You're missing a lot. But there are people who explain that better than I could. I should show you a particularly good review of the games problems sometime. |

I've heard people say that the GameCube version of the game is more playable than the others. I wouldn't know. I haven't played either the PS2, Xbox, or PC ports. |

Hey. We've got a set of screenshots of the Wii port of Unleashed. Some you may have seen before, but others are brand-spankin' new. http://www.tssznews.com/2008/09/06/new-son...ii-screenshots/ |

Hmm. Not bad at all. Surprising, considering the Wii's lack of graphical power. |

I agree. At the beggining, I thought the Wii port would be gimped. And, though it may still be, the graphics are starting to look better, somehow, than they did before. Not to mention, I thought a different development team creating the Wii version would bite, but I can see they're starting to pull their belt up. |

If the graphics in the past looked a bit shoddy, then it's because they were taken from magazines. There's nothing wrong with the Wii port's graphics.
It's Dimps. The same people who made the successful Sonic Advance and Sonic Rush series. |

I wasn't big on Sonic Rush. I've never been one for the portable Sonic games, really. |

Right then. I guess you won't be ordering Chronicles then? You know Sonic Unleashed seems to be very, very inconsistent? Different versions for the Wii and PS2, a different name for the Japanese (Sonic World Adventure), and... now we've got a different name for all of the French versions of the game. French site Planete Sonic has reported that all French versions of the game will have a subtitle added to it, titled "Sonic Unleashed: La Malédiction du Hérisson". Translated, the latter part means "The Curse of the Hedgehog". Don't believe me? http://www.tssznews.com/wp-content/uploads...rench-cover.jpg |

Sonic World Adventure sounds very Engrish to me. Sonic Chronicles is probably the first portable Sonic since the two classics on the Game Gear that I'm actually looking forward to. Really, the Advance games got both better and worse with different things as they went along. I think Dimps was still trying to find a groove, even at the end. To their credit, the only outright bad of the Advance series was Advance 2. |

Tell me about it. A lot of people liked Advance 2 a lot, but to be honest, it's one of the few Sonic games that I really detest. Why? Because it's too f#cking hard, and too f#cking punishing. |

Ha. Remember the hand of death? Hoo boy, never seen something so unforgiving; it had a one hit kill, which is a Sonic series no-no. Not to mention Advance 2 has the worst level design the Sonic series had seen in a long, long time. The other two Sonic Advances were decent, but again, I still think that with those games, Dimps was trying to find a groove. Admittedly, they weren't doing bad with finding what worked, but hadn't quite reached a really, really good formula yet. If they had just gotten rid of the "hold right to win" level design, they might have done better. |

Oh, God, no... not the hand of death. Don't remind me of the hand of death. I mean, could Dimps be any more cheap?! It's bad enough that they make the overall game as hard as hell! Somebody must've got it into their heads that it isn't impossibly hard enough, so they put something in there that would ensure a one-hit kill, no matter how many Rings you f#cking have!! I swear to God, the developers must've been giggling like mad after putting that in. |

GameSpot Australia have conducted an interview with Sonic Unleashed's director, Yoshihisa Hashimoto, that tells us what to expect from the game. There's some stuff in this interview that kind of contradicts some previous reported details of the game. Also, we finally have the name of the giant monster Eggman wakes up after splitting the world into pieces. Dark Gaia!

When is the release date for this game? Also, if you know it, the release date for Dark Brotherhood. |
