Sonic 3D - Flickies' Island (Blast) - Boss Run - Final Boss

Right, if it wasn't completely obvious, I despise this game. So yeah, I used the level select. Big whoop. Wanna fight about it?

This game could easily have been a classic. Easily. I can get past the awkward viewpoint, the bizarre models, the occansional crappy collision detection...

But the flickies... I mean... seriously.
Why, and how, did that idea get far into development? Was it started as a flicky sequel and somehow got turned into Sonic later?
Without those birds, this would've felt like a Sonic game, and that alone would've made it tens times better. What a way to screw up.

There's only three things I like about this game, the music, the bosses (which are very Sonic like, and some of them are fairly creative) and Pupppet Panic act 2, the only zone without flickies, and how the entire game should've been made.

So, yeah, I dislike this game.

I think one of the reasons they put the flickies into the game is to fill out content. Making a game of this caliber back then was surelynot an easy task, so they had to make something additionaly so it wouldn't be a game you would clear in 30 minutes. If you for fun just run through the levels from the beginning to the end, it doesn't take much time, and even with flickies collection, it doesn't.

However, as most stated, it fails to have the classic sonic feeling, but I love the game anyhow.

I remember playing this on my cousins' Xbox as a kid. Made me sick, and it was confusing.

Sega made this to make up for Sonic Xtreme which got canceled. A proof of this is a Christmas special on Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog. Originally they were planning to use some elements from Sonic Xtreme. After they found out it got canceled they decided to replace it. Not much was used from Sonic 3D Blast for that episode. Anyway I had all seven Sonic games on my Genesis.

By no means will they remake this. But if they made something similar... actually, it might be too late. This kind of game isn't revolutionary anymore. Plus, SEGA would use some OTHER storyline to slaughter the fun.
