Anyone who grew up in the '90s and owned a Genesis has a warm spot in their hearts for the blue blur, but for the current young generation of gamers, Sonic is the embodiment of failure. Games like Shadow the Hedgehog and Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 are among some of the worst "big name" titles released in recent years, and even the games that could be called "good," such as Sonic Chronicles or Sonic and the Secret Rings, are relentlessly mediocre instead of being high-quality. And yet Sonic the Hedgehog offers something no other game on the market does ? a fast-paced platforming adventure ? so gamers are willing to keep giving it a shot, despite disappointment after disappointment.
Sonic Unleashed is probably the best Sonic game in years, and it begins where just about any other nonexistent Sonic game would end. Sonic has collected all seven Chaos Emeralds, turned into Super Sonic, and busted his way onto Dr. Robotnik's outer space fleet, smashing everything in his path and generally being Sonic. Unfortunately for him, the not-so-good Dr. Robotnik was prepared for this and laid a trap. He siphons the power of the Chaos Emeralds from Sonic and uses it to fire a beam that blows up the Earth, releasing a terrible monster called Dark Gaia, who dwells within the planet's core. For some inexplicable reason, this also causes Sonic to turn into a werewolf, or rather, a werehog. Robotnik promptly boots the now-werehog Sonic off his ship and onto the shattered Earth, along with the drained Chaos Emeralds. It's up to Sonic and his latest new sidekick, a floating fairy with amnesia named Chip, to find a way to repower the Chaos Emeralds and rescue the world."
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.
