Sonic Unleashed Leaked Video

I never 'got' the Sonic games. It's like a pinball game in one direction. It's too fast for my taste. I want to explore everything in the environment, and if you do that, it's not fun anymore.

I don't understand how this looks any different from other 3d Sonic games?

My thoughts exactly, and Ive played all of them. I actually thought Sonic's stages on Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 were always pretty fun, that was pretty groundbreaking stuff back in 1999. But then they made you play as big the cat and all fun was lost...

But its really gone downhill since then, and while its hard to tell from this video, it seems like more of the same to me...

Because it's a pseudo 2D side scroller with occasional jumps back into the 3D plane.

Point being is, Sega is bringing back the ingredient necessary for a truly fun Sonic game. Which is speed within a 2D side scrolling world.

Just because they have the technology and power to make a 3D world for Sonic doesn't mean they should.

That lesson comes to them a few games too late though.

It likes making a 3D tetris or Pacman. And I think they did do a 3D Pacman and I'm sure it flopped.

Oh and yeah, welcome.

Wow, another 3D Sonic game. And I'm sure this is a "leaked" video.

Look. Sonic 1 and Sonic 2 for the dreamcast promised us some 3D-side scrolling awesomeness, and we got it, like every 4 levels. The 3D sonic games all suck ass. Until Sega says that this new Sonic game is only going to be side-scrolling levels than I'm not impressed.

Sonic hasn't been good since his 2D days. How many crappy 3D Sonic games will Sega have to make before they realize that people just want to play as Sonic (or Knuckles...) in a 3D side-scrolling environment.
