Review

 




Sonic is truly in a world-wide race against time... as the sun sets, a new adventure awakens.

In this new adventure, Dr. Eggman is up to his evil antics again, in his quest for World domination. He unleashes a powerful ray that not only divides the world into several continents, but has an unexpected transformation on Sonic's state.

Sonic must travel across the globe, completing action-packed stages to retrieve the power of the Chaos Emeralds to ultimately save the world... and himself! Sonic's world has been transformed, courtesy of a powerful new game engine that delivers the tight gameplay of a 2D sidescroller in stunning, picturesque 3D environments. Sonic Unleashed takes everything you know and love about Sonic and upgrades it with spectacular scenery, new combat powers, an unexpected storyline, and, of course, blistering speed.

Customer rating: 4 out of 5 stars Very good game

To be honest, i agree that Sonic has died, along with Crash Bandicoot and Spyro, therefore i wasnt expecting a lot from this game. The first game (Sonic the Hedgehog for PS3 and Xbox) was appauling! The graphics and gameplay were just rubbish. However Sonic Unleashed is far better. Although it can be a bit glitchy at times, the gamplay and graphics are a lot better. The stages are more fun and easier to complete and you really feel a sense of speed in each level.

Overall a good game, well worth purchasing is you're a sonic fan.

i never had a doubt that this game would be anything other than a dissapointment. first off the story is a awfull in every way, its boring and unengaging, the characters are hollow and have no charm and sonic has this whole stereotype of being an unually simple shell filled with stupid catchphrases in every game hes in. the graphics are ok at a glance but closer inspection low res ground and character textures can be noticed as well as horrible jaggies on hd resolution screens. gameplay is mostly frustrating with a horrible camera however gameplay as sonic in his normal form can be entertaining but the werehog segments are tedious. the final insult sre the trophies wich are hard to achieve without serious playing time and skill wich is rediculous for a kids game. all in all i would say avoid and unless you really feel you need this game stick to classic mega drive sonic, honestly sonic should have been retired when sega left the console industry.

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars The Blue Blur back in full speed.

Im not sure why this game has been having such bad reviews its brill. Having been a fan of Sonic ever since his first appearance Ive been very disappoint of late with the games but this one has really given me hope the speed is fantastic its just like the original but in this now 3d next generation world with lots of new things to keep it fresh, Im not really sure why the werehog has been so slatted I think its a nice way to break up the speed of the daytime levels its nice to see a good old fasion platformer as they dont seem to be many theses days even the roaming around the cities has been greatly improved on the 2006 version. All in all I hope Sega keep up the excellent work.
