![]() The daytime stages are the type of stage everyone hypes up. Let me give you an overview of each stage type. Depending on the continent, you will either fight the boss during daytime or nighttime. This tablet has a star on it and will lead you to the boss stage of the continent. I guess pushing two slabs of rock together isn’t one of Sonic’s strong suits. But apparently you need to find some random person in town to put it together. Once you beat the required missions of both types of stages, you will have both of them. ![]() By beating the required missions of the daytime stages and the nighttime stages, you get a half of a tablet. It never says it directly in-game but it’s pretty obvious that the Sun Tablet opens up a door in the temple to do the daytime stages and the Moon Tablet opens up a door in the temple to do the nighttime stages. Each continent has a Sun Tablet and a Moon Tablet. ![]() The game is based around 7 temples, located on 7 different continents (obviously not related to the fact that there are 7 Chaos Emeralds…which you have to restore power to in the temples). By the end of the game, I used a guide to figure out which of the people gave me things/furthered the plot and talked to them and ignored everyone else. Of course, 4/5 of the locations in town are generally useless, and a lot of times you have to talk to everyone, then talk to the last person you haven’t talked to, who will open up a new conversation with someone you’ve already talked to. You have a point-and-click town interface in which you click on different parts of town to talk to people. If you thought it was annoying in Sonic ’06 when you had to wander around town talking to people, the Wii version of Unleashed has turned that dull task into something even more pointless. Of course, he has lost his memory, including the knowledge of his name, so he’s named Chip after his tastes in food. He is supposed to be a…chipmunk? Squirrel? Mini-bear/muskrat hybrid? I really have no clue. Once you’re done wondering why Sonic is an ugly-as-all-hell beast falling from the sky, you’re introduced to the typical, apparently necessary, “I’M GOING TO FOLLOW YOU AROUND AND BUG THE CRAP OUT OF YOU” character of this Sonic game Chip. The most baffling part about this is that Sonic’s shoes apparently grow spikes, despite not being part of his body. In the process he becomes a Werehog, but apparently only remains that way at night. To sum up the cut-scene, Sonic is about to destroy Eggman’s latest plan as Super Sonic when he falls into a trap, and the power of the Chaos Emeralds is used to break open the Earth and unleash Dark Gaia, the game’s main nemesis (since Robotnik/Eggman apparently isn’t enough anymore). As a result, I didn’t see the intro video until I started it up at a later date. Of course, this baffled me because I skipped through it assuming I wasn’t skipping a 5 minute-long video that you need to flow nicely into the next cut-scene. ![]() Apparently, the opening cut-scene is the intro video, before the title screen. I gladly took the opportunity, and eventually managed to finish the game. I was going to rent it, but one day when I was talking to my friend who owned the game, he offered to let me borrow it. I was still skeptical, so I wasn’t prepared to buy the game. There was lots of chatter about how, for once, the Wii version was actually the best version. Having been burned by games like Shadow the Hedgehog and Sonic and the Secret Rings, I was quick to be cynical and noted that it certainly looked like a return, but we should wait before passing judgment because Sonic doesn’t have a great track record, and they could still screw something up.Įven after the game came out many claimed it was a really good in the thread, here on SmashBoards. Everyone on the video save for a few was talking about how it was certainly a return to Sonic’s old days – with 2D gameplay and speed. It was on YouTube, an official trailer for a new Sonic game. I recall seeing the very first trailer for this game. Link to original post: Sonic Unleashed: Wii Version Review
