  • Sonic Unleashed For Xbox 360
Platform For Display: Xbox 360
Let me start off by saying I'm a die-hard Sonic fan, and I've been playing Sonic games from the Genesis all the way up to Xbox 360. I must say this is one of my favorites. The Daytime stages are everything a sonic game should be. Great graphics, cool level designs, 2D and 3D elements, classic moves, and supersonic speed! The Nighttime stages are not as good however. The graphics are still outstanding, but the stages feel incomplete. The controls are ok, but the fights lack depth. The werehogs' movements feel very slow and poorly timed, making those levels very difficult. It seems like they were going for Mario-style adventure levels combined with some fighting, but failed miserably! There are a few different paths, but they usually wind up being dead ends. It's basically a day stage only 20X slower! Overall if you can make through the boring werehog stages, then this is one awesome game with HUGE replay value. Great job SEGA just stick to speed from now on! ... show more

  • I can't believe they could make a game this good so soon after the failed "Sonic 06"
Platform For Display: Xbox 360
This game is so underrated it's ridiculous. If you're a Sonic fan in any way, just buy it. The price is so low, you have almost nothing to lose. Compared to the Sonic the Hedgehog game from 2006, which was probably the worst game I ever purchased for the Xbox 360, this game is amazing. The levels are fast-paced and actually fun. Being the werehog is obviously not as fun as levels where you are normal Sonic, but it's not as bad as some people are making it out to be. I would love if they made another game very similar to this, but without the werehog gimmick. The real fun of this game is replaying levels to learn the paths and ins and outs to it. When you can race through a level from beginning to end while holding boost down the whole time, you just get a very awesome feeling of accomplishment. I will admit though, the later levels become a lot harder to do this on, and can be frustrating at first while you take time learning them. For under twenty bucks though, it is a definite BUY. ... show more

  • Sonic Unleashed around the world
Platform For Display: Xbox 360
Welcome my friends to my Sonic Unleashed for the Xbox 360 Nintendo Wii the PS 2 and PS3. After the disastrous events of Sonic’s 15th anniversary a lot of people thought that sonic transition to 3d was horrible so they decided to go back to basics with the next generation of gaming with Sonic Unleashed. Story/Plot: Sonic Unleashed begins with a cold open that sees Sonic confronting his nemesis, Doctor Eggman, bounding around a fleet of spaceships. After the defeat of several of his robots, Sonic transforms into Super Sonic. After a brief chase through the airships, Sonic corners Eggman. However, Eggman manages to trap him using a powerful new ray weapon which drains the power of the Chaos Emeralds, causing them to turn gray and useless. He then uses the Emeralds' energy to fire an enormous laser and unleash a powerful beast, Dark Gaia, from the center of the planet, which has devastating consequences, shattering the planet into seven pieces.In addition, the ray and drained Chaos Emeralds have the unforeseen side-effect of transforming Sonic into a "Werehog" — a beast form with greater strength and abilities — at night. Eggman then ejects Sonic into space, who then lands safely onto the planet below. After landing along with the Emeralds, Sonic encounters a friendly creature who appears to suffer amnesia. Assuming he has caused it with his fall, Sonic decides to assist him in his quest to find out who he is, and the creature becomes a guide for the player; Sonic soon gives him the nickname Chip. Sonic's quest begins, and with the help of some old friends, such as Amy and Tails, he attempts to solve the crisis by traveling the world's continents, finding shrines that will fix the Emeralds, in order to return the world, and himself, to normal. After six of the seven continents are returned to normal, Chip is able to regain his memory; he is in fact Dark Gaia's opposite, Light Gaia. Since the beginning of time, the two of them had been in a cycle where Dark Gaia would break the planet apart, and Light Gaia would put it back together. Chip was released along with Dark Gaia, but because both of them were released prematurely, he lost his memory, and Dark Gaia was broken apart. They are able to place the last Chaos Emerald in the shrine on the final continent at Eggman's new empire, "Eggmanland", but are interrupted by him; Sonic then defeats Eggman who is using a robot that utilizes Dark Gaia's power. During the battle, the three sink into the core of the Earth and encounter a now-whole Dark Gaia. Eggman orders Dark Gaia to destroy Sonic, but it turns on him, knocking him away with one of its tentacles, and absorbs the power that turned Sonic into a Werehog, curing Sonic of lycanthropy, and uses that power to become Semi-Perfect Dark Gaia. Dark Gaia then attacks a defenseless Sonic and Chip, but Chip protects them both and calls all of the Gaia temples together and forms the Gaia Colossus, and begins to fight Dark Gaia. The Gaia Colussus seemingly defeats Dark Gaia, but Dark Gaia is not finished with them or the Earth yet, and consumes the entire world in darkness, becoming Perfect Dark Gaia in the process. Chip then gives the restored Chaos Emeralds to Sonic, allowing him to turn into Super Sonic and defeat it; Dark Gaia then sinks back into the planet, but the battle takes its toll on Super Sonic. Chip saves an exhausted Sonic by throwing him to the surface, before returning himself to the inside of the planet; he leaves behind his necklace and some parting words, and Sonic places the necklace on his hand as a bracelet to remind him of their adventure together. The game ends as Sonic speeds off with Tails, who flies alongside him on the coastline in the Tornado plane. A good game story that’s not too complicated. Gameplay: Sonic Unleashed is a platform game in which the player controls the titular Sonic the Hedgehog in two modes: fast-paced levels that take place during daytime, showcasing Sonic's trademark speed as seen in previous games in the series, and slower, night-time levels, during which Sonic's Werehog form emerges, and gameplay switches to an action-based, brawler style of play, in which Sonic battles Gaia enemies (those created by the main enemy in the game, Dark Gaia). Each level takes place on a particular continent, each of which is based on a real-world location. In sections of the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of the game, the player may choose to advance the time of day in order to play as either Sonic or the Werehog; in the PlayStation 2 and Wii versions, time is advanced automatically. Daytime levels focus on Sonic's speed, and to this extent, sees the player control Sonic through fast-moving stages containing both 2D and 3D styles of gameplay. 2D sections are reminiscent of the Mega Drive/Genesis-era Sonic games, where the player controls Sonic in a side-scrolling fashion, while 3D sections see the camera placed behind Sonic, so the player may move in all directions. In addition to moves available in past games, such as the homing attack, new moves are also introduced. For instance, a new sidestep feature known as the Quick Step is available, allowing Sonic to dodge left and right, and a Drift feature, which allows Sonic to make tighter turns without slowing down. The game also features a gameplay mechanic previously used in the Sonic Rush series called the Sonic Boost, which greatly increases Sonic's speed, allowing him to smash through objects, destroy enemies instantly, or even access different level paths. In the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions, an on-screen "Ring Energy" meter displays how much boost is available. The amount of boost remaining may be increased by collecting more rings, and is decreased by using the Boost. In contrast, the PlayStation 2 and Wii versions of the game represent available Boost using bars, which may be added by performing "Action Chains", destroying multiple enemies in quick succession through the use of homing attacks, or by collecting rings. Nighttime features slower-paced, action-oriented levels, in which Sonic transforms into the Werehog, a beast form that has great strength and stretchable arms. Gameplay here sees the player use a variety of melee and combo attacks to defeat large numbers of enemies, collect items, and move items around to advance through the level, and use his stretchable arms to cling to distant objects; simple puzzle elements are also featured. Collecting rings in these levels replenishes the Werehog's health, while a special move, Unleashed Mode, allows the Werehog to channel his energy into increasing the power of his attacks for a short time. Nighttime levels are adjusted in the Wii version to allow greater use of the Wii Remote, such that players may control the arms of the Werehog by using the Wii Remote and Nunchuk in order to grab onto objects and proceed in the levels. The Wii version of the game also expands upon the ratio of nighttime levels to daytime, with more than three times as many nighttime levels (twenty-five in all). After nighttime levels are completed, Dark Gaia Points are gained, allowing access to bonus moves. In addition to these two gameplay types, Sonic Unleashed also features hubworlds, in which the player may reveal, as well as advance, the story of the game. Hubworlds operate differently depending on the version of the game being played; the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions feature fully interactive, explorable 3D hubworlds, similar to those in Sonic 2006, in which townspeople may be interacted with and side quests may be undertaken, in order to gain experience or unlock items, such as artwork, videos and music tracks. In contrast, the PlayStation 2 and Wii versions feature menu-based map systems, in which players simply click on areas to talk to townspeople and find information. Within both day and nighttime levels are medals that Sonic may collect, two types of which exist: Sun and Moon. In the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions, collecting these medals allows the player to level up Sonic's Sun and Moon stats, and these must be increased to reach new stages in the game, with a certain number of Sun medals for Hedgehog levels, and a certain number of Moon medals for Werehog levels. Because only the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions feature playable hubworlds, these are also the only versions in which Sun and Moon medals may be found by exploring the towns, talking to the citizens, and completing side quests. In the PlayStation 2 and Wii versions, Sun and Moon medals are earned after completing stages and clearing their objectives. The medals are used to open up doors in Gaia gates, which can earn bonus content.

  • Very Good
Platform For Display: Xbox 360
This game is very good IGN & Game Spot give this version of the game such crap even when it doesn't deserve all the bad rap it's gotten, although it has some cheap spots as all games do have. The Werehog's levels only stretch out (no pun intended) if you look through the levels for the sun & moon medals which I do, and of course the Sonic levels are fast and fun. As you can probably tell this is one of my favorite Sonic games, in my opinion this is the best Sonic game to come out since Sonic Heroes (yes I liked that game). BUT BE WARNED THOUGH, IF YOU ARE A YOUNG KID THAT ISN'T THAT EXPERIENCED WITH VIDEO GAMES PLAY THROUGH ALL THE OTHER SONIC GAMES BEFORE THIS FIRST NOT INCLUDING SONIC THE HEDGEHOG (2006). But if you are really experienced with video games and especially a fan of the Sonic series by far I'd really suggest buying this game. ... show more

I saw it came as “new”, and only for $15. I thought it would be a thing where it’s only that packaging or something like that. Fortunately, I was wrong. It showed up in two days, and shipped the night I bought it. It arrived with original cellophane wrapping, perfect condition cd and manual, and runs as expected. For reference, I got the Xbox 360 edition, if that helps. ... show more
