On a quest for domination once more, Dr. Eggman unleashes a slumbering beast from the center of the world. The event causes a devastating tremor that splinters the world into seven continents and triggers a hair-raising transformation in Sonic. With the world divided and Sonic altered with new abilities and powers, the stage is set for a climactic battle… for when the sun sets, a whole new adventure awakens!

  • Sonic’s World Transformed: Sonic maintains his high-speed abilities during the day, but at night he is transformed into a mysterious dark form with incredible never-before-seen abilities including 3D-action brawling and amazing agility.
  • Tight Navigation and Speed Control: Players accelerate to super speed with ‘Sonic Boost’ by collecting rings to increase Sonic’s ‘Ring Energy.’ Using ‘Quick Step,’ players will quickly move left or right to avoid obstacles instantly. Additionally, ‘Speed Drift’ allows players to rocket through turns without slowing down.
  • Powerful New Engine and Cinematic Graphics: With its new propietary “Hedgehog Engine,” Sonic Unleashed enhances the classic 2D perspective with mind-blowing 3D stages. Other next-gen technology capabilities include global illumination, grid computing, continuous data streaming and an intricate path finding system.
  • Enhanced and Expanded Environments: Many unique and fascinating continents offer the player an opportunity to save the world in a dynamic, high-speed experience. In addition to exploring exciting unlockable areas, players dash through up to nine locations resembling real-life destinations including the Great Wall of China, Arctic Pole glaciers and many more.

Sonic Blazing on the Right Path
By: Leigh    Favorite Category: Action    Date: Wednesday, Nov 26, 2008
Challenge:
Sonic Unleashed will definitely have you going through the levels a few times over to come back and find hidden things or to just improve your overall ranking in order to obtain Sun and Moon Medals, which work similar to Power Stars in Super Mario 64.

Graphics:
It is definitely pushing the Wii to its limits. Its constantly running at a smooth frame rate with no slowdowns whatsoever. Lush backgrounds match their environments perfectly, and look similar to what I would assume their real world counterparts would look like.

Length:
Completing the main game is not gonna take you very long. Obtaining all of the bonuses will definitely take you a while though.

Storyline:
The story isn't the most motivating but it'll get you through it.

Controls:
3 different controller types are available to use. Traditional Gamers can opt for the Gamecube controller or the Wii's Classic controller. The third controller available to use is the Wiimote and n...[More]

Good but far from perfect.

Sonic Unleashed is the first 3d sonic game I have purchased since the Dreamcast days and its a pretty good game that does somethings right and well to be blunt a few things went the wrong direction. The story is pure stupid. A little kid might find more value in the story than I did. The only plus to the story is the cutscenes do look good.

Graphically I think the game looks good enough but...[More]

Not Like Other Sonic Games
By: Fright Guy    Favorite Category: Shooter    Date: Sunday, Jul 19, 2009
This game is pretty good. But its not like other sonic games. It (like it says) unleashes a whole new side of sonic. Its cool how it shows what sonic would be like if they made him fight more. I think after they finish the storybook series,they need to do a werehog series. The story is good but they went overboard with the earth thing. Its kinda like a sonic game about how to take care of the eart...[More]
