    You know what?

    I just want the next game to not be so damn polarizing.

    Happy middle-ground probably is a better way of putting what I was trying to say, haha. I agree with this.

    I think the level design was bad and failed to capitalize on the control scheme. But agree to disagree ;)/>

    So just as much hope of that as there is of Sonic Adventure 3 then? :v:

    The bottom row was " / /00" (presumably 2000) so if it is a date, it has to be America's format.

    Why that? European format is Day/Month/Year, it would work too. But I guess we're thinking this one too much.

    Though the first date is 4/ /, which is most likely 4/1/16. So that would indicate that both dates are the American format... unless Ruby was using two date formats to throw people for a loop.

    But seriously, the only Sonic game that came out in 2000 was Sonic Shuffle, wasn't it? I guess there was also Sonic Cafe for mobile... but I personally wouldn't want something related to either of these things.

    Can they PLEASE just not mention Sonic 06 in general?
    literally every time they end up offending ME. it shouldn't work that way. they shouldn't be shooting one specific game in the foot but pretend everything else is just perfect.
    having some level of self-awareness is perfectly fine, and a little refreshing, but when you start hurting a very small unvocal minority, you're just killing a dead horse.
     
  15. They're poking fun at a game that is received by many as horrible and was almost a franchise killer. If you like the game fine, but this isn't something that you should be taking as some sort of personal attack.

    You're offended cause they like to mock the worst game in the series?

    Two stageplays, a screenplay, and an album
    If they want to restore the brand's integrity, this is exactly what they need to be doing. This attitude helps establish "bad" as a misstep for the franchise rather than the norm.

    Listen, you can be a fan of any game in the series, and that's cool, but if the game is NOTORIOUS for having almost everything go wrong in it, it's going to get mocked.

    06 fans, for being the adorable little hipsters of the franchise, surely need to have this in their heads.

    I think it'd be different if it were throwing jabs at 06 fans as opposed to 06 the product. Not to mention there were a few knocks on Boom in the very same article, too.

    I mean, I 100%'d 06, I have some fun playing it. I just don't get how you as a player are being offended by a franchise mocking its own missteps. Unless you were involved in the production, why take it personally?

    Oh no, it's offending you specifically? Hold on, I have just the thing for this...

    If everyone stopped doing what they do because it offends a "small unvocal minority," we would literally all be lifeless husks.
