Bruh, why does everyone hate Sonic ‘06? The music, voice acting, and cutscenes are god like, Mephiles is the best Sonic villain ever (don’t you dare try to say otherwise), the glitches are helpful, Silver has more character development than Goku did in Dragon Ball Super, and if you wouldn’t whine about the controls for at least ONE GOD FORSAKEN SECOND, the levels are fun to play. There’s many more upsides to Sonic ‘06 than even Sonic Forces.
What else is there... oh yeah, MEPHILES IS THE ONLY VILLAIN IN A CANON SONIC GAME TO ACTUALLY STRAIGHT UP END SONIC’S LIFE.
(By the way, if you don’t think Sonic ‘06 is canon, you’re wrong. At the end of ‘06 (after Solaris resets ZA WARUDO), it’s shown that Elise still remembers the events of the game. For even more clarification, Sonic Generations has Crisis City in it (the Time Eater had to get it out from SOMEWHERE), and Sonic Colors on the DS has Tails references the team up with Sonic, Shadow, and Silver in ‘06. Trying to say I’m wrong just goes to show you have never played Sonic ‘06.)
