I like These voices of Sonic Ryan Drummond(is ok ) Jason Griffith(is Fine ) Roger Graig Smith (Best and original) Ben Schwartz(Great and Amazing) Deven Mack(Cool and fine I guess) (Unknown Sonic Voice From Sonic frontier is awful)
@@TheRealHerbaSchmurba Roger’s a great voice actor as shown in his other roles. The problem wasn’t him, it was the voice direction and shitty scripts he was dealt with in the early 2010s. Sonic Boom and Frontiers show how good he actually is
It’s weird that Jason was actually worried he wasn’t doing a good job when recording Sonic X, then ironically basically being dubbed the voice of Sonic years later.
@@_SSCJThe potential was always there from Sonic X and as we saw,he really developed his voice perfectly around Sonic 06 and the Story Book series. Kind Hearted and Cocky with a dash of maturity around the last few games he voiced.
Wow, then his instincts were correct, since his Sonic X performance was awful. 😂 (I am kidding, sure his performance in X was bad but I don’t hate his Sonic, sorry if I came off as rude.)
@@kakawatez You are right! It seems like I mixed up the names (In my defense Nishimura confirmed it very too late in 2017 and people thought it was Keiko, huh) thanks for the correction
@@furynvm huh? Jaleel white's sonic is basically just urkel with less "did i do that"... I thought that would have been easy to understand what does being classic have to do with family matters?
Classic Sonic and Modern Sonic would sound conceptually pretty different. Also saying Jaleel White sounds like Urkel when talking about his VA performance as Sonic sounds pretty racist to me icl. Like are you just saying that because he is black?
Jason will always be my fav, but most of them do a pretty good job. I also really like Deven Mack too, hes sorta like a good balance between Ryan and Roger.
Voice 1 - Generic video game voice Voice 2 - Literal demon Meg Inglima - Female robot Jaleel White - Totally hip 90's mascot Sam Vincent - Double D from Ed, Edd n Eddy singing Martin Burke - Generic 90's anime voice Ryan Drummond - Cocky shonen protagonist Jason Griffith - Laid-back adventurer Roger Craig Smith - Wisecracking hero Ben Schwartz - Cheery goofball Deven Mack - Just a mix of Ryan Drummond and Roger Craig Smith
I feel like Mack was easily his own Sonic voice. Especially further into the show, his voice really starts to become unique to him. He definitely was probably initially directed to sound like RCS, but like all the Sonic actors he eventually grew into his own version
One of the best moments in my life was when Deven Mack crashed my twitch stream (Dust: An Elysian Tale), then I learned who he was, and then I got to hear him in Sonic Prime as soon as it came out. What a legend.
Ryan is the one who set the standard for how sonic should sound. Devin is doing a really good job he has alot of potential to be the best sonic for sure
I'm really impressed how Deven takes several of the previous Sonic voices and manages to meld the best of them into one voice. I grew up with Jaleel's but Deven might be the best
I wish we got more of Ryan's Sonic. He really was hitting his stride by Heroes, at a time where video game voice acting was wholly still developing. He brought this attitude to the role that I don't think has quite been matched.
If you want more of Ryan’s Sonic, there’s Sonic and Tails R by EmuEmi which not only brings back Ryan as Sonic, but a whole slew of other VAs from past and presents Sonic. Some examples are they got Jason Griffith as Shadow, Pete Capella as Silver, Lisa Ortiz as Amy, and even Mike Pollock as Eggman!
The same can be said for even Jason and Roger too. 06 and the Storybook Series really showed how Jason perfectly nailed the voice in a matter of 3-4 years. Roger always did a solid job voicing Sonic even in spite of the off putting scripts and what not. Still,all these Sonic game VAs did a really good job overall.
I met Jason Griffith recently at ComicCon and he said that they didn’t reach out to him to voice Sonic in the live-action movies, but he would play Sonic again if they asked him to
Jason Griffith is best for more serious themes but holy cow I didn’t realize how good both Ben and Devins voices are. Devin especially captures that bridge between Ryan, and Rodger very well
Jaleel: “I’m waiting” classic for those who loved watching the sonic episodes. Jason: “You’re too slow”, literally like come on. Genius. Ryan: Needs no quotes. He is literally the original sonic voice. He paved the way for all the VAs emulations after.
@@selassieaspen9940 only if you're under the age of 10 you find them funny, he's a great voice actor but his script and the writing in those games are awful (excluding frontiers and that was only because it was fixing up the damage every game before it after Black knight did)
honestly roger craig smith will always be my favourite VA of his, but Deven Mack actually just did so well it's insane I like it almost as much as Roger's
@@SupportTheLittleGuy that's totally fair dude, I was really into sonic around the time he was the main VA so that's probably what's guiding my opinion
Really? I noticed. The Prime cast all sound different from the Studiopolis cast. Though Deven is great, it was kinda sad that Roger isn’t voicing Sonic in Prime, and nor is Mike as Dr. Eggman.
fun fact: sonic's va in CD is masato nishimura, a designer on the game! he's also the one responsible for putting the "infinite fun" message in the game, lol. for a while it was incorrectly believed that sonic's va in the game was keiko utoku, the female singer in the japanese theme song "you can do anything"
5: Devin. He's not bad. 4: Ben Swarts. After 10 years of Sonic sounding like a 40 year old, he was a welcome change. Voice fit character and had the proper energy. 3. Jun'ichi Kanemaru. Fantastic actor. No complaints. Theres a reason hes been around for over 20 years. Hopefully he stays for 20 more. 2. Ryan Drummond. That dude set the gold standard for how Sonic should sound. If anyone told me he was their favorite Sonic, i would not argue at all. 1. Jason Griffith. Perfect, perfect, everything down to the last minute details. Best range, emotion, and voice. Made sonic sound a bit more mature without going overboard. In Unleashed, hes sounds more relaxed and in control. In Black Knight, it’s like Sonic was ripped straight out of the Adventure games and Jason fit that characterization just as masterfully as Ryan and Jun'ichi Kanemaru.
In what way does Ben Schwartz not sound like a 40 year old? He literally is a 40 year old (41 now) and just uses his regular everyday speaking voice in the movies
Voice 1 is revealed Masato Nishimura, level designer of Sonic CD and other games. he is also know as Majin/Mazin or CXX in the ranking screen. He is the one behind the "Fun is infinite" hidden message
@darlingyouidiot My friend, it's time to be brutally honest. Sonic is just plain garbage. A sad and pathetic copycat of the real deal, the iconic Mickey Mouse. Disney's mouse is a legend, and Sonic's attempts at imitation are nothing but laughable. So, let's put it to bed. Sonic is a worthless ripoff. Mickey Mouse is the real deal. No contest!!!

The voice slowly evolved with dna from the previous voice actor. It's almost like literal generations of a blood line slowly changing over time due to the other mates input Even here at 2:43: You can still hear the shadows of Jaleel Whites performance
Good compilation! Yeah...if I had to rank them, I definitely would go with: 1) Jason Griffith. Low-key biased since I grew up with his performance, but even after all these years and a bunch of Sonic media I still think he tops out. I love how he makes Sonic sound mature and kind but still can make him goofy and full of attitude as well. I really feel like he nails the vibes of Junichi's Sonic the most. 2) Ryan Drummond. I like how he makes Sonic sound like such a goofy, cocky teen?? He sounds funny to me in a really great way and he really nails the vibes of early 2000s Sonic. I also think his voice has only gotten better, considering Sonic and Tails R. 3) Deven Mack. I was surprised I liked his performance as much as I did, but it's really good and feels like if you blended Ryan and Roger's best qualities together. Been really enjoying the dude in Sonic Prime, kinda hoping he gets more work as the Blue Blur in the future. I also can't help but be partial to Martin Burke's voice, it's got this weird charm to it even though I like Jaleel too. Martin is still Classic Sonic in my head.
Actually Ryan hits the vibes of Jun’Ichi the most, not Jason. Ryan and Jun’Ichi sound similar compared to with Jason. When it comes to Sonic’s real personality, Ryan fits more. And also aren’t you going to go over Ben Schwartz in any way possible?
My favourites are Roger Craig Smith and Deven Mack. These guys are the best voice actors for Sonic to me here's a quick honourable mentions Jason Griffith Ryan Drummond Jaleel White (classic era only) Ben Schwartz Martin Bruke
I remember when Deven was just a small VA on newgrounds specifically in T.O.M.E. to think he'd get to voice Sonic is crazy and he does it so well! I saw a comment describing his Sonic as a mix of Roger and Ryan's take on Sonic and I think that's accurate, I feel a hint of Jaleel in there too! If Sega ever retires Roger's Sonic, I hope they have Deven fill the role, he takes the best aspects of those 3's take on Sonic and rolls it into one! 🎉 he did do a couple of shows before T.O.M.E too but not many. And only 2 were more than 1 episode. The TDI series being the one he started on and is still a part of this day. This dude is awesome! But Roger is my second favorite Sonic on here! His voice fits sonic so good in the games! It's perfect for the direction they took sonic and the writing. Especially in Frontiers where the existing cast was told to take their characters in a mature, grounded and natural way, which for Roger and Mike Pollock was very close to their natural voices. Even Cindy's Amy sounded closer to her nature voice in some lines! Aside from the one offs (so prior to Jaleel as they were one time uses just to fit a voice in) I think they all did great in portraying the way their version of Sonic was written! 🎉
Jason Griffith was peak sonic voice, I don’t think anyone has matched him since, though tbh Ben Schwartz is actual a close second, just the dialogue for him isn’t written like the games just yet
Ryan is a match for Jason. Jason is not as much of a match to Ryan from how amazing Ryan did in SA2/Heroes, even though Jason did great in Unleashed. Sorry but it’s true.
Yeah a lot of people associate the quality and performance of Roger's work with the writing and the dialogue which he did not control so it's hard to evaluate the voice on its own without letting the cringe lines impact what you think. In Frontiers the writing really shaped up and let him be more serious, making it thematically much more similar to the games that had Jason so it's easier to compare now.
Jaleel White (1993 - 2000) will always be my 1st legendary voice for Sonic The Hedgehog - 2nd favorite would be Jason Griffith (2003 - 2010). Honorable Voices of the fastest thing alive: Ryan Drummond (1998 - 2004) Roger Craig Smith (2010 - present) Ben Schwartz (2020 - here & now) Deven Mack - (2022 - present)
Ryan voice is my favorite, he has the energy and the smug tone Sonic has (in my opinion). But tbh, I like all the voices, even the older ones (nostalgia factor). Well... Minus the demonic indian one.

Tbh, Jason gets enough appreciation. More than half the fanbase prefers Jason over Ryan and Roger. I’m not saying he’s bad, but he’s overrated. Roger is under-appreciated, though. Idk why people still hate him after his excellent performance in Frontiers.
Sonic originally had a few voice samples in Sonic CD, with designer Masato Nishimura providing the voice. Sonic originally had a few voice samples in Sonic CD, with designer Masato Nishimura providing the voice.
Honestly Jaleel is canonically the voice of classic Sonic for me. I used to be a Griffith fanboy but lately Drummond's voice just feels perfect for modern Sonic.
Roger is the best for me. I grew up with Jason and was introduced to adventure afterwards and I loved both ot their voices. Martian Bruke was weird to me at first, but nowadays, I really enjoy it. Jaleel White was so familiar to me, then I realized it was because it was Steve fucking Urkel! So I was immediately attached to the voice. But then came Roger. My introduction to him was through Sonic Colors. At first I was wondering why they switched from Griffith to Roger. Griffith was doing such a great job. The shock of the switch really hit me when I played Mario and Sonic London Olympics after playing Winter Olympics. It was odd, but I liked it. Especially in the London Olympics. I realized he just needs good voice direction. In which we got in Sonic Boom, however those games were awful, then I watched the TV show and that’s when he truly became my favorite voice for sonic. Now I just needed a good mainline game with good voice direction. And my prayers were answered with Sonic Frontiers. While I prefer his boom voice more, frontiers shows us a more melancholic version of Roger’s Sonic and I absolutely love it. I think Roger has the most range out of all the Sonic voice actors aside from his Japanese VA. I hold Roger and Jun’ichi on the highest pedestals for Sonic’s voice Ben Schwartz is someone that I follewed for a while because of his work as randy cunningham. So when i heard that he’d be the voice for movie sonic, I was BEYOND excited. However, once I actually heard his voice, or rather, his dialogue in the movie, it got rather annoying sometimes. He has the right voice, just not the right dialogue. I also have this problem with Deven Mack. I KNOW Devin is an incredible voice actor, however I can’t listen to him say “Yaaaawn. That’s right, I yawned you eggman” and NOT physically recoil from cringe. His voice delivery is amazing, but that line of dialogue will never be good to me.
Man you can see the whole character development in Jason's voice clips. He started as a Ryan clone then slowly turns Sonic into a mature and calm while his cockiness only show up when he's in action. JG still goat

Roger Craig Smith & Ben Schwartz are the greatest & best voices of Sonic the Hedgehog of all time! Hands down! They both make Sonic sound awesome! Nothing & nobody will EVER change my mind!
Now why would someone do that. My mans voiced Ezio from Assassin's Creed, Batman, Captain America, and Chris Redfield. Also Captain Marvel too but nobody would care about that except for a nerd like me.
Easily up until Frontiers he sounded extremely wooden and flat, like he did'nt really care about the role as a result it made him sound real unnatural as Sonic. Contrasting that with Collen and she actually does feel natural as Tails, they both worked with the same crap dialogue and stories but I believed her as Tails MUUUUCH more than I ever did Roger Craig Smith as Sonic.

Hey there, you little Sega fan. Looks like you're a bit lost in your little fantasy world. Let me set the record straight: Disney is just flat-out better than Sega. Our characters are iconic, our movies are classics, and our entertainment is just plain better. Sega? Pah, they're a sad little imitator, nothing more. So stop wasting your time on that little hedgehog and join the real winners - Disney.

2. Ryan Drummond. That dude set the gold standard for how Sonic should sound. If anyone told me he was their favorite Sonic, i would not argue at all.
1. Jason Griffith. Perfect, perfect, everything down to the last minute details. Best range, emotion, and voice. Made sonic sound a bit more mature without going overboard. In Unleashed, hes sounds more relaxed and in control. In Black Knight, it’s like Sonic was ripped straight out of the Adventure games and Jason fit that characterization just as masterfully as Ryan and Jun'ichi Kanemaru.
You didn't even mention the others, Like Roger or Jaleel
9:38;Roger Craig Smith:"Huh. Maybe I trained you a little too well, K.O. You may know all my moves, but, you'll never outsmart the real...oh. Water?"
ben swarts 💀
In what way does Ben Schwartz not sound like a 40 year old? He literally is a 40 year old (41 now) and just uses his regular everyday speaking voice in the movies
I'm ngl, Jason griffith is overrated and Ryan is better in my opinion. Jason's voice sounds forced and barely shows any emotions
Gotta say Jaleel, Ryan, & Roger are my faves. They just capture him immensely, but Deven also isn’t that bad, pretty dang good
Jason is just the most uplifting imo, my favorite Sonic
Sonic has never had a bad voice actor
Jaleel White is my favorite Sonic. So much attitude and personality of the 90s.
unrelated but deven did a pretty good job emulating rodger’s version of the sonic voice they sound relatively the same.
I love every single one of them. They're all unic, they're all Sonic on their own way
I love them
I like Roger Craig Smith because he gave us one of the best quotes from sonic,"STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE SUCKS!!!"
Voice 1 is revealed Masato Nishimura, level designer of Sonic CD and other games. he is also know as Majin/Mazin or CXX in the ranking screen. He is the one behind the "Fun is infinite" hidden message
Ryan’s voice gives me instant dopamine. My Sonic.
@darlingyouidiot My friend, it's time to be brutally honest. Sonic is just plain garbage. A sad and pathetic copycat of the real deal, the iconic Mickey Mouse. Disney's mouse is a legend, and Sonic's attempts at imitation are nothing but laughable. So, let's put it to bed. Sonic is a worthless ripoff. Mickey Mouse is the real deal. No contest!!!

Sorry but Jason Griffith is the GOAT, he just gave sonic the vibe
4:29;Knights of the Round Table;"Sonic!!!"
He's fine but Ryan Drummond nailed it, he made him sound close to a teenager with a cocky attitude
@@Thewolfguys.cartoons2000But I like the Sword actions better!
@@destroyermcw626 what sword actions?
Black Knight@@Thewolfguys.cartoons2000
Love all of them but Ryan quotes were hilarious like Roger's. "You've turned into a big time Villain Doctor." 😂
"Oh, here's a fun one! Among Us"
Jason Griffith will forever be sonic and shadow for me. He was PERFECT for both
@breadandcircuses8127yeah, David Humphrey was so much better as Shadow.
Pick one of his roles and leave the other one. Ryan was Sonic and David Humphrey was Shadow.
Jason Griffin I miss Sonic's old voice 😢
I can't decide between Ryan Drummond or Jason Griffith
Ryan has more peps !
Pick Ryan! His Sonic voice is more balanced.
Ever heard of Jun'ichi Kanemaru? Sonic's Japanese voice actor. He's like the best traits of Ryan Drummond, and Jason Griffith in one.
I don't know why but I love Martian Bruke's voice so much lol
Especially the "Strange isn't it?!" He is amazing
Same!!!
Also Samuel Vincent's but I know exactly why I like his "Sonic" voice
Unpopular Opinion: Deven is the best Sonic VA. He delivers his lines extremely well and sounds like an actual teenager
Can’t we just admire the singing voice of Sam Vincent?
EXACTLY
Double Dee Sonic is a national treasure
(Also nice MM pfp)
Roger Craig Smith, Jason Griffith and Ryan Drummond were my favourites 💙💙💙
Ryan and Jason are the best IMO. Hard to pick a favorite there. Love em both.
The voice slowly evolved with dna from the previous voice actor. It's almost like literal generations of a blood line slowly changing over time due to the other mates input
Even here at 2:43: You can still hear the shadows of Jaleel Whites performance
Good compilation! Yeah...if I had to rank them, I definitely would go with:
1) Jason Griffith. Low-key biased since I grew up with his performance, but even after all these years and a bunch of Sonic media I still think he tops out. I love how he makes Sonic sound mature and kind but still can make him goofy and full of attitude as well. I really feel like he nails the vibes of Junichi's Sonic the most.
2) Ryan Drummond. I like how he makes Sonic sound like such a goofy, cocky teen?? He sounds funny to me in a really great way and he really nails the vibes of early 2000s Sonic. I also think his voice has only gotten better, considering Sonic and Tails R.
3) Deven Mack. I was surprised I liked his performance as much as I did, but it's really good and feels like if you blended Ryan and Roger's best qualities together. Been really enjoying the dude in Sonic Prime, kinda hoping he gets more work as the Blue Blur in the future.
I also can't help but be partial to Martin Burke's voice, it's got this weird charm to it even though I like Jaleel too. Martin is still Classic Sonic in my head.
How about Ben Schwartz?
Also I think Ryan sounds closer to Jun’Ichi than Jason tbh.
Actually Ryan hits the vibes of Jun’Ichi the most, not Jason. Ryan and Jun’Ichi sound similar compared to with Jason. When it comes to Sonic’s real personality, Ryan fits more.
And also aren’t you going to go over Ben Schwartz in any way possible?
My favourites are Roger Craig Smith and Deven Mack. These guys are the best voice actors for Sonic to me here's a quick honourable mentions
Jason Griffith
Ryan Drummond
Jaleel White (classic era only)
Ben Schwartz
Martin Bruke
I remember when Deven was just a small VA on newgrounds specifically in T.O.M.E. to think he'd get to voice Sonic is crazy and he does it so well! I saw a comment describing his Sonic as a mix of Roger and Ryan's take on Sonic and I think that's accurate, I feel a hint of Jaleel in there too! If Sega ever retires Roger's Sonic, I hope they have Deven fill the role, he takes the best aspects of those 3's take on Sonic and rolls it into one! 🎉 he did do a couple of shows before T.O.M.E too but not many. And only 2 were more than 1 episode. The TDI series being the one he started on and is still a part of this day. This dude is awesome! But Roger is my second favorite Sonic on here! His voice fits sonic so good in the games! It's perfect for the direction they took sonic and the writing. Especially in Frontiers where the existing cast was told to take their characters in a mature, grounded and natural way, which for Roger and Mike Pollock was very close to their natural voices. Even Cindy's Amy sounded closer to her nature voice in some lines! Aside from the one offs (so prior to Jaleel as they were one time uses just to fit a voice in) I think they all did great in portraying the way their version of Sonic was written! 🎉
Yes, I agree he’s the spiritual successor to all three, Ben is good but he doesn’t have the range like deven, and deven keeps it sounding fresh.
I honestly love Deven Mack’s Sonic Prime voice so much
Jason Griffith was peak sonic voice, I don’t think anyone has matched him since, though tbh Ben Schwartz is actual a close second, just the dialogue for him isn’t written like the games just yet
Ryan is a match for Jason. Jason is not as much of a match to Ryan from how amazing Ryan did in SA2/Heroes, even though Jason did great in Unleashed. Sorry but it’s true.
5:19 ahh here’s a fUn OnE. AMUGUS.
I love how sonic sounds more and more mature with each voice. Roger's my favorite, btw.
Why does the 3rd one sound like hes gonna kill us 💀0:25
he sounds like one of the evil little brothers from the old disney channel shows. like lizzie maguires lil brother.
3:33 the greatest voice actor it’s Jason Griffith🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
It’s always Jason Griffith… 😒
Deven is honestly rlly good
Too good!
0:14 HE SOUNDS LIKE THE GUMMY BEAR IM CRYING
Laughable
holy shit yeah😂 that gives me flashbacks man.
FR THO
for Sonic vibes: Ryan ,Ben, Deven.
For wise knowledge hero: Jason and Roger.
Leo:"5:49"
I think Ryan’s more on the mature side. Movie sonic and prime sonic are practically the same person
Jaleel white walked and gave sonic his personality so everyone after him can run. Dont @me.
Deven mack is like a mix of Jason and Roger. He does it well.
He’s a mix of Ryan and Roger. I don’t get any Jason vibes from his performance.
For me Roger became my favorite after frontiers I just like how fluid his lines are now. Ryan being right up there too I just love his performance.
I love hearing Roger in the Twitter Takeovers, I get the feeling he gets more chances to really "emote" with the character in them
Yeah a lot of people associate the quality and performance of Roger's work with the writing and the dialogue which he did not control so it's hard to evaluate the voice on its own without letting the cringe lines impact what you think. In Frontiers the writing really shaped up and let him be more serious, making it thematically much more similar to the games that had Jason so it's easier to compare now.
3:06 -Famous Last Words
Jaleel White (1993 - 2000) will always be my 1st legendary voice for Sonic The Hedgehog -
2nd favorite would be Jason Griffith (2003 - 2010).
Honorable Voices of the fastest thing alive:
Ryan Drummond (1998 - 2004)
Roger Craig Smith (2010 - present)
Ben Schwartz (2020 - here & now)
Deven Mack - (2022 - present)
agreed
Ryan voice is my favorite, he has the energy and the smug tone Sonic has (in my opinion). But tbh, I like all the voices, even the older ones (nostalgia factor). Well... Minus the demonic indian one.
Jason, roger and jaleel are my fav sonic voices of all time
And Ryan Drummond too, right?
@@JustAnAverageSonicFanyou right I forgot about Ryan he’s up there in my top 5
Roger Craig Smith will always be sonic in my heart
i will always love his voice in sonic ova he’s so silly 😭
His OVA voice is so bland and underwhelming…Jaleel is so much better.
My favorite is still Jason, he just hits that sweet spot. Deven also nailed it.
Agreed!
@@vdez836My friend, it's time to be brutally honest. Sonic is just plain garbage. A sad and pathetic copycat of the real deal, the iconic Mickey Mouse. Disney's mouse is a legend, and Sonic's attempts at imitation are nothing but laughable. So, let's put it to bed. Sonic is a worthless ripoff. Mickey Mouse is the real deal. No contest!!!!!!!!

0:37 sonic inner Bart Simpson 😂😂😂😂
While I love Jaleel and Ryan forever, I do wish we appreciated Jason a little more while we had him. We were too cruel, I feel
Same with roger
Tbh, Jason gets enough appreciation. More than half the fanbase prefers Jason over Ryan and Roger. I’m not saying he’s bad, but he’s overrated. Roger is under-appreciated, though. Idk why people still hate him after his excellent performance in Frontiers.
Sonic originally had a few voice samples in Sonic CD, with designer Masato Nishimura providing the voice. Sonic originally had a few voice samples in Sonic CD, with designer Masato Nishimura providing the voice.
Why did you said that twice 💀
I grew up to Ryan’s voice but Roger seems the most fitting
There's a reason why roger's stuck around.
Yeah cause we're in 2023, bud. We gotta get used to it
Honestly Jaleel is canonically the voice of classic Sonic for me. I used to be a Griffith fanboy but lately Drummond's voice just feels perfect for modern Sonic.
Ryan Drummond is the GOAT, followed by Roger Craig Smith
Based comment, though I’d say he’s followed by Ben Schwartz over Roger tbh.
Roger is the best for me. I grew up with Jason and was introduced to adventure afterwards and I loved both ot their voices. Martian Bruke was weird to me at first, but nowadays, I really enjoy it. Jaleel White was so familiar to me, then I realized it was because it was Steve fucking Urkel! So I was immediately attached to the voice. But then came Roger. My introduction to him was through Sonic Colors. At first I was wondering why they switched from Griffith to Roger. Griffith was doing such a great job. The shock of the switch really hit me when I played Mario and Sonic London Olympics after playing Winter Olympics. It was odd, but I liked it. Especially in the London Olympics. I realized he just needs good voice direction. In which we got in Sonic Boom, however those games were awful, then I watched the TV show and that’s when he truly became my favorite voice for sonic. Now I just needed a good mainline game with good voice direction. And my prayers were answered with Sonic Frontiers. While I prefer his boom voice more, frontiers shows us a more melancholic version of Roger’s Sonic and I absolutely love it. I think Roger has the most range out of all the Sonic voice actors aside from his Japanese VA. I hold Roger and Jun’ichi on the highest pedestals for Sonic’s voice
Ben Schwartz is someone that I follewed for a while because of his work as randy cunningham. So when i heard that he’d be the voice for movie sonic, I was BEYOND excited. However, once I actually heard his voice, or rather, his dialogue in the movie, it got rather annoying sometimes. He has the right voice, just not the right dialogue. I also have this problem with Deven Mack. I KNOW Devin is an incredible voice actor, however I can’t listen to him say “Yaaaawn. That’s right, I yawned you eggman” and NOT physically recoil from cringe. His voice delivery is amazing, but that line of dialogue will never be good to me.
What about Ryan Drummond?
Man you can see the whole character development in Jason's voice clips. He started as a Ryan clone then slowly turns Sonic into a mature and calm while his cockiness only show up when he's in action. JG still goat
Ryan Drummond the best video game Sonic voice hands down.
I always loved Martin Burke's Sonic, wish they used him as fallback in Generations when Jaleel didn't work out
7:07 what the hell?
I really like how much Jason improved at Sonic’s voice. Sonic X sounded a bit weird. But he really nailed it with Unleashed and The Black Knight.
My friend, it's time to be brutally honest. Sonic is just plain garbage. A sad and pathetic copycat of the real deal, the iconic Mickey Mouse. Disney's mouse is a legend, and Sonic's attempts at imitation are nothing but laughable. So, let's put it to bed. Sonic is a worthless ripoff. Mickey Mouse is the real deal. No contest.!!!!

Jason Griffith is the best sonic voice actor
Back here 5 months later and he is still the best
Nah, Ryan is the best.
9 months later and i still like jason and roger.
0:09 fun fact, the voice actor of Sonic in Sonic CD is actually Masato Nishimura, i know he’s not that well known, but we gotta give him some credit for being the first Sonic Game Voice actor. (Also i don’t think its Naoto oshima)

@@Sammy-34079ok but no one really care”s about what you think of Sonic Mickey Mouse fan
Roger Craig Smith & Ben Schwartz are the greatest & best voices of Sonic the Hedgehog of all time! Hands down! They both make Sonic sound awesome! Nothing & nobody will EVER change my mind!
Fun fact roger and ben are very close friends in reality.
@@Alolino1605 That’s awesome! 😃🤩
Roger should be in the 3rd movie for like a cameo
Deven Mack is really great too
@@alejandrasanchez3022 No he’s not! He’s awful! Nothing compared to Roger, Ben, Jason, & Ryan!
Roger Craig Smith is legendary prove me wrong.
Edit: this was just my opinion everybody. I'm sorry if everyone didn't agree.
m
Now why would someone do that. My mans voiced Ezio from Assassin's Creed, Batman, Captain America, and Chris Redfield. Also Captain Marvel too but nobody would care about that except for a nerd like me.
@@chocov1233 I never knew he voiced all those guys!
Nuh uh
Easily up until Frontiers he sounded extremely wooden and flat, like he did'nt really care about the role as a result it made him sound real unnatural as Sonic. Contrasting that with Collen and she actually does feel natural as Tails, they both worked with the same crap dialogue and stories but I believed her as Tails MUUUUCH more than I ever did Roger Craig Smith as Sonic.
Ryan Drummond and Jason Griffith are the goats and I refuse to choose who is better.
Jaleel White playing Sonic The Hedgehog in the 90's cartoons was epic

Hey there, you little Sega fan. Looks like you're a bit lost in your little fantasy world. Let me set the record straight: Disney is just flat-out better than Sega. Our characters are iconic, our movies are classics, and our entertainment is just plain better. Sega? Pah, they're a sad little imitator, nothing more. So stop wasting your time on that little hedgehog and join the real winners - Disney.
