06 was my first modern sonic experience on the 360, and I'll never forget when I found out I could abuse the sky gem to skip 80% of the entire sonic story

[@saturnmunchies]

I'd also mention the final game was indeed an earlier build that was released solely because the latest build of the game was unstable and prone to crashing (that's why some things in the manual don't appear in game.) Super Sonic was also going to appear in the game via a "Rainbow Gem" but this was cut for unknown reasons (though the animations still exist.) In fact a TON of animations were cut. Also, the Hedgehog Engine 1 (the rendering engine first used for Unleashed) was intended to be used for Sonic 06, but production was delayed until Unleashed's development. This was why the game likely went for a more realistic aesthetic, as it would've been a good showcase for a more powerful lighting engine. There's also a lot more unused leftovers in the game. Cars were supposed to appear in New City, but were cut due to not working properly. Sonic's Crisis City originally had a 5th section (Section D i believe) that got cut for unknown reasons. There's a very good chance the game originally would've had stories for every character much like SA1 did, but this was obviously likely cut early on, which is why Blaze, Tails, and Omega all have full (or mostly full) levels in Wave Ocean, the first stage in the game.

[@TimDespairBear11]

I heard they released the beta version because the “finished” version of 06 would crash constantly upon startup and sonic team had no idea how to fix it. So they reverted back to a more stable build. Take it with a grain of salt but I wouldn’t be that surprised. Also another funny thing, Sonic’s blue energy meter only is broken because there’s one line of code that is wrong and it can be easily fixed.

If you're questioning that Sonic 06 should get a remake then the answer always for me is the obvious yes in fact we already got two of them Sonic 06 the legacy of Solaris which is a Xbox 360 mod which improves on the original experience of 06 and you got Sonic project 06 by chaos x and he's famous for remaking Sonic 06 from the ground up despite not play the original game himself like taking something things that made the game bad out and then adding stuff that was not in the game before and also project 06 is still in development we already have the Sonic Shadow and silver stages already ready we just need a story the bosses and the final level of the game and then I'll be done I would recommend the legacy of Solaris since it's much more complete the project 06 for right now but you can still try it out

[@Just_Tet]

@@shaulov10doesn’t need a whole re write. Just better fleshed out. The bones of the story is tuff. Shadow representing the past. His story with mephelis. Silver the future. His story with blaze, meph, iblis, wanting to kill sonic. Sonic representing the present. Teaching Elise how to live and eggman just being eggman. It just needs touched up and fleshed out. Cuz Sonics didn’t hit like it should’ve. It needed more cutscenes. But other words the story as an idea is sick.

[@Just_Tet]

@@AccelerateHedge In that case I agree. Cuz I also think every character was portrayed the best they are in any game. Besides sonic. Silver is perfect to how he should always be. Shadow is his best. And sonic was heading the right path. They were sending him down that “black knight” sonic route. But even Sonic was very good which for some reason ppl think he wasn’t. I loved him. He wasn’t AS interesting, but he didn’t need to be. He doesn’t have a huge character arc to undergo. Anyway long story short, then yea I agree. lol

[@bluestreaker9242]

Ya know...I may not have liked how long Sonic '06's levels were, but then I remember Adventure had similarly long levels; what's the difference? Well, for one, the load times, and for two, the physics engine behaved better...mostly, and to no-one's surprise, I suppose. Dusty Desert, though, at a glance from the gameplay, does give you an idea of what COULD have been: they wanted BIG, OPEN-ended level design, playing around with the idea that every stage in Sonic, from as far back as the first game in the series, was a playground of [endless] possibilities (*wink*) and branching pathways. While I do believe it'd be cooler to give Sonic '06 a second shot (I mean, SEGA definitely likes to reference it from time to time, including a funny series canon timeline joke XD), I can see why it's not on the top of their list of priorities: Adventure from a technical perspective could use the brushup, I suppose, but honestly? I don't feel like it needs it, necessarily...I'd be fine with just a straight port that fixes some of the general wonkiness, but even then that kinda stuff is rarer than '06's...damn-near-everything. So yeah, '06 definitely needs the official remake treatment, I feel...but...like...would people go for it? Mmm...maybe... Given the marked public interest in P-06, it's a strong possibility...

[@thedontpanic]

Just going over the facts and timeline of the development cycle really showed this game was pretty much doomed. A year and a half is already very little time to make a game and when you want it to be an ambitious soft reboot for a beloved series, that means you need to put in extra effort and can't fall back on copying a formula. Then, the development team gets cut in half to work on another game. If they were trying to beat the odds before on a strict deadline with no extra help or resources, this was pretty much a death sentence. On top of all that, a head creative that was there from the start leaves in the midst of it. I understand why Sonic Team probably felt a bit directionless after this. Yuji Naka was a huge part of Sonic's creation, and not having him there to guide the franchise anymore is a major disruption. I can hardly imagine what it must have felt like to be on the development staff at that point. SEGA should've understood that one half of Sonic Team couldn't manage a herculean feat of game production, but the ones who could make that call only cared about releasing in time for the holiday season. Nor did they want to cancel or put the next project on hold to focus on the current one (and in the end, both games probably ended up worse for it).

From what I remember the claim is that the Xbox Live demo is using a more recent or feature complete build, but they didn't have any time for QA so they went with the version that was shipped because while it was less finished, they knew that it had less bugs to fix and wouldn't brick people's consoles.
