14 Video Games You Should Never EVER Play
6. Sonic The Hedgehog (2006)
Since half of the Sega team worked on Sonic the Hedgehog 2006, it was expected to be the best Sonic game since the original series.
In mid-production, the team was split in half; one team was tasked to finish the game while the other team was reassigned to Sonic and the Secret Rings. Because the team lost half its members and the game was rushed out for Christmas, it was incomplete, had terrible graphics, ridiculous glitches, and painful loading times.
The game is so amateur, you can hear the actors screwing up their lines. When Shadow is given an order to go to Wave Ocean, the actor flubs his dialogue and repeats it.
Even the manual has errors. The instructions states that Tails can fly until the Flight Meter depletes even though there is no Flight Meter in the game. It also states that Chaos Drives can level up your equipped abilities… but there are no Chaos Drives… nor are there level up mechanics.
Sonic the Hedgehog creator, Yuji Naka, said that he would never work on a Sonic game after Sonic 2006 was released. After 14 years later, Naka has been true to his word.
