n~yoron Damn, that was one of the best endings ever, and then the twist that it's not over and Eggman has secretly won!

In a parallel universe, this opening is the ending of Chronicles and the two flow into one another.

How does Sonic's new friend not remember who he is but know all these abilities his partner has?

It's best to always handwave something like this with "It's a video game." and move on.

I'm so behind (I'm at Secret Rings before the Expert Shadow break). Hopefully I'll get caught up in time to be current with Unleashed :mgmnds:

Only played the HD version, so this'll be interesting to see. Pretty sure they went with more of a bite-sized stages deal on the SD game though. We'll see how that all pans out. But yeah, that was definitely the same first string of cutscenes. The tutorial stuff however was different.

FUN SONIC FACTS!

Before Sonic Team could begin development of Unleashed, they would need a far better engine than the motley collection that had powered all previous entries. Yoshihisa Hashimoto, who had been hired on as an enemy programmer for Sonic Adventure straight out of college, was assigned as the director for the next big Sonic game to succeed 06. He had worked on the past several Sonic games, and after analyzing past mistakes, worked out that a new and far more capable engine was needed to boost the series forward. His team began working on the Hedgehog Engine in 2005, and spent the next three years in development, in tandem with Unleashed's development.

Sega planned on licensing the engine, and internally used it extensively over the next few years (though unfortunately other companies didn't bite).

I was wondering why Chip gave me Spyro character vibes, and i'm now thinking that it's in his voice acting? He's got sort of that patronising Hunter tone to his voice. Might also be his appearance, a little.

It is really nice how the game shows you what time you're going for if you're going for ranks. I would've liked that in SA2.

I used to call Chip Peppy, since like... Chip isn't his real name. And he kinda just fills that role, you know?

Can't help but feel sorry for this person being completely out of their depth, especially seeing that index suggesting they're starting with the Genesis Sonic 1 as the "first" Sonic game.

So real quickly, we're supposed to be speeding through these levels for medals for higher ranks, right? Completely different from the HD side of things where it's more exploration-based stuff.

The orchestral music in the intro combined with the display of medals made me wonder if Sonic was back in the Olympics again so soon! I feel a lot of the music is a little too epic for its own good, like there's something that feels non-Sonic about it. But you know what, it is 2008, so i guess it's right around time for a Sonic analogue to Mario Galaxy.

And wow, i had no idea the werehog's stretchiness was actually explained in-world. I figured it was just a gameplay contrivance to make were-Sonic's attacks look more dynamic like Mario's giant hands/feet in SM64. (The Unleashed demo that i played back in the day was a daytime stage only.)

Hearing the Sonic Unleashed battle theme always makes me think of Pink yelling "NOT THE BATTLE MUSIC!" in one of the Worms videos. XD

So Devil May Cry when

I would say check the scrolling text whenever you return to the area hub. It actually mentioned Tails by name there.

Because this wasn't mentioned in the YouTube comments, here is an image of the Wii Classic Controller:

Notice the face buttons? That's why they're lower-case in the game: Because it's following the Classic Controller, which you have it set to.

Nice to see that the bees are still as annoying to hit in the SD version as they are in the HD one. Props to Dimps for giving players the accurate experience.

Out of curiosity I checked what they do consider to be All the Sonics. This only includes games up to Sonic Pocket Adventure, as this is the most recent game they've done.

List of games they did play and raocow didn't:
  • Wacky Worlds Creativity Studio
List of games raocow did play and they didn't (albeit, it seems worth noting that they don't seem to follow strictly chronological ordering, so maybe they will return to some of that in the future):
  • Flicky
  • Rad Mobile
  • Sonic the Hedgehog (LCD)
  • Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (LCD)
  • Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine (8-bit)
  • Sonic the Hedgehog 3 (LCD)
  • Sonic 3D Blast (Sega Saturn)
  • Sonic Mountain Quest
  • Sonic the Screen Saver
  • Sonic & Knuckles Collection
  • Sonic Jam (Game.com)
Unreleased games (they didn't play any of those, but they are unreleased so figured I would have a separate list for those):
  • SegaSonic Bros.
  • Sonic's EDUSOFT
  • Sonic Crackers
  • Sonic X-TREME
Honestly, the biggest omission so far appears to be Sonic Jam for Game.com - the rest is mostly games that barely meet raocow's thesis requirements or games that cannot be emulated.
