i read this a while ago and found this interesting. I have said on another thread that I liked Sonic The Hedgehog 2006. What do the other Sonic fans out there think?

I've tried to like Sonic06, but the bugs and gameplay really ruined it for me. As long the sequel is properly made, Sonic Team can make great games, it should be a great game.

If it doesn't turn out well, this hilarious video should remind you that it could be much much worse.

I guess that they are worst game out there. Mario games, for example only has one plot or so it seems: Princess Peach gets in trouble and Mario has to save her.

Honestly, I just wish SEGA would stop releasing Sonic games which are so thematically different from each other, i.e. some are bright and colourful and set in cartoon-like, surreal environments, whereas others are set in grimy metropolitan settings featuring government bases, guns, etc. In my opinion, this just makes the series feel very fractured.

The upcoming home console Sonic game, Sonic Lost World falls into the "bright, colourful" category, and the fact that a 3D home console release falls into this category suggests that SEGA are heading in this direction with the franchise, so to release a sequel to Sonic '06 (which would fall into the "grimy metropolis" category) would be a big step backwards, in that it'd only serve to fracture the series even more.
