Sonic Unleashed
A new Sonic game is in the works. It's apparantly going to be for the Ps3, Xbox360 and the Wii. I can't see how the Wii could handle it though. Last edited by Drakul; 04-02-2008 at 01:32 AM. |

Sonic the Hedgehog (PS3/360) was poor.
Sonic and the Secret Rings (Wii) was meh. I don't hold out much hope. |

Sonic sucks when he's in 3D. They never can seem to get decent gameplay out of it. It feels clunky.
Game companies need to realize that the 2D platformer should not be dead. 3D works in some cases like Mario, but others, like Sonic, completely kill it. |

The Wii could handle it, although there will definately be a lack of some elements that will take the hardware prowess of the PS3 and 360. I have Sonic: Legend of The Rings for the Wii and it's graphically beautiful for what it can do...Granted, it isn't a great game but it's ok if you're a Sonic fan.
I'm not gonna expect too much out of this latest excursion either. |

I loved the Dreamcast Sonic games. anyway the trailer looks alright. We'll see how it goes. (Completely agree with what Xero said about 2D/3D platformers.

Yeah Sonic Adventure was the last good Sonic game and it was the first good one since like Sonic & Knuckles.

Sonic Advance 1-3 are all great games. Sonic Rush and Sonic Rush: Adventure were both good as well... however Sonic is always ass on consoles. By the looks of this it's 2.5D, which could actually make this not ass. Has this been confirmed yet? I know small bits of "info" have been released, but I don't think Sega has confirmed anything yet.

Yeah, there is a Sonic Gems Collection aswell. It has Sonic R and Sonic CD on it among others. Plus one or two non-Sonic games hidden away.

As much as I've really disdained most of the 3D Sonic games, I've got to admit, that footage does look like a lot of fun. Here's hoping that the actual gameplay itself stacks up.

Yeah, the 3D side scrolling thing reminds me of Sonic Rush.

Why, why, WHY a werewolf gimmick?! GOD they got something with the 2.5D stuff but they had to push it to wacky concepts!

It's like just when they get their hopes up with the promise of fun gameplay, they were really just winding up to bash you over the head with stupid.
An already-anthropomorphic hedgehog thing that transforms into another anthropomorphic wolf-hedgehog thing? And you just know the big monster form is going to be clunky and slow, which defeats the whole purpose of a Sonic game. Just.....rrrrggggghhhh..... |

On second thought, the GBA/DS Sonic games seem to be pretty decent.

Gimmicks can be good in platform games if done correctly. Just look at the Mario series.

New trailer for Sonic Unleashed. This video is for the 360 version but apparantly the Ps3 and Wii versions looks and play exactly the same as the 360 version.
The game looks awesome. I don't think I've seen Sonic run so fast but now he looks to actually live up to his name. I'm not sure how the Wii version will be able to match the 360/Ps3 version graphically though. |

*sigh*
Y'know, the levels where you play as regular Sonic look freaking amazing. If they went and remade, say, Sonic 3/ Sonic and Knuckles with that engine, they could have an instant classic on their hands. But that 'were-hog' thing still looks retarded. And the fact that I'd have to spend half of the game trudging through half-assed God of War wannabe levels to get back to the fun stuff has pretty much turned me off altogether. |
