Blog:Top 10 WORST Sonic Games

Not all Sonic games are born equal. Here are my picks for the Top 10 WORST Sonic Games.

Number 10
Number 10: Sonic R.

This game is notorious for its awful character balancing, as well as its clunky controls. This isn't a terrible Sonic game, which is why it's on the tail end of this list.

Number 9
Number 9: Sonic 3D Blast.

This game is such a disappointment, and it is the closest we got to a 3D Sonic game on the Sega Saturn, which is one reason why said console failed. Also, its controls are clunky, and the game plays really slow.

Number 8
Number 8: Sonic Blast.

If 3D Blast is a disappointment, its 8-bit counterpart is even worse. The game plays really slow, and the levels are uninspired. Also, the bosses are pathetic.

Number 7
Number 7: Shadow the Hedgehog.

This game tried way too hard to be cool. The story routes are all pointless, since they all result in the same Last Story. Also, the controls are slippery.

Number 6
Number 6: Sonic Free Riders.

The first two Sonic Riders games are good, but Free Riders is nearly unplayable due to the reliance on Kinect motion controls. The controls are nearly unresponsive, and you may break your back.

Number 5
Number 5: Sonic 06.

This game had a lot of potential to be a good game. Instead, we got an unpolished experience, and this is a huge letdown. We have tons of glitches, the characters control poorly, the controls are very sensitive, and the story is very confusing. The game also introduced Silver and Elise, and I'm glad the latter is gone. Elise is hands down the worst Sonic character ever made. The game also tried way too hard to be cool. Now that is no use.

Number 4
Number 4: Secret Rings and Black Knight.

These games are so bad that they should be deleted from the Sonic universe forever. By the rails gameplay just doesn't make sense in video games. Also, the reliance on motion controls makes them way worse.

Number 3
Number 3: Sonic Labyrinth.

This is one of the worst video games ever made. First off, the plot is beyond stupid. Second, Sonic travels so slow in this game. Third, the controls are downright awful. I can't believe I was dumb enough to play this monstrosity.

Number 2
Number 2: Shattered Crystal.

This game suffers the same problems as its Wii U counterpart, and it's story is mediocre. At least it's better than the Wii U counterpart.

Number 1
Number 1: Rise of Lyric.

This is undoubtedly the worst Sonic game of all time. The combat is boring, there are so many glitches, the music is bland, the plot is bland, and the characters have bland personalities. And don't get me started on the redesigns. Sonic's redesign is by far the worst redesign, as he is given a huge forehead, miscolored arms, and ridiculously long legs.
