Sonic's Logo

Shit, I had somehow never noticed the slanted o and cee before...and I hate it. A lot.

Thanks for ruining the Sonic logo for me, OP. :p

Damn, even Shadow has the slanted O.

The best things about the logos was that while the basic font stayed the same, everything around it alluded to the game itself. 3D Blast with the 3D lettering, Sonic Adventure 2 showcasing the light and dark sides of the story, Heroes showcasing the 3 team system, Sonic Rush Adventure with the compass signifying sea exploration, Sonic Unleashed with the werehog scratch.

For a while in the 00's Sonic's logo would be in Japanese in Japan.

Also kind of the weirdest early one:

Somehow I've never appreciated the typeface until that. Thanks for this thread.

I like that the O reminds me of Sonic either charging up, or zooming by as a ball.

The other week there was a topic about Mario Kart's 'boring' logo, but with all the Sonic excitement going on, and people continually asking 'is/was Sonic good?', I think one thing we can give Sega kudos on: Sonic's logo is timeless/

Yeah, the logo always seems to fit just right no matter what the game.
