Sonic Unleashed

Indeed. Had a look at the Wii screenshots that Famitsu featured last month thanks to some lovely scans on The Sonic Stadium and the Wii version seems to be shaping up just as nice as the 360 and PS3 versions. Can't wait to see some hi-res screens

I heard (this should be correct) that each level has two different types of gameplay: during the day, or at night. In the daytime, Sonic is his normal self. But at night, he transforms into the Sonic Werehog and I believe that his speed is reduced, but his power is enhanced.
Sonic Team has three Sonic games coming out, (Sonic Unleashed, Sonic Chronicles, and Sonic and the Black Knight) But I think that if they blow the first one, people may not take the others in to much interest.
The bummer with this game for me is that it looks like Sonic will be the only playable character.

Sonic being the only playable character is a bummer? That's good news to me!

Remember, Sonic Chronicles is out first and I have no doubt it'll be a massive hit with Bioware behind it.

Sonic Unleashed will do better than expected because people are attracted to the return of the classic, one character style Sonic gameplay. Even if the Werewolf element is rubbish, the Sonic element will easily sell the game alone.

However, the Black Knight game relies heavily on its' sword gimmick and will probably flop because of it. Sonic games shouldn't be about weapons, they should be a about multi-layered stages with speed sections and platforming sections with cute robots to smash and little animals to save from Dr Robotnik (not Eggman).

Well, that's my two cents anyway.

It also helps that its prpobably the firat underated Sonic title before release. Hype generally ruins a gaming experience.

It depends really, the game also features the 2D-3D transtitons like Sonic Unleashed. It also gives players the chance to play as other characers besides Sonic as an option, rather than it being compulsury like previous games. As well as most of Secert Rings oher features (hopefully improved). There's also the fan service in regrads to the fan art competeion Sega set up for this game too, which is prety sweet.
