    Haha, that was pretty funny, but touched on before by other people, its not really a product you'd link to Sonic, asides from the very loose link of a "fast" comparison engine

    But, "no more running around" ? Why would Sonic be happy about that? XD

    I kinda like how he runs past the "Progressive" logo at the end, ala Sega Genesis style, Now someone just needs to record it properly

    This was a surprisingly great commercial, I don't like the normal Progressive commercials and am not the biggest fan of modern sonic, but this was really well done. Sonic didn't talk and moved fast like he should, it was subtle but fun, and hearing Sonic 3 Invincibility music was great.

    I just noticed that the sound quality on the Invincibility and 1-Up BGM sounds a little... Muffled? What, did Sega just give them MP3 copies of those songs from YouTube?

    Yeah, I posted on Flos facebook wall to post the Sonic commercial and she actually replied. Awesome to see the commercial in full quality.

    Same here! only I went to progressive's official facebook instead.

    Anyways, Progressive released the commecrial officially now. Make sure to thumbs-up them for their effort too even though sonic wrecks stole their thunder.

    ...Really? I honestly don't get why so many are taking this as a sign that SEGA is desperate and/or Sonic is going downhill (if not more to them). I mean, Mario's been in a Got Milk advertisement, and even Link's been in Mirinda commercial. Plus Sonic has done this in the past. So, what's the problem? But then again, some probably have their mind set that anything relating to the 3D Sonic games is automatically bad, even with Generations and Colors out and all...Oh well.

    I wouldn't worry, most of the comments share the same opinion as we do.

    TBD
    On the topic of Sonic commercials (since I don't think what I'm about to post needs its own topic), I just saw Sonic in a Netflix commercial. It's an ad for kids' movies on Netflix, and when they're scrolling through the list of characters on the TV screen, Sonic's American artwork appears on the last row.

    So, there you go. Sonic appears in two commercials that aren't about a Sonic game this year. =P
