Assessed as a Start; has no image demonstrating the actual game, has an excessive render of a character [which is undue weight since she wasn't the only important character], has a VERY excessive plot summary, many unsourced pieces and even sections, no development information, and other problems. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 09:17, 26 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It should be expanded. There are plenty of things in the game's development that are notable enough for mention. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thekeyboardman (talk • contribs) 23:37, 11 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There is no reason to say that Silver was poorly received based on ONE article. The majority of Sonic characters aren't held in the highest regard, and Silver's case is no different. There is no reason to mention Silver's relegations because most Sonic characters have had similar treatment after this game.Megamachomuscle (talk) 23:17, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It's not an uncommon sentiment. I can dig up more sources if you're really challenging this... Sergecross73 msg me 23:18, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Go ahead, then. But I can also prove that Silver does have a fanbase as well. And again, Silver wasn't relegated because of his reception. He's been treated the same way as most of the other characters since after this game was released. Megamachomuscle (talk) 23:21, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• The information doesn't say that he was relegated because of his poor reception. It's two separate sentences/ideas. If you want to reword it, since you seem to have a problem with the word "relegated", that's fine, but it's true that he hasn't had any "starring" roles since this game. He's not being singled out, as it clearly states that Elise hasn't appeared in any games.
• When there are arguments regarding content, per WP:BRD, the challenged information isn't removed until consensus (or agreement) can be found. (Additionally, you usually don't remove the information in question because it's hard for anyone to see it and comment about it here if it's removed, right?) I'm adding the information back into the article, only remove it if there's WP:CONSENSUS to remove it in these discussions here. Sergecross73 msg me 23:52, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • There are now three sources supporting Silver being poorly received. More can be dug up if need be I'm sure. Sergecross73 msg me 00:11, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

According to what I have red,Silver had been mix received.~Tailsman67~ 74.163.16.121 (talk) 01:39, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

NO! Why did we get rid of the ratings? I don't care WHAT you say; video game ratings are probably one of the most important elements of a video game. Sure we didn't do it for movies, but that is no reason to delete it. You'll never listen to me, but I'll find a way to get it back. You wait and see. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.138.148.222 (talk) 05:18, 29 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

What exactly are you so upset about? What ratings? Sergecross73 msg me 05:24, 29 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The video game ratings, such as ESRB and PEGIS. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.138.148.222 (talk) 22:32, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The removals of the rating from the infobox are explained here. Hounder4 (Talk) 22:40, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Why in the world are you so worked up over them being removed? I figured your favorite website's review got removed because it wasn't deemed reliable or something. Why so much passion over ESRB ratings?? Sergecross73 msg me 00:23, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

OK, so I see that you say Silver is negatively reviewed. Incorrect. Silver is mixed reviews, an the Sonic News Network has links to prove it. And don't worry, they are just as strict on links as you are. Trust me, I've been a contributer there. Next, this is highly opinional. but 06 isn't a bad game. 1/3 of it isn't. Sonic's story is the perect game thing, and graphics, presentation, visual things, and music are absoloutely positively amazing. But that's jst me.

1. Please provide these links from SNN to see if they qualify as Wikipedia's standard for being a reliable source.
2. Sorry, but Wikipedia just covers what reliable sources say, not your personal opinion. Sergecross73 msg me 00:33, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This page seems to be protected.

While it is not the total sales figures, I believe this screw attack link, shows that the Xbox 360 version sold 400,000 in North America alone, and that might be worth the inclusion.
