A Colt .45 To Sonic's Head!
I wish that Sega would just make a game to end the pitiful Hedgehog's life. I have a great story idea! Once upon a time Sonic failed to save the universe from a GIANT NUKE. Instead of cutting the red or blue wire, he just shot himself in the head! Then we wouldn't have to deal with his poor amount of content, the absolutly grinding repetitive gameplay, the horrible storytelling, and the overall boringness. The only things I liked about it were the facts that the controls were responsive, I could shut it off and then sell it for at least some of my money back! DONE!!!

Sonic Unleashed - 360
Considering how badly Sonic's last dozen or so games have been, it's a good thing the blue blur has been finally unleashed. He goes a little wild with the freedom, but also gets the opportunity to return to his true self. Sonic Unleashed features classic speed-based platforming action that puts Sonic's previous installments to shame. Unfortunately, a set of dreadfully out-of-place action levels starring Sonic's werehog alter ego brings everything to a screeching halt.
THE BOTTOM LINE: It's tough to teach an old dog new tricks -- Sonic Unleashed tries to introduce new ideas with daytime and evening levels that switch between speedy platform and bulky action, but only the former has any bite. Sonic doesn't need to experiment, he just needs a good dose of the nostalgic design that makes up half of this mediocre game.
