kek, unleashed has a high skill ceiling but is easy to get into. shitters like you take advantage of this and know damn well it isnt true. unless you think your E rank 8 minute spagonia and adabat runs as a result of your "hold right to win" technique is the pinnacle of the game.

The series died in 2010 with colors, how ironic. Sales have been getting lower and lower ever since and unleashed is one of the best selling sonics ever

Aside from the Werehog bringing the game down a little, it was still a fresh mechanic that wasn't downright awful like other Sonic games.

Unleashed was the last Sonic game to be made full of love and care

I cant. Playing the game is so bizarre. Its like going through a pixar movie and every continent is so beautifully recreated and inspired. I actually enjoyed both sonics, the story and tone was perfect for sonic, best music ever in a game, lots of replay value from side missions, npcs, exp, and just being damn fun to replay. Lots of room for improvement, great DLC for the most part. Unleashed is a very lovingly put together game and they really went all out as an apology for sonic 06. Its incredible

Pretty sure Sega have said Sonic consistently sells better on Nintendo platforms ever since they went third-party (and AdvDX and Adv2B probably sold better than the originals) so unless you have a source on that then you're full of shit. They made the exclusivity deal for a good reason.

>>339460097
I haven't played Uneashed outside of the Generations mod project, but I agree with you. The atmosphere is the best the franchise has had, and the soundtrack is almost unrivaled.

I remember the pre-release days of Unleashed and seeing the devs blogs entries with them saying how much care they put into stuff like the hedgehog engine and not wanting the game to look like just another platformer and such.

I always found this cutscene charming.

no

360: 30fps everywhere except adabat day, some hubs, and loading in eggmanland
ps3: 60fps when looking at the ground, 30fps actually, more frame drops
>>
>>339460740
If they ever make a PC port I hope it's based on the PS3 version simply because then a good PC can run the entire game in 60 fps without being locked to 30.
>>
>>339460573
Unleashed cross 4 or 5 mil
Colors just did under 2 or went just over
Generations a little less, maybe pc sales built up over time and moved it past 2 mil now

Lost world and boom, under a million each
>>
>>339460923
When theres choice, developers will always choose to port 360 games to pc over ps3. The 360 one is seriously better. Just because a console game is at 30 doesnt mean the pc port is locked at 30.

I just cant get over the physics of generations. I tried the physics swap mod but its just not the same. Im so used to unleasheds controls and they just feel so much better to me. Same with the hud, reduced boost, boost filter not being as good, sonic being slower, the blue trail that follows sonic. Whenever i need to play unleashed i start up my 360. Its all conveniently setup thanks to the great hub and I love having access to the night levels

Funny, i was at gamestop today and saw it on the section. Think it was 15 or 20 bux but you can probably find it on amazon for 10 or less. Its a hedgehog engine game so it has proof of being easy to port to pc, so maybe. Its just the reception to it is what is holding them back...but at its core there is a fantastic lovingly crafted game put together with great value and contents. Will most people like all of it? Probably not, but it offers tons to do and see

If it came to pc I would literally buy 3 copies. 1 for me, 1 for a friend, and 1 to giveaway here. I love unleashed so much

It's been so long since I played Unleashed so I can't really comment on how I felt at the time but it's been nagging me in the back of my mind for days recently and I've been listening to its soundtrack a lot. I think what held me off from really appreciating it wasn't the werehog but the medal collecting that was required.
>>
>>339460660
It's really sad, Sonic Unleashed is super polished, and almost everything about it is top notch, even the story is well made, but one flaw pretty much dragged the game's image through the mud, and I think it sort of traumatized Sonic Team. Colors and Generations are pretty good, but they have nowhere near the same amount of care put into it, probably to avoid disappointments in case they didn't do well.

I didn't play it myself but I do know it was a day and night stage in one.

Its a giant death trap, truly eggmans dream to be that hes been wanting since SA1. It uses both sonic and has tons of deathly sections. Almost everyone on their first time admits to it taking over an hour. But with good enough practice you can get it to 10-12 minutes and lower if you glitch. The world record is 3 minutes.

>>339463197
I dont even think it was that bad. A lot of medals were out in the open that required the player to simply just check an extra nook and cranny or break something and there it was. I dont know what you played up to or if you even beat it, but some levels just were easy medals. Chun nan, spagonia, and adabat night poured them on you and all it took was a little exploration. Day levels would reward you with medals when learning and taking shortcuts but again also needed to be fully explored if youre going for them all. Village and stage hubs just poured you medals and giving souvenirs to the professor would net you easy medals too.

Is it an issue for a particularly average/casual player? Sure, but its really overblown way to much I feel

I fucking love how the level design shows this off so beautifully. It's all so hellishly dickish and is the first sonic stage I've ever played to make me feel like sonic team wanted to make an accurate representation of one of eggman's fortresses
>>
>>339465546
Thats the beauty of it. Its twisted and dark and maniacal and grimy and metallic and everything else but its also clearly eggman since he plasters his mug everywhere and its made under the guise of being a theme park. Its so devilishly and beautifully put together and it doesnt show in just graphics and design but in gameplay to since its so hard and theres so many tricky areas. But like with everything else, 95% of players said it was to hard and now were never going to get such a dickish brutal final stage again. Terminal velocity, planet wisp, and lava mountain are signs of how the next game is going to end...
>>
>>339463205
Generations is an odd one. On one hand it was a loveletter to fans with levels wonderfully reimagined in HD, and on the other there's the shitty bosses and lackluster story. The lack of DLC was also a wasted opportunity.

Boost to win is a blanket term. At the end of the day, Unleashed and games like it require that you boost to win the stage. You may not be boosting the entire time, but you're definitely doing it the majority of the time. There is no way around this fact. Everything else after that is up for debate.

Personally, I think it's a shallow gimmick that takes away any real interactivity the player might have had in favor of small jumping sections, rail hopping, and in Unleashed's case, QTEs. It just gets dull after a while because by design the experience is always going to be the same. It's certainly serviceable and I do enjoy it to a degree, but I think 3D Sonic could do better if Sonic Team really put their minds to it.

But people like boosting and Lost World and Boom weren't received well (for various good reasons) so that's what we'll get until people complain again. It's frustrating to me, but it could be worse.

Maybe they'll actually attempt recreating Classic Sonic's physics this time in the anniversary game. Not holding my breath on that one.

>>339468319
Now this shit was quite literally boost2win. At least SA2's version made you think about how to approach the boss, even if it was stupidly simple once you figured it out. Generations' is just holding down X for five minutes.
