    Big woop.

    Let's be honest, the guy doesn't strike me as someone who is full of new, exciting and innovative ideas personally.

    I think you are mixing him up with Yuji Naka who is often mistakenly credited as being the creator of Sonic, he was only the programmer on the games until the later 3D iterations. This guy here is the real deal and has been responsible for not just Sonic but a lot of Sega's most original and great games, such as Nights.
