Sonic O6 is kinda scary when you think about it.

Knuckles is the only playable character in Sonic '06 who doesn’t finish a level/boss/town mission.
Despite this, Knuckles does have a victory pose. This can be seen if you glitch the levels to the end with Knuckles, the victory pose is almost identical to his Sonic Adventure 2 victory pose).

Scares the crap outta me.

Why is it scary?

Why wouldn't something like that be scary? Having no level/mission ending yet still having a victory pose sequence. It's as if the game made itself!

Of course, there could be an explaination for that... but as long as I don't know what it is it remains scary.

What? How can there be a victory pose, or for that matter, a mission without an ending?

I think you misunderstood me...

Knuckles never finishes off a level or a mission at all in the game yet he has his own victory pose, specifically given to people who DO finish off a level or mission.

Like, you use Knuckles, go to an area to trigger a cut-scene, and he does a victory post for activating it? That is weird... but not really scary.

What's that about a cutscene? It's not what I said...

You really like to talk about things you don't know crap about, do you?

Anyway, every character simply has a victory pose programmed into them before they are put in levels, that's how it goes in game development. Sonic Team simply found out too late they didn't make a level where Knuckles ends it.

I had a feeling that was it.

The only scary thing is that he hardly even is playable, and doesn't do much in the story. It's like SonicTeam just wants to throw him aside.

No, it's more like they felt an obligation to include him into the game. He really had no reason to be there.

Yeah, they don't want him in the games, but since the fans do, they ju slap him in there and have him do basically nothing. Great compromise! : ):

Sometimes it is if he's not too involved in the main plot and doesn't seperate from the Master Emerald when he doesn't need to. A situation like that could happen when Sonic visted Angel Island for an unexplored reason... but the only reason I could think of would be if he needed Knuckles or the Master Emerald's help though...

Of course it isn't just story mode wise we should be considering. I'd love it if they included him in the multiplayer or a single player-freeplay thing. I'd be great.

Yes, that is why they should go back to how it was in Sonic Adventure. Each character has their on purpose in the storyline and all contribute. Knuckles still had a good part in the game when he was still at his duty on the Island.

I don't see why they would need to go back to the Sonic Adventure style simply to give Knuckles a good part or something to contribute. They could've easily have done that in a few other games.

That's not the only thing. Sonic Adventure had plenty more pros about it.

I'm still not seeing what that has to do with Knuckles having a good enough role or postion in the games.

Knuckles was probably going to have level of his own though in the final version they probably didn't put it in. But hes victory pose is just still in the game.

Speculation. It's the only thing we can rely on.

I was thinking they'd have all the amigos given at least free level reign, if not hub reign.
After all, isn't that a downloadable extra thing for like Tails and Blaze?

There is? I heard something about a team Amigo attack where you could play as Tails, Omega, and a few others.
