Agreed. It was excusable in the past when Sega didn't exactly have the world's greatest budget. Now, however, since they're apparently second only to Konami in Japan due to the merger with Sammy, I think they can afford to delay a game a while to make it better a la Nintendo. I'd rather wait an agonizingly long time for a great game than get crap quickly.
And that's what they're doing with the PS3 release of Sonic'06.
We really, really have no concrete evidence of this (word of mouth and a rumored pulled review by 1Up don't count; people can lie, and it's easy as hell to link to a non-existent page on a gaming website).
In fact, we have concrete evidence AGAINST this, since it's out in Japan already and Japanese fans lucky enough to own both versions say there are no noticeable differences, load times and all. (And here I CAN cite my sources: Hari Hari, to be exact, as translated by big smile.)
The amount of work that would have to go into fixing this game up just can't be done in two scant months, guys. Seriously. Getting your hopes up like this is only going to set you up for disappointment.
