Worst Sonic game in 2006: Sonic Genesis or Sonic 06?

[VolnuttHeroP64]

Which worst Sonic game is the worst? Sonic Genesis for the GBA or Sonic 06? Both of them are poorly rushed games, had promise but failed badly.

[The Devasia Mentality]

"Wasted experiment(typical sonic fare)" or "Hey, let's f*ck up a really good game(this should be outlawed)"

Verdict seems pretty clear to me.

So you think its a draw because both are bad Sonic games?

I say Sonic Genesis for the GBA. That's probably the worst port I've ever seen of any game in the series.

Sonic 0666 at least has good music, the original Sonic 1 for the Mega Drive / Genesis also does as well, just not the Game Boy Advance port of it.

In terms of public opinion most will say Sonic 0666.

Excuse me for adding 2 more 6's to Sonic 06, here. It makes for a good joke.

that joke is very unlucky & unhealthy. Same as the 13 Dwarf Lords in The Hobbit.

I say Genesis is more offensive because it's a lazy port that ruins an otherwise good game in basically every single way. 06 is just 3D sonic screwing up as usual, and compared to Genesis it actually took some effort to make.

Sonic Genesis is the worst Port of Sonic 1 & Sonic 06 is considered the worst thing ever.

But what had more effort? What's more offensive in the grand scheme of things? Sonic 06 is typical of 3D sonic built from the ground up, Sonic Genesis is atypical of Classic Sonic that's already been established as good. Ruining something that's always been good is IMO worse than screwing up something that they could never consistently do right in the first place.

Sonic Genesis of course.

Sonic 2006 was badly flawed but is still fun and enjoyable despite needing quite a bit more polish, much like Tomb Raider: the Angel of Darkness before it.

Sonic 2006 & Sonic Genesis are SEGA's Field of Baby Ducks

Sonic '06 is easily the worst, because of horrible unmemorable bland music, horrible VAs (it's 4kids, so auto-bad), hedgehog-human beastiality (that Amy is strangely in favor of...), and nothing in '06 remotely looks like it belongs in a Sonic game (very realistic humans, very realistic areas and scenery).

Sonic '06 is bad design all around from conflicting artstyles to very shoddy programming and gameplay to horribly written story and dialog.

Meanwhile, Genesis is just your typical bad port. Granted, a port that should've EASILY been done right the first time, but still, the core of Genesis is as good as the original. Genesis isn't a big deal. Sonic '06, on the other hand, is so infinitely worse that nothing could save that trash fire.

Yuji Naka left in the middle of that hell for a reason!

Eh, the story's better than Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty.
Seriously, were they just trying to zoom the suicide rate up or something with that whole "everything's pointless, life has no meaning" story in MGS2?
----

And the fanbase has zero room to gripe about the human-hedgehog love story, with the garbage I've seen the fanbase pull.
Seriously, you can't look up pictures of Vanilla the Rabbit without seeing inappropriate stuff show up.
She gets more Rule 34 than Rouge the Bat and Amy combined, for crying out loud!
The whole series gets tons of Rule 34, so the fans have no room at all to whine about Elise, when most of them have done far WORSE!

(Besides, Elise isn't the first human love interest Sonic has ever had. In early concept art (predating Sonic 1) Sonic had a human girlfriend named Madonna (who was a blonde in a red dress))

----

And while 4Kids was a terrible dubbing company (especially with the garbage they pulled with One Piece), their voices actors weren't "auto-bad".

Look at the praises Eric Stuart has gotten over the years.
Or the people praising Dan Green for his work as Mephiles the Dark in this game (his voice is half of what made him so popular with fans).
And even now, people whine about Sonic being voiced by Roger Craig Smith, because they had grown attached to Jason Griffith.

4Kids went out of bussines in the SatAM Market.

If you're going to play a Sonic GBA game, it's going to be Sonic Advance NOT Sonic Genesis! Sonic Genesis is one of the worst ports of Sonic 1.

i would easily say genisis because with sonic 06 they tried they honest to god tried but simply didnt have the time or manpower to handle such an amitious project since half the team got forced into secret rings half way into development but with genisis that has no excuse they lazily ported a game on to an engine that simply was not made to run it (dont get me wrong i love the advance trilogy) when the gba is more than 3 times as powerful as a genisis so it should be able to handle it but theres also the matter of why because sonic 1 was already easily avalible through mega collection witch was on every major platform of the curent generation and speaking of witch this was a gba game made in 2006 the ds was already out for 2 years sonic rush was out at this point who would be buying gba games in 2006 outside of japan
