Once again, I must agree with Genesjs. Sure, the sense of speed with Sonic is great and all, but sometimes it helps to slow down a little bit. Sometimes you need to stop and look at something and wonder "how am I supposed to get up there?" or "how do I obtain that item?" Silver's levels in Sonic '06 were designed for that purpose, and, besides, if the series was just all about reaching the exit as fast as possible, the gameplay would get stale after awhile. Throwing in different gameplay among the speed-driven gameplay offers a different experience, or a "breather" if you will.
