Johnny vs. Sonic The Hedgehog (2006)

This is it, folks. The end of the Sonic Marathon has arrived, and yeowzas, it's the longest review of them all! Seriously, I don't think I'll ever make a review as long as this one ever again, but a lot needs to be said about this particular game.

I've visited this game many times before. I wasn't exactly satisfied with the first review I made years ago. Since then, I've done a commentary, and I even did a full Let's Play of the game. Thoughts and perspectives have changed. But what exactly? Is this truly the worst of the worst? Are there any bright spots in this infamous title? Join me as I end the Sonic Marathon with SONIC THE HEDGEHOG (2006) for the Xbox 360.

You rather play Bubsy 3D and Sonic 06 over Sonic Unleashed? Granted I don't like Unleashed, but seriously? Two things I can say that unleashed has over 06 is that it doesn't share the same name as the first original Sonic game. That's insulting on so many levels. And you can actually jump on enemies.

06 - The worst story on a Sonic game, probably the worst controls, 9 re-used levels , unninteresting bosses, and multiple characters with the rigth CONCEPT, but with some terible execution.

SA1 - Meaningless story, great Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles gameplay, and some hard times with the other 3, 11 levels.

SA2 - Great Sonic gameplay, Chao Garden, multiplayer, "okay" Eggman missions, and dreadful Treasure Hunting. 32 levels.

Did I missed something? Because it seems you did, like, a lot.

Back to the futures story was based on time travel it was good

Propaganda Alert!

Oh yeah Sonic 06 had a great story.........in the sense that it never fucking happened! How the hell can you say that this game is good even with it's technical problems, poorly designed structure and appalling load times?, It's like as if you aren't fussed if SEGA or Sonic Team creates shit like this and you still think it's acceptable? I think your overall taste in video games leaves a lot to be desired........

Why does everyone act like a moron in this game?

[chimanruler15]

And, I thought Shadow The Hedgehog was worse. I only played through its story once, but at least it wasn't as frustrating.

LOL! XD

Palest human being you've ever met? You obviously haven't watched WWE since mid-2009.

[IMmephiles]

Well make that video already! Because how anyone could prefer Shadow over Unleashed is ridiculous.

[IMmephiles]

Let's say: "I'd rather cut off my own testicles or watch Terminator 3 than spend time with you." Does that SERIOUSLY not imply I don't like Terminator 3? (I'm comparing Bubsy 3D to castration here, it's about as much fun.)

i never implied that heavy rain was bad, Heavy Rain is actually pretty good from a story perspective, it's just that it's graphics look so fake and it's controls go against every gaming convention in existance. IT will onyl work as a movie. if i were stuck on a deserted island with Heavy Rain, The Movie, i would be happy, but alas, it is a game so i'm stuck with the tank controls.

i never implied it was bad, by making that assumption you have lost all credibility, you brainless son-of-a-fuck.
