It is one thing to call a game bad based on reviews or word of mouth, it’s quite another to play the whole damn thing moment for agonizing moment, and see the broken enterprise laid bare before you. Sonic the Hedgehog used to be one of the gaming industry's biggest icons, on par with Mario or Pac-Man. That was until, 3D happened. Sonic's early forays into the third dimension were decent enough, but games like Sonic R, and Sonic Heroes eroded the brand so far into the ground that Sega attempted to start over when the new consoles came out in 2006. Sonic the Hedgehog for the Xbox 360 and PS3 (colloquially known as Sonic ’06) is the worst game a major franchise has ever produced. How did a game that was supposed to be a fresh start for a beleaguered series end up being the worst one of its kind?
The popular Sega franchise, Sonic the Hedgehog, has been really successful in recent years, forging paths for the recent upcoming titles.
These sales surged by 150 million compared to last year.
we need a new sonic pinball, with boss battles / hidden stages / 1 sec load times
Definitely agreed. I loved Sonic Spinball back on Genesis. I want a new Mean Bean Machine too, while we're at it!
Still need to check out Frontiers at some point. Just waiting on a really good Steam sale for it.
Elise hasn't been forgotten, even after her infamous debut in Sonic '06.
