In 2011, Sonic Adventure DX arrived on Steam, and Sonic Adventure 2 Battle did the same the following year. The first is a growing community of Sonic modders. That fan demand has only gotten louder and more frequent since then, but there are two major differences. Even in 2010, when I got to raise Chao for the first time, I remember seeing fans asking for Sonic Team to bring back the Chao Gardens. My first ever opinion piece for Sonic Stadium is about a topic that has been discussed in the Sonic community for some time. Now, a decade later, I think it’s time that Sonic Team decided to bring that back. It didn’t take long before I discovered that raising these cute, adorable Chao is fun and addictive. I wanted to get all the game’s emblems, only to learn that doing so meant that I had to go raise these little creatures that are called Chao, enter them in races and Karate tournaments, and get some emblems there. It was also the year that I got Sonic Adventure 2: Battle on the Gamecube. When I was 18, it was in 2010 and I had yet to become a Sonic news writer.
