"E3 08 … the moment of truth. Would Sonic Unleashed suck? Well, if you are willing to have an open mind, and can toss aside your hardcore "sonic must run fast all the time" mentality, then the answer will be no, Sonic Unleashed will not suck.
First off, Sonic unleashed is scheduled for release in November of 2008 for the Wii, PS2, PS3, and 360 consoles, and as expected, the next gen versions will be different in terms of both content and game play mechanics.
The version we were granted access to at E3 was the 360 version. So the information below is in large part specific to the next gen version of the game. The code we viewed was an early version, and SEGA made it clear that lighting, camera, and AI was still being worked on.
That said, lets dig into some Sonic Unleashed details."
Sonic Unleashed on PC? The Sonic community managed to do just that with with the fan project "Sonic Unleashed Recompiled."
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.
1337x is one of my favorite ever since the real RARBG went down. I usually only get from FitGirl or DODI.
u gotta give the hardcore fans credit, they are committed to fix segas 3d sonic games ha.
Still remembered as one of the best Sonic games of all time, I believe it's time Sonic Unleashed gets its overdue remaster after Sonic x Shadow Generations.
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.
Sonic The Hedgehog has had a long and storied history over the past decades, but which are the best Sonic games ever made?
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.
I sorta' stopped caring about this list when I saw Sonic Spinball (a genuinely great game) ranked lower than some of the noted atrocities.
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.
A Sonic game with Sonic as the only playable character. About time :)
Although I am pretty mad they decided to add that monster. Oh well.
I don't know about Super Sonic though. I remember Sonic the Hedgehog (on PS3 & 360) had CG trailers that had him in it yet we could never play as him.
The day time missions look incredible, finally they bring the original feel back. Then night time, they ruined the series yet again. A wearhog, come the f**k on!. They had the game then added BS angry sonic mode. Another fail, hopefully they just build upon the better half of this game and succeed next time.
It just looks taked on to make sonic "cool" or something. The day play looks soooo good. But then to make Sonic look like a bad ass they had to make him transform and have stretch arms. I gave up on Sonic after the gamecube ports of those dreamcast sonic games.
