But not Ian Moris, a developer known online by his handle ChaosX. Most Sonic fans want to forget the game was ever released. The PS3 version has a 43-percent rating on the reviews aggregation site Metacritic, which is lower than Sonic Forces, Sonic & the Black Knight and Shadow the Hedgehog - the hugely divisive game where Sega's black-and-red antihero skated around with sub-machine guns and said "damn" a lot. Many consider Sonic 06 to be the lowest point in the franchise. Oh, and it was also the game that had a universally hated kiss scene between Sonic and a human princess. Patient players were rewarded with a passable-at-best blend of platforming and action as well as open-world zones that were barren and seemingly half finished.
They hated the finicky controls, too, as well as the uncooperative camera system, agonizingly long load times and glitch-riddled levels. Critics slammed the ambitious but poorly written story, which combined time travel, all-powerful gods and a post-apocalyptic future filled with nothing but fire and abandoned skyscrapers. The game, simply titled Sonic the Hedgehog (commonly referred to as Sonic 06), was a visual leap forward for the franchise and offered three playable characters, including telekinetic newcomer Silver, with separate but interwoven story lines.īut the game was a massive flop.
It was the character's first outing on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 hardware, and Sega clearly wanted to make an impact. The 2006 reboot of Sonic the Hedgehog was supposed to be a turning point for the blue blur.
