i have a theory on dark gia's look. He seemed to damage the world right? Me theory is, that he is a parasite, and he is supposed to look like some kind of bug.
hmm so I guess the PS2 version is the same as the Wii, as I've never seen this boss and I had to dodge lasers and swipes, personally, I like PS2 version better.
while the wii version of this fight was better, i much prefered the 360 version overall. the day stages were 10x better than the already good ones in the wii, and the night stages were no where near as tedious.
Well, if you think about it, the devil basically tempts everyone and can sort of see what's going on, so maybe that's the point of Dark Gaia having a lot of eyes is that he could see everyone?
Hey Tom, since you say your fingers are quick as lighting I got a question. If you've ever played the God of War 2 final boss, did you beat that last quick time event on your first go.
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I beat all 3 Time Trial missions for Eggmanland, where you can't die ONCE, and S-ranked both Eggmanland and Dark Gaia. How do ya like that, huh?!
When the darkness was going everywhere, I thought that Dark Gaia was separating itself to escape and Super Sonic would fly around the world super boosting fast to kill what was left.
Just to explain Dark Gaia's size change, the reason Dark Gaia disintegrated was because he was born early, and hadn't 'condensed', so he couldn't handle his own weight. So Eggman made a giant furnace for Dark Gaia to condense himself in so that he's a more manageable size, and there we go.
Still, you'd have to wonder how the basics of the fight would've carried out. Can't exactly just thwack his eyes out when the eyes are the size of small countries, can you?
probably the best way to put this final boss fight would be like this
Stage 1: Punch-out
S. 2: Running
S. 3: Shield (on rails to help the controls)
S. 4: Arms (without quick time)
Final Stage: Eyes (wii version)
that would be much better in my opnion cus by the end youd be more satisfied with yourself and giga didnt go down so easilly, you had to bring down his defences first
When you charge the arms, I would have prefered that to be set out like the Wii version Perfect Dark Gaia, such as dodging rocks whilst boosting into his hands whilst a sort of Chip 'struggle' bar goes down.
There's actually a video on Youtube which shows basically what the Dark Gaia fight would have been if the two versions merged together; first the rush towards Dark Gaia with Chip, then the Punch-Out bit, then the running, then taking out the shield, quick-time event hell, and finally the Wii's eye-battering. Epic as all hell, as you two said.
The book of Revelation mentions lots of creatures covered in eyes in the bible. These are like 6-winged, 3-headed, 100-eyed kind of angels that actually serve God in heaven.
one thing i don't get is why does super sonic have to dodge boulders? he's super sonic isn't he? so he should be able to burst through the boulders and not get hurt by them?
Hmm, well from having the Wii version [and having now watched this whole playthrough] I'd say that I prefer the Wii first part of the Dark Gaia battle, part two's the same in both so N/A, and prefer the 3Dness of the last part but like the more hands-on approach the Wii version had.
The Wii version looked to have been better off without the 3D hubs and Tails Tornado sections, but I hated the half-assed combat system we got...
Actually, Dark Gaia's size change is easily explainable.
Dark Gaia's form hadn't compressed into a completely solid form in the beginning, hence why you can see through it, and why it easily collapsed in on itself.
And thanks to waking up too early, he wasn't fully formed, thus his structure wasn't stable, and ergo, Dark Gaia fell like building blocks trying to support a lead weight.
Geez, I think it's safe to say that Sonic Unleashed is the most graphic game in the series so far, if only because of Dark Gaia. Great playthorugh, guys!:)
Why does Perfect Dark Gaia look like a venus fly trap!? Come on be more EPIC! All hail Tom and Garret for coming up with such insanely funny as all hell humor! I agree with Garret about the graphic that was put in there, Damb man, if that blood was red, it could possibly make it to adult let alone Mature. Holy shit The Helldragon will eat good tonight. :) lol :P He wouldn't even touch it, on account of all that Fucking BLOOD! O_O
Ahh, sorry about that Gareth, I while I was writing I seem to have forgotten what was your name, and for some reason I thought it was Garett. lol my ears played a trick on me. Oh and thanks for correcting FindTheComputeRoom. lol :)
This is a great playthrough. You guys did a great job, and it's great to see you finish it off. Hopefully there won't be as many delays, but what can you do.
I always thought when I watched Dark Gaia's transformation, it seems like something out of Resident Evil or some graphical game, not Sonic. I'm like "This is a kid's game?!"
