Sonic the Hedgehog (2006 video game)
[edit]Sonic the Hedgehog is a 2006 platform video game developed by Sonic Team and published by Sega for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 consoles. It is a reboot of the Sonic the Hedgehog series, and was produced in commemoration of its fifteenth anniversary. The story follows the respective quests of Sonic, Shadow, and Silver to defeat Solaris, an ancient evil pursued by Doctor Eggman. Beginning development in 2004, the title was initially conceived as an original property separate from the Sonic series, before being reworked. Though positively received in pre-release showings, it experienced a difficult development cycle and was rushed to launch in time for the holiday season. Sonic the Hedgehog was released to notably negative reception, being criticized for long load times, gameplay glitches, a complicated plot, and imprecise control.
