Okay yea, The Sonic Unleashed opening cutscene should be considered a piece of art. The colours, lighting, action and details get me everytime.
Sonic Free Riders was actually the 3rd game in the series. Sonic Riders Zero Gravity was the 2nd.
Literally feel the exact opposite and am saddened to see so many people disagree. 2005-2009 was Sonic at his most focused and his absolute best, with fire idea after fire idea. What you call a midlife crisis I call a burst of confidence. What so many call the Dark Age is quite frankly the crowning jewel of Sonic the Hedgehog.
everything after heroes was shamelessly taking things from other games shadow was a copy of jak 2, the story of 06 was heavily inspired by jrpg's and the werehog was a god of war clone, it was as if sonic team didn't believe a normal sonic game could work anymore, so they just copied what was popular at the time, the teams working on the hand held and wii games we're trying their best though.
@@Superdude-rd2gs Took things and imo nailed them so I don't see the problem. We got good Sonic, doesn't matter where it stemmed from.
Jord I have loved all of your videos! I discovered you through your Steven Universe video’s.
I have a crazy recommendation/idea for you idk if you watched Gravity Falls growing up but it is an AMAZING show and I would love to see you do similar videos to Steven Universe if you have. If not there has been A LOT of hype surrounding the show lately and I think it would drive a lot of views and hit home for a lot of people to see you review and just talk about a beloved show
I literally used to boot up Sonic Unleashed just to watch that intro cutscene. That was it. Never finished the game on my own. All I wanted was that prime budget consuming content babyyyyy
Nah dawg the game was fire too
Whoever made that opening understands Sonic perfectly
Should give it a chance in my opinion i used to think like you but when i actually tried the game and gave it a chance i fkin loved it and finished it till the end its one of my favourites now that i tried it
@@zakattak393 marza animation, they still work on sonic, watch the sonic frontiers cgi trailers.
People actually look back on Black Knight quite fondly too now, much like Unleashed. Especially when it comes to the story and setting/aesthetics. Often considered the last time Sonic was cool before he became a total joke in the 2010s.
people actually look back on Black Knight fondly now = People who grew up with the game have a fondness for it and everyone who was there when it released still think it’s mid
Sonic Colors and Generations were some kind of bridge beetween the dark abyss that was the late 2000s and 2010s games
As simple as they are, they were like a "bridge" (well recieved games) that was in beetween 2 eras of bad recieved games (Late 2000s with 06, Secret Rings, Unleashed, Black Knight, etc. And 2010s with Lost World, Boom Rise of Lyric, Forces, etc.)
Acting as some kind of checkpoint beetween 2 quite well recieved eras, the early 2000s, with SA1, SA2 and Heroes and the 2020s with Frontiers and Shadow Generations
Yeah those are called nostalgic fans. The games are still mediocre to the core
@@Raptorducki I didn't grow up with the game and while the Wiimote gameplay is eh, the story and characterization is nigh perfect.
@@dancingvalkyriegameplay yes, but the story and all was peak sonic characterization, btw i didnt grow up with it so no nostalgia here
Didja play frontiers or plan on playing Shadow x Sonic Generations?
Jord please rank every weapon and powers from every gems in steven universe
mickey darling jumpscare in the outro
Sonic colors is top tier game and intro
babe wake up jord uploaded
Damn for the quality, the videos are pretty underrated, amazing man ! You inspire me
Thank you so much 🥲🥲
Ngl i frikin love this chanel , its always so cool to see what this guy uploads and really admire the hardwork man❤
This is so nice thank you 🥲🥲🥲
I swear, If you say sonic has a rough transition into 3D at any point in this video, I'm unsubscribing.
14:49 Breath of the wild (ignore the quality) Sonic game.
Sonic frontiers is kinda similar visually.
I FREAKING LOVE SONIC RIDERS
JORDAN RECORDIN
What did Nintendo tried ? They tried something with Zelda yes but mario no
Mario sunshine was a buggy mess and then we had new super mario bros
Epiv
Jord day
omg dude you just upload videos about stuff i love, be my friend
Jord
5:51 you said tails were useless in Sonic Unleashed? He did have a less of a role overall he does more than Amy and knuckles isnt even in Unleashed nor shadow
i mean. tails is kinda useless in unleashed. he plays zero role in the story and only exists to fly sonic around.
@neodoodles333 didn't tails help Sonic And Chip by telling them about Mr. PICKLE that knows about Dark Gaia?
The only reason Sonic and Chip find out about Gaia temples and how to restore the Emeralds is because Tails directed them to Professor Pickle who had studied about the Gaia manifests. Sonic and Chip are able to travel around the globe due to Tails flying them around in the Tornado. Tails is literally essential.
ur like Chris Chan with cool hair
Bro what 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Great another predictable video I’ve seen 2840972728937392975992 times already saying the exact same things I’ve heard 27474883938499473837387292748 times already
Great video! I think the one good thing that came from Sonic ‘06 was the snapcube fandub
I half agreed, Story, Level design and character development and plot is better than most 2010's games
Sonic games that is
Sorry to sound prickly but I just cant stand comments like these, boiling every redeemable aspect to a game down to a dumbass parody video. I used to think the snapcube dubs were whatever but with how much the fandom incessantly quotes them and never lets anyone hear the end of the same tired jokes to clowns who go "itS bEtteR thAn tHe aCtuAl gAmeS! XDDD" I fucking despise them now
@@seematahir5970No, I totally understand where you’re coming from and I’m sorry, I should’ve done a better job broadcasting my previous comment as a joke. The fandubs were actually my first introduction to the Sonic games and I wouldn’t be so deep in this franchise without them. I don’t hate Sonic ‘06 nor do I want to boil it down to just what came out of UA-cam. It was just meant to be a little throwaway joke that clearly didn’t come out the way I meant it to. I agree with you too about feeling frustrated when people say the fandubs are better than the actual games. It’s comparing apples to oranges in terms of experience and it devalues the original games with the writing, programming, and animation that went into them. Sorry that I ruffled your feathers a bit, that wasn’t my intention
@@fossiljasper Nah you're totally good, I completely overreacted. You were clearly just joking about something that's pretty easy to joke about and I took it way too personally. Your apology was extremely well-put but if anything I should be saying sorry, I was just feeling a little burnt out on how much the fandom runs the snapcube dubs into the ground. But it's not on you to deal with that, I'm sorry if I made you feel like you were in the wrong there.
There's a strange amount of fans that look back at these games fondly but its mostly due to nostalgia. These games are seriously mediocre.
Unleashed was great, but the werehog stages were just too damn long and it felt a little too hard for casual players.
Werehog combos and gameplay were better than what crash and spyro was doing at the time with their own hack n slash gameplays, it had a big variety of combos and a decent levelling up system.
New fan, joined in 2021 and am an adult. Same thing with all 3 of my closest friends but for 2023. We all love these games, they are fire. Same with every new fan I've met online or when I attended the London Sonic Symphony, they all love ShtH, 06, Unleashed, all of em. There is no nostalgia factor here, they're literally just misinterpreted and misjudged. If anything it's the exact opposite of nostalgia, a lot of old fans are just stubborn and spiteful towards them.
@@KOTSOSMC2002 Being a new fan is arguably worse because you have even less of an understanding of what a good Sonic game is than older fans. You probably think anything is fun like the dumbass werehog levels, but my standards are higher than that for Sonic
@@dancingvalkyrie So you're trying to say that the time I played a game is more important than the amount of games I've played? If that's not what you're saying I got bad news for you. Played every single Sonic game ever. EVERY one, educational, arcade, mobile, web games, mainline and console spin-offs, different ports of games, games considered borderline lost media probably only 11 people have heard of, I've played it all. And I haven't just played it all, I've read it all. News of the World, Archie, Fleetway, IDW, Story Comic, Shogakukan, CoroCoro, Sonic Channel, guides, manuals, cookbooks, ALL of them. And you guessed, watched it all, shows, films, short films, web shows, licensed partnerships. ALL. OF. IT. If Walter White is the danger I AM the hedgehog. My understanding of Sonic is greater than you for some reason assumed so baselessly.
I don't think about what's best, I KNOW what's best. Your approach here proved what I was saying about older fans too.
@@KOTSOSMC2002 Dont care if you played Sonic and the Black Knight or whatever because that game is no where near as important to the franchise as the classic games are. To understand what a good Sonic game is, youd have to understand the classics because theyre the very foundation of the franchise. The biggest reason why Sonic has become a joke is because the devs REFUSE to understand the classics and instead prefer to experiment with nonsense so they can reinvent the franchise.
