  • I liked Adem's reviews, but not this one.

  • F**k you Adam

  • in the 360 version you can skip the Movies by pressing start alot

  • I fucking hate sonic fanboys.

  • Does this guy see how many more dislikes than likes there is? I mean you must know your opinion is probrobly centered more towords the 30 year old cod players idea of a good game but I got this on the Wii and I thought it was great!

  • Everybody jsut stop fighting over the HD or non-HD versions...I own both and love them equally!

  • pause at 0:33. now we know why the ps3 and xbox360 version sucked. because sonic was doing drugs to help him get through it. XD

  • Uh... yeah, you guys suck at Sonic and try to find the smallest issues and turn it into big ones. And the werehog is not bad at all. I mean it might for PS3 and 360 but PS2 is pretty good just not good graphics.

  • I loved that game if you ask me. Day Time was fast paced and achieving while nighttime gave you a sonic adventure feel.

  • i have theplaystation 2 version, and i love it. they most have played the 360 version. i love the werehog levels. i get to beat down on a sonic game, that's cool. i have to disagree only cause i love games that take a different look at the games they are made for. is it so wrong to love something different?

  • xplay is just a bunchmof assholes there reviews are so shitty but then let the new halo game come out and they dont even have to play it and it automatically gets a gold star( i really dont hav any thing against halo only that there are so many of them.....other franchises do this too).

  • I was so disappointed by this game. Fun day time stages, but awful werehog sections with bad combat and poor platforming, bad hub world that's poor platforming, and retard medal system.

  • X-play= Anti Sonic hater group. Sonic Unleashed 2/5 & Colors review 3/5

    IGN= Hilary Goldstein should never review a Sonic game again.

  • @HyperSonicXtreme and tails #1 most annoying character

  • @purplegill10

    Yet Tails is ranked number 1 for best sidekick at Gametrailers.

  • Go to hell

  • Man, does Sessler always have to be such a pretentious douche bag? I have this game for my Wii and I think it's great. No control problems, or camera issues. Fewer checkpoints and having to time jumps properly only adds to the experience as it increases the overall challenge and makes completing each level all the more gratifying. The Werehog isn't supposed to be like Sonic. He's big and bulky, and it wouldn't make sense for him to move in the same way. My score: 8/10. Suck it, Sessler!

  • @JaysPlace20 Those were PS3 and 360 gameplay shots, stuff works differently on Wii. Even then, challenge and frustration is a thin line that this game attempts to balance on.

  • @S0LiDsnAke36 I know this is from the PS3/360 version. I can tell just from the design of the environments. Plus the Wii version uses a point and click map for its hub worlds, where as this shows full renderings. Regardless of the version, there's always gonna be some frustration. I also read that the Wii controls better, and even with the lack of HD the graphics still look great. Overall, the Wii version was the best received. The only downside is some levels got cut due to less storage space

  • @S0LiDsnAke36 You are right. My friend has the game for the Wii, but there is a version better. THE F****** PS2 VERSION! The only reasons the game sucked is because they played it on th ps3 and xbox360 for better graphics or somthin. the ps2 version was much better, and is hands-down the best version. Unfortunately, at the time, the ps3 has recently come out, so everyone bought that version instead. the ps2 is a good console, with better versions of games, but was unfortunately, forgotten. : (

  • @JaysPlace20 Hey, don't be hating on the Sessler! It's only one review, and Adam is still cool! A lot of people who play Sonic just see the worst in it, because it's what they expect from it (but now it's starting to get better).

  • @MilesTailsProwerfan9 It's not so much the review (although I did disagree with a lot of his complaints). It's more his general attitude which I find to be rather obnoxious at times

  • @JaysPlace20 Yeah, that's understandable...

    I'm just used to that kind of stuff after dealing with it for years (i.e. my brother). :D

  • This game takes a good concept but throws in stupid shit

    Like the Star Wars re-releases

  • sonic unleashed is good but the night stages are shit but all the day stages pound shit on a monkeys chest

  • @SonicCircuit Cool little fact, some fans actually dub the Werehog as Nightmare Sonic since he originally was never mean to be called that and to share with the fact that the werehog actually shares some moves with the enemies called nightmares in the game such as the missile punch. But yeah these guys NEED to get cancelled. my reasons are (1) they are racist especially against blacks and asains, (2) they rate good games badly and FPS always get good reviews with them (3) they're UNGODLY unfunny

  • @SonicXAmy121Gamer You are talking about xplay, right? That the need to be cancelled? I agree. I remember when the show used to be "Extended Play" with only Adam on the show. They used to be serious back then. xplay turned everything into a joke and they started reviewing things really badly. Gaming media has really lost it's soul and ignores the great things in good games (as in the Sonic games from Heroes to Black Knight).

  • @vgman94 yeah I was... did you think I was talking about Sonic?

  • @SonicXAmy121Gamer No, I wasn't sure what you were talking about because I couldn't find the comment you were replying to. Now I realize you made an off-topic statement to him that was only slightly related to what he was saying. But I'm glad you brought up the topic anyway. X-Play has really become disappointing, no?

  • this game rocks don't listen to this guy but this is better then the IGN review

  • They always hate on the good games.

  • @SonicCircuit your point?

  • 3 out of 5 wouldnt be too bad

  • this game is awesome and maybe i like werehog... but im gonna call him gaia hog... it sounds kewler... yeh...

  • kick butt! 

  • wow fuck adam... fag.... 2 out of 5?? the wherehog levels grow on you... awesome presentation... this game isnt perfect but dam a 2??? adam fuck you

  • wow fuck adam... fag.... 2 out of 5??

  • If I wanted to play an action game focused on combos, I'd play God of War, or something good. Jeez. This game blows.

  • Damn you suck if you died on the first stage XD

  • Have the Sonic Writing/Development Team just been snorting cocaine for years on end?

  • ok u may think me and my bro r sonic geeks, but this is the WORST REVIEW EVER. sure the werehog is slow, but who cares? I know, its a opinon, but still this game is epic. and xplay, u wouldnt no epic if it hit ya in the face

  • @themadcro Totally agree with u at least the werehog stages u fight tell me wat big the cat does....he's equally slow or slower and he fishes yeahhhh(sarcasm)

  • SCREW YOU XPLAY!

  • Well I think the game is pretty good along with an awesome, catchy soundtrack and the werehog section gives the action part of the running video game of the sonic series the look of Street Fighter.

  • Unleashed is what Sonic 06 should have been minus the werehog levels

  • @pikmin8745 better

  • @pikmin8745 No he isn't, okay allow me to explain. Firstly the werehog is not a seperate character, it is just another form of sonic, like super sonic, just a different form not a seperate character. So if you said the werehog is sonic's worst form, fine I can understand that, but saying its the worst character is basically saying sonic is the worst character in the sonic the hedgehog series.

  • So... if Sonic's a lover and not a fighter, how does that explain Sonic fighting enemies that get in his way and Eggman?

  • Damn. Sonic fanboys are really naive and arrogant,

  • @AwsomeDudeReviews got that right, they even try to ruin sonic 4

  • I skipped the cutscenes by pressing start and select.

  • YOU KNOW THE WEREHOG IS KINDA COOL BECAUSE YOU CAN GET THE SH*T OUT OF THE BAD GUYS...xD

  • @iluvshadow342 no it sucks balls it has bad combos and looks like a retarted cat

  • @transcollege For meh...lol

  • HE IS JUST FRUSTERATED BECUASE HE DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO PLAY THIS GAME SUCKER! I PAST THE WHOLE GAME WITHOUT EVEN GETING FRUSTERATED... :P

  • this review? bullshit

  • lol, werehog. AKA ( in proper terms) Man-hog. How about calling it the Hog-wolf, or wolf-hog? Then again, that won't make me forgive them for getting me to buy this game. (not x-play btw, SEGA, for giving me hope of Sonic getting back on his feet)

  • After Sonic Heroes review from Gay-Play, I stopped listening to them. This proves it. The Werehog is a mess? They were going for a damn combat game. It WAS meant to be, or would you just want Sonic running with nothing new for 20 hours? It's ridiculous. X-Play has been gay ever since Heroes came out, and not just about the Sonic series. Other games like Crash and Spyro have gotten the middle finger from Gay-Play. Well, now I give the finger to you. Fuck you X-Play. You have no taste in games.

  • @vgman94 I know right. All they want is blood killing shooting and pointless violence. If it's not a game where you get a bullet stuck in your ass to them it's not a game at all.

  • @sonicunlimided42 True. Or for franchises to "stick with to their roots" which is why Ratchet & Clank and Mario have gotten high scores while older 90s franchises like Crash Spyro and Sonic get hated for changing. :/ Reviewers these days... Ugh. And most of the blood 'N guts games are crappy, too. The only great games I find that have gore are Prototype and God of War. And the gore is not what makes them great, but the gameplay, the story, powers, setting, etc.

  • @vgman94 And another thing. Why are there revewiers in the first place. Games were made to entertain and have fun. Not to be hated on by a bunch of crackheads who can't let go of there childhood.

  • @sonicunlimided42 Hahaha! True. Reviewers think their games are facts and sadly, a lot of people trust them because they think they're "professional." You can tell by reviews like this and Gameinformer's reviews of Crash Bandicoot and Spyro that they can't let go of their childhood and hate it for being different. If it's fun, it's fun. Doesn't matter if it doesn't follow the tradition of an icon. Reviewers are crack addicts these days. And unfortunately, so are a lot of gamers...

  • @vgman94 childhood? You don't take something great and take a big dump on it things should stay. Banjo-kazooie is now a build game, dante looks like a anorexic twilight guy, and sonic werehog was an awful idea it sucked I would grab a wolf head and beat the creators with it . if its not broke DONT FIX IT!!!

  • @transcollege Fuck you and your "don't fix it" bullshit. It's a disgusting ideology that only serves to feed nostalgic idiots like yourself. The Werehog was a great idea that added combat and platforming to the series' main speed based gameplay. He could fight and hardly looked stupid. YOU look stupid, especially with this idiotic "retarted cat" and other moronic jokes you use to express your mindless and thoughtlessly formed opinion.

  • lets get this straight if youve ever played a sonic game he was always up for a challenge or a fight he never stepped down unless somebodys life was in danger

    but thats granted in a sonic game the platforms were nice in fact they were great but i think x play has it all wrong the where hog added a twist considering it would have been another regular sonic game in fact it was a blessing it had similar story lines as others but all games have that the thing i hate is the name perfect dark gaia

  • lol ign made a better review, this one sucked lol

  • Wait he got frusterat5ed over a jump on THE FIRST FUKEN LEVEL!?!?! god that guy sucks at this game

  • Sessler is a crappy reviewer and kind of obnoxious. I haven't played this game myself, but some of the stuff he said just seems lazy, like he put no thought into it. Those deaths were just him sucking. The werehog levels probably give the impression of taking up the majority of the game because they're brawl type and move slower. Not the fact that he's pretty much the opposite of who Sonic normally is. Like Jekyll and Hyde. The day stages look amazing. This review deserves a 2 out of 5, if that

  • @JaysPlace20 thats what it got, a 2 out of 5

  • @nuzamaki90 I meant the review itself. Not the game

  • He was way too harsh on this game. The only bad aspects of the game are the werehog & HUB stages (the latter of which are brief, anyway).

    I would give it 3/5.

  • I can state this over and over but I don't know who will listen. Werehog levels were built great and the moved slowly because they are brawling levels. The only real problem was the werehog it's self. Now we can put knuckles into the fighting part and we fixed the real problem. Speed levels are gold and unlike Sellout play says worked well with out me seeing those problems they talked about.

  • @gmcall1992 the werehog sucked he couldn't fight, looked stupid and was an awful idea

  • You only die when you suck

  • The game was pretty bad, I'll admit, but at least 3 out of 5

  • Xplay reviews of Sonic have always dissapointed me....seeing as Unleashed was a really good game in my opinion, I thought it would get a good review as well.......clearly I was wrong. No offense to the fans of G4, but either Adam is taking this game too seriously, of he just sucks at Sonic games (seriously, watch the game footage when a mistake is made), this game deserved at least a three, out of five.

  • @SorasGirlfriend I agree! :D

  • FUCK YOU

  • The Wii version is kinda better because THE DAY LEVELS ARE FUCKING FUN

  • MAN!!! This game needs at least 3stars it's not that bad!!!

  • this is quite biased :(

  • ign should sue. this is the most unoriginal review ever.

  • gee, i wonder if they say all the sonic levels are good, all the werehog levels are bad and the hubs are boring? wait... the sonic levels don't work, or you can't play it worth a damn? FAIL!

  • @Bioniclestudios it doesn't matter if the game player is horrible (which he's not) this game is rated E or E10 which means it should be accessable to all players.

  • @normalECD but it's easy even for kids.

  • These games fly under my radar because I foud there were better games out there like halo and cod and so fourth

  • u suck its was the best game ever

  • the worst character is the werehog, adam have you ever seen big the cat?

  • @Supermegaman737 Or amy rose

  • it deserves a 1

  • Though I like the werehog stages, I think it would've been somewhat better if they kept the speed for it as well, think about a on-rail shooter like werehog stages without the shooting.....That sounds pretty cool. If I have to rate it IMO, Sonic Unleashed gets a three out of five....IGN, 8.5

  • nerd

  • it deserves at least a 3.

  • x play always gives the sonic games bad reviews mostly because their not fans of the games

  • @BoltTheSuperDog18 they are fans of the good games in the series, as in side scrollers

  • MY REVIEW:

    Sonic Unleashed was a good game with nicely done challenges and scenery. There were many collectibles to get but they're not required. The Warehog puzzles from the temples were the only good parts as a warehog. This game took me 1 day to beat. & I'm not saying I stood up all night & day to beat it. I actually did some things and returned to playing it. I was dissapointed. It was good, but it could've been better.

    My score: 3/5

  • I would have at least given it three.

  • Okay, well I find it interesting that X-Play always bashes the hell out of EVERY Sonic game. Maybe it's just me, but I think they're not even giving him the slightest CHANCE! I mean, they're rating the game on a horrible gamer's gameplay! I never once had any of those problems when I was playing, and most likely, they're reviewers were making E-ranks the whole game! I mean, come on! It's the greatest Sonic game in a LONG time! I truly am disappointed with you X-Play. TWO stars?!

  • @bioniclestudios It would be a great game if they didn't add the HORRIBLE werehog sections and the damn game didn't make you go Medal collecting. I'm looking forward to Sonic Colors because it looks like Unleashed without the absolutely horrible crap they decided to put in like the werehog and medal collecting

  • IGN has the best reviews!

    GameTrailers has the worst.

    But X-Play has good ones too!

  • I know that Sonic sucks now but really will changing back into its original platforming state help. Sure the fans will buy it but newcomers not really, especially with the shit thats unleashed now adays

  • sonic has just got bad over the years, sonic 4 is gonna be great though back to the way it was in the original :)

  • but it was a good start to getting back the sonic franchise. i mean compare this game to sonic 06? i think in time sonic is gonna start getting really good again. if they make sonic unleashed 2 (which i think they are) maybe for once they will listen to consumers and put more running and less wearhog

  • @CapitanKurosaki

    They're not doing that shit anymore.

  • it should really be a 3 out of 5

  • i expext 3

  • 2 out of 5? I was at least expecting these guys to give a 3 out of 5... gh

  • It my opinion, it deserves. I owned the Wii version for a while, and though it is better than the 360 and PS3 versions (in that there's no flying stages, and the running stages were better made), the stage designs and layouts for the Werehog levels were just plain sloppy. I sold it for a store credit towards Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, and while I may miss those running levels (especially the one in Holaska), I haven't regretted my decision at all (especially since TvC kicks all ass).

  • Wait, so you're Adam Sessler? gh

  • No, far from it. In fact, I don't like Sessler that much, myself, especially since I thought his review of Muramasa: The Demon Blade was full of shit.

    However, I do have to agree with him on this review. I've played Sonic Unleashed, myself, and while the running stages were a blast, the Werehog stages, while they started off pretty decent at first, just became a serious nightmare. And unlike Sessler, I wanted the Werehog idea to work. Just too bad it became one big mess.

  • well liek bro i dont see why you would even reply to my comment.

    g h gh

  • I guess I did, because I figured a 3 would be just a little too kind to it.

  • Back off, man, a 3/5 was suitable. Because XPlay seems like n00bs. gh

  • And that, they are, but a 2 would also be what I'd give the game. Had there been a nearly equal number of running stages compared to Werehog stages, it'd be more worthy of being recognized as a good game by me (even moreso if the Werehog stages were fun and actually designed well).

    In the end, you're entitled to your own opinion, but doesn't mean I can't debate it. So, that said, let's just agree to disagree.

  • Join my site? gh

  • you can skip the cut seans it just takes long to skip them

  • I don't like X-play's review of this game, but at least they gave it a 2 instead of a 1, showing some sense that it's better than Sonic 06. Just look at Gamespot and IGN's reviews. Now those were much more harsh and gave it worse ratings.

    But honestly, I thought more thought and effort was made in Sonic Unleashed than in Sonic 06. It's not perfect, but you can tell by how awesome the game looks, no glitches, and faster load times.

  • I think this game is good the day missions were really fun and the night time missions were pretty slow and it was basically a button masher which the sonic franchise isn't...at all. So from aside from the werehog levels the game was pretty awesome. Now that they have the running down hopefully the next sonic game will be pretty good maybe even add in a little bit of Scourge?

  • I hate X-Play. The werehog is awesome. And the Sonic day stages are some of the best times I've had playing video games period. Sure the game's not perfect, but X-Play needs to pull the stick out of their ass that makes them so damn hard on EVERYTHING!

  • as "awesome" as the werehog levels are, it was a very stupid idea to make the werehog sections take up the majority of the game. they feel nothing like a sonic game. in fact, they feel like the complete opposite.

    i guess the werehog himself is alright, but he shouldn't be in the majority of the game

  • @nerftendo005 the werehog levels SUCK!

  • @theaweshnap They aren't bad, just average.

  • @nerftendo005 U right on that part. But to tell u the truth, I enjoyed putting hands on my adversaries. Especially the donkey kong haymakers, bicycle kicks, and the spinning topside lariat-- that shit was fun! I loved throwing dem' hands!

  • damn T^T 2 rings out of five. oh well let's see how needlmouse does...........

  • *teams up with Werehog*

    Shall we kill x-pay?

    Sonic: I'm ready.

  • the game is terrible it takes too much time between the fun levels (the ones when you are not the werehog)...someone should get fire for the werehog

  • or even worse really.

  • @xXijerk0xX it seems they just suck at the game and complain about it, it's a great game (i think) and deserves at least a 3. lol these guys just love beeing ignorant

  • @Jkn127 dude they games for a living, this game just sucked

  • @xXijerk0xX the difference is ign dont have their own scripts xplay writes their own i like them but sometimes they suck but imsure ign is much worse

  • you can skip cutscense dumbass
