After all "guilty pleasures" are a thing for a reason. As flawed as the game as, I can see why someone would like Sonic 06, because the game actually does have its redeeming qualities (namely, the controls are decent, some of the levels have good landscape, the music is good, the game has some interesting ideas, etc.). Even though I don't like it, personally.
saying infinite is better than mephiles is like saying a Disney remake is better than the original but that's just me,really the only "big" problem i have with this lol
Also saying that the story from Lost World is on brand bothered me. It's true that Sonic's stories tend to have comedy, but the best ones balance serious plotlines with comedic and goofy moments. Lost World just has a very forgettable story that could have been more interesting with the things it introduced (i.e. Eggman and Sonic teaming up or Tails getting kidnapped and becoming half-cyborg)
My Top Favorite Sonic Games 1. Sonic Adventure DX 2. Sonic '06 3. Sonic Frontiers 4. Sonic Unleashed (X360/PS3) 5. Sonic Adventure 2: Battle 6. Shadow Generations 7. Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric
@@WhyAreWeStilllHereJustToSuffer I am guessing he is ranking the games he has played (at least I would hope). All opinions are valid, but there are definitely some that I struggle to understand. My only question is why Sonic 06 being ranked so high (a great game with great potential if you don't play the base version)
Worst to best for me. Worst Sonic boom rise of lyric, because the biggest challenge in development, on this game, is making it playable, which means they ditched every good idea, meaning there is no good in this game, And killed off a potential good company, Because the Wii U is a nightmare to make a game. Sonic forces, because this game has no level design at all in the 3D sections The only reason this is not the worst sonic game is the shadow DLC did try to make the gameplay better, And the 2D sections have level design. Lost world, because it’s Mario galaxy, but worse. Secret rings, because the controls are the second worst, in the sonic franchise. 06 because It does have good level design. And could have been better. if it had a longer development time, than 6 months. Adventure 1 due to it being very flawed, Tails just bypasses the entire level design, because tails can fly, E 123 grammar is just hold 1 button to win, Big the cat fishing mini game. Horrible boss fights, There is good moments in this game, But this game has first game syndrome. Unleashed the HD version of it. Because the warehog stages drag on for to long, and if you miss 1 medal. You have to do the stage all over again. And the graphics are So mind blowing, where the console can’t run it, it frame drops. And makes most of the graphics, as blurry as possible when you go fast. The day stages are enjoyable, but This medal system, completely ruins the warehog stages. Black knight because it improved everything on secret rings, Better controls, And better music, Should I go on. Sonic Hero’s, because the only thing, really holding it back, is playing the game 4 times in a row, just to get the true ending. Shadow 05, because this game Is underrated, Japan narrative, is way better than the English narrative, in every way. The only thing holding this game back, is you’re forced to play the game, over 10 times in a row, For the true ending, Which does make this game very confusing, In a first play through. Frontiers, because the updates, or I nickname them DLCs, Are the only reason this game is ranked this high. The biggest issue with this game is, they made sonic combat way to OP, where you can bypass, the guardians, or titans entire design, by spam pressing cross slash or stomp. Since super sonic has no cooldown, and the only cooldown normal sonic has is if you on top of the air, you can’t use the same attack again, but if your back on the floor, you can spam use the attack, over and over again, That slow down time, or freeze time. Aside from the combat most of my experience in this game is enjoyable and Most of the bad stuff in this game, is optional, and you have no reason to do it. Adventure 2, because knuckles stages. are not as good as adventure 1 knuckles stages. And Tails, full on is just hold 1 button to win. The sequel improved a lot from adventure 1, so obviously had to be ranked high. Sonic colours, because It’s just unleashed Day stages, but even better, the only thing that is trash in this game, is the bosses, And the horrible narrative, That’s about it. Sonic generations, because it only has 2 bad things about it, Planet wisp stage is The worst stage in the game. And The time eater boss sucks. That’s about it. Best for me is Shadow generations, since at worst, the game is decent, at best the game is fantastic. Because my only Minor issues with it is. Mephiles phase 3 could of been better, if we did not bypass it, by spam using time stop, and Neo devil doom could of been way better, if we did not use wings, and that’s about it.
Old games like Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 have aged fine in most areas people complain about. What the vast majority of people don't realize is that when games are ported to other consoles, certain areas are downgraded. Three examples: SA:DX's (which every version of SA1 post-Dc is based on) artstyle AND controls are inferior to the original version. Likewise, SA2:B (which yet again every non-DC version is based on) has worse controls, especially worse/borderline broken grind-rail controls, and other stuff. The "x game didn't age well" arguments on average fall flat, because people don't actually play the original versions of games and instead assume ports function the same exact way they did on original hardware.
This is cope, saying ports have certain areas that are downgraded like it’s a fact or natural is just not true Plenty of games have ports that do the games justice and even improve on the original, the sonic games have had historically bad ports out of incompetence plain and simple. It’s nobody but segas fault that the most accessible way to play some of the Sonic games are inherently worst versions of the game
@@Kollieprime9 You're literally the one coping. I stated a pure 110% fact. Some Sonic games are not remotely the only IP that has downgrades or things made worse in ports, and you can't blame Sega for all the faults when this happens regardless of the many developers who've ported a Sonic game. You're being ignorant, and this is actually extremely simple. A game is being put on new hardware, hardware it wasn't designed for, so... NATURALLY... it will come with new flaws. Budget and work ethic is entirely irrelevant and does nothing. This isn't a debate and there is no debate to be had. Input delay and less directional movement are some (but obviously not all) of the most common/universal issues with ports. If you think ports are 1:1 and completely superior to their original counterpart, then you have a hell of a lot more (if any previously) research to do.
@@windy3935 all you’re doing is putting words in my mouth lmao, I never said ports are all identical or broadly superior, nor did I imply only sonic has had this issue of bad ports. There are plenty of ports that are good though, and do not have any substantial flaws. You’re ignoring the obvious difference between a company just screwing up the game from bad decisions or incompetence and when companies actually take the time to make sure the product is handled with care. Newsflash, it’s still on sega for release broken games in states crap like the audio mixing being completely screwed up to the point that you can’t even hear the voices in some scenes of SA2:B. You’re really gonna sit here and pretend like that was some unavoidable flaw that they couldn’t have fixed before release? Get out of here with this shit take lmao Batman Arkham knights pc port was worked on by like 10 or 12 people. If you don’t see that as direct corporate mismanagement leading to the issues with the game on PC idk what else to tell you because we clearly aren’t living in the same reality
@@Kollieprime9 Your gaslighting is ineffective. You said and/or indirectly stated exactly what I previously mentioned. You called the OP "cope", literally disagreed with the ENTIRE idea of game elements being worse in ports (which is my argument... that you replied to), and used Sonic ports against me to make a "counter-argument" to the point just mentioned. "Plenty of ports being good" doesn't even address my argument in the tiniest sense. I didn't ignore anything. You created an ignorant argument without comprehending and understanding the core, and, without knowing what you're talking about. Once again, the company who works on ports is completely moot - no level of work ethic will prevents ports from some things in them feeling worst than they did in their original version. Newsflash, your desire to shit on Sega doesn't address my argument either. Once again, Sega and the Sonic series are not even remotely the only series affected by aspects of games being worst in ports. You're the only one here with shit takes, arguing against a pure fact as if this is debatable. BAA is not only one game but doesn't refute the utter fact that a large number of ports feel worse in certain areas compared to their original counterpart, which is the only reality there is, whether you accept it or not.
Refreshing to see someone who doesn't cry about SA2 treasure hunting, one of my favorite parts of the game. It's fine to not like the SA2 treasure hunting but people acting like it's the worst thing they've ever played is just silly to me lol
Explain Sonic Unleashed in the middle is allright, i know many fans always pick this as the best Sonic game because of the day time levels but the flaws in the werehog levels and the frame rate is the issue.
My top 4 Sonic games are: 1. Sonic X Shadow Generations, I agree that Shadow's portion is the GOAT, I like that part of it the most. I've had a lot of fun playing it, the story is quite interesting and emotional. It will be even better in late December when that Sonic 3 movie tie-in Tokyo inspired stage with Game Shadow taking on the form of Movie Shadow with some voice lines from Keanu Reeves, DLC becomes available. I became soo pleased when I found out that ever since release day the Digital Deluxe bonus stuff was available to be sold seprately as an update for players who didn't perchase that version of that game! 2. Sonic Adventure 2, in my childhood I had trouble with liking it soo much because of me not being talented enough to get though all 3 stories, so I kept failing and gave up. The biggest personal problem that the difficultiy caused for me was that until I became old enough to start checking out TH-cam videos and saw a walkthrough of the Finalhazard boss battle I never knew what the lyrics of that game's banger theme song "Live and Learn" were!!!!! In my childhood all I ever heard of it was the lyricless versions that get played as interesting hard rock main menu background music. I finally got through all the stages and boss battles in December 2022 and then it became one of my top favorite Sonic games and currently I think that that song is my #1 favorite one of all the songs I've ever listened to in my life! 3. Sonic Adventure 1, I've had the Dreamcast original versions of both of the Adventure games and a DC console that still works. That game was easier so I liked it more than the sequel in my childhood and I still think of it as one of the best 3D Sonic games. 4. Sonic Frontiers, I agree that especially with the free updates that game has been a step in the right direction. Like anyone else who played it I never liked the ridiculus pop-ins that that game is stuck with and 1-2 was the hardest cyberspace stage to ever S rank, but I finally did after a lot of tries and learning online what I had to do to S rank that stage and unlocked that Frontier Elite crown thing. If you S rank all the time trials on each island then the SpinDash gets unlocked.
My tier list: Sonic 3D Blast (all versions) (B Tier) Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut (A- Tier) Sonic Adventure 2 Battle (A- Tier) Sonic Heroes (A- Tier) Shadow the Hedgehog (C Tier) Sonic 06 (C- Tier) Sonic and the Secret Rings (C- Tier) Sonic Unleashed (Xbox) (B+ Tier) Sonic Unleashed (Wii) (A+ Tier) Sonic and the Black Knight (B+ Tier) Sonic Colors (Wii) (S Tier) Sonic Colors Ultimate (S Tier) Sonic Generations (A+ Tier) Sonic Lost World (Wii U) (A- Tier) Sonic Lost World (3DS) (A- Tier) Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric (C- Tier) Sonic Forces (B+ Tier) Sonic Frontiers (S Tier) (Best to date) Sonic ❌ Shadow Generations (S Tier)
Regarding Shadow the Hedgehog I would note that a lot of the edginess in Shadow the Hedgehog was only in the dub. Also the endings themselves weren’t meaningless. The point of the plot was that Shadow has amnesia and is obsessed with the past. It also explores the biggest criticism of Shadow in SA2 which is that he had no agency. It presented a lot of possibilities of what Shadow becomes based on what he believes and what he sees in his past. The last story subvert that’s in that he doesn’t need the truth of his past to determine his morality and can decide on his own. Also I would suggest playing the expert mode, it’s so much better that way. I’d recommend this video covering the story. th-cam.com/video/XMJgieQUkOs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=zOECevoJhuVDFJ2p
Call me crazy but my favorite sonic games are: 1-Sonic Adventure 2-Sonic Frontiers 3-Sonic 06 4-Sonic Adventure 2 I really didn't like the boost games (unleashed, colors and generations) at all.
During my playthrough of Adventure 2 this year I completely forgot to finish the game because I got so caught up rasing my chao for months... Still havent beaten the game. Maybe next time.
I personally think the first adventure game is better than the 2nd. I preferred the free roam but adventure 2 for me gets dragged down due to the knuckles and rouge levels. Tails is a lot better to play to
for some reason it always bugged me when they would have sonic grinding with his normal shoes. I liked the idea of him wearing the soap shoes in SA2 and grinding was a new unique aspect to that game.
Thanks for not bending on 06, so many people calling this peak and I’m like, no it’s ass it’s still ass, I played it THIS year for the first time and it’s sucks
Water from Hydrocity Zone! I think I don’t love this series *that* much and it’s clear going through the video that it takes a long time into the countdown before there are games that are good without caveats 😅 I really liked Frontiers and I thought original Generations was good so I’ll pick up Sonic X Shadow when that’s on sale. Honestly I don’t think Adventure 2 is as good as Adventure 1 which may be a hot take, idk.
Ah yes the werehog. Where you can 2 hit straight punch a robot, the SHORYUKEN it and Grab it mid air and piledriver it into a bunch of other enemies. Why the hell every gameplay of the werehog doing the must boring and shit combos, is not even that difficult, heck the werehog can even Gatlingun like luffy from one piece shoryken again and them do a slam a la crash or Do a GIANT PUNCH from the air to the floor like come on PEOPLE!!!
I have to disagree about Sonic 3D Blast though. I actually enjoy the game alot. You should try out the Director's Cut hack for the Mega Drive / Genesis. Also, it's not really a 3D game is it? It's not made of polygons.
Has enough time passed that we are now in the "06 is pretty good, actually" stage now? Crazy hearing that after well over a decade of people saying this was one of the worst games ever.
Well i like forces more than 06, the story is not a huge mess like Forces. As for the secret rings my brother prefer that over 06. If fans prefer boost levels from Unleashed, i say forces with no werehog and not overhate it so easy.
@@crackheadspeedway6788 Forces is always the least deserved of all by far. Phenomenal presentation, amazing OST, the best voice acting of its era for what it's worth, decent characterization for everyone except from Tails, the gameplay and level design lacks depth but is still fun, the Avatar and Wispons was a fun system, the game has great set pieces throughout levels, the environmental storytelling is great and the background are incredibly dynamic and some of Sonic Team's best. All of these except the gameplay being fun are OBJECTIVE positives. But no, BaD tAiLs LiNeAr LeVeL dEsIgN InFiNiTe MeH vLaSsIc SoNiC bAd StOrY uNdErWhElMiNg So GaMe 1/10 WeLl DeSeRvEd GuYs FoR rEaL. Get real. It's never deserved, it's arguably the most underserved hate any game in the franchise receives. I don't love it myself but it's literally fine, it's an OK 7/10.
My ranking is this: 1. SA2 2. SA1 3. 06 (this and SA1 could honestly swap depending on the day) 4. Heroes 5. Shadow 05 6. Unleashed 7. Generations 8. Shadow Generations 9. Frontiers 10. Lost World 11. Black Knight 12. Secret Rings 13. Colors 14. 3d Blast 15. Forces
Unleashed is mad overrated. Werehog takes up majority of the game and it's just a boring beat 'em up. The forced medal collection even makes you play the night stages even more because there's more medals in them and the levels are designed for you to find them.
Anybody else thinks this guy just makes likes he’s played these games? Most of the time this is not good, this is ok, like dude quit using other screenshots. It’s obvious he’s just ranking shit for the sake of not really knowing.
Sonic adventure 2 is overrated garbage, 2/3rd of the game is slow repetitive filler, it’s boring, has bad level design and take up most of the game, speed stages are not impressive either, almost every level is a linear ass corridor and unstable automated sequences, SA2 is only carried for the story and chao garden, heroes, unleashed, generations and colours are better sonic games then adventure 2 in every way possible
sonic adventure 1 and 2 are hood classics shoutout big the cat
Word 🐸
Its okay to like 06. Heck its okay to like any game. Even if you look crazy
MEGA BASED
After all "guilty pleasures" are a thing for a reason. As flawed as the game as, I can see why someone would like Sonic 06, because the game actually does have its redeeming qualities (namely, the controls are decent, some of the levels have good landscape, the music is good, the game has some interesting ideas, etc.).

saying infinite is better than mephiles is like saying a Disney remake is better than the original but that's just me,really the only "big" problem i have with this lol

Lost World just has a very forgettable story that could have been more interesting with the things it introduced (i.e. Eggman and Sonic teaming up or Tails getting kidnapped and becoming half-cyborg)

Also the endings themselves weren’t meaningless. The point of the plot was that Shadow has amnesia and is obsessed with the past. It also explores the biggest criticism of Shadow in SA2 which is that he had no agency. It presented a lot of possibilities of what Shadow becomes based on what he believes and what he sees in his past.
The last story subvert that’s in that he doesn’t need the truth of his past to determine his morality and can decide on his own.
Also I would suggest playing the expert mode, it’s so much better that way.
I’d recommend this video covering the story.

19:36 infinite is what now
“Sonic Boom is one of the worst things ever made”… looks over at my two 100% save files…
bruh.....
@@TotallyTubularJonathan What???
Sonic 3D Blast wasn't great but I would still play that before Altered Beast, lol.
I won't lie that it's a more substantial game than Altered Beast, but I actually rather enjoy Altered Best. Not sure why it's so hated.
Call me crazy but my favorite sonic games are:
1-Sonic Adventure
2-Sonic Frontiers
3-Sonic 06
4-Sonic Adventure 2
I really didn't like the boost games (unleashed, colors and generations) at all.
I personally found Black Knight and Shadow overhated, and I think the Adventures games are the two best.
During my playthrough of Adventure 2 this year I completely forgot to finish the game because I got so caught up rasing my chao for months... Still havent beaten the game. Maybe next time.
I personally think the first adventure game is better than the 2nd. I preferred the free roam but adventure 2 for me gets dragged down due to the knuckles and rouge levels. Tails is a lot better to play to
for some reason it always bugged me when they would have sonic grinding with his normal shoes. I liked the idea of him wearing the soap shoes in SA2 and grinding was a new unique aspect to that game.
Thanks for not bending on 06, so many people calling this peak and I’m like, no it’s ass it’s still ass, I played it THIS year for the first time and it’s sucks
Holy cow you’re hair is growing long. I haven’t watched your video for awhile. I’ve been getting busy lately.
Water from Hydrocity Zone! I think I don’t love this series *that* much and it’s clear going through the video that it takes a long time into the countdown before there are games that are good without caveats 😅
I really liked Frontiers and I thought original Generations was good so I’ll pick up Sonic X Shadow when that’s on sale. Honestly I don’t think Adventure 2 is as good as Adventure 1 which may be a hot take, idk.
Unpopular opinion: even tho i think SA 2 is a better game, sonic heroes has more replay value for the team sonic and dark campaigns.
I think I only ever played Generations to install the "Run around as a massive penis" mod. Good times
Water💦
11:50 thats a headshot not a hedgehog
Ah yes the werehog.
Where you can 2 hit straight punch a robot, the SHORYUKEN it and Grab it mid air and piledriver it into a bunch of other enemies.
Why the hell every gameplay of the werehog doing the must boring and shit combos, is not even that difficult, heck the werehog can even Gatlingun like luffy from one piece shoryken again and them do a slam a la crash or Do a GIANT PUNCH from the air to the floor
like come on PEOPLE!!!
Sonic frontiers does have a spindash
Water
W frontiers Take
I love 06
Sonic forces is the worst
I prefer Forces few game in this list but is still a disappointed and not bad everyone say.
I absolutely disagree. I love forces
@ forces you just go a straight line and nothing else
@ I had a absolute bad time with it when it came out
Forces is ass
I have to disagree about Sonic 3D Blast though. I actually enjoy the game alot. You should try out the Director's Cut hack for the Mega Drive / Genesis. Also, it's not really a 3D game is it? It's not made of polygons.
I love the Sega Saturn version
Ain't no way this dude just put Secret Rings and Forces higher than 06 :0
They're better than 06 on a technical level
Has enough time passed that we are now in the "06 is pretty good, actually" stage now? Crazy hearing that after well over a decade of people saying this was one of the worst games ever.
@@Olie986 To be fair I always thought 06 was good. Wasn't old enough to troll around the internet back then.
Well i like forces more than 06, the story is not a huge mess like Forces. As for the secret rings my brother prefer that over 06. If fans prefer boost levels from Unleashed, i say forces with no werehog and not overhate it so easy.
Project 06 #1
hate to be one of those people but where are the time stamps?
“ the level design in O6 is bad “
Bruh have you ever played project O6?
There’s a reason why they didn’t change the level design in project O6
The whole 06 segment felt like expected hate for the sake of expected hate, same for RoL and Forces.
@@KOTSOSMC2002nah Forces is always deserved
@@crackheadspeedway6788 Forces is always the least deserved of all by far. Phenomenal presentation, amazing OST, the best voice acting of its era for what it's worth, decent characterization for everyone except from Tails, the gameplay and level design lacks depth but is still fun, the Avatar and Wispons was a fun system, the game has great set pieces throughout levels, the environmental storytelling is great and the background are incredibly dynamic and some of Sonic Team's best. All of these except the gameplay being fun are OBJECTIVE positives.
But no, BaD tAiLs LiNeAr LeVeL dEsIgN InFiNiTe MeH vLaSsIc SoNiC bAd StOrY uNdErWhElMiNg So GaMe 1/10 WeLl DeSeRvEd GuYs FoR rEaL. Get real. It's never deserved, it's arguably the most underserved hate any game in the franchise receives. I don't love it myself but it's literally fine, it's an OK 7/10.
Sonic and the secret rings holy moly do I hate the gameplay it’s uncontrollable the story is good but it could have been better
Infinite over Mephiles is a WILD take
06 isn’t that bad lmao
Clicked off after the 06 take ngl.
I hate sonic boom games especially rise of lyrics sucky boring uninteresting and dang ugly
Sonic and 3D is more complicated than my ex and I
ok
My ranking is this:
1. SA2
2. SA1
3. 06 (this and SA1 could honestly swap depending on the day)
4. Heroes
5. Shadow 05
6. Unleashed
7. Generations
8. Shadow Generations
9. Frontiers
10. Lost World
11. Black Knight
12. Secret Rings
13. Colors
14. 3d Blast
15. Forces
Frontiers is the definition of mid with a bad story lol😂
Worst to best
Frontiers
Forces
Lost World
Secret Rings
06
Sonic Generations
Adventure
Black Knight
Unleashed
Shadow Gens
Heroes
Shadow 05
Adventure 2
Surprised frontiers is the worst, since they did 3 updates, to fix the game or make it more finished.
frontiers below 06 and secret rings is laughable and gens is better than unleashed
Ragebait ain’t working pal
Colors and frontiers over unleashed? you can tell he doesn't play sonic much
No he has a brain and realised 80 percent of the game was boring non sonic gameplay. Most sonic fans can tell u they hate the werehog
@LateefA519 pretty sure the werehog is merely controversial, some people hate it and some like it there's no MOST PEOPLE nonsense
Unleashed is mad overrated. Werehog takes up majority of the game and it's just a boring beat 'em up. The forced medal collection even makes you play the night stages even more because there's more medals in them and the levels are designed for you to find them.
The werehog drag the game and are too long, don’t forget the frame rate. Does anyone love the werehog levels more than day levels?
Anybody else thinks this guy just makes likes he’s played these games? Most of the time this is not good, this is ok, like dude quit using other screenshots. It’s obvious he’s just ranking shit for the sake of not really knowing.
I hate Sonic Colors frustrating shit game
Sonic adventure 2 is overrated garbage, 2/3rd of the game is slow repetitive filler, it’s boring, has bad level design and take up most of the game, speed stages are not impressive either, almost every level is a linear ass corridor and unstable automated sequences, SA2 is only carried for the story and chao garden, heroes, unleashed, generations and colours are better sonic games then adventure 2 in every way possible
