Sonic The Hedgehog (PS3)

Product Information

Sonic Unleashedis almost a perfect metaphor for itself. Sonic has become part werehog (because why not) and will transform every night into the burly beast while remaining his sleek, seedy self during the day. That 50/50 split almost perfectly reflects how much of this game is good. Nearly all the daytime stages, which feature classic Sonic gameplay of rushing across beautiful vistas at some of the fastest speeds we’ve ever seen, are considered good if not great great by most fans. Just the scale of some stages make you feel like you’re actually racing across huge regions of the world. They may even be some of the best 3D Sonic levels of all time. But you can’t just play the day stages alone, and eventually the ugly werehog will rear its head. a b "Sonic Fishing" (in Japanese). Sonic Team. Archived from the original on March 10, 2012 .

There are plenty of people willing to debate which is better between Sonic 2 and the sequel we covered above. We find the extra characters in 3 make it just a bit better than Sonic 2, but there’s really not a major gap in quality between these two classic titles. As a sequel, this game is one of the best around. It took the formula that the original Sonic the Hedgehogessentially invented and almost immediately mastered it just a year later. This is the game where many of the series most iconic levels come from, like Chemical Plant Zone, and they’re memorable for a reason. Like in Sonic 3, they reward good play but are not overly punishing to mistakes. Plus, we have Sonic 2to thank for introducing the character of Tails and the totally not a Dragon Ball Z ripoff Super Sonic.Romano, Sal (November 1, 2023).
