Product Description:

Transformed and Sonic Unleashed, Sonic races to save the world…and himself. Sonic the Hedgehog is on an adventure unlike any other. Powered by an all-new engine, Sonic Unleashed blends classic Sonic gameplay with a variety of in-game perspectives to create an entirely new and unique gaming experience. Merging blistering 2D action with meticulously rendered 3D environments, players race through intriguing locations across the globe as Sonic to save a chaotic world. The other side of Sonic .Sonic and his alter ego Werehog. View larger.

Collect rings for Ring Energy. View larger. Swing into action with Werehog. View larger. A New Sonic a New Story On a quest for world domination Sonic nemesis Dr. Eggman has managed to steal the chaos emeralds once again and this time drained them of their power. As a result not only has the Earth split into distinct sections, so has Sonic. Now he is two beings. During the day he is the usual speed-addicted hedgehog players will remember, but at night he becomes Sonic the Werehog.

In either form it is the player’s ultimate goal to find the missing chaos emeralds and return them to their proper place in order to set the world and Sonic himself, back the way he should be. Gameplay: The Two Sides of Sonic Like nearly all Sonic games, Sonic Unleashed is platform-based. The game combines the feel of 2D side-scrolling that fans of the Sonic series love, with sharp 3D graphics, and throws in an over the back third-person perspective reminiscent of FPS gameplay for good measure.

And just as in earlier games, as players race through and explore the expansive world before them, using auto lock to hone in on enemies and areas of interest, they will rely on the power they gain from the rings they collect for a variety of things, but with the new twist of Sonic’s split personality, things are a little bit different. Playing during the day, as you race across the world in the form of Sonic, speed is the main goal. Collecting rings fills you with ‘Ring Energy,’ which not only provides extra life, but also the advantage of ‘Sonic Boost.’ With this players can travel at speeds that approximate 300 MPH.

In addition, Sonic Unleashed introduces two new features: the ‘Speed Drift’ and the ‘Quick Step’. Speed Drifting is similar to drifting in racing games, allowing players to slide around corners at high speeds, while Quick Stepping is a sidestepping maneuver allowing Sonic to avoid enemies with quick steps to either side. Both keep you moving as fast as possible, so you can get as many rings as possible, which again keeps you moving as fast as possible. As night falls and Sonic assumes his Werehog form the rings provide a different kind of power more suited to his more menacing appearance.

Much slower, but also much more powerful, the Werehog relies on the rings to provide life as well as strength to shield himself from the attacks of enemies. This is necessary because Werehog gameplay, although based in platforming, incorporates significant levels of combat as well. Red orbs gathered as enemies are defeated allow the player to unlock additional combo moves that will supplement the hack and slash and arm stretching abilities that the Werehog always possesses.

Whether Hedgehog or Werehog, no matter which form players prefer they will get ample opportunity to explore the two sides of Sonic since each area in the game contains both night and day segments where each form must be played. Key Game Features: Sonic’s World Transformed - Sonic maintains his high-speed abilities during the day, but at night he is transformed into a mysterious dark form with incredible never-before-seen abilities including 3D-action brawling and amazing agility. Tight Navigation and Speed Control - Players accelerate to super speed with sonic Boost’ by collecting rings to increase Sonic’s ing Energy.’ Using uick Step,’ players will quickly move left or right to avoid obstacles instantly.

Additionally, peed Drift’ allows players to rocket through turns without slowing down. Powerful New Engine and Cinematic Graphics - With its new proprietary “Hedgehog Engine,” Sonic Unleashed enhances the classic 2D perspective with mind-blowing 3D stages. Other next-gen technology capabilities include global illumination, grid computing, continuous data streaming and an intricate path finding system. Enhanced and Expanded Environments - Many unique and fascinating continents offer the player an opportunity to save the world in a dynamic, high-speed experience. In addition to exploring exciting unlockable areas, players dash through up to nine locations resembling real-life destinations including the Great Wall of China, Arctic Pole glaciers and many more. Whether it’s the updated graphics that retain the side-scrolling feel of classic games in the Sonic franchise, an expansive world to race through and explore or the multiple and new ways to play, Sonic Unleashed offers something for players of any age or level of ability.

this Sonic Unleashed game is awesome daytime levels are awesome and nighttime levels are also cool i love hub worlds and dont listen to reviewers on places like ign or gamespot if your a sonic fan you will love this game

Rating: - The one sonic fans have been waiting for.
The Sonic Unleashed series needs a game were all you do is play the day time sonic levels (witch for the day time levels alone the game is worth buying). Sega needs credibility again after completely laying eggs in the recent past with the sonic series. Sega wants to try and ad a new game play element noun as the werehog night levels. I personally enjoy the change of pace game play and challenge. The night time levels play surprisingly well. The game play is allot like teenage mutant ninja turtles the original on x-box. The game has so far an excellent story and gorgeous graphics. The day time sonic levels is were this game shins and like I stated earlier in my review the game is worth buying for the day time levels alone. The day time levels move very fast and fluent and are the best I’ve ever seen in a 3D sonic game. If your a sonic fan you won’t be disappointed. If you are a casual gamer and or are a skeptical sonic fan rent first.

Rating: - Sonic Lives
This is the newest Sonic Unleashed game from Sega and in my opinion is the best Sonic game since the hedgehog’s Dreamcast days (Sonic Adventure 1 and 2). The daylight levels are great, tons of fun to play, the graphics throughout the game are gorgeous, and the game maintains it’s classic cartoon-ish feel including some fun humor throughout. This game has received some unfair reviews from critics, they say the werehog stages are dull, and slow. While they are slow, I do not find them boring at all. They are very combat oriented, similar to hack and slash style games. This is a new concept for Sonic the Hedgehog, and I think it’s nice to do something a little different from time to time. Is this the best Sonic game of all? No, but if you have always enjoyed Sonic games, then this one will be no exception.

Rating: - A lot is fixed, but what’s new is broken.
I fired this Sonic Unleashed game up for the first time, and was excited to see some rather good CG. My initial reaction was “Wow, Sega actually took this game really seriously.” The first couple levels as Sonic backed up this prediction, as the gameplay was the smoothest I’d seen it in any 3D Sonic game; It played like Sonic Adventure 2, but faster. However, I got to the first Werehog level, and all my hopes for this game were mocked. The Werehog levels are slow, and you trudge through them while being swarmed by enemies that are generally no struggle to take out. Then, you get to a boss who’s next to unbeatable; I’m 22 and have been a gamer most of my life, but I had to play the first boss no less than 10 times.

I just can’t imagine what Sega was thinking on this one; If the game was made up only of the regular Sonic levels, I would have given it at least 4 stars; quite possibly 5. However, the werehog levels destroy what was an otherwise very solid, respectable game. If Sega gets the hint, and re-releases this game with the Werehog levels removed, I’ll buy it. I couldn’t picture myself getting tired of the traditional running levels, because their execution in this game is the best it’s ever been.

Rating: - Sega is heading in the right direction
The Sonic Unleashed game is worth every penny.

Graphically it is mind blowing. The gameplay is awesome for the Sonic levels and surprisingly good for the werehog. The replay value is enormous and the quality of the game overall is through the roof : great soundtrack and CG etc …

If you love Sonic or not, this is the Sonic Unleashed game you must buy.
