PSU: Sonic Unleashed Review

Sonic The Hedgehog first rolled onto the Sega Mega Drive over 15 years ago and almost overnight became one of the most recognizable icons in the video game industry. With a colorful career spanning over several generations of video game systems the speedy, spiky-haired mammal has achieved impressive world-wide sales of over 38 million units.

With those whopping statistics under his belt, and whilst there's still substantial amounts of money to be made, Sonic's creator doesn't plan on ending his career any time soon. However, you would have thought that, considering Sonic's high profile, more care would have been given to the iconic figure's next-gen debut back in 2006. An awkward control system, camera issues and glitch-riddled gameplay, however, led to much criticism from reviewers and resulted in a poor average score of just 46% on Metacritic. Despite the developer coming up with the excuse of having to rush the title so that it was ready for the launch of the Playstation 3, it was deemed to be one of the worst Sonic games to have ever been released.

Dedicated Sonic Fans Have Managed to Unofficially Port Sonic Unleashed to PC

Sonic Unleashed on PC? The Sonic community managed to do just that with with the fan project "Sonic Unleashed Recompiled."

PRIMORDUS434d ago

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.

Chocoburger433d ago

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.

PRIMORDUS432d ago

1337x is one of my favorite ever since the real RARBG went down. I usually only get from FitGirl or DODI.

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.

Unleashed was one of my favorite P3 games would love a remastered version

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.

NJShadow1406d ago (Edited 1406d ago )

I sorta' stopped caring about this list when I saw Sonic Spinball (a genuinely great game) ranked lower than some of the noted atrocities.

Pyrofire951405d ago

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.
