Sonic Rings Series - DanTDM

The Sonic Rings series takes a look at some Sonic superfans and their memories of the blue blur over the past 30 years.
Our next special guest is DanTDM: a variety content creator and dear friend of Sonic's, here to show off his favorite Sonic level of all time!

I miss when Dan was a Sonic fan, im so glad he's back.

[@ytbc_j13]

Dan's always mentioned how Sonic was one of his favourite game franchises growing up, but I didn't expect him to be here! It's a wonderful surprise seeing a childhood icon talk about his own childhood icons.

I never watch any of his videos but just to see him on here made me feel all warm and fuzzy and I forgot he is a Sonic fan. Not to mention he's the first British person on this series as well, so I'm happy about itthat. :D [btw I'm british]

[@MetallicMadGlitch]

Seeing Dan on here just puts a smile on my face, like he said, he's been with Sonic ever since he was young, and so have i, Dan has played a big part in both my childhood and my day to day life, aswell as Sonic himself, i may have not been there since the very begining so im not a "True fan" acording to all the people who were there day 1 of Sonic's existance, but i'm still a fan who can pick up a game, play and enjoy it, thanks to SEGA, for making my life fun, here's to 30 Year's of Sonic.
