Awoo.

What is the all-time worst Sonic game?

Recommended Posts

I think this could be a fun topic if people use their imagination. I often hear people say that 'Sonic The Hedgehog 2006' is the worst Sonic game of all time, and while the game is abysmal, I don't quite think it is the worst Sonic game ever made.

I think the worst Sonic games are Sonic Genesis for Game Boy Advance and Tails Sky Patrol. This video sums up Sonic Genesis:

That video sums up the whole game.

As for Tails Sky Patrol, I think that could be one of the most broken games of all time. Has anyone ever managed to pass the training area?

/thread.

The point of the thread though is to talk about all the terrible Sonic games.

Yes, Sonic 06 is terrifying but I genuinely don't think it is as bad as, say, Sonic Genesis and Tails Sky Patrol.

I can bare all Sonic games but guess what I hate the most? 06. Why? Sega put in 10% effort in to that game at most. Every other game had effort.

06 was doomed from the start. Look at the design, c'mon. Genesis had hope and it is Sonic 1 just done badly... Tails Sky Patrol had effort. Even Sonic Schoolhouse had effort. So yeah, my opinion will never change.

Sonic Genesis is atrocious and if we are going for effort that has to be one of the laziest games full stop tongue.png

I mean, ugh, look at it!

It's just a port. I'd rather have a port of good game then a atrocious game. Trust me, I've played both games.

It's more of mutilation than a port :P

Besides Sonic '06...

Shadow the Hedgehog - What an embarrassment. I'm not even gonna start, because trust me, I won't stop.

Sonic the Hedgehog 4. Is it really possible to think something as so "meh" that you can hate it? This game is embarrassingly poor, short as hell, shallow, empty... anti-climatic... ugh. I hate it. Hate it!

Also Green Eyes.

Objectively speaking, '06 is definitely one of the absolute worst. However, it has a certain charm to it (stemming from my nostalgia for all the prerelease hype, plus the way the game itself is so bad it's good). I haven't played the GBA remake of the first game, however, but if what I've heard about it is true, then it's definitely the worst game in the series.

I'd go on about how stupid your post is and educate you about Sonic History, but I have better things to do with my time.

Sonic '06 is the worst.

That would be a very mature thing to do!

Go and 'educate' me on Sonic History my master :)

I agree that Sonic Genesis was a dreadful game. In some ways even worse that Sonic 2006-not a good year for Sonic releases in general was it?

What makes Sonic Genesis even worse is that it was a badly produced port of a brilliant and very successful Sonic game. You think of games like the re-release of Sonic CD last year, and you see what SEGA can achieve when proper effort is put into a re-release/port. All eyes on SA2 HD.

Shadow the Hedgehog. I find it worse than 06 for the sole reason that someone at sega actually thought that it was a good idea.

Sonic Blast for game gear it is not only slow, but glitchy and badly designed. Labyrinth is bad, but it's a different style of gameplay and it may not seem like it, but it was at least playable. Now worst game I've seen sonic jam the cheap tiger version.

Well I do. *snort snort*

Sonic Genesis was a terrible port, a disgraceful port, but a port nonetheless.

ShtH at least had the decency of being hilariously bad.

The less desired Game Gear titles like Blast, Sky Patrol and Labyrinth are a double whammy: not only are they usually the more Hotel Mario/CD-i Zelda-ish kind of bad, but they don't have the ever-hanging shadow and insults of a franchise's entire reputation looming over them for as long as time, regardless of what games came afterwards.

Sonic 06 is the worst for me, even with all the other bad games and ports in the way. It's a full-blown game rather than a cheap port, it was simply just bad full stop unlike ShtH, and it does have the aforementioned looming shadow. And it was one of the biggest blows to both SEGA and the fanbase. With the other potential bad games, there was at least something I could laugh about, one or two parts I could genuinely enjoy, or just mess around in for shits and giggles. Sonic 06 wasn't. It was just a nightmare that - thanks to it's reputation - never ends. Even today, seeing the boxart makes me tired. All my patience with the game has ran out.

So with all due respect, I'm not being lazy with my imagination. Every time I think long and hard, no matter where the others rank, 06 is still the king ruling them all.

'06 is probably the most heinous example of all and the obvious answer but really all the 3d games from adventure up to it all suffered from terrible cameras and level set pieces that more often than not sent you falling to your death. 06 is the worst of a bad bunch.

I present to you. The Game.com version of Sonic Jam.

christ I've seen better Hong Kong pirates.

Honestly, aside from obvious choices like 06 or Shadow or one of those gamegear games nobody cares about, I gotta say Sonic 4. While it's nowhere near as bad as those, it was so misleading, played nothing like the classics aside from being 2D, had the absolute worse marketing I've ever seen in a game. Just bleh, Other M was a better Metroid game than this was a Sonic game personally

/beatingadeadhorse

That or Sonic Chronicles, piece of shit I was told was considered the best game by the fanbase. Should've done research I guess.
