Most dissapointing Sonic game?

Sonic hasn't always lived up to the hype. Sonic Unleashed, for example, was considered "average" among most gamers (I'm not one of them). But there is one thing that Sonic Unleashed did, it disappointed most of us. Sega "acted" as if they got their act together, as if Sonic was finally going to make a comeback. In the end, however, 75% of the game was a horrible God of War ripoff. Despite this, my most dissapointing Sonic game is Mario and Sonic at the Olympics.

Sega and Nintendo ruined, what could have been, the greatest crossover in history. And by ruined I mean destroyed.

This game could have been called "Mario Party 9 with Sonic and Friends" and the outcome would still have been the same: a boring party game with repetitive and tiring controls.

You know whats even more dissapointing? They made a sequel, and a third one is coming out :roll:

But in the end, Sonic Generations looks amazing, and I think its enough to bring the series back. :D

If anyone thinks putting Retro Sonic in a game instantly makes the game good, think again.

SpaceSword

The game was disappointing. There's only 2 levels and it plays like a first person shooter.

Though for a educational game, it does teach a little math and english, so it's more disappointing than bad.

My most disappointing Sonic game is Sonic 06.While it's not the worst Sonic game I have ever played,it has too many problems.They probably should have kept it in development for a few more months.

For me i would say its between Shadow the hedgehog or Sonic 06

Sonic 06 was just tweeible while Shadow had potential if they just took out the weapons

Mine is Sonic Unleashed HD.I like a bunch of Sonic games that do bad,but this one was a disappointment,mainly because of the 30 minute Werehog levels,and unpredictable daytime levels.If they want to do god of war correctly,they should just give Sonic Blades of Exile instead of letting him stretch like Mr. Fantastic :roll:

Plus Eggmanland was the cheapest level I have played in any game out there,no game should have someone sell a Hot Dog if you beat the level under 45 minutes.

Sonic Unleashed while it's definitely not as bad as 2006 lacking in annoying friends and beastiality, I hated that it bogged itself down with waaaay too many werehog stages as well as hub world tedium. At the most the werehog should've only taken up a third of the total gameplay. Plus the early vids showed so much potential for this fast, fun modern Sonic game that's in there but only after slogging through what felt like hours of mindless beat-em gameplay.kbaily

I tried to keep my expections from going too high, but I just couldn't find a reason to play this game. All it did was frustrate (I think thats the 3rd time I used that word)

I'm not trying to hate, because I really wanted to enjoy Unleashed. And I just typed all of this because it seems everyone in this union doesn't hate it as much as I do. What am I missing??? :roll:

I'm failing to see why you'd consider it "decent" or why anyone would like this game. Unleashed isn't as bad as 0'6, but it was still lacking. SpaceSword

Well, you've got 9 countries with 17 story mode Acts and optional Acts, 8 Bosses, over 100 collectible items including Artwork, Music and cutscenes, different kinds of missions, and upgradable stats.

The daytime stages felt like trial/errorSpaceSword

I found most of the collectible items going down different paths and learned where the dangers and shortcuts were.

especially Holoska and Eggman Land.SpaceSword

Eggmanland's got nothing on "Missing Sister".

Not only was the overworld boring, SpaceSword

Did anyone notice that the igloos in Holoska look like Chao heads?

the puzzles you solved in the temples were hard SpaceSword

None of the temples in the game were actual levels.

Sonic moved too fastSpaceSword

Not sure how to respond to that one.

I found the load times when you switched between hedgehog/werehog really really frustratingSpaceSword

This?

All that the werehog did was ripped from GoW, and you know what I did in response to the werehog? I turned on my PS2 and played GoW instead of going through those horrible platforming sections. SpaceSword

I've never played GoW, but I did enjoy upgrading my combat list and using new moves. I guess because it reminded me of Pokemon.

And you know what I hate the most about the werehog? When you die, your score goes back to zero, and it is really frustrating to get an "S" rank on most of the werehog stages.SpaceSword

That can happen in Sonic Adventure 2, Heroes, Shadow the Hedgehog, Sonic 06, and Sonic Colors as well. There are a few cases where you can die once and still be able to S Rank a level but most of the time you have to make through without dying....I might do a rant about Ranks in the future.

But was any of it fun? And they recycled all of the daytime stages for that stupid mission mode. I would have liked more variety in the daytime, because there just weren't enough regular Sonic acts to hold the game up. Also, you played a daytime mission every 30 minutes. Is going through all of the werehog stages worth 2 good minutes of daytime. No, it's not, and the night levels completely ruined the pacing.

Details are nice, but its still boring

Okay, not hard, frustrating

Sonic moved too fastSpaceSword

Not sure how to respond to that one.

I said he moved to fast in the overworld, not in the regular levels

Yes, I found that annoying

Once you play GoW, you'll never go back to the werehog

Actually, I didn't notice that, so I guess every Sonic game suffers from that then.

It was for me. :D

And they recycled all of the daytime stages for that stupid mission mode. SpaceSword

There is no Mission Mode. You can do missions, but they're pretty much optional.

Also, don't they recycle levels for missions in just about any Sonic game that has missions? Isn't that the whole idea of "missions"? Another rant I might do in the future.

I would have liked more variety in the daytime, because there just weren't enough regular Sonic acts to hold the game up. SpaceSword

There are more Day Acts than Night Acts in the HD versions. Also, Day Act 1 of each country is at least 2 minutes and 30 minutes long.

Also, you played a daytime mission every 30 minutes. Is going through all of the werehog stages worth 2 good minutes of daytime. No, it's not, and the night levels completely ruined the pacing.SpaceSword

In the Night Acts, you can take your time to get collectibles, including the Medals to unlock the next levels. In the Day Acts, you'll more than likely run past any items instead taking your time because time affects your rank and score more in the Day Acts than the Night Acts. Also, you got more experience in the Night Acts than the Day Acts.

Learning where the dangers is trial/error.SpaceSword

So every Sonic game has trial/error? What's the problem?

the puzzles you solved in the temples were hard SpaceSword

Okay, not hard, frustratingSpaceSword

None of the temples in the game were actual levels. So what actually are you referring to? The bosses?

If I remember correctly, one of our officers said they enjoyed the Night Acts because it reminds them of Gow

Also, I changed my mind. In terms of most disappointing, nothing compares to Sonic 2006.sonictrainer

With Sonic 06 I abandoned hopes early on the minute I heard it still had playable friends, Shadow using vehicles and Sonic having romance with a human girl. Then I heard bad reports from E3 06 that the controls were still as sloppy as ever and that was all finalized when I played the demo. Wheras Unleashed I was hopeful much closer to release. No playable friends butting in, the day stages looked great and even the werehog didn't look terrible from early vids and I hoped like many day stages would be more numerous than night stages.

Though in terms of gaming media, Sonic 2006 did have a lot more hype to it. After all, this was a chance to see an old school cartoony character in HD (as Nintendo eschewed the HD with the Wii) and that first 15th anniversary teaser looked pretty awesome and Sega kept saying that this was a sort of "reboot" for the series to bring Sonic into a modern age and away from the "kiddie" pandering of his past games.

@sonictrainer

I think were both misunderstanding each other :P But we all have our opions, and your definitely not a troll, so I respect your opinion on Unleashed. The game just didn't work for me :cry:

@sonictrainer - I've already got a rant on ranks in the works ;)sonicphc

[QUOTE="PyreofKoL"]Anything 3D after Sonic Adventure 2. The SA games had their flaws but still managed to be a ton of fun in spite of them. Everything since then up til Colors has been nearly unplayable. At least we've had Sonic 4 and a slew of great Sonic games for handhelds.kbaily

And Colors which everyone seems to ignore because it's on the Wii and therefore must suck. >(

There are some Sonic games that were destined to suck from the beginning like Black Knight.chocolate1325

It does suck in the beginning but once you unlock the other 3 characters and start making some weapons, the fun factor increases.

Because you can skip the whole level with Knuckles.chocolate1325

[QUOTE="chocolate1325"]There are some Sonic games that were destined to suck from the beginning like Black Knight.PyreofKoL

I bought it from the GS bargain bin for like $9 or something and even if you sort of liked it, the entire game really has the air of something Sega just rushed out to make a few bucks on fans. Their misconception came from the surprsingly good sales of Secret Rings that sold well namely because audiences were happy to see the first "Sonic only" game in many many years as wel as it showed mostly gimmick free gameplay. Just Sonic running fast. And Sega instead of getting the idea that "hey people want to play a Sonic game with just Sonic running fast" they said "Hey they love the story idea, let's toss Sonic in Camelot and give him a sword because people don't react as violently to swords as they do guns."

But Black Knight represents the end of an era of the "Sonic fan game" really it felt like something the Shadow fans would've made as a bad fan fiction. It's only four hours long, you trade one set of waggly controls for another and they even put a fan art gallery in the game." But at most, it's only four hours long and once I finished it, I had no reason to want to play it again. Colors was only five hours but it felt more rewarding at the end of the day.

But it's bomb in sales was the best thing that could happen. It was the nail in the coffin for "story" driven, friend heavy, cock rocky, weapon based Sonic games. After that Sega got back to focusing on gameplay and giving the mainstream audiences what they want.

I call it the "George Lucas Excuse" aka the excuse George Lucas uses when people say how much the Star Wars prequels and Jar Jar suck. He says "well kids like it."

 I would have to say Shadow the Hedgehog. Before that came out most Sonic titles were good leading people to have expectations of quality. After people found out it was terrible those expectations went down so the subsequent garbage, '06, Unleashed, the secret rings, etc... didn't hit as hard.

Than he can go with a bayonet, those were still fairly common in said time period. He could also go alone, but while he's taken on gun-wielding foes before, I'm sure human soldiers would pose more of an obstacle then G.U.N. robots.mariostar0001

Well sadly that was Sega's problem with the Sonic series for a long time, they'd come up with a story first then try to work some gameplay around it and you should never design a game that way. In a Generations interview one team member said the mistake they made in past games was being too story focused so now they focus on gameplay first then work a story around it. This is a problem you see in ALOT of modern games. Devs have this story in their heads and then are trying to find a type of gameplay that works around it. Hence why you see so many God of War type games where all you do is walk down a corrirodor, killing enemies until the next cutscene with no replay value whatsoever. Hell look at FFXIII, the whole reason they restricted players from exploring an overworld like in older games was because it was going to interfere with their massive story.

You know what game was really disappointing? Sonic Colors. It had no guns, no beastiality, no glitches that make me feel like I'm playing an unfinished game, no ugly realistic Eggman, no time traveling, no Final Fantasy plot, no emo hedgehogs. What did I pay for??

/sarcasm

All I got in Sonic Unleashed was a werehog that smashed people into giblets and used his arms like the Blades of Chaos. I mean seriously, a fighting style based on a game I like? What is this madness?

/lulz

I think we all need to stop bashing on werehog. He's a lot better than 06.
