Sonic Unleashed Trailer Offers Glimpse of Werehog

by Nick Breckon, Jul 18, 2008 2:30pm PDT

Related Topics – Sonic Unleashed, xbox 360, Trailer, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 2, Nintendo Wii

When day turns to night in Sonic Unleashed, Sonic naturally becomes unhinged, a werewolf curse devised by Eggman transforming him into a stretchy-armed beast. The game then switches to an Incredible Hulk-style brawler, with jazzy nighttime background tunes.

While the attacks are standard combo affairs, Sonic the Werehog's stretchy arms give him the ability to grasp far-away ledges. As a result, the levels will often be vertically oriented.

Sonic Unleashed is set for release later this year on Xbox, 360, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 2, and Wii.

Man this looks good. I really really wish there were more oldschool 2-D style side scrolling games with next-gen graphics. Would love for a Mario game in the same way

I find what they're doing to be really addictive. If a person looks at the gameplay vids closely (during the 4 panel segment) you can see there's lots of choice and control for the player in this game. It looks to me like they're balancing the speed portions and control portions just right.

And the bratty, bubble gum, speedy music is pure post-crazy taxi sega. Same flavor and feel. Anyway I like what I'm seeing and I'll probably get it.

I'll give it a shot when it comes out, probably a rental first or play the demo if one's available. Unfortunately, I can't see plopping down $60 for a new Sonic, that I want to be great, but most likely will be another disappointment.

I hope for a great new Sonic game someday, not sure if this is it. Also, give me a new Nights game please, it's been since the what....95 or so, Sega Saturn is what I originally owned it for, with the special controller.

That was an awesome game, so many great games in the 90's.

I really don't get the hate on this game. It looks like a Sonic Adventure title, but with much more of an old-school influence. I'm definitely gonna be Gameflying this one when it comes out.

This game looks good, can't hate on the devs for doing something adding a little twist to the game at times...

if you want something to rag on, there's something about 50 cent in iraq below this one that begs for it.
