And if there was one game I played more than any other, it was Sonic the Hedgehog. The minute I got my Genesis at a garage sale, my other systems started collecting dust.

But graphics is much better than used it's predecessor Sonic the Hedgehog 2006.If there's one console that I'm more emotionally attached to than any other, it's my SEGA Genesis. They added hub worlds where you can do side quests and talk to pointless NPCs, I never spent much time here since it seemed like a rather useless area. Why do I have to upgrade Sonic’s speed? Isn’t that the point of Sonic? He’s the fastest thing alive, but apparently, he needs to be upgraded. It’s a poor and needless RPG system, that will have you upgrading your werehog attacks and sonics speed. I’ve never met someone who thought Sonic needed an RPG system. For some reason, the developers thought adding an RPG system would be a good idea. There is a light at the end of this tunnel, but first, let’s get the worst part out of the way. These sections of the game will make you question if the rest of the game is even worth the pain. But it doesn’t stop there, the game has you spend roughly half the game as werehog Sonic where you must fumble around poorly designed platforming stages along with simple combat where you fight mundane enemies. Unfortunately, Sonic Unleashed continues this pattern.

You either are in the flow that the world has set up for you, or you’re stuck on the side trying to gain speed, only to be hit by one of the several chaotic obstacles that you often can’t see coming due to the camera pointing elsewhere. Arguably every 3D Sonic game has had an issue with its camera controls and overall gameplay.
