  • I actually liked this version. Xbox 360 version was kinda hard

  • i hate the Wii version the Xbox 360 and PS3 had it adventure

  • I got here from Dr Mario

  • true why would they force this on fans. i for one play sonic for speed and i have since sonic 1

  • The reason why ppl like the wii one better is only cuuz its EASIER!. ppl just dnt knoow how to play intensed games like Sonic unleashed (Xbox/PS3)

  • @kidd007LIghtning I only like Wii version because I only have Wii/PS2 xD

  • WHy doesnt he do igns reviews. He is amazing at it. Whoever the hell did the ps3/xbox360 review is a dipshit who doesnt know what the hell he is talking about.

  • Heres what i think the Wii version shoulda done to make it as lovable as the 360/PS3 version.

    Forget 3 werehog levels and have only 2. Make the "3rd level of the werehog stage" into a 2nd act of the day stage. That day stage can be like a sunset stage thats much more harder than the 1st Act. It seems equal and more challenging. Day - 2 stages, Werehog - 2 stages. Maybe the 2nd act day stages can be longer than the first acts.

  • heres one thing stop fighting about freakin consoles who cares about freakin graphic i have the ps2 version and you know what i still enjoy it if you hate unleashed go play colors its like unleashed without werehog!

  • At first I had a Wii and bought this version. It was pretty fun. Even the Werehog stages were pretty good. But getting the 360 version is a mistake. The night stages are long and much more boring and even day stages sucked

  • @JibbyJhizzable Guess everyone has different opinions.

    I bought the Wii version first...loved it...but it got old pretty quick. So I sold it.

    I bought the 360 version 2 and 1/2 years later...loved it. Still do.

    There's only ONE Werehog level in each zone. It's longer, but at least it's not 5 different levels.

    Oh, and the Daytime levels...phenominal. Absolutely phenominal.

    But...that's my opinion. You have yours, and that's good for you!

  • Once again Sega has better graphics than Nintendo... remember, the SNES came out after the Genesis...

  • 3:55 - 4:09

    Well said. See, that Hillary freak who reviewed the 360 version, and many other people, just say WERE HOG IS BAD!!! but it isn't. Not exactly.

    Finally, a good ign reviewer...

  • the reason sonic unleashed was so great because e3 was inproduction of this game for 7 YEARS

  • I have to say, the idea of sonic turning into a wherehog is a really good idea. it just wasen tmade properly.

  • matt tops rich any day. he was a much better reviewer than rich. rich is lame and boring. matt goes more into depth of the game.

  • IGN ignerent gaming network

  • Is this real or fake

  • @burritodude1 I know a good Sonic game is too good to be true :/

  • @NonstopRam I was talking bout the review. it seems like a parody of ign

  • @burritodude1 I see

  • Well lets see... maybe there weere more night levels to take advantage of the Wii's controls. Piss-ass lazy idiots can't learn to get off the couch and get some motion into more than just your fingers and mind.

  • notice how they use the wii version, which, in my opinion is inferior to the 360 version. more day time levels, WAY FEWER night time levels, and better speed. again, my opinion

  • @silverduelist7

    And worse controls, stupid button set-up, tedious hub worlds, medal requirement to actually proceed and a more ridiculous trial-and-error level design than on the Wii.

    Graphics is the only inferior aspect of the Wii version.

  • @SmashBroDx Not really. the Hub worlds are very awesome and fun to explore. Everything about the 360 version is better then the Wii version.

  • @pkstarstorm1up

    The hub worlds weren't the only problem I mentioned.

  • Everyone is all butthurt over the 360/ps3 review. They start going around and saying IGNorant fails. You retarded sonic fans...

    It's not the company it's the individuals who do the reviews. I guarantee that if IGN was just an unknown youtube channel that did the same exact review you would give two craps. I seriously question why i'm still part of this fanbase when it's full of Rehtardz .

  • @icetray123 they had a jackass to do the review, most of what he says about it isn't true.

  • @SegaMario Actually it was true it just wasn't said in a way that Sonic fans would want to hear it. Sonic Unleashed is a horrible game and I agree with him on that 100%. Even if he did a proper review but gave it a bad score Sonic fans would STILL be butt hurt about it because this fanbase is full of RehTardz.

  • I didnt like the: werehog levels X5, daytime level X1. If they where back to back i'd have no problem

  • DID YOU SEE THE EGG BEETLE HEALTH METER?!?!?!?!?! IT STRECHED ACROSS THE WHOLE FUCKING SCREEN!!!!!!

  • @ImSEGAfan100 I think the 3DS is supposed to have HD graphics

  • I think xbox werehog was ok, however wii werehog sucked

  • @koopa2222 dude its Obvious that Wii werehog sucked, because the wii doesnt have good graphics, and he seems the he expels pixels all over (lol), But in PS3 an Xbox 360 the graphics are better, MUCH better, and thats why u think the x box werehog is better :D. BTW i wish the wii had better graphics :(

  • @ImSEGAfan100 Also the gameplay of wii werehog consist of flailing your arms versus mashing buttons and lame platforming on the Xbox360/PS3 versions

  • @ImSEGAfan100 GRAPHIC FREAK xD

  • OMGS why does Wii suck so bad?? xD

  • I don't think the Werehog is bad, I don't think that the story is bad, I don't think the hubworlds are bad, and I don't think the game is bad: It's just that it's all just so inconsistant, pointless, time-filling and boring most of the time. I will say that I've spent more time replaying the Sonic levels than I spent completing the main story, however.

  • 4:00 IGN shouldn't talk about themselves like that. XD IGN FAIL.

  • Finally,The BEST REVIEWER IN DA WORLD!THATS'S WHAT WEVE WATED 4!

  • If Sonic Colours is just on the Wii, that means he'll probably be reviewing it! If that's the case, Sonic Colours can easily get a high 9, if SEGA doesn't do anything silly:D

    If it get's a 9.1 or above in terms of IGN ratings, Sonic Colours will be officially the highest rated Sonic game, EVER!! (Currently, it's Sonic Rush- with a 9/10)

  • Wii/Ps2 version is terrible PS3 and 360 for the win. I had the wii version and wasted my money until I got the ps3 version.

  • matt cass was great i miss him. why do people hate on ign guys for having opinions (which they support well)? what's wrong with craig harris, greg miller, scott bromley, etc? Daemon hatfield isn't nearly as bad as people hate on him for...

  • I like this reviewer

  • This would have been a great game, if they left out the werehog.

  • @gamergirl4600 i agree the were hog levels are fun but not for a sonic game

  • I enjoyed watching this review and almost comepletely agreed with him, aside from the village hub-word (it IS kinda pointless, but it only takes a few minutes to scroll through) and... that's about it. The humor and pleasantries were enjoyable, and I much preferred this review to the 360/PS3 one. You can tell Matt has a grip on the real feel of a Sonic game. Just throwing my two cents out there.

  • @hopeberry29

    The Wii version is more liked than the Xbox 360 version, but gamers in general bash both games, and simply say the Wii version is more tolerable.

    if you are an existing Sonic fan, I recommend the Xbox 360 version. if you AREN'T a Sonic Fan, get the Wii version.

    Anyone who isn't a Sonic fan would get extremely pissed during Medal collecting and trial/error daytime level segments.

    Of course, only the Genesis and Sonic Adventure games were decent. Everything else sucks

  • @itsokayright I have the Wii version myself, and I have to say that the daytime gameplay I've seen from the Xbox 360 version seems much more fast-paced than the Wii version (the boost system also works differently) and while some people dislike the hubworlds, it seems slightly less lazy than the still images of the Wii version, and it almost reminds me of Sonic Adventure. I probably could stand the medals to some extent if there is a better balance between day and night.

  • if this game was 90% daytime levels and 10% nighttime.....it would be the best sonic game ever

  • WE ARE NOT IMPRESSED BY HOW FAST THIS HEDGEHOG GOES.

  • You forgot they replaced Omochao with Chip, but I guess he doesn't bother you as much when you get farther in the game

  • i liked the werehog levels. suck it. big

  • @manfandan The only reason i didnt like the werehog levels, is because the lenght of it is like 10mins, whereas daytime level are only 2-3 mins.

  • @masterman280 So true.

  • What's up with the leveling up system in this game? I haven't played it, but this review keeps showing him collecting rings and then "Level Up!" shows up. What does leveling up do?

  • @Leathertoast more boost gauges and slightly faster but it only last for that level or until u get hit

  • You cant take half a game and play it and say man this is a great game, because theres another half and those were levels are just terrible.

  • get this guy to review sonic games not that Hillary guy!

  • oh yea another thing sonic unleashed on ps2 and wii as the werehog

    every time you meet a group of badguys you have to kill them to get through.on the 360 that happends every once in a while.

  • on the 360 the werehog is hard it takes ten times more hits to kill badguys. but on the ps2 daytime isnt that great. i suggest you get both!!! thats wat i did!

  • i like the 360 version better because there is a lot of day levels.

  • It's a disgrace that they made Sonic games for Sony/Microsoft. Anyways, the part I don't really like is the night stages. There long and boring to me.

  • I actually kinda like the werehog levels. when i first got the game a few days ago, i wasn't really looking forward to playing so many werehog levels and what a lot of people said about them made me feel even more un-anticipative. But after a while, they really grew on me. YES, I would choose day levels over night levels but still. But the night levels can be VERY, VERY cheap at times.

  • @Junior13113 i agree, and really i kinda like the brawling, interesting consept sega never used before and i like it.

  • i like how you go slower when your 2D becouse its more like oldschool

  • EPIC! YEAH

  • Thats backwards it's faster on the wii, but the boosts are shorter.

  • you cant trust wikipidia

  • Wikipedia isn't wrong in every single aspect.

    Sides, he wasn't serious.

  • Someone gets it.

  • If this game had a double layer disc, it would be more awesome than the 360 ver.

  • OMG, WHAT IF SONIC UNLEASHED WAS SPLIT IN 2!? Like 1 half of the disk is day,the other half is night.

  • @ipwn3duagain I don't think ANYONE would play the night disk! XD

  • Is it just me or does the werehog on the wii and ps2 seem faster than the werehog on the ps3 and 360?

  • While I still disagree with the review, at least this guy's voice is not ear screeching painful to listen to like the other guys', and I do respect his opinion more...

  • I wish IGN hired this guy to review the 360/PS3 version too, instead of that jackass Hillary whatever-his-girly-name-is, who vents his frustration out on the game over the fact that he can't play a Sonic game for shit.

  • @StalkerXIII im 14 and when i was 6 yrs old i couldn't play sonic games 4 shit either.

    but when i grew up i got SUPER GREAT at sonic

    and i always will be a sonic fan but if i ever came across goldstein i would kick the living daylights out of that loser:l

    ign better make a good review about sonic colors cause i gotta get that sonic hat and the multiplayer is to addicting also that game will mock all sonic games

    combined !

  • @StalkerXIII damn straight!!!

  • @StalkerXIII This guy may be better than Hilary, but he isn't a good reviewer either.

  • @StalkerXIII i know right they need him hes not a jackass but still hates the werehog

  • @StalkerXIII Im sorry but this shit didnt really deserve a higher rating then 4/10 its a poorly designed game and thats that!

  • 1:15 FAIL, wikipedia is not a very credible source of information... and I seriously doubt that all nintendo's cutscenes put together are shorter than the opening cinematic for the game

  • Matt's review of sonic unleashed is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyy better than that other guy's...

  • on the wii its brighter and the gameplay is great but once it goes to nighttime *makes farting noise*the gameplay totally sucks

  • all i have to say is that if u like the wii version then ull probably will love the ps3/360 version

  • I have both Versions, I only feel the same towards better both of them, mindless fun!

  • i thought they were almost the same

  • well maybe..but really only thing same is is they werehog day stages cutscenes ect

  • Sonic Rush is the answer for your 2D SOnic game needs.

  • the answer for your 3D sonic game needs is Sonic Adventures on the sega dreamcast

  • i think the wii version is plane and space out a lot. but i like both version

  • sonic unleashed for wii is WAY better than the other versions, 360 only has better boards, thats it

  • 360 and ps3 have betr night levels and graphics, but wii and ps2 are betr in everything else

  • yup

  • how is the wii verison that great

  • well, the wii version has better graphics an the game is fun because it allows you 2 swing the wiimote as a werehog an stuff like that

  • no offence but the graphics r better on the ps3 and 360

  • my arms never get tired and yes i do watch comparisons

  • then y did u say wii has better graphics

  • because 2 me it does, look, every has their opinions an mine is that i like the wii version better

  • in my opinon wii is WAY brighter lol so ya i just dont like ign AT ALL not for the mixed reveiw on sonic unleashed but other ga,es to

  • yea, ign sucks! i listen to gamestop an game cons lol

  • lol y does he like the werehog in this review but he hates in the ps3 version???

  • well! this was a nice review! although they didn't say the same at the ps3/xbox 360 versions,

  • look in wii review he loves the werehog but in ps3 he hates it wtf is that i swear ign really needs to reveiw on what the fans think not what they think

  • from what i've heard the werehog levels are better on the wii....i know they suck ass on the 360

  • trust me there not because of the controls on wii u move which hurt your hands and arms 360 more combat and funner

  • wi has gamecube controller and classic controller so it wont hurt so much.

  • but combat in the ps3 and 360 r WAY better in then the wii verison

  • true true so very very true but i still like the wii version/ps2s though to admit i actually got scared to death when i see werehog pop into a temple on ps2.

  • Yeah, that's intelligent. Do reviewers have crystal balls to predict what the fans are thinking? The reviewer's opinion is his own. Don't like it? Post your own review and STFU.

  • no im just angry that he bags on one of the kick ass after sonic adventure battle 2

  • I just don't get it. Why is the wii version considered to be much better than the ps3 one. What makes the wii version so much better. Sure there are some exclusive levels but they both have almost the same gamplay. whatever, unleashed is awesome.

  • dude people need to shut up there more sonic levels then werehog levels it is a FACT!!!!!!!!!!

  • you are an idiot there are more werehog levels then sonic levels and THIS IS A FACT!

    play the game -_- i saw a lets play

  • there are more sonic levels then werehog levels... count them even people at sonic stadium have counted there are more sonic levels then werehog levels idiot count them just because you saw a let's play on it doesn't mean there are more sonic levels then werehog levels

  • well excuse me and you didnt had to use the word "IDIOT" =)

  • yes i shouldn't have NERD RAGE!!!!!! XD

  • Actually its the opposite

  • no it's not count the levels and you'll see im right

  • Im right I did count This game is unbalanced. Im going to sleep. I ll talk about it later

  • Actually Its recorded on website for Sonic Unleashed. For every Sonic Level there are 3 or 4 werehog levels on the wii version.

    On the PS3 and 360 the number is almost balanced. The number of levels of the werehog and Sonic daystages are about even but the unbalance is in the stage length. The Day levels are too short and the Night Stages Drag on too long

  • I HAVE THE PS3 version and i don't know why i said that in capitals lol.. i like the night stages but i do agree they kind of drag on a little to long... the day levels are large but sense sonic runs so fast so the levels are realy short... and yeh i know day levels are to short and night levels are to long

  • yeah there are more sonic levels, its just the fact that the werehog levels are so long they get it mixed up

  • your talking about the 60 right

  • your talking about the 360 version right

  • so what if eggmans at it again?! bowser is always at it again in mario games yet they get a great reveiw

  • Calm down...he was just making a joke. The reason this game didn't get a great review is because it's majority is the Werehog, which is just not what a Sonic game should be about. It just doesn't feel like Sonic, and it doesn't even feel like it was half and half...it was tilted TOWARD the Werehog, when the Daytime stages were wonderful...

    They'll get there...soon.

  • Im a bif fan of Sonic, I loved daytime, I HATED night time.... I really hope that one day, Sega will make a Sonic game that will blow everyone's minds away.... I saw the review for the Black Kngith, 3.9 out of 10... ouch. Ill play it myself and find out. I like secret rings, and adventure 2... I just do not want to see Sonic die out with a bad name... Sega make a game with 100% Daytime Levels! And make Shadow a playable charactor will ya? I still think Shadow Needs a sequel, it wasn't that bad..

  • the guy that reviewed the xbxo360/PS3 version of the game probably only like gorey gun games and just becuz he an adult feels that he can give kidish games a bad rating cuz it doesn't have guns and shit

  • soooo i have the 360 version (it looked cool so i thought graphics would make it awesomer)

    so is 360 version better or is the wii version better

  • i like the wii version better because it feel closer to the classic sonic than the other versions. but of course, that is just my opinion on the matter ^^

  • X360 is better then the Wii and PS2 version,they just got crapped cuz they cant take much shit unlike PS3 and X360

  • I wish this guy reviewed the 360/PS3 version of the game, at least this guy gives a pretty fair review that represents the average, non-eccentric-Sonic-fan gamer's point of view. That other guy is just a negatively biased piece of trash.

  • I completely agree with this review. I have yet to complete this game because of the werehog levels... The combat system is sooo annoying.

  • the combat isnt so bad.....(with the gc controls) its the platforming that will you

  • The nighttime levels got to be boring after a while because it was just more and more battling. The day time levels really brought me back.

  • this review summed up the game perfectly but for me the werehog levels were so bad that i couldnt play anymore and i really enjoyed the day levels and they are much better than the PS3 version

  • the ps2 version had a little bit of lame graphics but the wii texture for sonic is just awesome for me

  • Is it me or is this guy in love (and I mean furry love) with Sonic? Just listen to the beginning of the video...

  • The night levels aren't too bad....

    Climb things, jump and get across too many things using your ''elastic'' arm remember dark prince from two thrones, and that is so nice.

    What is boring is that you need to fight, and explore...

    Day levels are sure great ones!

    I just love run like a maniac through beutiful stages, trying my best to get the S rank.

  • All day levels on this game = Epic Win. I don't really like the night lvls but I can stand them.

  • thisd is the perfect review for this game. i feel excatlyy the way matt feels. sonic levels are great, warehog blows as well with the hub worlds.

  • this review suits the =360 version too

  • i agree

  • Wow, this was a much better review than the Hillary´s one.

  • this guy should've done the review 4 360 version

  • Meh. Chuck Norris can give Sonic Unleashed a more better review and Roundhouse kick IGN's asses.

  • sega are trying new things! unlike fucking nintendo and how come when link turns into a wolf its like WOOOW its the best thing ever.....but when sonic dose it its like hell on earth fuck u IGN!

  • Thimg is though, the werehog sections are boring and feel ABSOLUTELY NOTHING LIKE the day levels.

  • yea but i think of the night time levels as like the subspace emissary on brawl and the puzzels is a nice change in the sonic games also becouse in the day time levels you just run run run but in the night time levels you got 2 slow down and look around and it never gets boring becouse of the combo system engine they put into the night levels also so i dont nnow what the hell you are saying!

  • Look, Subspace Emissary is optional. You have to do the horrible night levels the get to the day levels in unleashed.

  • well yea ture but hell not everyone can like the samethings

  • but the day time levels never get boring right? am i right?

  • I wouldn't know, there aren't enough of them.

  • If we did't HAVE to kill all the enemies to progress in the Werehog levels...it would be a much better game

    And why the hell do we need a hub-world????It would be much better if we could just beat a level and go to another right away...just like the first 2D sonic games...

  • Just because the werehog levels aren't Sonic, they aren't bad. Going around and beating the crap out of a bunch of bad guys is fun, as is normal Sonic levels.

  • Am I the only one who liked the Werehog and the story?

  • No,I also like the Werehog and the story.

  • yea me 2 the story is better then sonic 06 well i do like silver and mephiles the dark but the story aboyt dark giga and light giga(aka chip) is just kickass

  • no. i like this game

  • Yet almost everyone across the world see both as one big FAIL

  • yeah but they rate the 360/ps3 version 4.5 what the hell i have the ps2/ps3 versions but the ps3or360 is btter I'm saying the PS2/wii dosen't have USA gameplay or empire city and not a mazuri day/night gameplay only a boss

  • Features doesn't necessarily mean that the game is better. Frame rate problems, bad camera positions, unresponsive controls and worse Werehog levels got the ps3/360 version with a low score. Besides, when the reviewer makes a score, he needs the agreement of the other staff as well.
