I did care. we considered it over in my discord server and ultimately went with 17 because it's the bigger number. This video was originally meant to release in 2024

@Philosgamestation all right all is good I just wanted to point that out because I didn't know if you knew or not I first played this game on PS2 I didn't play the 360 version till later I like the PS2 version because of its gameplay but the graphics I liked on Wii and 360

I agree with you that it was implemented better in Unleashed if only for not having the rings it can be used on be highlighted.

You wanted to like the game, but couldn't. Doesn't mean the game was "never good" it isn't good in your opinion. Nowadays, people like the game for many reasons, be it nostalgia, comparing its scale to newer titles or whatever other reason. It's good to them.

@Philosgamestation Yes, I wanted to like the game, but its shortcomings, which are many, prevent that. Nostalgia and scale are superficial reasons to consider a game good. People can like it for whatever reasons they want, but it would be disingenuous to call the game great, peak, masterpiece, etc. How much you like or dislike something is not indicative of a thing's quality, but objectively speaking, it's one of the more weaker titles, hence why Sega has since scaled things back to better results, but that doesn't mean that everything Unleashed accomplished should be parted with. We're only now getting back to more ambitious Sonic projects, and Unleashed is a great place to look to in a post Frontiers world, just as long as they don't make the same mistakes.

@Turo602 I totally get what you're saying and think you bring up some great points. I disagree though with how it's objectively one of the more weaker titles. Whether or not a game is a weaker or stronger title is subjective. Someone could consider forces one of the stronger titles. I'd disagree but they aren't objectively wrong. It's a matter of opinion. Is forces lower budget? Sure, but if they consider it great, peak or a masterpiece, I can't say the game is objectively weaker because what is the objective metric are we using to do so? Great comment with even better points though.

@Philosgamestation I disagree with the notion that things can't be critiqued from an objective standpoint. Opinions are subjective, but not all opinions hold the same merit. We have many examples of great video games and understand the standards to which design, mechanics, and gameplay should adhere to. Otherwise, we couldn't praise developers for being good at their job.

@@Turo602 And I agree with you that games can be objectively critiqued. For example" X game doesn't convey to the player how to effectively use one of its main mechanics and fails to provide them with a safe area to figure out how it works." That is an objective critique of X game and is one of its shortcomings. Unfortunately X game has many such objective shortcomings. That wouldn't mean that the game was never good. It was only not good to me. I can say that Sonic Forces is a bad game. I can even say that it is an objectively badly designed game. But I wouldn't say that the game as a whole is objectively bad or objectively weaker. It can be bad by all objective merits, but to call it objectively bad is in my opinion an exaggeration. Of course exaggeration can be used as a tool to convey a point but I wouldn't say it's correct. Basically, this entire conversation hinges on the fact that while you consider Unleashed to be objectively weaker. I don't really get how so. The way I see it, it's a high point in the series history and a fantastic game. Typing this all out though has made me realise that it doesn't really matter. You can say Unleashed is objectively weaker just as I can say the same about forces. Neither of us is "correct" per se but who cares. I'm glad we had this conversation even if it took a long time to type.

Honestly same but maybe that's just nostalgia in my case because the frontiers vocal themes really give it a run for its money.

I think Masterpiece is kind of subjective just because I think the game is a masterpiece doesn't mean you have to. Sure, the game has its issues but I can look past them. Someone who finds them to more negatively impact their play through wouldn't agree in me calling it a masterpiece while someone who has a similar mindset to mine would. Plus a strong expression does for a better title. You wouldn't watch a video called "Sonic unleashed 17 years later - Still really good"

I'll try that next time I do a play through

@@Philosgamestation nice, oh and remember to dodge by pressing a (or x on ps) while shielding

It could have been done so much better. Just look at the Wii version

Great to see you're enjoying it so much. Honestly despite Xbox not being the greatest console in terms of exclusives, their backwards compatibility is unmatched

You know, sometimes it's REALLY difficult to click that heart button

​@@PhilosgamestationLMFAO

Same, he was integral to many people's childhoods

Cobi probably introduced a generation to Unleashed. Sad to see him in his current state though I think he's been getting better. An Unleashed remaster is very needed in a lot of ways and toggleable battle music NEEDS to be there. As for Knuckles, I get why sega wanted to steer away from Sonic's friends for a while but boy did they overdo it.

That's dedication to loving a game I'll give you that.

I wasn't much older when I got the game, I think I was like 9 or 10

@@playerback7722 Yeah, you're right I mistakenly said Unleashed was in the video and then brought up Black knight literally moments later.

​@@Philosgamestation How About (Sonic Lost World Ultimates) Nintendo Switch 1/2 PS4 PS5 Xbox Series x PC Games 😊😊😊😊😊

@SonicTheHedgehogX15 yeah don't judge something until you try it. The Werehog is good but I see why it turns people away.

the werehog scared ppl off due to how different it was from th hedgehog gameplay ill admit, when i first played unleashed i was around 10 years old and i hated the werehog. however, with me getting more interested in combat games like gow, dmc, etc, i started to appreciate the werehog more, and man is it fun to pull off those combos i hope frontiers 2 has a similar level of depth

@@Tripple_777-3 yea Frontiers 2 better be peak

Sure, but I'd have liked it more if it felt faster.

​@Philosgamestation it was fine tho, it felt right

I HATE that boss!

Sonic unleashed can vote in a year

Thank you for the W comment. Seriously though that medal requirement is the bane of replaying this game. 120! No wonder there are mods to lower it.

You should

I was excited for it sure, but years of being a Sonic fan conditioned me to doubt the quality of new reveals. It's actually a miracle that not only does it exist but is as good as it is!

@@JeffTheBagel couldn't have said it better myself

Yeah absolutely. it's just rarer that it happens that way

You should see the cutscenes while fighting the final boss

Don't know how I missed this comment. Nice! What have you been playing?

Super Monkey Ball, Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, and Super Mario Sunshine.

@@AdrianPadrian-s8q Great choices, good luck with sunshine's lilypad
