i have a few reasons why i love this game, hear me out. 1) the character models: i feel that the characters look more mature and less cartoon-y and childish here. they look like heroes who are out here saving princesses from villains and stopping mass destruction, and i dig it. 2) the nostalgia: i played this game for the first time when i was 4 years old and it was a great way to bond with my dad. sure, it had its flaws, but so did almost every game on the xbox 360, and i just appreciated running around super fast and following the crazy story. 3) the soundtrack: his world is easily my favourite song from any sonic game, well, ever. not to mention that the music during the boss battles got me pumped! the music single-handedly saved this game and i will die on that hill.

@@kirin1230Besides, didn't 06 have actual good level design (at least most of the time)... Just that the bugs and controls make it hard to see said good level design... But yeah, from what I've seen of 06, it does seem to have some pretty bad "game design", but the level design is apparently good enough as to where a remake could actually be genuinely good. They'd just have to rewrite some of the story, obviously while leaving it intact. The whole Elise issue could probably be changed so that they have a more platonic relationship. They could still have become closs enough friends for her to cry when Sonic died... Just get rid of the kiss, because that's just weird. The story probably wouldn't ever be "perfect" since they'd still need to keep it intact, but perhaps some polish could make it a fair bit better. Aswell as adding actual good voice acting (Though, a remake would most likely make them redo the voice acting anyways... Besides, voice actors have gotten much better since then, so improvements to the voice acting would probably just be par for the course). Though, I'm not a game developer or anything, so do take what I say with a grain of salt, I'm well aware that it's not quite that simple. What I mean is just that there are a lot of things that a remake could improve upon. Besides, I'd imagine that a lot of people would be interested in trying a version of a game that is notorious for being shitty, that's actually genuinely enjoyable. Anyhow, I hope you have an amazing day!

“A lot can really be learned from this game. It has it all: weird camera, uncontrollable speed, really slow parts, and even frequent glitches to keep things spicy! The plentiful loading screens have taught me the meaning of true patience, and coupled with the near constant dying for unavoidable (and often unpredictable) reasons, I am able to really contemplate my own mortality, and how life is just a loading screen to run towards inevitable death. Because we will all die, it's only a matter of time till we get hit by an off screen projectile, trapped in a loop of injury, or by falling through the floor. Truly, Sonic '06 is all the evidence one needs to see that video games have transcended their lowly beginnings to become a form of high art.” -Oryx Blibble’s 5 star Amazon review

One of my gripes with Sonic '06, outside of gameplay, graphics, animation, and overall quality, is that the story always feels like a "but then" story that a child comes up with when they're playing with their toys. Like "the bad guy is defeated, but then ___" and it keeps on going. Whenever the story feels like it's going to end, some bullsh!t happens to keep the story running.

[@rannynihilius8481]

@@ragnarockerbunny i think having the real Shadow be saved by Eggman after SA2 just gives the Dr. a way more human side to his character and a Android is just not Shadow. Like what would it have done with the story besides having a generic passing of the torch kind of thing? Things like a second King or Armor King are essentially just part of Tekken's DNA in a sense as the story needs stakes but wants to provide the player with the same play style for the next game. I think the growth from Shadow's insomnia arc to his morally confused journey in ShTH into his Sonic 06 story where he truly showed his transformation from a villain/antihero that only fights for vengeance and the past into the hero who fights for the things he believes in no matter what happens. 06 is honestly a fitting end for Shadow as a character in the story in my opinion and i'm fine if he only has a few short appearances then and there if Sonic Team treats him with respect that is. But i heard that they want to use him more often again since he will be the main focus of the 3rd movie and i could actually see that they redeem his character just like they did with Knuckles.

[@nisansparow3390]

(12:13) the best strategy I learned from playing this fight as a kid was to wait until silver said: "how about this?!". At this point of time silver picks up some objects and won't use his psychokinesis on sonic. This is the time where I would use the slide move on silver and get out, because the homing attack keeps you locked on to silver so as soon as you attack silver with it you're likely to get caught. Also silver becomes invulnerable as soon as you hit him, so the best choice is to use the slide to hit him and slide away until the cycle repeats itself.

I can't even fathom how anyone is willing to defend this game on the basis on nostalgia. This was my first or second Sonic game and even as a kid I knew it was horrible. I had no fun because it was borderline unplayable. I didn't have enough experience playing games to call this a "bad game" when I was that young but the fact that I spent over 20 hours trying to get through the first level but couldn't because of the horrible load times, unclear saving mechanics, disgusting controls, and almost non-existent instructions made my younger self so frustrated. I didn't know then that it was a bad game but with several years more experience, it is so easy to look back and definitively call it bad. I hate this game.

[@zeroattentiongaming820]

In a lot of cases with Sonic games even if they aren't exactly great they aren't exactly terrible either, it's just subjective whether a person will like them. Not this game though, this game is objectively terrible on every level besides the soundtrack and the CG cutscenes. Love or hate the Adventure games or even something like Forces, those games don't break on a whim, have ridiculously long load screens, waste your time like searching for the captain, feature an overly large hub world that adds absolutely nothing to the experience or require a massive fan overhaul to make them properly functional. Sonic 06 truly is one of the highest profile objective failures in the history of the medium on just about every level. Only other things that I can say reach this abysmal lack of quality from such a big name are the Avengers game and maybe Cyberpunk 2077 on the older consoles.

[@Dante02d12]

9:25 : I've just come this far, but since you're asking and I do love this game, I'm posting my argumentation right now. - First of all, I don't consider it a good game on the technical side ^^. So don't worry about that xD! But the technical side was never the strong part of Sonic games, so yes, Sonic 06 is more broken than any previous Sonic game, but as long as we go fast and have fun, that's still a Sonic experience. And boy does Sonic go fast in this game. The Spin Dash goes fast, the scripted scenes go fast, and some levels even have "super-speed parts". Sure, the controls are lacking in those sections, or even hellish ; but they're among the best scenes Sonic had ever offered us back then. I mean, look at the Kingdom Valley high-speed part and dare say that it doesn't look freaking awesome. - The game lets us control 9 characters, each with its own gameplay. That's much better than even Sonic Adventure 2, where we have as much people but each pair of character has the same gameplay (Tails and Eggman have the same gameplay, Sonic and Shadow too, and so on). Even simple characters like Amy werea great to play as, since she uses her hammer. Of course, all these characters had technical issues, especially Tails' stupid aiming system. But once you get used to these issues, it's awesome to fly as Tails or use telekinesy with Silver. - The story was excellent, for a Sonic game and even for a game overall. People keep complaining about Elise and Sonic's kiss, and yes, that's weird, but that's ONE second in the whole game. Meanwhile, this game gave us Silver, which is a rip-off of Trunks, sure, but Trunks' story is great, thus, Silver's is too. It also gave Mephiles, one of the best vilains in Sonic, as its resemblance to Shadow is a captivating mystery and it's powerful enough to succeed his plan to rip space-time. As for Elise, the fact that she keeps getting kidnapped is annoying, but she also has a nice backstory, where Iblis' Flame was sealed into her by her father (a la Naruto). And of course, like Sonic Adventure games, the story is divided in multiple scenarios, which converge towards the Final Episode, which is freaking _epic._ We get to use each of the 8 characters in a single level (or just 7), in order to save Sonic's life, so _he_ can defeat Solaris, the litteral God that broke Space-Time. Aside from Adventure 2 and Frontiers, what Sonic game gave us a plot this complex and epic? *None.* - The levels are great in this game. The gameplay issues make them all frustrating, but I still remember fondly of each sequence of this game. The bubble-sliding in the Aquatic Base, the train chase in Radical Train, all the levels in the apocalyptic future, many of them were fun despite all the bugs and broken mechanics, to the point that I was sad they weren't all available in multiplayer. - The gems allowed Sonic to have various gameplay elements. Being able to summon a shield was a nice improvement compared to previous games, where the shield had to be taken from the boxes on the ground. The Tornado was epic to use in fights. There's a couple of broken gems of course, but the non-broken ones were all nice to use. - The freaking music, man! His World had been my favourite song for _years._ - The cutscenes (the cinematic ones, not the in-game ones) are among the best I've ever seen in a videogame. In fact, sometimes I'd spend half an hour just watching my favourite cutscenes before actually playing the game. I mean, watch the final cutscene of Sonic's story and dare say that this isn't one of the best things Sonic has ever shown us. Sonic 06 is a terrible game on the technical side. But there's much more to it than that. And there were definitely issues there as well (I hated some of the missions the game would force us to do in the overworld), but I'd play the broken mess that is Sonic 06 over Sonic Colors anytime. Because at least Sonic 06 feels like a Sonic game. EDIT : I'll just add one more thing after watching the full video. There's no offense in what I'll say, but honestly, as much as the game has technical flaws, you've also just been very bad at it overall. - I haven't seen you make a single Spin Dash with Sonic. - You've barely used the gems. - You've realized Silver's Super-Hero Landing is powerful in its very last stage only. Of course Silver's levels would feel bad if you keep pressing A for each enemy. The levels are designed so you use the techniques you've just unlocked. - A lot of times when you complain about game design or game mechanics, you're just being terrible at it. I mean, the balls section? It's a simple billboard minigame. You not only took a lot of time realizing the countdown was about the number of hit you inflicted, you also kept falling into the same corners even though it kept making you lose. - Same for the high-speed sections. As soon as you realize you have no control when jumping, you should know the key is putting Sonic in the right direction before jumping. Don't get me wrong though, the controls _are_ terrible and stiff, but you can definitely work around it easily. In fact, the entire section is about pressing A with the right timing. - You also didn't realize you could fly longer with Silver and Omega by pressing A several times in a row instead of keeping it pressed. You lost multiple times because of it. Sure, it's stupid how it works, but it does work. - Silver's Teleport Dash is actually useful in the last stage, to get away from Black Holes. It also makes you go faster on up-slopes. Again, Sonic 06 is a bad game with a lot of technical issues. But you've also been very bad at it.
