Feeling down on Valentine's Day, Sonic-GAF. I didn't even get a
card or a dollar plushie. I usually get one even though we usually do something the week after (I think he forgot).
The most annoying thing, and this is something Pokecapn complains about in that video, is that there's literally no time between when you're presented with a situation, and when Omochao pops up to tell you what to do next. It takes a lot of the reward out of it because you're never given a moment to work out things for yourself.
I noticed that too. Omochao should give you hints when you're having trouble during the level or fighting the boss.
In Green Hill, it made sense for Omochao to tell you what to do in a tutorial sense, but I didn't expect it to tell you
what to do for everything. That takes so much out of figuring things out for yourself and the satisfaction you feel thereafter. It makes traversal a little boring, I guess.
I foolishly spent $60 on Sonic 2006. It was the first and only game I had for my Xbox 360. Even though it was Oblivion and Gears of War that really solidified my decision to get an Xbox, I technically bought the system for Sonic. That same 360 red ringed two weeks after I got it and was at Microsoft's repair center for over three months because they actually lost my console. I got Xbox 360 games for Christmas that I couldn't play until it was nearly March. It was a dark time.
That video acts as a little bit of absolution, in a way. If somebody wants to take that away from me, be it by claiming I'm lying (or hacking), or otherwise making excuses for the game... well, I can't let that stand without saying something.
Maybe that makes me a little bit crazy.
Don't get me wrong, though. I do laugh at a lot of the comments I get. Especially the ones from what are probably little kids who seem to be blind with rage that I dare hate on their favorite game ever.
Yeouch. That's pretty bad. Nice to know that the video was made as a 'theraputic' kind of thing, though.
I can't believe they're claiming that you're lying and hacking to make the game look bad even though that's the way it is by default.
I like this recent comment:
REAL reason why the game is bad: It was rushed by MS and Sony because they said basically "Finish this game in time no delays or you'll never have a sonic game on our consoles again". Not kidding. Thats why the game was so fucking bad.
Why do people constantly spout this story when it's unfounded?
And this one:
I just wanna say that none of this happened on the PS3 version that I played. (the stuff in the video.) I think the voice actors are great and the story is fine.
I played the PS3 version where the framerate was poor, glitching was all over the place, and for some reason, it seems even worse than the 360 version in terms of load times. It was awful, and the narrative is garbage and cannot be salvaged. How people think Sonic 2006 actually has a passable narrative is beyond me.
This only technically proves why the game is BROKEN AS HELL, but doesn't prove why the game is necessarily bad. I mean yes a broken game can be really annoying and can lead to people saying its really bad because it's broken, but don't you think it's a personal thing to say if a game is bad or not?
I don't even know what this means.
