"Hey, i finally played Sonic Unleashed / General Sonic Discussion"
random
i know.
Unleashed. i played the Wii & 360 versions
and quite honestly, i found the game to be very, very fun
the 360 version could do without the venturing around a la Sonic Adventure. and the unnecessary nunchuck controls on the Wii were awful
but Sonic ACTUALLY runs fast in this game and you can fuck up like a racing game by not watching where you're going rather than falling victim to horrible, horrible level design and glitches for a change
i could really give a fuck about the story. i just wanna run
i still say this should have been Sonic & Knuckles 2 instead of them tackin on this werehog gimmick. too late now i guess
i thought it was gonna be on some Sonic 06 shit (which is BY FAR one of the most embarrassing games i've ever played), but i have to say as far as the gameplay, its better than Sonic Adventure to me
what this post is REALLY about: after playing about half the game on both systems, it kinda hit me that the whole situation with Sonic is just like a musician havin label problems. it ain't Sonic, its the janky ass people behind the scenes
i know ya'll got better things to do, but lets kill some time

especially in those levels where Metal Mario takes FLUDD.
But Sonic always had that Whoa factor on the Genesis when you took off and literally couldn't stop until you got to the end of the level. --------------------------------------- http://i36.tinypic.com/8k5w.jpg

if Sonic never fell off, I probably would ride for Sonic. But I'm picking Mario. Super Mario Galaxy sealed the deal for me. I can always count on Mario to provide quality platforming. The only problem I had with Mario 64 and Sunshine were that some of the levels were too big. With SMG, they kept the world open but not so open that you would wander off. --------------------------------------- http://i36.tinypic.com/8k5w.jpg

23. "i dont even see how you PLAYED let alone liked Heroes" In response to Reply # 7
my god I could hardly stand playing the first level to the point where i just said "fuck it" and mailed it to my cousin who is a die-hard sonic fan and even he couldnt play it.
everything about that game felt loose and off from the movement, the controls and the camera and the combat.

Everything is so big and real for no reason at all. The WORLD is about to be destroy. The BIG BUSINESS takeover of the WORLD will ENSLAVE EVERYTHING. It's comically far too much reality invested into his adventures. It could benefit from being a little more light hearted and not forceing to attach this weak ass sense of... whatever the fuck they've been going for with all those punk ass Sonic titles they've been releasing. *shrug*. I mean, don't you think so?

Robotnik's goal in pretty much every game has been to destroy everything
mario is basically the knight in shining armor saving the princess from the dragon archetype
sonic has always been inherent good defeating inherent evil
megaman too for that matter. Jak & Daxter, Ratchet and Clank, etc.
i actually think its a good thing probably because i was so fond of the saturday morning cartoon and the comicbooks. i really like how evil robotnik is portrayed. it makes playing as sonic a little more rewarding
but i think it could be executed MUCH better. Sonic 3 & Knuckles was probably the best that i've seen the story integrated into the game without words or cutscenes.

When they brought that little blue blur into contact with humans is when shit got ugly for the god. All "humans" have done in the Sonic universe is make it gay. Robotnik should be the only one.

to this day, that blows my mind a lil. the Genesis games were obviously known classics, but I never got into them much. my favorite to this day is Sonic Adventure.
