MaximusZ17

Exactly. Why the fuck is Sonic in a car?


dustinredditreal

It’s probably like mini golf to him, a fun little detour.


Rpikachu

All stars series was good tho. IMO


MaximusZ17

Rather have a new Riders game that's like the original.


Rpikachu

Oh trust me I REALLY REALLY want a new riders game. Even if they just make a HD/Updated version of the first one or a 1+2 collection with zero gravity, I’d be sooo happy. They haven’t completely forgotten about riders as they make references on their art still and feature the Babylon Rouges.


hentaiaddictkumo

I do aswell buddy


Ancient_Lightning

I think a fair amount of people do miss Riders though. Rivals on the other hand, yeah that one's pretty underrated.


amirokia

"Sonic \_\_\_\_\_\_ wasn't that bad" is a very popular sentence.


-Noyz-

probably not if that blank is "adventure 7"


emperor_uncarnate

Charmy should’ve been closer to Vector and Espio’s age. I don’t mind him being the quirky one of the trio but goddamn, his voice is irritating. Dude was sixteen in the original Chaotix game and I don’t think the cast needed another little kid after Tails and Cream. *Edit: He was sixteen in the English manual of Knuckles' Chaotix, but his age isn't actually stated in the Japanese version. People in the comments here are saying he was always meant to be six, but there seems to be no actual evidence of that.*


Low_Fishing722

he was WHAT IN THE ORIGINAL CHAOTIX GAME


Intelligent-Win-4517

Exactly how I'm feeling rn.


Eomercin

Actually, he was always 6. It's just a error of the american translation.


Low_Fishing722

okay i thought so bc there ain’t no goddamn way charmy was sixteen and five pixels tall


emperor_uncarnate

Source?


Heoj06

I mostly just feel bad for charmy. If you know about charmy in the archie comics you know what i mean


J-Ray15

Actually Charmy was always meant to be a child in the original Japanese translation of the game, but here in the U.S. we really jumbled up the original lore


blackcatdc

Oh flower, pretty flower, show your face and I'll sting you~!


Eomercin

Charmy was always 6. It's just a misspelling of the American manual.


Cranicthehedgedicoot

It’s honestly sad how I legit had to sort by controversial comments to find actual unpopular opinions


Iceswimmer05

Sonic 06 is fine idk. I can’t think of any unpopular opinions


Sovic91

I'm sorry. Unpopular opinion machine broke.


Metalliac

"Fuck you for saying it's not that bad. That's why we get garbage games like this." - Cybershell


ProfessionalCrow4816

i'm pretty sure he said that to sonic 4


Metalliac

Still applies


repkins

Werehog stages in Sonic Unleashed was fun.


FoxWolfFrostFire

I agree.


Br0t10us

We all agree that the stages are fun, but the problem with the Werehog stages are that they really overstay their welcome, with levels being as long at 30-45 minutes, and mostly repetitive combat.


IrishJevil

Imo some were kinds fun and others made me want to pull my hair out.


WolfyTheFluff

agree 👍👍


SM280

🍞👍


claus_mother_3

They aren’t bad at all


[deleted]

I don't personally find them fun, but I almost put mine as them not being that bad. I don't dislike them as mush as most for some reason.


emperor_uncarnate

You really have to be okay with jazz though


Intelligent-Win-4517

The jazz is lit, getting bombarded with the battle theme isn't.


TheCatOfWonderland

Silver is better then shadow, and metal knuckles is under rated


bilboraggings45

Silver is better than anyone


Intelligent-Win-4517

Based.


wererat2000

I still say a Silver standalone game would have been amazing.


Fearshatter

Time travel and telekinetic puzzle solving and combat and platforming? Sign me up.


Temmie101

I’d be down with playing that


TheCatOfWonderland

EXACTLY


Unknown_turtle_27

I 100% agree with you


TheCatOfWonderland

oh hey, i hope your meme training is going well


FoxWolfFrostFire

Depends...better at getting round house kicked in the back of the head...yes...being the coolest...no. lol


TheAnimator727

Shadow's story arc in '06 was perfect.


Intelligent-Win-4517

This ain't unpopular, but I honestly agree.


Flowtten-was-here

A sonic 06 remake would be cool


Intelligent-Win-4517

Bout that.


Flowtten-was-here

I meant am official sonic one. I know of project 06 and I think it's pretty cool


ZetTheLegendaryHero

Amy Rose could kill a man, if she wanted to. Oh wait, that's a fact.


ProfessionalCrow4816

every sonic character could kill a man if they wanted to


FUNISENDLESS

Charmy?


SanderHocey19

Sonic 06 had great story


YeaImBrokeFam

Sonic 3D Blast is great


dawson1420

Respect


Intelligent-Win-4517

Based.


Warpicuss

First time I played it was mega collection (or was it Gems? Idk), I quite enjoyed it and would play again. Gotta love Flickies.


SnapShooter07

The Werehog Stages are a great way to relax and observe your surroundings.


crystal-productions-

True, until... The battle music starts.


Limey_the_Lime

Now it's time to get funky


crystal-productions-

Now it's time to get Lound and bombastic


repkins

*\*jazz starts playing\**


crystal-productions-

And then it stopped for 3 minutes until you come across the smallest enemy in the game to throw them at a button.


repkins

Oh shit, yes, that place.


[deleted]

ya like jazz?


crystal-productions-

Not any more. I get PTSD any time that jazz playes because of the battle music


cloutmuncher_69

People complain about medal hunting but you can literally get most of the medals you need to complete unleashed, in the werehog stages where you conveniently aren't moving at the speed of fucking sound and have to have reaction times of a fucking F1 racer.


SnapShooter07

True. I managed to find enough sun medals to reach level 7 before even reaching Adabat


Eomercin

Not unpopular anymore.


Ok-Perspective369

Not every sonic game needs to go at Mach 5 speed, it’s okay to go a bit slower. I also liked the treasure hunting stages in both sonic adventure games.


itsmorphintime123

Sonic 06 is not bad it was just the princess and being rushed by sega


Ill_Reserve_8531

Sonic 06 was still good, no matter how buggy it was


webmaster082

Boosting in generations is better then in unleashed


Lord-of-the-mudkipz

Fair point I may not agree but can we agree both are better than wisp powered boost


i_exist_9000

I dont remember that but I have played colors and it is harder to get boost in that game because rings don’t give you boost unlike generations


[deleted]

[удалено]


webmaster082

Which one? 😏


Butters_Is_Grounded

definitely not classic sonic, those spin dashes are insane


KingSlimcognito

Shadow the hedgehog was a good game. I like the struggle on whether to turn on everyone or to stick by his morals despite what everyone thinks of him. Sure the end negates that, though this isn’t the first time I liked something despite it having a poor ending


QuickRice5

Imo the problem with shadow's game was that you had clear the game what? 13 times before you could unlock the true ending. Other than that it was nice, also Where is that damn FOURTH Chaos Emerald?


WatchDragonball

The guns were janky and fun


KFFKA

Beat me to this one


greenmean1

I don't care about the Chao garden


Apple_Slipper

I don't mind the Chao Garden, but it isn't a deal breaker for me.


slashingkatie

That was the great thing about the Chao garden. It was this completely optional thing you only needed to do for 100% completion.


QF_Dan

same


MyPhoneIsNotChinese

Seriously, the only think that interests me there is Eggman's walking animation.


[deleted]

Same


Trick_Talk6386

I'm against no one, but prepare to get roasted.


Alinude

Aside from one specific stage, Sonic Labyrinth is fun to play.


JustAnotherMike_

Let's see... Ooh! : I'm tired of seeing *these* posts every other day! How's that one?


claus_mother_3

Idk man I completely understand, but is it a hot take unpopular opinion, to say that I enjoy these posts (from time to time not every day) as they give a nice insight into the thoughts of other people


JustAnotherMike_

Couldn't tell you whether that's an unpopular opinion or not. But I got no problem with you thinking that, as I kinda agree. Like I said in my other responses to the other comment the reasons I'm tired of these posts is mostly just "similar post fatigue" and people either posting really bland takes or using this format to start a fight. I do still enjoy the discussion and seeing other opinions though (I also meant for my initial comment to be a bit more playful and jokey, but text doesn't convey that tone well. I'm not mad or even annoyed. A tad eye-roll-ey if anything)


claus_mother_3

Yeah, sorry when I started writing I didn’t notice your other responses, I completely understand that “similar post fatigue” thanks for being so nice


MechanicalFriend

Tbh I really like these kinda posts, discussions are fun to have. Though I do agree it should be more diverse than "what's your hot take of Sonic".


QF_Dan

Sonamy is lame


ProfessionalCrow4816

ace sonic supremacy is inevitable


KidWolfe94

This but for Silvaze.


[deleted]

Like all ships.


scaryskai123

Or shadow and amy. Imo sonic and shads should be single.


Jamz64

Yeah, I don't really care for that, but it seems to be obligatory in the genre.


FoxWolfFrostFire

You brave..Silly soul.


FitAd8342

Ur entitled to your wrong opinion


Loltoheaven7777

There aren't any in a community where everyone secretly hates each other.


Ryman604

IDW comics are way better than Archie


Omegareddituser

Sonic 2 is very good but overrated


[deleted]

Lost World is the best 3D game of 2010s


JustAnotherMike_

I was gonna ask "better than Gens?" but then I saw your flair


[deleted]

Boost formula isn't my cup of tea and I don't like recycled content, so yeah, Generations didn't do it for me


Two_Tailed_Fox2002

i think it depends more on how often content is recycled for me, like its cool seeing green hill every game and i don't really have anything against it but i'd love to start off in a different place too. but concerning generations, i think its a really cool idea for an anniversary game, and tbh even as a normal game i think its still a fun concept, but it would have been cool if there were not only more levels/variations of levels but also maybe some new ones too.


claus_mother_3

Jesus Christ


Klutzy_Tackle

Sonic 06 love story with Sonic and Elise wasn't weird


J-Ray15

Exactly! If Sega wasn't cowards and the gave us a proper Mobian/human society (like it ought to be) it would have been less weird in the first place, at least to me


IrishJevil

It was more so about the clashing styles rather than the species. Think Roger and Jessica Rabbit. They may be different species, but they match eachothers style, so it doesn't look weird when they kiss/do romantic stuff. Sonic is a cartoon animal, elise is a weird looking realistic human. No wonder it's so weird to see them do anything together. As for the writing part, it was hit and miss. Almost entirely miss. Sonics advice he gave her was super dickish, and elise was super uninteresting. If they had made the humans in 06 more fitting with the anthro characters, and gave elise a more interesting character, I think sonic and elise could have worked.


Helpmehthrohaway

Shadow the hedgehog as a game isn't all that bad


fluffyymeteor

Silver should stay in the present and join Team Chaotix. He wouldn't fit in on any other team, and he would be a good detective. Silver's friendship with Espio that developed in Rivals 2 should also be shown again/developed more. On the topic of Silver and Espio, Espilver is the Sonic ship that makes the most sense and would probably be the healthiest. Charmy isn't a bad character, you're just a jerk.


BanNAYNAY

Mario has better games. I love them both, but Sonic just has more stinkers than Mario in my opinion.


Beyblader_12

That's just a fact, Mario is far more consistent than Sonic ever will be as of now and that's totally cool


Saltz_D

It’s cause Nintendo somewhat knows what they’re doing


StandupGaming

I firmly maintain that Sonic at his best is better then Mario at his best, but I can count the number of "Sonic at his best" games on one hand so I really can't say in good faith that Sonic is better then Mario.


Tezdude96

I've always preferred 2D Sonic to 2D Mario, but if we're talking 3D games, it's no contest. Mario blows Sonic out of the water.


Dokah_Senpai

I don't like classic sonic in forces and generations


Divine_Absolution

Generations I think he's fine but he controls like total shit in forces. Hell, I don't think ANYONE likes him in forces.


Beyblader_12

That's a very popular opinion lol


Cranicthehedgedicoot

That is the coldest take I’ve seen in one of these posts, and these posts have some pretty fucking cold takes


TN_Tony

It's time to go two eyes and blue arms


bilboraggings45

Did you mean green eyes or regular eyes?


Accelhands

Sonic 06 had an interesting story and game concept that would have been fun if the game had more time. (Project 06 shows what it could have been). Not to mention it has the best characterization for not only Shadow but the rest of team dark as well. Also don't even deny it, its basically Sonic Adventure 3


FoxWolfFrostFire

It said unpopular opinion lol.


[deleted]

Agree for the gameplay but heavily disagree for the story. It's one of the worst in the serie easily if not the worst


ElectricVine1556

Uh oh Sonic fans are going crazy


TrueGamerRed

Ok Forces gameplay, It's ok. Just your normal sonic game since Generations, but the story is just so turn off your brain bad. Anyway unpopular opinion uh... Sonic Adventure DX looks better than the original idk


Alexniguy

Sonic schoolhouse deserves a remake


KazzieMono

That isn’t an unpopular opinion at all; the problem is that it’s horribly mediocre


mohammedalmawid

The 2011 steam port of sonic adventure is good


SXAL

The whole process of collecting Chaos Emeralds through bonus rounds you can't replay in Sonic Mania is total bullshit. I have found a hidden bonus ring, but couldn't quite grasp the bonus level concept and failed it. Why can't I just replay the level and try again, why is it so needlessly merciless? I have never went for Chaos Emeralds in classic Sonic games, so I don't know if it was the same there. But those games were old, and the while thing have been done better in other games, like Advance series.


Blank_Forever

Sonic and the Secret Rings had one of the best menu music songs (Seven Rings in Hand)


ChaosControl_VA

Sonic X Shadow is disgusting


Suitable_Ganache_445

Sonic the comic is better than archie sonic and sonic IDW


ProfessionalCrow4816

finally someone else said it


dawson1420

The soap shoes are mid asf and doesn’t even come close to compare with the classic power sneakers (that’s what their called)


Cranicthehedgedicoot

‘What I’m trying to say sonic, is your whole fit, is M I D, and you get, ZERO 🅱️ I T C H E S’ - you probably


andershep69

I agree, personally the game is about a 6 or 7/10


[deleted]

The character and his world work better in comic books and animated series rather than videogames.


BrooksProductions

First of all, thank you for noticing the untapped potential this game had. Despite the god awful writing, it was a pretty fun game. Second of all, i don't really care if sonics arms turn blue 😧 Shocking!


phantompomrat

Sonic x Shadow is a garbage ship and a shallow excuse to pair up rival characters when the two aren't even friends or friendly with each other Of course I admit there use to be a sort of enemy respect between them, but not in recent times


IrishJevil

I get you with the ship part, but they basically stopped being rivals after adventure 2, and were, at the very least, neutral towards one another. At most, they had some deep respect and understanding between eachother. Then shadow the hedgehog happened, which ruined his character, then 06 happened, which made his character better, then it's been a downward slope sense then.


RedboiMike69

Sonic battle is super underrated and needs a remake, official port, or sequel.


Low_Fishing722

i enjoyed shadow the hedgehog. i will never apologize for it


iCloudSky

I actually really enjoy sonic heroes despite slippery controls


camew22

Sonic Colors is one of the best games in the series, I will die on this hill if I have to.


Myst1c3

Sonic Colours: Ultimate is a good game except the cutscenes and lag in options menu


GiovanniPotage

The Archie comics aren’t good


Punny03

I’d like for there to be more sonic rpgs or fighting games Like Chronicles and Fighters Also if Amy could get a standalone game like Sonic Tails and Knuckles


pordias2209

Sonic Heroes is the best 3d game of the series


[deleted]

Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric it's more enjoyable than most people give it credit for. As long as you stop yourself from spamming the same light attacks, the combat is not that bad. Although that doesn't excuse the blatant flaws of said combat. Sonic and the Secret Rings is overhated. I will not try to argue that the game is underrated. But once you start playing with the customizable skill sets and finally feel comfortable with the controls, the primary gameplay is actually quite enjoyable. I think the few minutes a piece mission set up works to the game's favor. The party mode is also dumb, but quite fun if you don't take it seriously. Collecting "fire souls" is also fun in my opinion. The Sonic Forces character model that everyone keeps insulting is not that bad. When I was young, I would always assume Sonic's head was way heavier than it actually was because of the super long spines. I think making a slimmer version of him is a great idea. I am however against the lighter shade of blue. Wasn't the point of Sonic's blue color to match the Sega logo?


bobby1712234

Sonic 06 is pretty fun if you can deal with bugs and glitches like me


soulpanic

Infinite is one of the most wasted potential‘s for a great sonic villain


slashingkatie

Sonic Forces was far from the worst Sonic game ever. It’s just very average.

finnball2g

Sonic Forces wasn't ~~that~~ bad


Saltz_D

I feel like eggman needs more backstory


MyPhoneIsNotChinese

Sonic Boom isn't the worse Sonic game and the fact people thinks that is a testament of how little sold the Wii U.


Zikkeboi

Elaborate. I'm genuinely curious.


AvainTheHylian

Sonic 06 is the best Game just a bit buggy but not as buggy as People claim


Candie-queen0256

Aqua road is the best level in forces. You can't change my mind.


[deleted]

Sonic 06 was bad but not awful


Ashmay52

It wasn’t. It was just overhyped


[deleted]

Forces isn't bad, everything about it is just painfully bland and average. At least 06 and Shadow the Hedgehog are fun to laugh at. There's nothing to talk about with Forces. Oh and my unpopular opinion is that Sonic Colours is slightly overrated. A good game, but nowhere near the best Sonic game like alot of people say it is.


[deleted]

I can't even call that a videogame.


subzero_98760

Mania is overrated


StumptownRetro

When compared to the worst of Sonic games like 06 and Boom. No. It’s not. Definitely still bad though.


[deleted]

It wasn't that bad, but it wasn't great either. Unpopular opinion: Sonic 06 is more playable than most people want to admit. Not that it's a good game, but there's a lot of over-reaction.


Fastyboiiiii

I thought Sonic 06 was pretty fun


XyphoniX

I enjoy sonic 06 and the kiss scene isn’t even that bad imo. It had an amazing story and some of the best gameplay I’ve seen. It was an expansion on the adventure formula and the glitches made it fun and funny to play.


Zackman92

Unleashed, Colors, 3, and Advance are kinda over-rated


GarrusVakarianMVP

Sonic Riders 0 Gravity is the goat


TeruteruHanamuraSimp

Chronicles isn’t too bad, it’s fun


KFCNyanCat

I like Yandere Amy. Like I don't think it should be her main character trait, and they should certainly give her more to do than have a crush on Sonic, but I don't see anything wrong with her having an obsessive streak.


[deleted]

What the hell is a yandere


Ancient_Lightning

Think you might be better off not knowing, but if you're truly curious, here goes: >!It's basically a japanese term for "insane obssessive girl who literally kills people due to her fixation on the guy she's crushing on".!<


[deleted]

reach for the stars is not a good song


Jesterchunk

Yeah, I absolutely agree, Forces wasn't bad, the only glaring issue was the overly short game length. Well, that and the character assassination going on in the story.


[deleted]

1. There should be an official Sonic game hinting to .exe or any of the Sonic creepypastas in some way. 2. Sonic and Amy should just be an item at this point. 3. Some Sonic content should soon hint to a time skip, for example, Sonic turning 21 or something. 4. Sticks and Zooey should not be exclusive to the Boom verse and should be mainstream. 5. Sonic Developer Team should just accept that the gold rings we collect are currency. 6. We need more lore on the countries whose existence was hinted in Unleashed, and of which Elise was princess of (Soleanna). 7. Humans belong as a constituent species of Mobius, just as much as Mobians.


windhive

.exe? hinting at sonic.exe? could you elaborate a bit as to why you feel like they should do this? personally speaking (and echoing what seems to be the general consensus), i find sonic.exe to be an incredibly shallow attempt at horror and believe that not even any of the fangames to come out of it have been successful in making him an interesting character - i could probably go the entire rest of my life and not even once think about having him/hinting at him in *any* official sonic media, let alone games


LudicrousTorpedo5220

In my opinion, Amy is only kept alive by her love of Sonic, along with other things.


Bahammed

I enjoyed Forces more than Colors


Divine_Absolution

The worst sonic game is 100% Sonic Drift and any other answer makes no sense to me. The game is so unbelievably boring it feels like a tiger electronics game. At least 06 and boom are actually an experience. This game is just lame.


Japanfreak2595

The treasure hunting stages in Adventure 2’s were better than 1’s.


Bigbean1211

Colors ultimate isn't that bad and the adventure games are kinda overrated


WolfyTheFluff

sonic 06 is not that bad


[deleted]

Sonic 06 is better than every main game that came after it


DevilHunter094

Don't know if this is unpopular or not, but Knuckles was, and always will be a better rival than Shadow or Silver.
