That's just when they're underwater. The rest of the time, it's an easy win for the blue blur. Besides, even if they are underwater, Sonic will most likely be able to quickly escape it and force Mario to fight on a turf where Sonic has the advantage.

How do we know the Bible isn't just one big tall tale? All that editing and modification over the millenia probably distorted most of the records of what happened before. It wouldn't be the first time such a thing has happened, nor even the hundredth time. Also, there are transitions between humans and apes that have been found. Ever heard of Lucy?

It's not the remains of the sperm tail, you dummy. The sperm's entire tail falls off five whole days before the embryo begins developing in the uterus.

Tails all the way. Not only is he as fast as Sonic, but he has an enormous IQ, enough to build pretty much any kind of machine at all. I mean, he's built supersonic airplanes, rocket ships, large mechas, a universal translator, a multi-GB pocket computer, forcefield generator, and more. Tails would just stomp on Luigi with one of his robots' feet. Sure, Luigi can use all of the powerups that Mario can, but without powerupsall he can do is jump. He's not even strong enough to break bricks without using his super-form. As Manichima put it, "Unlike Luigi, Tails doesn't need the powerups to kick butt." Plus, Tails can FREAKIN' FLY.

FASTER THAN 700 MPH.

WHILE CARRYING A LARGE GUN.

Beat that, Luigi.

Liar? You're the liar. Look it up on Wikipedia. Whatever website you got those insanely unrealistic statistics from, they are the liars.

(As for "what kind of crap I've been on," it's called REASON. Ever heard of it?

I accept your apology, and I'm glad that you understand that they're about equal. As a matter of fact, I realized a while ago that neither one can win the fight. Why? Because in the Mario universe, strength always beats speed, whereas speed always beats strength in the Sonic universe. When a fast character from the Sonic universe and a strong character from the Mario universe fight, neither can win!

Sonic? For little children? It appears I am forced to repeat the statistic that the average Sonic game purchaser is over 12.

He already has. Where have you been for the last 20 years? As for who's the better fighter, I think this will settle that once and for all:

To repeat the old 90's phrase, "Sega does what Nintendon't!"

Well, Mario's name starts with an M, which means he's a Moron. And I agree that Mario will probably be more well-known for a looooong time, Sonic is a better series overall, even if it's less popular.
