So What's so bad about Sonic Unleashed?

SoBe Clock · January 25, 2009, 03:24:20 PM

I just played the demo and it seems like everything a sonic game should have been all along. Speedy, relatively linear gameplay, and simple.

Is there something bad about it that the demo isn't showing me? Because if the whole game is like the demo, I'll probably buy it.

Night time levels kinda suck.

If they replaced the werehog with Knuckles and called it "Sonic and Knuckles 2" and revamped those levels it could be the greatest game ever.

I agree with that my good sir

SoBe Clock · January 25, 2009, 04:00:58 PM

Okay so what are the nighttime levels like then?

EDIT: I should say that I liked the original 3 Sonic the Hedgehogs, Sonic Advance 1&2, Sonic CD, and Sonic Adventure 1&2.

Also Sonic and the Secret Rings wasn't too bad.

but it didn't had the same quality of the past games, it lost the flavor

Demos are rarely as good as the full game. The gameplay is adequate (at least on the Wii version I played), but the story and progression is aggressively stupid.

Also you have to walk around in a city for hours and talk to people who usually just bitch and moan about their lives and say nothing important.

Hmmm, If this is true, I'll probably just rent it and try it out.

I don't see the big deal bout Sonic CD, people talk like it's the greatest game in the series.

I wouldn't say its the best. It's just really good.

EDIT: Also I like beat 'em ups so I might not have a problem with the nighttime levels.

Yahtzee says the game sucks, Yahtzee's words are always truth, therefore the game sucks.

Yahtzee was completely wrong about GTA4, SSBB, and EVE Online, so I can't always trust him. Plus I heard later, on Game Damage, he admitted that he had fun with the daytime levels of the game.

Oh OK.

Good luck not having your own opinions then.

EDIT: I like Yahtzee and usually agree with him. I'm just saying he's been wrong a few times.

TabascoClock · January 25, 2009, 04:24:38 PM

I admit the daytime levels are fun, but they're about only 30% of the game.

To be honest, my agreement with yahtzee just seems strange to me, all of my opinions are my own, and yahtzee just shares them, it's odd

And you have to rescue a guy named Professor Pickle.

Professor

FUCKING
