Almost everyone who has played a video game in their life is surely familiar with Sonic, the friendly blue hedgehog addicted to speed who served as SEGA mascot for a long time. Although it is true that this character has given us some of the best games in history, he is not saved from having had others at least regulators.
Here Sonic was not fast

To have a uniform criterion, we will take as reference your notes on the reviews website of Metacritic. Having said this, we can start with the top.
5. Sonic Unleashed
The 2000s were a difficult decade for Sonic. The games they released during these years were at least strangers. With a 60 score on Metacritic, this installment in which Sonic becomes a werewolf He divided fans between those who love him for the uniqueness he was and those who hate him for straying too far from the saga.

3. Sonic Free Riders
Do you miss those beautiful times when the Kinect Was it the most popular thing at the time? Neither do we. Especially because, among other sagas, he sullied Sonic with this very average game. Like everything that came out for Kinect, the controls on the skateboards were orthopedic and unnatural. Taking this into account, it’s no wonder it had a 48 on Metacritic.
2. Sonic the Hedgehog (2006)
This may be the Sonic game that made fans of the SEGA hedgehog the most angry. Just to mention some reasons why it has a 46 on Metacritic, we found endless bugs, loading screens endless and one really strange story with Sonic and a human princess. A disaster no matter how you look at it.
1. Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric
Although the previous position is surely objectively a worse game, to this day it continues to amaze us how unplayable what was Sonic Boom. Although his story was quite normal, we were basically a bug every 20 seconds. Such a video game incident, as expected, had very bad opinions, such as on Metacritic, where it has a 32.
