How so? I think Classic Sonic's shoes look a bit cheap by comparison to his Modern look. Sonic's shoes now have those gray soles on the bottom, making them look like.. real shoes. They also have a metallic sheen to them in certain games. I think that's a nice effect.
Sonic's leaner and less chubby, and his SA-style grin, which, while hated by some, I think exudes a level of cockiness and attitude that fits his character perfectly. I love the SA1 teaser poster of Sonic's grinning face on a black background.
Both characters are fine, Classic Sonic was my introduction to the franchise, and I adored him growing up. But once Sonic Adventure came along, I fell in love with Modern Sonic. He just seems cooler and tougher to me. (When he's not talking anyway.)
The green eyes.. eh, I don't really care either way about them. I don't HATE them, but I don't like them all that much either. I think they were a unnecessary change.
