I genuinely believe that the cutscene animations and lighting engine still haven't been topped in another Sonic game to this day, especially now that the Xbox Series version can run the game without the frame drops that the original Hedgehog engine demanded from consoles of its day.
The fact that the level designers make 5-10 minute stage layouts for a sonic thats going at warp speed at the push of a button is mad respect. Rooftop Run Day, best stage ever

It's an alright experience (as long as it's not the crappy Wii version). While half of the night stages, plane stages, Chip (please don't hurt me), and... ugh... Eggmanland are the major cons of this game, I do find this game to be fun and enjoyable in the other areas.
I never actually played sonic unleashed but I did watch all the cutscenes on youtube as a kid so it still holds some nostalgia for me! and yes, i agree it needs a remake, or at least a port please I wanna actually play the game 😭
@@Xelia1337well you could use either a PS3, PS2, WiiU, Xbox 360 (and later generations), or an emulator to play it. Pretty fun, but the camera is straight ass and the werehog platforming is really bad because he has no drop shadow sometimes
Its my favorite trope in gaming. Its like a little treat for the people who made it to the end. Instead of the dire hopeless feeling, the tide of battle has turned in your favor. Many games do this but i do wish more games leaned into this.
I know that it's been like 7 months since this video came out but as a German just wanted to say that Bienenstich is like one of my favorite cakes ever and you almost pronounced it perfectly so if anyone is wondering how to pronounce it 100%: Bie like the Bee nen just like Choc said stich like shtish The cake is ususally made with sweet but yeasty dough, filled with vanilla whipped cream or just whipped cream, and topped with a mixture containing almonds, honey, cream, butter and sugar so the top is caramalized and crunchy. The dough is often swapped out for a softer and sweeter sponge cake and the filling for vanilla pudding or a mixture of pudding and whipped cream. I hope the explanantion makes sense!
15 years later, this game has gone through quite a transformation in terms of reception and popularity. First being one of the most derided, despised titles in Sonic history at the time of its release (as well as Black Knight, a Sonic game I absolutely love, fight me!), to becoming more of a unique hidden gem from the Dark Age of the franchise. Even to this day, this game, I feel, will forever remain a divisive title in Sonic's legacy. Both figuratively AND literally.
I love how the Button Eggman presses, has Little Lights for every Emerald. Like he Made the entire fleet of Spaceships, but still manages to have money to buy the little LEDs to place under the button case
A simple way to say is that the werehog stages are simply furry god of war. Plus, at least the levels aren’t as bad as what the Wii version is like. For example, one mission is to make it to the goal without breaking a single thing AND you also have a time limit too.
@@diarmikelly4060 trust me, the day time sonic stages on the Wii were so bad that I was literally stuck on one of them for a couple weeks for how stressful it was. I couldn’t even complete the first Eggman Land stage.

@@DeleonAnderson-sg1ml I could see that if you aren’t leveling up your combat to get new moves but honestly the nighttime stages are sometimes just as good if not better than the day ones
The idea of the werehog is fun to me, but I feel they pushed it a little too far. Shorter stages or even having the werehog be able to run faster would have definitely helped.
You know what sucks about UnWiished: No Empire City areas, like literally an entire continent is cut from Unleashed on the Wii, however Unleashed on Wii is shockingly better since dying as Werehog Sonic has no loading screen, you just get revived where your body lies as it's dead.
as a kid i actually preferred the nighttime levels to the daytime ones… call me crazy but i had so much fun doing the platforming and learning combo routes
30:45 Underrated joke! So far, I'm glad to see that you're enjoying the levels so far. I loved this game growing up, so it fills my heart to see someone who likes it too.
If someone told me this game, no no… this MASTERPIECE came out in 2008, I woulda called them crazy. Seriously, this is where Sonic peaked. Unleashed was waaay too ahead of its time, and that goes to show how passionate these devs are. And now look at where they are after having been fired by SEGA. They continue to make more masterpieces for Nintendo. Props to them. They know how to make exceptional games.
This is amazing haha thank you for this video! Brings back so many memories! Your voice commentary in this video just makes this soooooooo much better!
One of my favorite Sonic games ever. Prior to the rest, Sonic (Day) felt his most alive while running, jumping, grinding, sliding, homing attacking, and boosting in this game. Yes, I am one of those people that didn't care for the Night Stages (though I don't hate them), but, man, did they nail the Day Stages. Don't even get me started on the soundtrack.
At least the difficulty of Eggmanland is explained by the lore. He created it with two reasons. 1) To show how huge his ego is and how much he likes himself. 2) To kill Sonic the Hedgehog. And with second he deals wery vell. I would say TOO F###### WELL.
37:58 just think about it. They asked a whole orchestra to make an awful bad version of world adventure for E rank lmao. And the comments on YT under this song, one better than other XD. "Orchestra tried as hard as you did" "Official theme of Sonic Boom" "Theme of Sonic fanart" And most ironic one: "This theme rn constantly plays in sega's studio"
I must say.... Choc's place is some Family Matters tier sitcom cozy. :o Also: Take a drink [of your preferred beverage] every time Sonic goes "WHOOOO!!"
I've never liked the boost era but something about the original Rooftop Run day stage just puts a big smile on my face. I can't put my finger on it but feels better than any other boost stage for me. And I know it's repetitive af but hearing Sonic say, "WOOO!!" when he boosts gets me pumped. He just sounds so excited to do his favorite thing ever.
@@bluevain2255Man, y’all really enjoyed the Wii werehog more? I started with the Wii, and always envied the Xbox version. Off the top, Wii had some fun platforming and levels to run around. More time to enjoy music and the vibes.
@@ViltrumiteIsRite99 I like the pace of the game goes in terms of getting to stages, amount of collectables, and the stages are still unleashed goodness even if different. Compare to the amount of backtracking you need in console to unlock a stage to progress isnt fun by comparison
@@bluevain2255 I haven’t played Unwished since the first couple years it dropped. Even when expecting the medal quota.. “HUH?? I’m still missing 8 medals?!” Another detractor: Sonic is too heavy, and carries way more momentum than he can stop. If you’re trying to do 3D platforming, you’re fighting the controls more than the level design. Felt this the most on Skyscraper Scamper.
@@ViltrumiteIsRite99 agree, I tried to play console version of unleashed, it was ps3 so that may make the experience worse but between the medal collection and eggmanland and sonics controls I found my experience frustrating, though skyscraper city day stage is sick

I forgot to say when this vid first came out but, Sonic Unleashed was my first Sonic game, i got this game after watching Sonic X every Saturday Morning it aired on the now discontinued Vortex channel section, and when i got the game and was in aww of that 20/10 opening, it felt like a Sonic X movie to me with how it had a higher budget and had the same voice cast that i still love to this day. This game will forever be in my top 3 next to Adventure 2 and 3&Knuckles.
Fun fact:Shamar Werehog act 1 is the stage with the most ammount of exp that you can get,being 22 or 23 if you kill every dark gaia enemy in the stage(And it's also the easiest level to S rank if you have a good ammount of stats)
I know this game is crazy old but I never knew that at 50:13 chip straight up drop kicked sonic in the back of the head and you can see he meant to do it 😂
1:00:16 Cool fact; the villagers always have a lot to say across the world, and it's fun to keep tabs. After completing Cool Edge day, the girl will comment how someone smashed a chunk of her property.
21:41 The Tornado transformation was already unironically my favourite part about Sky Chase levels in Adventure But holy hell that one is just sick as hell
Hey choccy bud, saw your post about the low views today. And i think its defintly algorithm because i would've loved to see this sooner. Keep er going your content is awesome - lots of love, your boy $
when i was younger, like 12(which is 3 years ago btw), i played sonic unleashed on my ps3. it was the first sonic game i played and the first game i played on my ps3 all together. from my own experience, it was such an amazing game. yes, the stages were very hard from time to time(mainly the night ones and i cannot forget eggmanland, that shit took me atleast a whole week to complete), the story was great. i really enjoyed the character of chip the most and will be probably the most memorable character for me. and i, which is probably because i was and still am a kid, actually cried during the ending, because i grew to love chip more than any other sonic companion there was throughout the story, but also because i kept failing the last stage for about an hour. to summarize it, the character of chip and the game sonic unleashed will be probably the most memorable for me, ever.
Ya know, I find it funny that the majority of us who played this game on 360 and had to deal with way more shenanigans than what he went through, but we pulled it off a lot better than him.
24:36 I can't believe you removed the part of this scene where chip turns into a ghost and an audio clip plays that makes me think my speakers were broken.
God this game is great, even the werehog stages are enjoyable if you’re not a Neanderthal and just think “me want fast!” The only stages I don’t really enjoy are the Plane segments, they’re kinda annoying, but they’re still manageable. The story is also pretty great imo, and chip is a fun companion (I prefer him over Omochao any day). Overall I say thing game is one of the best in the series.
I miss when Sega or Nintendo made experimental games like this. You couldn’t really get a game like this anymore and it’s a shame to see this era go by.
crazy how much the intro cutscene still holds up even now
I genuinely believe that the cutscene animations and lighting engine still haven't been topped in another Sonic game to this day, especially now that the Xbox Series version can run the game without the frame drops that the original Hedgehog engine demanded from consoles of its day.

This was s tier content do more of these type of intros
I saw this on my recommended thinking it wa san old video but nope. Welcome back Choc
From now on any sonic game you play in the future will be caninazed as you being the inner thoughts of sonic because of this intro to sonic unleashed.
I know this game is crazy old but I never knew that at 50:13 chip straight up drop kicked sonic in the back of the head and you can see he meant to do it 😂
8:38 They literally did the cartoony whistle sound for falling scenes! 😂
1:00:16
Cool fact; the villagers always have a lot to say across the world, and it's fun to keep tabs. After completing Cool Edge day, the girl will comment how someone smashed a chunk of her property.
21:41 The Tornado transformation was already unironically my favourite part about Sky Chase levels in Adventure
But holy hell that one is just sick as hell
Yeah, why wasn't THIS remade for ALL platforms?
Aside from the fact that nobody liked the Night parts of the game.
25:20 I did not have “Choctopus Mentioning Skullgirls” on my bingo card today, but I’m not complaining about it.
“Yup so that happened”
I give up, i ain’t even going to stick around for his evil alter ego to come in and stop the review for a 5 minute bit.
The intro cutscene still holds up amazingly to this day!
How does he not get bored from playing the same game non stop until he beats it?
The music in sonic unleashed is amazing. I still listen to spagonia night. I loved this game lol
Hey choccy bud, saw your post about the low views today. And i think its defintly algorithm because i would've loved to see this sooner. Keep er going your content is awesome - lots of love, your boy $
when i was younger, like 12(which is 3 years ago btw), i played sonic unleashed on my ps3. it was the first sonic game i played and the first game i played on my ps3 all together. from my own experience, it was such an amazing game. yes, the stages were very hard from time to time(mainly the night ones and i cannot forget eggmanland, that shit took me atleast a whole week to complete), the story was great. i really enjoyed the character of chip the most and will be probably the most memorable character for me. and i, which is probably because i was and still am a kid, actually cried during the ending, because i grew to love chip more than any other sonic companion there was throughout the story, but also because i kept failing the last stage for about an hour. to summarize it, the character of chip and the game sonic unleashed will be probably the most memorable for me, ever.
while I love Roger as Sonic I won't deny Choc does a good Sonic voice!
For the Yu-Gi-Oh fans - Chip's VA is also the Voice Actor for Chazz Princeton in Yu-Gi-Oh GX. Had me bamboozled first time I realised this.

Ya know, I find it funny that the majority of us who played this game on 360 and had to deal with way more shenanigans than what he went through, but we pulled it off a lot better than him.
24:36 I can't believe you removed the part of this scene where chip turns into a ghost and an audio clip plays that makes me think my speakers were broken.
I usually forget how good and fun the daytime stages are (and how bad the stages in Colors are compared to these).
Choc uploaded a video is noice but also also my favorite sonic game definitely call that a win
Sonic's guttural screaming as he plummets into the void in this game will never not be funny to me
God this game is great, even the werehog stages are enjoyable if you’re not a Neanderthal and just think “me want fast!” The only stages I don’t really enjoy are the Plane segments, they’re kinda annoying, but they’re still manageable. The story is also pretty great imo, and chip is a fun companion (I prefer him over Omochao any day). Overall I say thing game is one of the best in the series.
3:55 after that, Thanks! now this intro is stuck in my mind for some reason
I miss when Sega or Nintendo made experimental games like this. You couldn’t really get a game like this anymore and it’s a shame to see this era go by.
i love it when sonic channels upload
