Jul 28, 2023this one is really not the best but not the worst the graphics are not bad even for a 2008 game im really not a big sonic fun my self but i dont hate

Mar 23, 2023While the werehog stages can be incredibly frustrating at times, the exhillarating daytime stages, the decent story, the fantastic art/sound design and polish all partially make up for it.

Sep 14, 2022Wiping nearly all the mistakes of Sonic '06 off its sneakers and packing plenty of positive changes of its own, Sonic Unleashed brought the franchise back to a sense of challenging, fun, but there is the commonly frustrating caveat of its uneven pacing, a certain required Sun Medal collect-a-thon towards the end, and underwhelming new characters.

Jan 8, 2022Kinda cool Sonic game, which is pretty rare for such suffering franchise. Werehog gameplay is... interesting, seriously. Modern Sonic + Boost gameplay in Unleashed is the best concidering another boost 3D Sonic games. Eggman land for will be the bst final level from the whole series. Worth to play it even in nowadays.

Apr 9, 2021It's a decent enough stab at Sonic and massively improves over the clearly unfinished 06. But it has 1 main problem and it's not the werehogs gameplay, it's the poor checkpointing and overlong levels the werehog fights through.

Mar 1, 2019A shame the day stages of this game had to be drageed down by the night stages. But even then it's still a preety good game with and interesting story, great graphics and great character/moster designs.

Oct 21, 2018Despite the pretty graphics, great music and creativity that Sonic Unleashed has, the daytime stages rely too much on boosting and lack platforming and the night time werehog stages are simply repetitive and boring resulting in a game that is both mediocre and forgettable.

Mar 23, 2017This is the only 3D Sonic I've played and it's okay. I wish there weren't any werehog stuff and the levels are too simplistically designed compared to the Genesis games. Still this game has high production values and is memorable.

Feb 25, 2017Sorry but this game is more frustrating than it should've been. I love the graphics and it can be fun but it's more of an endurance test with sloppy controls and poor werehog sections. It's also filled with boring hubworlds. The daytime sections can be fun but they have problems and there's too much fluff.

May 14, 2016first of all sonic games should not have a deep story and only the sonic stages are decent the stages that sonic becomes a monster are at the very least bad they feel like a rip off of other good beat em up games

May 13, 2014Honestly, not that bad. It's a decent Sonic the Hedgehog game. Very much reminds me of Sonic Adventure. If you can pick it up at a good price, I would definitely recommend it, if you are a Sonic the Hedgehog fan.

Sep 22, 2013This game is a massive improvement on Sonic 06, but it still has problems like the Moon Medals and the homing attack can be glitchy but it's still a good game.

As much as I disliked lumbering through levels as Sonic’s hulky Werehog, I disliked hunting through the hub worlds looking for coins even more. Sega, if you really want to fix Sonic, the first thing you should do is stop trying to fix him.
-
Ultimately, this simply isn't the fresh start Sonic fans were so desperately hoping for...but at least it's not as execrable as the last two efforts.

Sonic Unleashed is a glorious return to true console form for Sonic.
