He is basing it off of the dreaded comments sections of articles. And for many he does hit the nail on the head with the ridiculous nature of those who comment and complain on those articles and forums.
I think the sonic thing was just a joke. And a shot at how far the series has fallen since the glory days. That and him being the mario fan he is.

I know it was a joke, don't worry.
Sonic's been picking himself back up lately at least.

I feel like I should just put "you guys know Sonic Generations was great, right?" in my signature. That way I don't have to keep saying it in threads all time.

Great or not, it would be more of the exception than the norm.
Either way, I am not much of a fan of platformers, so am just basing that off of reception not from personal experience.

As someone who reads the same stuff daily that he likely does (including comments), I just don't see him "hitting the nail on the head" at all as regards this arbitrary "hierarchy." He seems to just be restating a list of existing gamer tropes and organizing them with something looking like (but not really being) a carefully thought out hierarchy.
i don't know - I guess in my experience with gamers in real life/at cons and with gamers on forums/comment sections I just don't see this same kind of stratification.
