We all know sega hit an all time low with Shadow the Hedgehog, but what about their other bad moments? like these:
Sonic Adventure: It was an extremely good game in its time, but why name it directors cut (DX)? they just added some more stuff to it. just keep it the same name! Also, the mouth movements and sound placements were mediocre (talking but they aint moving their mouths!)
Sonic Adventure 2 Battle: Very well done. Graphics are excellent, mouth movements are good, and action is jam packed. Plus the chao garden is back. But they should have had more shadow levels, and i might have been satisfied if they put the action fields. (But thats probably just me)
Sonic X: Whoo... Lotta things i could say, but simply put- IT SUCKED. ALOT. STROYLINES NOT COMPLETELY HOW THEY SHOULD BE AND THEY CONDENSED THE GAME INTO, WHAT? 25 EPISODES? HALF OF WHICH WERE MOSTLY CRAPPY TALKING AND NO ACTION!
Sonic Heores: ALso nice storyline, but they went back to the "Kid-friendly" look. They were too smooth, no real edges like they should have. Their legs look like noodles for gods sake. I loved the teaming up part and switching back and forth, but there should be situations where you have to use all three teammates in a situation than just one. and i dont mean those switch gates. i mean like actually using them to their strenghts and working together (not talking about team blasts either). but also there should have been more moves, like knuckles and rouge being able to dig. where are the power up items. also, I HATE THE FIND 20 HERMIT CRABS FOR TEAM CHAOTIX!!!! gonk Also, their should be a setup where you plug in three controls, and all three players can operate different members of the team.
List all the other good points and bad points of other sonic games please and share with us!

I see where you're going with this one. I must say that that idea about where you can hook up 3 controlers and play as the three characters is pretty sweet!
Shadow the Hedgehog Omg what's with the gun? Sure I can understand the fact that they wanted to go with the consumers wants, but a gun?! Although it does come in handy when you just want to fly through the levels or beat a boss, I personaly like the old school way: double jump to hit the target. And the graphics on this game are very updated! I think however that they slacked on the actual game. Shadow's a little too shiny for my taste...I also enjoy that "choose your path" option. Very nice.
Sonic Riders This game doesn't really give you the option to just go back in story mode and just choose what level you want to go to. That drives me insane! Personaly I really like the game. But what's with the fact that the last levels where harder than the final boss? I also like the plot of the story and the new characters of the game: Jet, Wave, and Storm. The graphics again where great in this game! They could of done a little better on Sonic and his gang. They look like dolls to me...
Sonic the Hedgehog Didn't they already have a game out with this title?! There's not much to know about this game but from the trailers I've seen...The plot looks interseting and the graphics again are fantastic! Plus, there's another new character: Silver. He uses telekinesis as his powers. Awsome! Not to mention Eggman's new look! That raised my eyebrows! He actually looks like a normal person...?? I hear this game will come out this year somewhere around fall.
Sonic Rivals Okay, this game is for the PSP and it too is due around fall. Here's the info about it: What starts as a friendly competition between Sonic and Knuckles quickly gets intense as other rivals jump in to take on Sonic. In heated head-to-head races, Sonic and his opponent trip, shove, and vault over each other using boost moves and power ups while hurtling toward the finish line at breakneck speeds. Players will negotiate wildly twisting 3D tracks and narrowly avoid hazardous traps while watching out for the insidious Dr. Eggman and his myriad of contraptions. Whether playing alone or against a friend, it's always a two-player experience with new, innovative gameplay mechanics supporting the high-spirited race!
Sounds pretty sweet to me!! biggrin There's also a game coming out for the Nintedo Wii but they're still working on the title: Sonic Wild Fire*.

I played the first level of shadow, graphics like SH, and i hope they dont constantly switch characters throughout other lvls. (1 minute you got sonic, the next you got amy!) rolleyes

yeah, i think the games are just getting worse too...I thought Shadow having a gun was a bit too much (it's rated PG13 or something. quite right 2!) but i mean, they just wanted to try something new...i thought the game was alright (but maybe it's cuz i like shadow... sweatdrop yeah, that's probably it...)

i guess they could have done something else instead of a gun (and i never got to play sonic riders crying )
