    Sonic 06 is great game for ps3 and 360. I love princess elise, sonelise, and the rest. Get sonic 06 for ps3 and 360, It's better than superman for n64.

    this game had more potencial than sonic boom, but it was not exploited at all.. but i think is a regular game, i like gameplay and the graphics are regular for that time... i have the game for ps3 so when i played it my first impression was: SEGA!!!!! YOU RUINED A GAME WITH POTENCIAL!!!!

    If this video game had finished its development correctly, it would have been a very good game, a decent story, very good music, the gameplay mechanics were excellent, very similar to that of adventures but improved, and above all, very fun. Curse you SEGA for releasing it incomplete

    So I'm not a big sonic fan, I enjoyed some of the old games but they are a lot of them that are just awful...This is one of them and it's surely the worst one I played.

    The story is terrible, it's long and boring and there is a lot of times where it doesn't make any sense. The characters are equally as terrible, I never liked sonic as a character but here he's just so freaking annoying

    How is the gameplay? Well it's terrible, everything in this game is a glitchy, broken, nonsensical mess !
    Just by playing the first level, you can see that this game is unfinished.

    In conclusion, stay away from this game, but you probably knew that already

    I hate this game with all my might. I can't believe Sega hauled out this trash to us. The glitches are everywhere, the controls are the worst I've ever experienced, the level design is horrible, and it has bestiality! Thank god for the Wii version of Sonic Unleashed, Sonic Colors, and Sonic Generations for making me forget this dreck... until now.

    The game itself was not bad ERA PÉSIMO! The game itself would have been a fairly passable game clear if they had finished, the game has many bugs, a story a little loose and was responsible for the decline of one of the most beloved mascots of gaming unfortunately.

    How bad for sonic you do not deserve it friend 4/10

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. [Just a heads up that this review WILL contain spoilers. If you want to avoid them, which I don't know why you would, this review is not for you.]

    I have been a Sonic fan for many years, and very little games have disappointed me. However, this is unfortunately one of those games that carried so much potential, and yet was wasted in execution. Due to SEGA rushing themselves to get this out for Sonic's 15th birthday, the gameplay is simply a broken mess.
    However, the story can be really interesting. Well, Shadow and Silver's stories, anyway. Sonic's story is based around rescuing Princess Elise III of Soleanna. Now, I don't mean to offend Elise, but can we compare how many times she's been kidnapped in this ONE GAME ALONE compared to the amount of times Princess Peach Toadstool was kidnapped?
    Shadow's story shows him now working for G.U.N, but is trapped in a dilemma created by Mephiles (more on him soon) that his friends will eventually abandon him, leaving him to face the world alone. 3 words for Sonic Team - OW THE EDGE.
    Silver's story makes him the most developed - as a fighter from the future, he is tricked by Mephiles to attempt defeating Sonic in order to change his future. I just love how he's so intrigued by the atmosphere of the present. It's adorable. But his gameplay still sucks. I don't have time for your apples, Silver.
    And speaking of Mephiles, let's talk about him. No doubt, he is the real villain of this game, and he is epic! He is the mind of Solaris, separated from the god's body known as Iblis. In order to reunite with Iblis, Mephiles has to release the Flames of Disaster from within Elise by making her cry. This is why he tricks Silver into thinking Sonic is the Iblis Trigger, as if he knows Elise will form an attachment to Sonic and therefore cry when Mephiles... let's just say he accomplishes his goal in a historic execution that is then crushed by the cringiest scene in Sonic history. You guys know the one.

    But in my opinion, this is a game that contained high potential for the Blue Blur, but because of the rushed development, the departure of Yuji Naka, and Sonic Team split in half to work on 2 different games at the same time, we ended up with a broken mess. It's not Sonic's worst game (*cough* Sonic Boom *cough*) but it's still pretty bad. My recommendation for this game would be for you to form your own opinion on this game through experience. You'll either like it, hate it, or just feel mixed about it.

    Honestly, this game is one of those things where its more fun once you play it again. Once you get used to the controls and physics, it can be fun to rush through levels. The story isn't very good, but the CGI cutscenes, as always, look amazing.

I don't like the Elise and Sonic part, but I actually really like that Dusty Desert level, its actually nice to not be going at breakneck speeds all the time, and just do some combat. The soundtrack is amazing, my favourite in the franchise. The glitches are everywhere, however, and it kind of ruins the pacing a lot of the time. To be honest, i find the glitches kind of funny, but that doesnt change my score. The bossfights all really suck, like the first one where you have to grab the horn. You have to grind on his tail and stuff, but you could never really see where he was, as the camera didn't follow him. They could have made it more like the Sonic Adventure Chaos 0 fight when the camera always follows the boss, and that would really help with the boss. Same thing with silver, my camera isn't on him, and oops, im dead. I found that the silver infinite loop isnt actually infinite, you can just hold down right and you can get out, still unfair though. The hubworlds are fun to mess around in, and although the NPC's models look weird, some of the town missions are actually pretty fun and involve speed and combat. Silver as a whole the puzzles are very slow, and although you can skip them with glitches, that is unintended and doesn't make it better. Shadow is just in the middle. The controls are kind of touchy, but that is mainly because the speed sections and platforming sections control the same. It was the same thing in Sonic Adventure and Adventure 2, but 06's level design doesnt work as well with it. 6/10, i would recommend it to a fan of the adventure games that doesn't have to high hopes, but anyone else steer clear.

    Cómo dije en mi Review en YouTube, este juego es uno de los mejores Sonic de la historia, pero con una falta de pulimento total.

Shadow es lo mejor de todo el juego en todos los aspectos, su jugabilidad está muchísimo más corregida respecto a Shadow The Hedgehog y su historia se disfruta muchísimo. Silver tiene una buena historia ( mucho más corta, una lástima ) y buena jugabilidad, aunque lo lastra no tener un Homing Attack y en algunas partes se echa de menos tenerlo, ya qué hace al juego algo pesado.

    Gráficamente se ve espectacular, la ambientación está muy bien conseguida, niveles muy detallados y coloridos, GRAN variedad de enemigos y se nota qué el Sonic Team se esforzó en este apartado, aunque siento qué Soleanna carece de detalle y el Final Boss es bastante sencillo en cuánto a diseño.

    Los tiempos de carga no son largos, pero son MUY pesados y mal optimizados ( aunque en 360 duran menos ) y lo qué tiene esta versión son las ralentizaciones en algunas partes, aunque prefiero jugar así qué a 10FPS con el Werehog en Unleashed de PS3.

    No entiendo cómo este juego tiene tan malas críticas, ya qué tiene los mismos problemas de jugabilidad qué Sonic Adventure ( en cuánto a cámara y control ) aunque algo qué hace a este título algo más malo es su casi nulo motor de física y los tiempos de carga, pero tiene una historia MUY buena, una jugabilidad algo mediocre, pero aceptable, y una duración bastante larga.

    It sucks that Silver debuted in this game since he's pretty hated and it's been wonky to fit him into Sonic's universe because of it. I at least like some of the soundtracks in the game which're memorable to me. His World, All Hail Shadow, Dreams Of An Absolution, White Acropolis, Flame Core, Aquatic Base... I love 'em so much.

The few CGI cutscenes were real nice, but the others were like watching stoic Power Rangers. The story was something outta the ordinary from what Sonic usually does, but I wouldn't completely knock the idea though it needed some changes. However, it's all over the place with inconsistencies among other things. The gameplay speaks for itself and it's sad that the development went downhill for it.

    Also, that one scene where Sonic is revived by a kiss from Elise (well, specifically the Chaos Emeralds)... that wasn't necessary and it's personally not even because of the whole "human × anthropomorphic" thing. It was just pointless really, especially when Knuckles prolly could've did a chant and accomplished the same thing, not to mention Amy's hilarious would-be reaction to that. What that whole sub-plot should've been was one about inspiring Elise to live up to her title as Princess of Soleanna, if anything.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Sonic The Hedgehog (06, 2006) is a game that I personaly didn't hate that much like everyone did. Don't get me wrong it is a bad game that it's hard for me to recommend to someone. The game has many glitches, but they didn't bother me that much cause I didn't come across them so often like probably many ppl. did. The story is just lame, the crappy romance with Sonic and Elise (she's probably the worst character in the Sonic franchise) like who the hell cares about Elise and all her problems?? Also Sonic is a **** hedgehog! His eyeball is bigger then Elise's head, and no it's not something like Mario and Peach, because THERE IS NO ROMANCE. A simple invite to a cake and a kiss doesnt make a love story or something like that, same with Amy because she's Sonic's fangirl. The controls are just garbage, they feel so clunky and unpolished as hell. There are 3 diffrent characters and story lines Sonic's controls are least broken and his levels are the best in the entire game. In Sonic 06 nothing just work as it should and that's the worst part of the game. Shadow's story is weird, but the most interesting of them all, and better then in Shadow The Hedgehog for sure. Because he joined G.U.N? Why? What's the point of it? Guess we never will get a answer. Shadow plays like Sonic but is really slow, moving acros the open world cities is a pain and it's even worse with Silver cause he's even slower. And Shadow has ton of wechicles witch non of them are fun too play (i can't remember how the motocycle played like). Silver's gameplay is just bad, there's no god method for the telekines. Personaly i like Silver as a Character, but his voice in 06 is just so bad and annoying. Also the game is rushed. THEY WANTED TO MAKE A REVOLUTION SONIC GAME THEY SAID! AND WORSE THEY EVEN SPLIT THE TEAM! Ok. let's talk about the good side's of the game. The soundtrack is fantastic (personaly my favorite Sonic soundtrack ever), some of the stages are actualy good the problem is the cotrols are garbage so you will die often because of them. Mephiles the main villan is great personaly my favorite in the entire Sonic universe even tho his plan kind of sucked. Ya know what's the worst about the story? No, not the god awful kiss, not the ridicuals time travel, but the story like never happend. Sonic and Elise go to the past where Solaris was just a little flame and then Elise blow out the flame. That's it, all this never happend THE END.

    Summarizing Sonic The Hedgehog 2006 is a really bad game, if you never played a Sonic game and you want to buys 06 don't buy it. Buy Generations insted, but if you played every Sonic game out there and only 06 left for you sure go ahead remember it will not be good. I am not hating on 06, but i don't like it either i would like to see a remake about this game made by Sonic Team.

    But the damned and **** technical component destroys the desire to play it. Bad controls, a very strange camera, lags and slowdowns in the PlayStation 3 version, an infinite number of bugs in the Xbox 360 version. Add the bad acting of American actors, who clearly did it on get away, some unnecessary and unfinished gameplay elements. And it turns out we have a complete disaster. Although, it was worse, and even now some games in the series are much worse than this ****

    It has beautiful and very serious story that sonic games are lacking nowadays, very bold and unique Silver's gameplay. I never saw anything like that in any other game and I hella liked this psychokinetic gameplay! Also I liked the adventure-styled Sonic's gameplay, especially very fast mach-speed sections, you're really feeling yourself super-fast during them. Level design of this game is very diverse, you'll see both post-apocalyptic city and fantasy castle, underwater scientific lab and fantasy jungles, and all this diversity, surprisingly, fits each other well and don't make any dissonance while completing the game, I'll just clap to the devs for it, because it's very hard to do with such level-design diversity, many games failed in it. I also liked beautiful and rocking music this game has, there were many very talented groups like Crush 40 or Zebrahead. Even months after I completed the game I still listen to His World on repeat everyday! Also I liked very good cutscenes that perfectly showed the mood of scene and what characters of the scene are feeling right now. When Silver needs to shake because of despair, he's shaking, when Shadow needs to look bad-ass, he looks bad-ass! And it also has pretty good graphics for 2006 year, at least on PS3 version that I played. I don't want to spoil anything about the story, because I think that it's one of the main advantages of the game and it's worth to complete the game and know out the story by yourself, but I'll say that it have pretty much of drama, time travels, and it's one of two game stories that genuinely made me cry at the ending. One of the best game stories ever.
    At the end, I'll say that even though this game of course has some flaws, like very frequently loadings, especially during town missions, or some annoying bugs, they didn't ruin my experience of the beautiful gameplay, story, and level-design of the game at all, and I don't understand all the hate this game gets. Recommending anyone to play it, even if you are not a Sonic fan, this game is, in my opinion, an underrated masterpiece.

    The worst sonic games I ever played. The game is full of bugs and the story is terrible. Only one positive thing about this game are soundtrack. They are oustanding! Some characters got better gameplay (Blaze, Omega, Silver) some worse ( Sonic, Shadow, Amy) and som of them neutral (knuckles, rouge, tails). Sonic 06 is mediocre and frustrating game and i dont reccomend it.

    Well, this game isn’t perfect (which is something you say with every Sonic game) and it’s not a good as Sonic Generations or Unleashed, but as much as this game may be broken, I actually enjoyed it. It’s level design may not be the best and the controls are sensitive, but you can get used to it. Sonic 06 is not great, but there is still fun to be had.

    The art music and visuals and like 2 levels of this game are good but the rest of the game is just hot trash like it’s really bad. Most of the levels just have you running around towns talking to NPC’s and figuring out how to PLAY A LEVEL. The game has countless glitches and it’s just a broken mess…

    ok, this game maybe has a lot of bugs or weird story, but actually sountrack is carrying the entire game
    And gameplay... is enjoyable, when you ignore glitches.

    Sonic 06 was a game that destroyed my mental health that Is how bad this game is. This game should not be played for entertainment it should be officially used as a torture device to punish war criminals or even for interrogation but even then that was still be too cruel. Don't get me wrong there are good elements to Sonic 06 but you can't really pay attention to that when the game is soSonic 06 was a game that destroyed my mental health that Is how bad this game is.

    I'm surprised that I don't HATE this game. I don't like the missions, there's the constant lagging, and the glitches. But once you get into a stage, you start having some fun. The issue though is that the moment it gets going it either stops or loads the second part. Also, the mach-run sections. The story is okay, but inconsistent.

    This game is my favorite of the franchise! I almost never stop playing.

    I love the gameplay, I love the story, I love the characters and I love Mephiles.

    I like that Sonic 06 is getting more appreciation now

    In the end, Sonic nuts will love it. Everyone else should stay away.
  2. Sonic the Hedgehog may share its name with the Genesis original, but this game is even more broken than most of the other recent Sonic games have been.
  3. If you're willing to withstand the constant onslaught of glaring issues regarding the control, you might be able to revel in some of those aforementioned highlights, but it won't last. In the end, you'll find yourself wishing for the good ol' 16-bit days.
