Also, I bring you the next of the Sonic Game.
Well.. Since I'm blacklisted for merely posting an opinion before this thing was "officially" open, and getting a nasty little PM that was completely unwelcome, I guess I'll just post something meaningful and yet pointless at the same time.
N4G: News for Gamers
It's quite fitting that Sonic Unleashed sees Sonic turning into a werewolf, because it's pretty much a game of two halves. One half is, in our opinion, the best 3D Sonic game we've ever played. The other half however is a generic, repetitive action platformer.
Sonic's history in 3D gaming has had more ups and downs than the National Press-Up League, mainly due to two reasons: speed and glitches. If it wasn't bad enough that many 3D Sonic games are simply far too fast to be controllable (and therefore enjoyable), it's even worse when dodgy coding means you randomly miss the trigger for an important set-piece, often chucking you down a hole as a result or - even worse - glitching you through the scenery and making you die as you fall off the edge of the level. It's happened since Sonic's first three-dimensional adventure (Sonic Adventure on the Dreamcast), and has been an irritating bug in pretty much every one since. Except this one.
GoNintendo
Xbox 360
* GamePro (60/100): “I love Sonic because his speedy style of platforming is fun, and Sega should have just developed a game around that and left everything else out.”
* Game Informer
(60/100): “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.”
* 1UP (C): “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.”
Wii
* IGN (72/100): “Sonic Unleashed is half great game and half tedious gimmick.”
* GameDaily (70/100): “A sequel with more speed and less gimmicks would make us happy, but for now, Unleashed is a step above the awful games that came before it. Good to have you back, Sonic.”
* Game Informer (65/100): “The Wii version has less annoying traits than the others and still retains all the usual mediocrity. The motion-control elements in the Werehog levels add an extra dimension to the action, and the hub worlds are entirely text-based and aren’t nearly as annoying. If you can stand the diminished graphics, the Wii version actually edges out the PS3 and 360 entries.”
Could the Wii version of the game actually be a little bit better, or are reviewers willing to be a little less harsh on Wii titles? It’s a tough call…which is left up to the consumer to make.
And so far, people don't care about the game so much as wanting the Gold!
GO GAIANS!

Dr. Smiles' mule here.
So I see you blocked me.
You could have asked me for my reasoning, but no. That would be silly.
You took the mature route and blocked me like a p***y wimp f*****t. It just shows your maturity and desire for an actual discussion about the game instead of worshipping it like your mother's p***s. Have a lovely day.
Hey I asked for no hardcore criticisms and you do so :0 Go ahead and insult me, that won't affect me anyways.
I would ask you but again...why go hardcore? Why not say something like, "I didn't like the game for this reason:" and bam... there you go :0
So if people don't like the game, and think maybe others shouldn't get it due to certain reasons, they shouldn't post in here? What kind of crazy bias do you have going on in here?

I'm a decent way through it. Only 2 areas left.
Here's how I see it:
Sonic Adventure daytime stages with 10 times more speed, mixed in with a dumbed down version of God of War for the night time stages, mix in some Fatal Frame and you got Sonic Unleashed.
Don't get me wrong, I love the game, just seems Sonic Team really loved God of War and even went as fat as copying Kratos's rage meter into Sonic unleashed meter, and the fact you have to button mash on some doors to pry them open or even fill your meter by smashing pots is pushing it.
See Dr. Smiles? This is what I was looking for.
I understand you, Eunta. 3nodding Wait... Sonic Adventure is faster? It doesn't seem like it to me xP
Oh, now I get it. and apparently you need to learn sentence structure. Lemme fill in the words to make this a little more clear.
