5) Sonic Unleashed
I like Sonic Unleashed. A lot. Fight me. The game features some of the best level designs in the day stages that the series has ever seen. Far superior to Sonic Colors and Generations because they don’t rely on stupid gimmicks. Just raw speed and precision.
That’s not what people dislike about this game though. That would be the Werehog segments. These lengthy, slower paced segments are often what people remember from the game and immediately dislike because “it’s not Sonic”. Nope it’s not. But it isn’t bad. It’s actually fairly good and complex. As a fan of character action games, Sonic Unleashed’s Werehog segments are actually pretty fun and interesting. There’s combos, a decent leveling system, and solid platforming. It really doesn’t deserve any of the hate it gets, other than maybe the levels can go on a bit too long.
Sonic Unleashed is a good game. I like it. And the Tokyo Philharmonic played some of the music in it. That’s pretty high-class for a Sonic game.
