Sonic needed a bullet in his head right after SA2, maybe 1, 2 was ok. After that meh, and it's too late now honestly to cancel him.

Let's face it... Japan is screwing up Sonic (well, was) and have been way restricted on the American input. I mean, Unleashed was way American. I'm still surprised that SOJ's division of Sonic Team actually hung the anime in the gallows to rot to welcome in an American art style(something that should've been done a long time ago.)JEV3 said:Blue Warrior said:Someone linked this on IRC yesterday.

The conflict between Sega of Japan and Sega of America has been around since forever, and is a large part of the reason why Sonic X-treme never came to be. I'm not surprised that this failure between the two to cooperate is to blame for NiGHTS. While it was a fun game, I cannot deny that it could have used a lot more polish, especially with the implementation of the Wii controls.
Now, I have heard that the recent new director for Sonic Team is at the very least cooperating with other branches of Sonic Team, and not forcing the ones responsible for Secret Rings and Black Knight to follow his new direction for Sonic while at the same time properly cooperating with Dimps to make sure the Wii got a polished version. Even if you don't believe Unleashed turned out good, I think that this is a very good thing, and hope that this is something that will stand out more than the very damaging rivalry between Sega Japan and SOA.
Mike_The_Hedgehog said:Well when Sonic dies Sega dies, and Mario will be flushed down the toilet by the ripple effect, Why? Because When Sonic dies all the N00bs will go hoarding over to Mario and eventually kill him, like N00bs do to AMOST EVERYTHING, And Sega will die because of how deeply Sonic is rooted to that company.
Wow.... I would feel betrayed but not buy another videogame...?Fyrus said:If he's canceled, Many people wont buy video games anymore. Sonic is just too much of a hit to be cancelled. And what about the video games he's already IN?! You cant get rid of those.

it's Night gameplay was 2 steps in the wrong direction

I know. 06 was kind of fun.Eliwood said:Well, you're right there. that is MY opinion, unfortunately, not that it maters, I kinda liked the Demo I played of 06' Even though Sonic was Super Slow, I kinda liked it... :P
Blue Warrior said:To say Sonic '06 is the only bad game is an extreme matter of opinion. Others may argue that Shadow the Hedgehog and Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity also weren't so hot either.
