It fares better than Rise of Lyric, but this Sonic adventure still has some fundamental flaws.
VGChartz's Taneli Palola: "Most great and beloved video game franchises have gone through bad times over the years. For many of them these periods are merely momentary setbacks from which the franchise quickly recovers. After all, it's not like a game or two can unmake all the good that the series has accomplished in the past. Then again, sometimes a game will come along that ends up having such a huge negative impact on the entire series that it drags it down with it.
The following 10 games caused their series to fall dramatically in terms of critical reception, and often commercially as well, and forced the franchise into an oftentimes lengthy hiatus."

Apologies, I am not sure why this is the case. This link should work.

Sega Mag:
SEGA Sammy Holdings revealed today its financial results for its entire fiscal year 2015, ie from 1 April 2014 until 31 March 2015.
Over this period, giant pachinko and video game ad revenue 2.64 billion €, down 6.1% year on year. The operating result reached its side about 131 million € and is down 54.3%.
SEGA Sammy also shows net losses of about 84 million € while the group was largely profitable in fiscal year 2014 amounting to 229 million €. The fall is breathtaking.
Haha! I hated Seag when I was young but I have to admit that I was disappointed when they announced Dreamcast as last console.
Anyway, a Loss by a company which produces video games is not good news.
I don't think anyone is suprised by this. SEGA's decision making is terrible, i'm amazed they are still going.
The combination of this comment, name and avatar is almost too much for me to handle. Lol.
I get that kind of reaction a lot. My relationship with SEGA is definitely a love hate one these days :P
I love their games but i hate their attitude and decision making.
Alien Colonial Marines hurt this brand in my opinion.
2.11M across 5 platforms isn't good. It deserved better.
