Absolutely, but it’s still weird to highlight a character’s immense speed by showing him traveling just under a speed record that’s been broken.
Some games have alleged he’ll travel at speeds exceeding 1,000 MPH, while others say exceeding 2,000 MPH is no problem.
Now, no one is stating this is Sonic’s top speed quite yet, but it’s worth mentioning past video games have brought up that he is much faster than the speed of sound.
