Sonic the Hedgehog

I've seen many sonic fans trying to say this game is not bad, that it's an underrated sonic game. NO! No, it's not. This game is a rush, and heavily unfinished. The game's glitches and bugs are not funny, they are the type that makes the game irritating to play. You'll be fighting the camera more than the actual enemies in the game. Such as Shadow's boss fight with Silver. The story is both confusing and stupid. They did characters like Blaze, my favorite Sonic character completely dirty. Elise is a terrible character, one of the worst in the franchise. The whole thing with Elise's tears releasing Eblise is one of the dumbest things in the whole story. This game is so bad, I rather play Sonic Forces. The game is lack luster and is too short, at least with that game I can enjoy it better than this mess.

Sonic The Hedgehog, infamously known as Sonic 06, is the worst Sonic game ever made. I'll give at this, the soundtrack is well made especially with the songs in the end credits. But it doesn't really matter since everything else came out a disgrace both as a game and to the franchise. The story is unengaging and tests the relationship of Sonic and Elise in the most horrible kind of way. Despite the designs on the cutscenes at the beginning and the end are nice, the gaming graphics are weak. And the characters are unappealing that feels like a slap in the face to the ones we know. But then comes the biggest problem of them all. The gameplay is absolutely terrible. Not just the fact we barely gotten anything from the game other than just a story. But the game glitches out that makes the game look like it takes forever to finish. Especially when we get to the first level. So in the end, this is a very huge low for the Sonic The Hedgehog franchise. And for how horrendous it turned out to be, I wouldn't even recommend this to Sonic fans but to listen to the soundtrack. At least it's better than to waste your time with the gameplay that gave us no strategy at all.

Sonic The Hedgehog 2006 promised to be the milestone 15th Anniversary of Sonic the Hedgehog franchise. The game promised to improve a lot of the mechanical limitation of previous Sonic 3D series but instead it proved to be a fatally broken game that was poorly conceived, overly rushed, bugged beyond comprehension and prove to be the most frustrating and most unsatisfying game to play both of the Sonic the Hedgehog series. I can only give a brief rundown of just how broken the game because someone could easily write a full book of just how bad it really is.

The game's physics are sloppy, Sonic has gone from being the fastest thing alive to being slightly faster than Shadow the Hedgehog. I think Shadow might even be faster in this game than Sonic is. This is especially obvious when Sonic is carrying the Princess which you will be doing plenty of in this game. The Homing attack is equally bad which slows you down more than speeds you up and has pauses you in mid air. So rather than Sonic continuing to each enemy in a ball he uncurls in mid air and one wrong move will send you careening off your course and to your death.

All thought Sonic lacks much of his speed from previous games he still can get pretty fast. But even when you do manage to get enough speed there's always something in your way to instantly slow you down. When Sonic slows down he doesn't just slow down he gets knocked back on his ass. This is something seen in most Mario games of the present era but why is this happening to Sonic? This makes timed missions more hard than they should be.

The control scheme is extremely unstable, when you get Sonic running at high speeds along a narrow ramp you probably will go flying off into a bottomless pit, it's aggravating! The Camera will probably be your worst enemy in this game as it's never where you want it to be.

Besides the game's awful game mechanics we were also treated to a half-assed story line of Sonic falling in love with a human girl. Yeah, what? Now Sega deserves a lot of the blame for pushing this game for a quick Christmas time release, but Sonic Team is still equally to blame. Sonic Team is the one who designed the game with the most ridiculous levels including the Mach Speed Levels where you run with little to no control at a million miles per hour, wrote the dumbest scenario in any video game ever. This game deserves the same fate as ET for the Atari, be buried forever.

After displaying greatness in the fourth generation and sixth generation of video games, the game makers of the Sonic franchise went on to create a Sonic game for the seventh generation. Bizarrely, they used a title that was used by an early 1990s Sega game. Well, it's amazing that the new game didn't cause any confusion.

Although this is just another 3d Sonic game, the game also marked the beginning when certain things are changed forever. And that change certainly isn't a favorable one.

When Tails started speaking in early Sonic TV series and games, his speaking role was done by young boys. It's really traditional and best to use boys to play boys to reflect them. But when Sega took the absurd step in using old bimbos to be Tails, it was never the same. And that absurdity started in this rubbish. Once a bimbo took over, more bimbos took over to this day.

As a gamer who adores Tails, it's really disheartening to know that Tails, who is a boy, will have his speaking role done by undesirables who aren't boys seemingly to no end. Oh Sega, why are you doing this?

The first Sonic game dates back to the early 1990s or perhaps the late 1980s. The game was such a hit that it spawned numerous sequels and other installments. While a lot of Sonic's games were well received, he also had some bad times. And this game which happens to share the same title as the first game was one of Sonic's bad times. The developers were in a rush to release the game on a certain holiday that they didn't have time to thoroughly inspect the game for flaws.

But the fact that the game has programming issues is only one of the things that I find unfavorable. This game also marked the beginning were sluts took over providing the words of Tails. The sluts continue to do so to this day. When will Tails go back to the boys where he belongs? Boys are best for him because Tails is a boy. I hope the developers understand that.
