Kingdom Valleg could be easier if there was an eagle that goes directly to the end of the stage. Everything on the map is literally useless, except for the mach speed section.
well, there's a mod that puts in levels from 06 into generations! even has a pack that readjusts the physics for playing as sonic, shadow, silver, and blaze! although it's only Sonic's story, and it only goes up to kingdom valley so far. still a great set of mods
Crisis City is more important to the plot but Kingdom Valley is the best stage from 06 and the stage that was marketed along with 06 so either one is fine
I remember me and my siblings days of Sonic....and I have one word. *OBSESSED*...and even though we kind of sucked in some of the locations, *shrugs* we where alright.
If all the glitches were gone, and long loading times.. the gameplay would honestly be fun as hell. It still was, once you learned how to play all the stages and master them. I still love this game and I understand the hate. The story sucked but damn the levels were so fun and beautiful. Dat music too.
I have never had a problem with this level. It's run smoothly every time I played it and feels more like an adventure game than it does like '06. If only the whole game was like this
Stuff like this shows that even broken games (don't get me wrong though, I enjoyed this game, a lot, but I can admit it is quite broken in a lot of areas) can be played through skillfully and can be fun to go through. Even the broken parts of the game coding can be used as ways of finding shortcuts. Just depends on the player pretty much. Unfortunately a lot of gamers today don't bother to even try to make games fun cause of crap like competitive events, not wanting to find secrets or glitches to enhance gameplay, arrogant reviewers who are too full of themselves who pretty much demand you think what they think of games, and a good bunch even resort to bullying those who do like lower rated games. Plus none of those people even act maturely, cause "following the crowd" apparently. In my own *personal* opinion, the game isn't as bad as everyone says. It controls a lot better than what everyone thinks, it's got level and environmental variety, it doesn't focus *entirely* on Sonic, and speaking of, I kind of like seeing a more sensible side to him apart from his confident cocky attitude. Not saying he can't have both, just shows him becoming a better hero. And if I may say, the story's ok. Better than no story period. For a rushed, un-debugged game, it did alright. And finally, no immature/hateful replies, my opinion, not yours, respect it or get lost!
True about what you said. I enjoyed the game myself, even if there were glitches and bugs, especially the OST. Mother of God, it's GODLY. And that's saying a lot, and this comes from a long time Sonic fan. The gameplay was also pretty good, if you're not a glitch finder, that is. The story to the three main characters (Sonic, Silver, Shadow) are , well, okay for each of them, but Shadow's a bit better. So for a conclusion, you're correct, the game did do alright, and it should be like that.
People complain about this game having too much glitches.. but after playing both Oblivion and Skyrim I can safely say this game is glitch-free compared to those two broken games.
I admit that those two games aren't perfect either. However, Oblivion and Skyrim are RPGs with a large field to explore.I don't think there are many game breaking issues either. On the other hand, Sonic '06 is very linear (which is not a bad thing) and has a lot of issues that ruin the game entirely. Getting stuck on the walls with Rouge and Knuckles, the Amigo characters have glitched attacks (like Knuckles or Omega), poor level design (cheap traps and vehicle sections for example), bad game mechanics (like you can't even stand on a rooftop without the game glitching on you, same as the sidewalks' edge). Shadow's campaign is really all about mashing X/A over and over again which is boring as hell. The story was bad too and I could go on like forever.
supersonic7218 It's not just the glitches that ruin the game. It's horribly designed. Knuckles' attacks can't even properly hit the enemies. Same for Amy. The controls just don't feel right. They wouldn't be bad, but they don't suit the level design at all. The boss battles are badly made too. When you fight the Egg-Genesis with Silver, you can't even see your own character. The Egg-Wyvern is boring and not challenging at all. The fights with Mephiles are basically killing a lot of enemies and that's it. The camera is horrible too. It changes it's angle in the middle of a jump. Sometimes, that occurs more than once. It's not fun to jump and have the camera angle changing 5 times. I could go on. But I don't think it's necesarry. I've beaten the game 2 times and have all the S ranks on the action stages and town missions by the way. I guess it was a bit enjoyable, but I wouldn't want anyone I know to play it and think that Sonic is like this.
I wish that this was the level used in Sonic Generations. Not only is this level the best put together but it just has so many cool things in it! Smashing Bridges down, Robots exploding and making blocks fly in every direction, tightrope jumping, eagle soaring, surfing on the wind, and running along a twisting and turning waterfall section that just looks so incredible! You have got to give this game this, it had alot of great concepts in it that just didn't get to reach it's full potential.
Sonic denies every freaking physics law in this stage, but then again, Sega never thought of ANY physics this game... To put it simply: "Physics? What are those?"
It's a shame this game was rushed. It was still pretty good, not the 0.5/10 unplayable abomination lots of people say it is, but if it hadn't been rushed, and all of that cool beta stuff was added into the game (The rainbow gem, day-night changing in levels etc) then this game would have probably been the best sonic game ever, and the sonic franchise would be completely different now than how it actually is. A moments silence for the Sonic 06 that could have been, please...
Blood1397violet I explain that, it is that most people hate this game: First by bad programming that has because they tried to make the game as soon as possible for the 15th anniversary , so this game has a huge number of glitches, some funny , but others may make you lose on one level, and also the controls may become uncomfortable , not to mention the camera tends, in some cases, to be placed in the exact spot to miss . And second, because many fanboys hate Elise, and that she and sonic should not be together and blah blah blah ... I personally , think it's really stupid the second point, and I think if the production team had taken the time and improve gliches , gameplay , etc , could have become a better game, even in one of the best games of sonic . I hope I have clarified your doubts.
+zigzakmodern If Elise had been an anthro character... and perhaps got kidnapped less (seriously, it was like she was trying to catch up to princess Peach) most people wouldn't have minded her.
@@blood_rose_queen fans are remastering thisngame and they are amazing. Now imagine if they had the resources of sonic team. Maybe they should work with them.
I don't care what anyone says this game in my book is as good as Sonic Adventure 2. Music is on point and yea the game had glitches and a lot of them but who cares. Nowadays you have games that have horrible launches and games that lie about the content they have(destiny) but people still play them and this game isn't as bad as sonic boom. Is it great? Maybe not but is it ok? Yes, I think the sonic team with there 3 games (this,unleashed,and generations) maybe didn't do there best but they did ok
I agree, if the creators made another Sonic game with this exact kind of feel to it but with cleansed gameplay and a better story, than it'd be an instant must buy for me.
I protest that the game is NO WHERE as bad as people insist it is, my issue is that it just feels unfinished. All it really needed was cleaning up... and a different writer *seriously the story is not good*.
Interestingly enough, based on the Sonic X Shadow Generations trailer, it seems like the new version of Kingdom Valley is based on this one instead of Shadow’s version
Man, who would have thought that one of the worst Sonic games 18 years later transformed into one of the best Sonic games and it was created by fan who never played the original game
Bro I swear most of the people that hate on it literally encountered 1 glitch and called it quits. This game is really good if you look past the glitches.
I've never played Sonic 2006 and I still think it's one of the best games ever made. And this level is one of my favorites and its music... is music to my ears 🎶
@SONICBOYREBORN234 So who are your favorite characters to play as in this game? I like playing as all of them except for Knuckles and Omega. Knuckles's attacks leave him open for enemy fire and Omega while tough is broken beyond belief.
Man, i wish Sega gave 06 another chance. If they just fixed the loading screens, controls and overal physics and removing the hubworld to make it more like SA2. Then this would probably be a great Sonic game.
I agree. This level & Crisis City were the only memorable levels in this game, IMO. If there's ever a Sonic Generations sequel, they should choose this level & improve on it.
It's crazy how it almost looks okay to play even though I distinctly remember this being the the only game I've ever returned. I was pretty young when the game dropped and my family was way too broke to consider buying me a next gen console so I wound up grabbing it used for like 8 bucks wayyy after the fact in 2011. As someone who loved the adventure games, this shit was intolerably clunky and miserable to the point that I lost all interest in playing after a day or two. So much for Adventure 3 *sigh*
Fun fact: with the purple gem you can break the Silver section. 1. Jump over him 2. Kill the robots 3. Use the gem and jump until the invisible wall stops 4. Keep going until the end of the section 5. You did it 👍👍
I know that these graphics are a little bit outdated now but I still can't believe how many people I've run into who say that these graphics are terrible or are trash. Seriously? And these are the same people who praise SA1's graphics so how can they go and say this game's graphics are trash?
If anything this was sega's first attempt to bring sonic to the 360 and ps3. They had no idea what the 360 and ps3 graphics and gameplay was running on so they took their chances and rushed the details of the game.
SonicJGB - What version of the game is this? I've watched your other level runs in this game, and you don't seem to have problems with loading or glitches.
We haven't got a completely 3D sonic game that wasn't just hold forward and run since the adventure series and Heroes, and those games were amazing. I'm not understanding why sonic fans ask for 3D sonic games but complain and bitch about the minor details about Sonic 06. This is why Sega wont listen cause people are picky. Truthfuly I put sonic 06 in the same class as a Sonic relic along side Riders, Adventure series,& Heroes. are fanbase seems to be confused at what they wants sometimes.
How are her hammer attacks delayed? I don't have any problem fighting as Amy except in the End of the world level when fighting the Iblis Biters. Actually no the invisibility isn't pointless. In the End of the World level if you become invisible before any search lights or Solaris Eyes see you, you can run right through the whole level without any enimies attacking you and without any objects being thrown at you by the eyes. Just don't go into the searchlights because they can still see you.
The whole game is sad; this was supposed to be the Sonic adventure of the decade and it looked brilliant in the trailers... and then it came out like this.
What exactly was Silver doing that encouraged Sonic to insist they didn't have time... time for what? Setting things up so Blaze is randomly in the cutscene after this despite no indication she actually made an appearance before hand....?
If you payed attention the egg carier its getting Destroyed by the Emerald of Eggman and the power of Iblis ( Elise ) and Induce an explosion Killing Eggman and Elise thats why silver dont have time to explain.
Pretty much played this whole game on PS3 with the exception of completing the last story. And I had a good experience. I had more fun with Unleashed though.
That's not really fair though. The graphics themselves are nice and are what you'd expect from an early HD game. Just because you don't like the art style doesn't mean the graphics themselves are bad.
I really dont get why people are putting this game in the same league and Lost World. this game was amazing to me, it felt like a sonic game shoukd feel. I personally consider it as good as the adventure series from the 3D gameplay too the stage designs.
@AdmiralOctopus You're maturity and well-thought out opinion of this game is to be applauded. If I wasn't on mobile, I'd thumb your comment up every day for the rest of my life.
