    I have NEVER seen a review that not only incorporates a narrative through line into the review, but manages to explain significant portions of what the viewer needs to know through that flows well into explaining the history behind the subject. This might be one of my favorite reviews done on this site. I cannot wait to see what else you have to show.

    Sonic 06 was a game that had SO MUCH potential. Like you see there was something there, which Sonic Project 06 proved. If they had more time to develop the game, it would have been one of the best Sonic games of that time.
    Also AMAZING VIDEO! Please make more with no rush because this was such a fun time. Thank you for this! ~

      And you can also try out the legacy of Solaris what is the Xbox 360 mod of Sonic 06 which really does improve on the playing experience and it's also much more complete then project 06 for right now the only thing we need right now for project 06 are the cutscenes the boss fights and the final level and then we'll play project 06 over the original game any day and Sonic 06 is like the modern version of Sonic adventure 3 that we should have if it wasn't Rushed but thanks to legacy of Solaris and project 06 they really do feel like Sonic adventure 3 when you start playing even the move sets for the characters will have references to previous Sonic games that came before and you'll definitely liked them once you give him a try and I promise you you'll never go back on Sonic 06 ever again for Xbox or PS3

    Ok so, first of all, your art and animatics, amazing, genuinely unique and made this stand greatly above many video essay channels. The amount of effort you put into this cannot be understated.
    Your script and storytelling, genius. The back and forth between yourself and future you, the imagery you used to paint a picture of each scene in-game, the way you broke down how the hype built up for the game and how development shattered, I cannot see anyone doing it better.
    Your research was fantastic, especially for a retired fan. As an avid fan, I knew most of the development stuff, but the E3 stuff I had no idea about. You genuinely broke it down in a way that even young kids could understand, and your transition into recognizing the work fans have done to breathe life back into the game was heartfelt. It's something I relate to as one of the folks who worked on the Sonic Riders mods you may have seen online nowadays.
    I cannot tell you how excited I am to see your next work. Excellent stuff through and through.

    one of the best... OR THE BEST video regarding this game. I had the opportunity to play it in my xbox360 when I was a kid and it was my entrance to falling in love with this franchise and its world. Time passed and I stop following anything related to sonic... until one day I found one sonic song and think to myself "omg, I remembered this ost! It's Crisis City from the sonic game I used to play!" I directly go to youtube and search for the ost and listend to the whole thing, such a beautiful experience. At that moment I was 100% certain that Sonic 06 was the BEST sonic game of all the franchise because I remembered it from my childhood being so good... the shock when I found out that it was actually the worse game... omg. This video really encapsulates the feeling and the love that not only I have for this game but the whole sonic world, that some recent years I went back to. And the effort you put in narrating and boarding out the scenes that's so inspiring and incredible! I want to be a storyboard artist in the future so this was a big joy watching :) I'm waiting for your next projects! Thank you!!

I listened to music and watched cutscenes I literally got a 360 just for this. I was gonna buy it and play it at my uncles whenever I visited but he offered to sell me his old 360 and that’s how I got my 360 and I’m so glad I did. Guitar hero had a grip on me after that.

All those times I...left her behind because she didn't know how the game worked and I realized I could bypass all the puzzles that were made for Co op with Shadow's Chaos Spear...Good times.
    I love the angle you went at with this video, because you're right: You see the potential in this game. You see it's promise, despite all it's shortcomings.
    Really makes you wanna bring that potential to life yourself (hell, I might be doing that exact same thing). I thought after all these years of 06 being around, that nobody would have anything new to say about it. It's...really nice to see someone say this game isn't worthless trash for a change and I appreciate it. Plus, the art and presentation for your narrative was a nice touch. You didn't have to do that, but you did and man does it pay off. I'm excited to see what you're cooking next!

It was also enjoyable and reminds me that I actually really enjoyed Sonic 06 for what it was back when I first played it on the Xbox 360, even if it could have been even better as a game itself. (I also played Sonic and the Secret Rings on the Wii after too, and I enjoyed that story that I remember drawing scenes from the game on my notebook. I was a strong Sonic fan back then, so thanks for reminding me of those memories.)

    I *was* going to subscribe, but then I realised I'd already done so today
    This is a wonderfully mad video, though I can't help but forever feel a pain in my sou l because of gaming media's view on Sonic and how it's only very recently started to recover from that.
    Knowing that you're going to rewrite it is a mildly worrying precedent, mostly because of the rabbithole of Sonic lore and timeline shenanigans. I've dedicated -not enough- way too many hours to the lore of the franchise, and on this game alone and how it handles time travel, and I still haven't reached a conclusion on the latter.
    But more importantly there are some key things in this story that I really do appreciate, being the bond between Team Dark, (ESPECIALLY Omega, with his self proclaimed apathy, lashing out at Mephiles and slowly revealing the truth to Shadow), and the overt sadism of Mephiles, how he goes out of his way to try and to manipulate break every single character before achieving his final goal.
    I also worry about common confusings over the nature of Blaze's inclusion in this game, which is fair. It's decided that Sonic Rush takes place after 06, but because the events of 06 happened, and the universe was essentially remade, people don't know if Blaze travelled through both time and space to help SIlver, or whether she was in the future to begin with, and that the pocket dimension she went into became the Sol dimension when the universe was remade
    There's also Sonic Rivals being the new introduction for SIlver, and the implication that Eggman Nega is lying about being from the Sol dimension since he's a time traveller and never interacts with Sonic in the Rivals games unless disguised which is why Sonic doesn't recognise him and you sort've begin to realise just how overly layered this all is. Don't get me wrong, I thrive on this stuff, but if you choose to not think about any future games when writing, that's perfectly fine, I'll just be over here trying to figure out whether this series using Back to the Future or Dragon Ball Z rules
    I am rather interested in hearing what you have to say next, I think you have a very informed perspective on this sort of thing that most people don't, or at least don't discuss often enough
    There were two things I wanted to comment on though, just because you put a bit of focus on them
    It's not ever really said that only one emerald is needed to travel through time, though you only need one for normal chaos control. It's eggman's machine that sent Team Sonic through time, and Mephiles is probably strong enough on his own (or at least with the combined power of himself and one emerald.
    Also I think the chaos emeralds disappearing was just a straight up "okay they're not using them anymore remove the emerald models" I think they still have them. Chaos emeralds tend to disappear into hammer space sometimes, which I guess makes sense since characters can straight up absorb them
    Not going to blame you for this one, but Eggman saying:
    "Yes, I can finally complete my plans... Now that I have the Chaos Emeralds, and you... The Princess of Soleanna. That's all I need to revive the Flames of Disaster.", is actually a slight mistranslation, the original japanese line (as translated by Windii) reads as follows "The miraculous gemstones, Chaos Emeralds​ ​​and you, the princess of Soleanna.​ ​​ ​​​ ​and you, the princess of Soleanna. When everything is in place, the Flames of Disaster will be restored."​
    I thought you'd mention it again because you made reference to that specific scene in japanese, so kudos to you if you went out and read it for the future videos
    If you do read all this amongst the coming flood of comments thanks to the grace of the algorithm, thank you for reading my little "um ackchewally" ramble, this series is such a big thing for me and seeing more people get into it and realise it's actually very cool is always uplifting and a little vindicating

      Thank you for subscribing!! Honestly I love hearing people talk deeply about the stories they care about, so no worries for the "ramble" 😂 I totally agree about Team Dark's bond being the best (the Shadow campaign has the strongest story overall imo), and I totally need to check out those script translations. I saw a Tumblr post a while back about the Japanese idiom behind Blaze's "blue hedgehog" line and it makes me excited to see what else the Japanese translation has to offer ✨

    hiii I've been an avid sonic fan since i was 11 who ALSO was introduced through Sonic X and has barely played any games! I just want to say I'm in love with this era of Sonic and I'm so glad you're giving it recognition and diving into the massive potential that this game has. I can't wait to see what you come up with!! This video is also an amazing dive into the production history and really shows how relevant crunch culture has always been and still is to this day... and the HOUR LONG of storyboarding and editing??? holy cow??? it's amazing!

    I feel like this video was the perfect encapsulation of how I felt about Sonic as a kid, and how excited I was to play Sonic 06 for the first time (only to find out that it was a buggy mess that was rushed to hell). For giving me that feeling, you’ve earned a new sub :) I also appreciate the hard work you’ve put into this video due to the hand drawn animations and great storytelling! You’ve truly made this video accessible for those who are newer to the series, or just needed a refresher. Keep it up, and you’ll have thousands of subs in no time 🤘 I’m excited to see what comes next from you!

    This is also the first time i see someone not shittalk the game in a ''review'' that explains about the history behind the project and why it became what it did now
    as much as i adore this game the crunch and the events leading up to the 06 '' downfall'' really frustrated me and saddened me every time i remember/read it
    this video is so freaking good RAH!!! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!! this is my fav review ever istg

    THE FUDGE.......
    This is only your 2nd video... Over an hour long... Has crwative narrative with interesting camera shots and a good acting...AND you don't even have a thousand followers at the time of me writing this comment??
    What is this?! A gem! A chaos emerald if you will!
    If you think that I watched the entirety of this video in one sitting, eat a whole bag of chips like popcorn in cinema and NOT share this with every single one of my Sonic friends, you'd be dead wrong!
    You, mate, have a very good future ahead of you. This video proves it! The whole time I was absolutely engrossed in the review, and the plot of you going back in time with your future self had me intrigued too! I even got to learn stuff about the production, when typically my attention span is not all that strong for these kinds of things. And that P-06 mention?? At this point my grin was going through the roof and I could not stop it!
    To be quite honest, there's so much more things that I love about this review: the pacing, the comedy; but if I were to mention EVERY single good thing about this experience, theeen we'd be here for at least 2 hours. I don't even know if this comment is too much, but I can't help the excitement! It's no use!
    So I'll try to make this conclusion be on the simpler side. This video? It's great. It is sincerely so incredibly great. I'll be sure to spread it around as you deserve lots of recognition, I wish you the best of luck on your future endeavours.
    With all that said, I can't wait for the continuation! Make sure to have plenty of rest, sending you much love, and of course, stay safe!
    You're way past cool :D

    4:41 I swear everyone dogpiled on this game when they were given the chance simply just because it had "bugs" which is something every video game in existence has but people didn't seem to understand that for Sonic 06 and thought it was a good idea to take a huge crap on the game at the time.
