Even insinuating any of this is better than an awkward/annoying spinoff is silly and almost hurtful considering how much of an impact Sonic 06 will continue to have on the franchise for years and years.
lol dude I'm sorry if my opinion hurts you but I had more fun playing Sonic '06 than I did with Black Knight, sorry. And I realize it's like comparing getting kicked in the balls with getting kicked in the face but at least in Sonic '06 there was speed (and atmosphere) to be found. Black Knight didn't even provide you that. There were no SONIC STAGES in Black Knight. Game was like playing as a secondary character for the entire thing because Sonic never let go of the sword, which slowed him down every second.
If you think Sonic 06 is in anyway a good game, you are not a smart person.
Sonic '06 is certainly not a good game. If you want to read my review for it up on Gamefaqs I gave it a 4/10 score. You can also read my Black Knight review, where I scored the game with a 2/10. These are not good games, but any Sonic fan who believes that Black Knight's better than a Sonic game that actually features SOME traditional Sonic gameplay (as broken as it is) I have to seriously question their taste. The amount of "damage" either game did to the series is irrelevent. I base my opinions on games on how I felt playing them, not what they mean for a company that I have nothing to do with outside of a journalistic (and fan) capacity.
I know from when I was into the game, I was just being a Sonic fanboy about it. If I can learn from my mistakes, anyone can.
Well I'm glad you have learned from your mistakes....you should always form your own opinions on games, not just like/hate games on principle. And that's why I won't change my opinion on Black Knights vs. Sonic '06 just because one was a spinoff and one was a main entry. The main entry had redeeming qualities, (they were hidden under a lot of crap, but they were there) whereas Black Knight was a complete and total trainwreck that literally had me
biting my Wiimote in frustration.
