Learn more about Sonic Unleashed. (Flash demo) SynopsisSonic the Hedgehog is heading out on an adventure like never before. Powered by an all-new engine, Sonic Unleashed combines classic Sonic thrills with the latest in next-generation technologies. Dr. Eggman has unleashed a slumbering beast from the center of the world, causing a seismic tremor that splinters the world into seven continents. Even more shockingly, this event causes a hair-raising change in Sonic himself, altering him with phenomenal new powers and abilities that come out when the sun sets. Help Sonic race to save the world — and himself — as he deals with his amazing transformations. Highly detailed 3D environments combine with furious 2D action in Sonic Unleashed. The compelling story finds Sonic maintaining his high-speed skills throughout the day, but at night he becomes a mysterious, dark form with never-before-seen powers. From 3D-action brawling to amazing agility, the heroic hedgehog will have a host of new tricks in his arsenal. Explore up to nine areas that resemble such real-life locations as the Great Wall of China, Arctic Pole glaciers and much more. Next-gen capabilities, including global illumination, grid computing, continuous data streaming and an intricate path finding system, treat you to Sonic gameplay that will excite you every step of the way.

What's great about it: graphics 720p and fluidness of sonic
What's not so great: nothing
I bought this game after playing the demo at Best buy. my son loved this game. and really what a difference the graphics make on the PS3 edition of this game. My son played it so much and enjoyed sonic for the first time he wanted this game. Of course had to pick it up! the challenge is great for kids and adults alike can finish the game pretty quick due to sonic's speed. Its really fun watchin my kids play this title! thanks for not only a great experience playing the demo at Best buy doing so is why I purchased it! Thanks best buy

What's great about it: visuals. addicting
What's not so great: takes time to get used to speed
i grew up w/ sonic since his first appearance and liked the fact that i could take my time or go fast if i wanted to. then dreamcast came out and gave sonic a whole new look. nice but i wasn't as attracted to the gameplay as much.
this game, however, really looked great so i got it and was big time impressed! the game is FAST! faster than the last few ones and tho i can take my time going slow if i wanted, i kept wanting to keep the speed up. the grading system is the same as the last few ones and it keeps you wanting to do the levels over and over even if you've already beaten them like 20x just so you can get a better score!
the camera is also constantly moving w/ you whether you're behind sonic er the his side and even then it's not linear. controls are very simple too
great game! definitely recommend even it this isn't your style game.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: the graphics, the intense gameplay
What's not so great: nothin
the game will have nice and distracted for a long time. its a long game just a little bit longer the GEARS OF WAR, and GEARS OF WARS 2. it will keep you wanting to keep playing like you dont want to stop for a bathroom break, or to go to sleep.
I would recommend this to a friend!
