The reason Mario games maintain a good standard is Nintendo take along in making them and they don't force you to play as another character in the 3D platformers just Mario. Yes you do get to play as Luigi once you complete the game with 120 stars in Super Mario Galaxy but every 3D Mario game has you playing as Mario and Nintendo take their time with each game and don't rush it out.

The same can't be said with a 3D Sonic game while the graphics do look good the gameplay can be boring and so can the level design.

IN allot of the New Sonic games have been mostly Sonic. It really annoying Actually...they ned to make Tails and Knuckle moe important characters again. IT boring being forced to play Sonic soooo much lately. At least Nintendo makes games for it other characters so where not playing Mario all the time.

Sonic Team did take there time with SU it's just that someone disided that werehog would be good, even thou they still did a good job on it (the game is not broken it's acually pretty good, better than fishing and mech shooting) and about boring the same can be said for Mario

Well, after doing more research and thinking about it, I've finally decided to get the Wii version. Both versions seem great, and from what I've seen, actually seem like very different games, despite sharing some of the same levels, and the same story. The main reason I decided to go with the Wii version is because my Y button on my 360 controller sticks, and I saw that you had to use it a lot in this game. So if I got the 360 version, I'd pretty much have to get a new controller, which I don't want to do right now (might do it in the future, but would rather get another game with that money, especially since so few games actually seem to use that button a lot). Still, the research that I did between the two made me actually consider getting the 360 version sometime down the line due to their differences. It's probably one of the few games that has made me consider doing that, because with most games it's usually just a different copy of the same game.

Quite frankly I am amused that we are even comparing Mario to the Sonic games of today.

Errr, wtf? :| And this is why I never listen to others. To say this game is worse than Sonic '06 is pretty much "out there". Well, a 3.5 is one of my favorite games this year. BioShockOwnz
Knowing your taste in games, i am not surprised. I will pass on Sonic, until they make a playable game.

It does when it's me. I'm that important, fact. Unleashed is pure win, my friend.

half of it is.

I thought its 1/3 of it...

Then it makes sense, 1/3 = 33%. Gamespot gave it a 3.5 which correlates with the Sonic Stages. :P It is underrated but not as good as it could have been. It should have gotten a 6 though, at least.

Let me ask a question to all who bash this game.

Have you even played the game at all or do you let gamespot make your decisions?

Ok then cool. I think that the main reason this game scored badly was that is was released after games like galaxy,ratchet and clank,LBP,Banjoo, wario ,de blob etc.

In similiar news, IGN may have some trouble with their Sonic Unleashed 360 review.

There is a rumor going around that the reviewer actually didn't complete the game. So he might have written the review in a biased manner!

Interesting?

ZimpanX


That doesn't really prove anything, reviewers use different accounts and systems when reviewing their games.

Plus the final part is actually the worse part of the game.

SEGA should just give up. If they absolutely MUST make a 3D game, why not make a 3D side scroller? Now, THAT would be something.

I honestly don't think anyone here who said bad stuff about Unleashed actually played it. Controls are bad? BS, their near perfect. Poor camera? With the exception of a few werehog parts, the camera is just fine. Terrible level design? Contrare, the level designs are great. Of course, I never do trust the GS 360 team, or any 360 team for that matter. With the exception of a few games like CoD4 and CoD:WaW, the reviews are terrible.

It's odd how the user rating is 7.8 on here, so there must be Sonic fans that like this game.

No, not "most" of the game. "Most" of the game is the werehog bs... the Sonic parts are the best ones in the game, but they feel as if you don't play!

I mean REAL 2.5... Make it look, feel and play like the original Sonic games.
