Now, my options from here are to just do the "regular" nom list or go through Ulti's "bad games" list. I can always do a combination of both

Is the game really as bad as everyone says? I think I spent about 10 minutes playing it a long time ago and it seemed okay.

In case anybody was wondering, every game from TMNT for the NES on were from this "1-10" topic.

Votals were at record lows so I am glad to get that list out of the way

6/10

It was ok, but I knew that if future Sonic games were going to be worse, they weren't worth playing.

8/10

I love this game and think it's the only worthwhile 3D Sonic game, not counting Colors or Generation which I am not familiar with.

Rules:
- Rate from 0 to 10 (one decimal place is fine, more than that and I'll round for you). I'd prefer if 5 were an average rather than 7.
- You may vote for any games you want that have been rated before at any time. You may also change your vote at any time.
- No alts, no joke voting, no “purposeful downvoting” - you all know this.
- Please only vote if you've played enough of the game to be able to rate it.
- You may nominate as many games as you want on any given day. Multiple noms of the same game aren't necessary.

30 minutes of Kirby sure beat wasting (my words) dozens of hours in FFVIII

Today's game marks the final game that was nominated from Ed's "1-10" topic, which I have no recollection of

Four 3D Sonic games rated (counting Shadow), all of them being the ones people generally didn't like. That's kinda weird.

No rating, I stopped playing 3D Sonic games after SA2.

3/10. Sonic Heroes is the game that destroyed Sonic. Even Shadow is better than this abomination.

9.2/10

Objectively, the best 3D Sonic Game, although nostalgia factor has it behind SA2 on my list of overall favorite games. Actually, I guess I can't say that anymore because Generations is out now and I haven't played it yet (I'm expecting Generations to be the best). I did notice that the Special Stage for Generations seems to be the one from this game (Nintendo Power said the Special Stage was "Reminiscent of the Special Stages from Sonic the Hedgehog 2" and then proceeded to describe something exactly like the ones from Sonic Heroes), and I can only hope they used the Special Stage Music from this game as well because that was possibly the best track in the game and the "team" dynamic makes it hard for them to get much of this game into Generations anyway. Highly underrated, and only the quirky Chaotix missions, which played out like scavenger hunts only without the flashing lights of Knuckles' levels in the Adventure games, keep it from scoring even higher with me.

It's good when things go right, but the controls and camera can often screw you up, especially in the later stages.

7/10

I thought it was pretty cool mechanically. Only major flaw is that it recycled the same stages for everyone with minor variations. Two teams were basically joke modes.
