Top 10 Best Cutscenes in Sonic the Hedgehog Games

This is all about the most memorable moments in Sonic cutscenes. There are a lot more, but I couldn't fit them all in, so feel free to add any of your favorite moments.

The Top Ten
  1. Opening Cutscene (Sonic Unleashed)

    I think we all know this was going to be number one. Sonic Unleashed's opening cutscene was gorgeous and shamed previous and future games alike. Unlike Sonic 06, Sonic Unleashed had beautiful graphics in its opening that worked with a story to boot, while Sonic 06... I don't even want to bother.

    While it is generic to assume this cutscene would be the best, take in the fact that this is 2008 work we're looking at. With this level of beauty in modern games (Sonic Forces *cough cough*), Sega would be in a better place. An action-packed cutscene full of explosions and hedgehogs? Heck yes.

    The Werehog transformation is and probably will be my favorite. I mean, come on. You probably won't see Sonic go through a transformation like this in future games. Unless SU2 comes out. But the cutscene in my opinion is stunning and while this is probably a clichéd statement, Sonic Unleashed dominates when it comes to cutscenes.

  2. "No copyright law in the universe is going to stop me!" (Shadow the Hedgehog)

    This has gotta be his best quote.

  3. Silver Gets Kicked in the Head (Sonic the Hedgehog 2006)

    Silver haters (and even Silver fans!) love to see Silver getting owned by Shadow! It's so funny!

    Play it over and over repeatedly, and it kinda sounds like music.

    The best part of a truly abysmal game.

  4. "Where's that DAMN fourth Chaos Emerald?" (Shadow the Hedgehog)

    Shadow getting angry with a Chaos Emerald? Yes, please!

  5. Mephiles Kills Sonic (Sonic the Hedgehog 2006)

    Even true Sonic fans find it hilarious to see Sonic get killed, it's true! (Ok, maybe I laughed a little...)

  6. Sonic Talks to a Dead Robot (Sonic the Hedgehog 2006)

    Sonic insists that even though a robot is dead, he still has to threaten it. And when Tails finds him, it's pretty funny to see their reactions.

  7. "What's wrong with my mustache?!" (Sonic the Hedgehog 2006)

    During the final cutscene of Sonic Lost World, Eggman may have been the victim of a hungry bunny attack... Well, Eggman's moustache...

  8. Opening Cutscene (Sonic CD)

  9. "Filthy rat" (Sonic the Hedgehog 2006)

    Infinite called him a filthy rat, too. And yes, Sonic did whine about it. Truth hurts, truthfully.

  10. Opening Cutscene (Sonic the Hedgehog 2006)

  11. The Newcomers
  12. ?

    Maria Robotnik Dies (Sonic Adventure 2)

  16. When Infinite Makes the Sun (Sonic Forces)

  17. "I will fight like I always have" (Sonic Unleashed)

  18. Scene Before the Final Fight (Dark/Hero) (Sonic Adventure 2)

    This was an unbelievable, memorable, awesome, excellent, epic, extreme, and amazing scene. And the boss fight is so epic!

  19. "If you harm a hair on his head" (Sonic the Hedgehog 2006)

  20. Opening Cutscene (Sonic Heroes)

  21. Baldy McNosehair Scene (Sonic Colors)

    I assume you're talking about the Sonic Colors one, but I liked the Sonic Lost World one because of Zazz getting insulted by Sonic.

  22. "S-stop! D-don't move, or we'll shoot!" (Sonic Adventure 2)

    While Shadow is walking straight toward them, holding a gun, completely uninterested.

  23. Opening Cutscene (Sonic Adventure)

  24. "It's no use! Take this!" (Sonic the Hedgehog 2006)

  25. "I want you to get me a cheeseburger and a shake" (Sonic the Hedgehog 2006)

    This Sonic Colours cutscene was a particular comedic highlight, especially with Cubot and Orbot.

  26. "Is it right?" (Sonic the Hedgehog 2006)

  27. Sonic vs Amy (Sonic Heroes)

  28. Opening Cutscene (Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games Vancouver 2010)

  29. "Friendship" Scene (Sonic Unleashed)
