Worst game on the Xbox 360 gets the theme and picture pack treatment photo

Sonic the Hedgehog: It's a complete disaster on the Xbox 360. Without a shadow of a doubt, it is THE worst game on the system. In fact, it may be the worst game in the past few years (considering it's such a well-loved franchise, it gets judged a bit harder). But hey, that won't stop SEGA and Microsoft from wanting to cash-in on that still burning hunk of Sonic love that some people want to cling on to. By way of Major Nelson, here are the latest ways to rid that cold-hard cash from your ever-so-giving hands:

Name: Dr. Eggman Picture Pack
Price: 100 Points
Available in: All Xbox Live regions
Dash Details: Download this picture pack

Name: Soleanna Picture Pack
Price: 100 Points
Available in: All Xbox Live regions
Dash Details: Download this picture pack

Name: Memorial Sonic Picture Pack
Price: 100 Points
Available in: All Xbox Live regions
Dash Details: Download this picture pack

Name: Dr. Eggman's Theme
Price: 120 Points
Available in: All Xbox Live regions
Dash Details: Download this theme

Name: Soleanna's Theme
Price: 120 Points
Available in: All Xbox Live regions
Dash Details: Download this theme

Name: Memorial Sonic's Theme
Price: 120 Points
Available in: All Xbox Live regions
Dash Details: Download this theme

If you buy this, then you are a sucker. I don't care if you're a fan, do not support anything vaguely related to this abortion of a game.

Poor Sonic. He's sooo shit now.

If I were him, I would've turned to crack by now. He probably smacks that Amy one around too.

Remember when all you had to do was hold down right on the d-pad and hit jump a few times? Yeah, I miss it too.

You forgot about Bomberman Zero...

Just looking at the box for that game made me want to vomit

Bomberman Zero is Game of the Year compared to Sonic on the 360. Believe it.

Having had the unfortunate privilege of playing both games, I still think Bomberman Act Zero is worse.

Sonic isn't dead. I just picked up Sonic Rush for the DS, and it's awesome.

If you keep mocking this great game you're an asshole for life and won't ever not be an asshole because saying this game sucks makes you an asshole and I know I'm babbling but it's only to drill into your heads that you're an asshole for thinking this great game sucks you assholes.

Soo... you're an asshole?


The game looks like shit. I thought the 2-d games on the GBA were great fun, though.

What in God's name is wrong with Sega? They should really stick to distributing their older products (via Wii Virtual Console), as well as offering clothing (I'd fucking kill for a Sega t-shirt.) and other assorted merchandise based on discontinued franchises (Talking Zeus doll that says "Wise fwom you gwave!" anyone?), as I honestly believe that they could make an absolute killing.

But no, they continue to rape their once-good franchises up the ass, relying on the stupid, incompetent kids who will inevitably play this garbage, as well as invest in the lame bonus packs that they churn out. I swear to God, if I were ever to gain control of Sega, Sonic would fucking die.

I hate that little blue bastard. His games have blown ass since they attempted to even mimic 3D gameplay in the form of Sonic 3D Blast.

Every 2D Sonic game I've ever played was at worst, mildly entertaining. Every 3D Sonic game I've ever played sucked ass. The pattern goes on. Sonic is just meant to carry on in 2D. It sickens me that 3D Sonic games keep coming out.

Ease off, guys. I at least tried the demo (I don't have a 360 yet) and I loved the way it worked. And when I get a 360, I will purchase the game.

"Robert Summa" rhymes with "propaganda". Coincidence? I THINK NOT!

Woah now there Twisted Imp, I never said I liked the GBA games BETTER. I just said they were great fun. My parents never got me a Sega when I was younger, so I would always go to my friend's house to play Sonic 2 with him. That shit was awesome.

Sure the Genesis games were a lot better, but having 3D games to suck so bad is intolerable. Sonic Team really lost their ways post Dreamcast.

Can't believe there's some people above that think this is great game!

A sad day indeed.

I think we are forgetting about a certain game called Bomberman: act zero. That was the biggest pos made for the 360.

I like the way some of the packs are called "Memorials" kinda implying Sonic is dead themselves.

My older brother likes this game. He works at a bank so we should listen to him.
