Gamer 2.0 Sonic Unleashed Preview

Gamer 2.0 writes: " Because Sega has been crapping out Sonic titles – both in terms of frequency and quality – such as Sonic Rivals and Sonic Riders, the blue hedgehog has found himself in a rut. Despite his traditional 2D games on the DS, people have stopped and will continue to stop caring unless something not resembling crap is released on a console. Sonic Team has been hard at work since 2005 with the "hedgehog engine," and it'll finally rear its head this winter when Sonic Unleashed is finally, well, unleashed.

Sonic Unleashed is kind of like a truce between Sonic team and old-school Sonic fans. While the Sonic Adventure games that graced the Dreamcast really weren't that bad, they just featured too much action that didn't involve Sonic. Sonic Team tried to address that with the horribly unpolished Sonic the Hedgehog that came out as launch titles for the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3. Despite not being good in any way, they are extreme hits, but now Sonic fans are pissed, and Unleashed really looks like Sonic Team's last chance."

...this is the last chance for Sonic...but damn near close to it. This game must make me feel like I did the first time I booted up Sonic the Hedgehog.

Dedicated Sonic Fans Have Managed to Unofficially Port Sonic Unleashed to PC

Sonic Unleashed on PC? The Sonic community managed to do just that with with the fan project "Sonic Unleashed Recompiled."

PRIMORDUS70d ago

Actually the torrent is up and you do not need to own the 360 version of the game. Also it will never be taken down.

Nice, I found it on 1337x! I actually liked many parts of this game, but some parts are also shitty. Its uneven, but overall a decent game.

PRIMORDUS69d ago

1337x is one of my favorite ever since the real RARBG went down. I usually only get from FitGirl or DODI.

I think it's best we leave these games we're they belong...in the past

Secret Rings, Unleashed, Black Knight etc, they weren't the best at least enough for a remaster

Generations is getting one because they had something easy to shove Shadow into before the Sonic 3 film and it's probably the better ones they've did over the past decade or so.

Unleashed was one of my favorite P3 games would love a remastered version

NSANiTY332d ago

If I have to read another one of these lists that contains the sentence "The game that started it all" I'm gonna go nuts.

And when it comes to fan favourite zones in Sonic 3 (he mentioned Hydro City, Marble Garden and Launch Base), I'd replace Launch base and Marble Garden with Ice Cap zone. Never heard anyone refer to the others as favourites.

NJShadow1042d ago (Edited 1042d ago )

I sorta' stopped caring about this list when I saw Sonic Spinball (a genuinely great game) ranked lower than some of the noted atrocities.

Pyrofire951041d ago

Sonic and All Stars Racing Transformed is still my favorite kart racer.
I've never really been able to play online tho. D:
Can't even play Team Sonic Racing online cause the servers are broken and don't queue people together.
P.S. This is such a random list. I really don't agree with it. Maybe this really is how they rank it but them just seems odd personally.
