Sonic 2006

[Shulk 8,623]

I haven't played Sonic '06, but I watched the Game Grumps' playthrough of it, which went towards the end of Silver's story (Jon had to leave Grumps for his own personal reasons, so they had to cut it short there), and from that 100+ playthrough, I can easily say this is one of the worst games of all time, right up there with Final Fantasy XII and Superman 64. The game is completely irredeemable, with almost NO good points. The only decent thing was the final boss music, everything else sucked.

after watching this and found out about all the stuff that they where going to put in it and the whole rushed thing, i can't help but feel sad about the title. i mean if it had all of that stuff and wasn't rushed then maybe it could have been something great, the opposite of what where saying now about it, but still thats a maybe. but i still do believe it would have been good or at lest at the border of great, like some other sonic games. though even if they remade the game and put all the stuff in it and fixed everything, people will still hate it going off of old emotions from it, *sigh* but all i ask of you guys is to just have a moment of silence for the big "what if" game that ever was ......................................... oh and that Wii port of the game still went on in development and the title is now known as sonic and the secret rings....think about it. and share this with everybody, especially with game grumps and JohnTron

If it was like that, it probably still would've been bad due to the really horrible storyline, in all honesty. Of course, I hate the Sonic franchise in general, so it could just be that.

 

Also, why especially the Grumps?

the entire ost was good imo, and if it was like modern sonic in generations with much better level design and a story without so many plotholes or elise, this could have been fantastic. this game was going to go for a more cinematic and epic approach with the atmosphere and story, and it could have succeded. it had some redeemable points, like the concept(and the entire final boss fight was awesome). also ff12 with superman 64? i dont like the game much either but my god

Okay, yeah, they don't really compare well. Just listing games I hate. As for the OST, I couldn't really hear it in the playthrough I watched because the guys were too busy talking and laughing at every single glitch they got.

This where I come in: Shadow represents the Past, Sonic represents the Present, and Silver represents the Future. Shadow released Mephiles and that's where Mephiles came to in the story. After meeting Silver, Shadow thought that it would stop him in the present if he sealed him. It didn't...It created a Time Paradox revolving around him releasing and sealing Mephiles. Then Sonic's story, Elise is the holder of the Iblis, the other part of Mephiles. Since he couldn't get close to Elise, he tried to kill Sonic through Silver, which didn't work. That's when he killed Sonic in the last story. Then Silver's story, although I am still trying to wrap my head around this one, this is what I got. At that time, Mephiles wasn't apart of that timeline, so the Iblis was the only one ruining the world. It could've been also that the Iblis was too enraged to control. That's why he needed to form with the Iblis at a weak state. Since they didn't know about Mephiles being the trigger, they tried to stop the Iblis in their time by trying to seal him in another Dimension. So Silver's story is kind of a Sideline story. But this is what it all comes down to: A Time Paradox that leads to one fate...The End of Time....And also, sorry dude, but I feel it's both with Sega and Fans of why this game came out horrible to most....The fans want Sonic Adventure 3 so badly, it wouldn't surprise me that it's them to that made the game the way it is...I mean, come on! They have control over SEGA!!!! Also about Elise...Sonic story was about protecting Elise, if anybody says that she was in the way misses the main objective of his story....

I know that's not the only reason, the glitches made for a lot of their most memorable moments though.

like i said people will still hat it off of old emotions, but thats probably why too. the music is the only good thing about it and the graphics, and they should know about this because they keep saying "was this rushed" and all of that stuff.

and metal sonic was going to be in it and was going to have a big importance to the story so this could mean that it was going to have a different story all together, i mean all the trailers before the very bad bad stuff happen to it had no reveal to the story, as far as we know it could have been like every other sonic game: defeat eggman, or something like that(actually it reminds me of a sonic the hedgehog movie in 1999 if metal and Elise where in it). so what happen in sega for the story was like someone forgetting about having a science fair tomorrow and not have anything, so what they did was get a cup and put dirt in it. so if they had more time i feel the story would have been better

And it was... So they don't really need to know if they knew that beforehand.

But I still love it because it is fun...I haven't came across any glitches and have played already 4 times....I think I can see where the switched Metal Sonic with Mephiles...I still think it was a good game...If they had more time to work on the story, it would've been better...

06's story was meh. I like a serious Sonic story, but 06 was rather sloppy. The gameplay was awful til I learned how to use the controls, but they were still over all bad. I encountered some glitches like everyone else, but at least 96% of them werent a big deal and didnt kill me so I ignored them for the most part.
