It looks absolutely pathetic. You actually have to buy things, and you actually have to wear something called "Custom Shoes", as if they couldn't think of anything better. The cutscenes look great, but the gameplay, by comparison, looks incredibly bland. And why the FUCK is there a loading screen for one line of dialog? Seriously? The introduction is below. Ahehem...

God I love pokecapn. Have you watched KungFuJesus' playthrough of God Hand? HE was hilarious in that. |

Yeah, he's pretty funny, actually. I was pleasantly surprised. Pokecapn, at least. And damn, does he make this game look unplayable. That was sorta my point. I mostly wanted TUM to come in here and say that it's not that bad, or point out the good in the game, or something. |

Point out the good in the game? Well I suppose being able to walk through a shuttle loop, in blatant defiance of physics, is pretty funny. In all seriousness, my experience of the game wasn't plagued by fifty bajillion horrible fatal glitches, so perhaps I'm just lucky. No, my deaths were generally from the really mean level layout. Being hit by sand-wave thrown spike balls is painful, you know. Being hit by them FIFTY THOUSAND TIMES is even more painful. |

"Let's run straight up!" Anyway, you actually found the game playable? I dunno, I picture people just saying "fuck it", returning it, and never playing a Sonic game again, once they reach the train level. --- Take notice, it's a block with a question mark on it... |

It was actually kind of fun occasionally. Stretching occasionally to the bare minimum here... Mmm, catching twenty missiles with telekinesis and throwing them at something. Ah, glorious destruction. Silver's hover thing needs longer range though. Also Raid: Evil Monster can go fuck itself. The ONE mission I never managed to S rank. FUUUUUUCK YOU. |

The missions, not the damn levels. The missions were easy as balls. Except Raid: Evil Monster, where no matter how hard I tried, the highest I could get was, I believe, 1000 points below an S rank. Which is about a second off. It is absolutely fucking impossible to do that mission any faster than I did. |

Oh. Missions. You masochistic son of a bitch. Sitting through 4 god damn loading screens for each failed S rank has to suck. |

Well there wasn't a whole lot of that. ... Except the "put the apples in the barrels" one. That one, admittedly, took me a few tries to figure out. Once I figured it out, though, insta-S rank. The main thing about 06 is that it gave us such wonderful songs like His World, Dreams of an Absolution, and Crush 40's version of All Hail Shadow. And it started what seems to be a trend of using an instrumental, orchestrated version of the main theme for the final boss. His World and Endless Possibilities orchestrated were plenty awesome, so what's next? Also, lo and behold I actually LIKE Silver. Some people say he looks like a fancharacter, but seriously I defy you to find a fan character that actually looked like him before the game came out. For that matter, I defy you to find a fancharacter that looks like him anyway, since so many people are too lazy to actually bother with modding a sprite to look anything like him. ... I'll also mention that hating him because of anything he did in Sonic 06 is not a legitimate reason to hate him, as Sonic 06 mercifully did not happen. His real first appearance was in Sonic Rivals. And now, he needs to show up again so he can explain why the hell there seems to be two Eggman Negas, one from the future and one from Blaze's universe. Or maybe they're both the same person and he can somehow traverse time and space and likes to confuse people. OR! Sonic Rivals was yet another branch of canon and Silver STILL hasn't shown up in mainstream. My brain hurts now. |

I'll agree with the instrumental main themes being awesome for boss fights, but His World was terrible. I don't think a single person other than you would disagree with me. I had to sit through the credits while it played at a low volume with them talking over it and I couldn't stand ANY aspect of the vocals at all. Also, is ANYTHING in the game original or not glitched to hell? They actually stole Flashman's music and remixed it, and there are a ton of things that reference Zelda. One of the songs is apparently directly taken from Chrono Trigger. It's like they just said "Fuck it" and decided not to think of anything on their own? Or maybe they heard His World and realized their music staff was worthless and just covered the rest of the songs. Including His World for the final boss. <_< |

From that thread, there spawned a number of challenges. This one involves the final boss of Sonic 3, and how, after he was defeated, he was able to run AT THE SAME SPEED as Sonic, to escape. Here are the winning entries.

People are still talking about that seriously? It's a goddamn gameplay mechanic. Jesus christ. |

Actually it was just a challenge given out for fun, rather than a serious brainstorming of theories. |

Ending. This is good. Spoilers, but the ending is so much bullshit you probably don't care. Okay, so the world gets destroyed, Sonic dies, then you have to go through the most retarded bullshit levels ever. Sonic revives, you fight a pathetically easy final boss, put out the fire that caused time travel to exist in the first place, which causes everything to reset as though the game never happened. What the bullshit is that? I mean, as happy as I am that a game like this isn't canon, or fit into a timeline at all, what the fuck? That's just... What the fuck. |

That was someone on the storywriting team going, "Holy shit what have we done? This game needs to have not happened." |

I guess. You'd think they could've just, y'know, not released it or something. Or made the final episode actually possible. |
