Sonic was once a gaming icon who has since fallen into infamy with a string of poorly designed games. While he's trying to make a comeback, like most ailing stars...he turns to insurance commercials.

    People don't seem to realize how good the last couple of games Sonic had were.

    And to those saying, "Why Sonic need car insurance!?" Don't forget he owns a car, and he could possibly be getting some insurance for Tails' Tornado, it crashes and burns every other game, amirite?

    That was cute. Though they should have used classic sonic instead.

    Also last I checked, Generations, colors and the daytime levels of Unleashed where all well received by fans and critics alike. The whole Sonic sucks thing died out years ago, time to get with the times =/

    the title of this is written as if this is a bad thing...that was a great commercial. by far the best Progressive commercial ever made, one of the best overall commercials ive seen, at least in a long time. the best Geico commercial to date is still the one with R Lee Ermey, but if they use a video game icon too, that might change for me.

    anything that promotes video games in the mainstream media like this is a good thing.
