the genesis, he still acted it. And then Sonic Adventures, when he started to talk, he started talking the part. IMO, its the whole aura of Sonic the Hedgehog. I kind of like it, its somewhat of a draw for me.
