Sonic Unleashed has such a cinematic flair. It really feels like one of Sonic's greatest adventures, just because of those action shots and the music and the impact of every hit... it's so great.
Arguably the most serious eggman has ever been, not counting adventure 2. He's actively trying to *KILL* sonic to the point where sonic literally tells him to simmer down. Eggman's a great villain, if I've ever seen one
In my opinion this is how Eggman should always be. Sonic was never a dark character, but Eggman is. He turns animals into Robots, takes hostages, tries to kill Sonic and his friends, manipulates them into fighting each other etc. He can be goofy, but when fighting should always be serious. I love it when a battle with Eggman has something at stake. Would be interesting to see a boss fight where Eggman captures Sonics friends, traps them in his machine and uses their powers against Sonic. The longer the battle continues, the more life energy of Sonics friends gets consumed. Sonic, although he doesn't want to usually be serious and is just a kid at heart, has to deal with this Eggman, fast and without actually inflicting damage to his friends, all while Eggman tries to really kill Sonic. I love when Eggman crosses the line and Sonic has to get serious. Makes beating Eggman very satisfying.
I agree. I love this game for its fantastic story, how long this game is, and this boss being my number 1 boss in Sonic history. The werehog might not fit Sonic, but it doesn't change who he is: A hero, fighter, and savior. I love this game soooo much!
"This gorge will be your tomb!" then that zoom in, wild evil laugh, and gearing up movement Eggman does at 1:30 shapes up to be the most epic intro to a boss battle I've ever seen in the whole Sonic series. Most fights Sonic just says, "oh, he's over here, gotta go!" and it fades to black as Sonic runs toward an empty space. But THIS, Eggman is FACE TO FACE, literally tells Sonic he's going to perish here, and then slides in one extra Mwahahaha to end it all. Wow.
this boss really changes up the formula too, with all the normal night stage bosses you have stuff like the dark gaia phoenix on dragon road with the water vases to put the fire out, the dark moray in cool edge where you use the nitrogen tanks to freeze it, and then the dark guardian where you push some boxes.......with the egg dragoon there's nothing special you need to do to deal damage, just wait for an opening. sidenote the music is absolutely phenomenal, I listen to this track on repeat like no joke. anyway, the coolest part in my opinion is the way the environment changes, you think the boss is gonna start out in the goal room of eggmanland or maybe another room after getting the temple, but nah he straight up just destroys the floor beneath you to reveal a huge pit that quite literally goes into the core of the planet. so now you're fighting on a falling platform, really awesome environment, fitting for the penultimate boss of the game. but THEN he decides "yeah lets just fuckin do it again" and so now you're FALLING WITH NO PLATFORM. even sonic is taken aback by eggman being so serious what with his line during this being "jeez eggman, simmer down!", which lets be real he's completely right eggman is genuinely being villainous this time around. so after you break through the doors at the bottom you barely land on a really small platform underneath the piece of the earth. BRO how do you make a boss THAT COOL, the environment actively changing throughout and as such changing what moves and attacks are used, for the player being more careful with their movements. NOT ONLY THAT but if you take too long on the bedrock platform he breaks it AGAIN to reveal ANOTHER SMALLER PLATFORM!!! this goes to show that they're actually punishing you for not taking enough priority in beating the dragoon. pretty much everything the boss is designed around is fantastic, if it were made a lot harder and was more extended I would unironically accept this as a final boss, he's the perfect penultimate bossfight.
That is one awesome way to start the endgame of Sonic Unleashed! Sonic himself also deserves some mention. He's at his most serious here as well (probably because he knows Eggman really wants him dead, or perhaps his werehog form makes him more serious, probably a little bit of both) and is well aware that his survival and the wellbeing of his friends are on the line and he must go all out too. If Sonic Unleashed was the last Sonic game in the series, then this would have been the final showdown to end all final showdowns! 😎
4:17 Really love how Eggman starts to panic at the end and even love how it moves to Eggman's POV at the last seconds, showing that even Sonic has become somewhat of a monster as he usually just destroys his machines and thats the end of it but here, he's tearing the machine bit by bit and even aims for what basically is the pilot's cockpit and tears it apart and finishes off with Sonic punching the windshield but prehaps he's actually aimming at eggman. Good thing that glass is bullet-proof as it can somehow withstand a hit of Sonic werehog .
The metal and glass Eggman produced to construct his robots is equivalent to that of the armor on a tank. Seeing Sonic actively tear apart what is essentially a armored tank is terrifying to witness from Eggmans perspective.
@@somerandomdogontheinternet1338 I'd imagine Sonic would pull Eggman by the coat and start demanding that he fixes the mess he made before he decides to crack his head open.
Well, what did Eggman expect? After all, he was at least partly responsible for Sonic transforming into a werehog in the first place. Plus, I'd imagine that by this point, Sonic had pretty much decided he's had enough of Eggman's BS and he essentially let him have it.
@@dotproduct335 i beated the game in 4 hours and i was 10 or 11 years old. Sonic forces was SO easy it was insulting. I blame the haters and IGN for basically forcing sega to make easier games that meant for babies.
Dan yeah I don’t get why in a fight characters will say stuff like “where are you?” or “Get back here!” I mean it’s a fight, they aren’t gonna want to let you win.
I love how Eggman is in this fight, you can’t tell he’s actually trying to kill Sonic and not just beat him and it’s amazing how desperate he gets in the dialogue
This is genuinely the most perfect gameplay of this boss on the internet. First of all, it starts with Eggman saying "Checkmate, Sonic! Hope you've said your goodbyes!" Arguably the better fight quote. Secondly, the music is perfectly timed to literally *every* part of the fight. At 2:19, the QTE matches the music, then again at 2:30, when the music changes pace with the fight. Then, as soon as the QTE section ends, the music changes pace yet again. At 2:51, the music times up to the ground being broken, and then perfectly transitions to the second phase of the fight as the mantle is exposed. At 3:26, as Eggman is charging his barrage, the music swells up and releases accordingly. Finally, at 3:50, the second and last QTE section of the fight starts, the music responds in kind, suddenly becoming tense in nature. At 4:06, the music is perfectly timed to Sonic's jumps towards Eggman, and matches his foreboding nature as Eggman tells him to stay back. It then speeds up as he winds up his punch, and the track loops perfectly as he releases them. The music looping at this part is also very fitting, as Eggman had Sonic backed against a wall when it started, and at this point, the tables have completely turned. I cannot stop watching this, unlike those "20 SATISFYING VIDEOS, 99.9% FEEL SATISFIED AFTER WATCHING" videos, this is *actually* satisfying.
@@somerandomdogontheinternet1338 That would've probably ended the what seemed like the never-ending conflict between Sonic and Dr. Eggman, and it'd be satisfying for many, particularly those who hate Eggman although it would come at the cost of Sonic's morality. So I'm honestly glad Sonic just ripped Eggman out of his cockpit and threw him out of the arena.
@@PrincessQ-fj9ly your acting like Sonic has never killed someone before, what about the knight he decapitated in black knight? But yes I don’t think sonic would kill him
Sonic ( in his head): "This is what I think of Eggmanland! Should not have said "send all complains to me", Egghead!" Yeap. That part is the most amusing part of the original egg dragoon fight. Seems like in Sonic Colours, Eggman learnt his lesson...
How to make this boss even more awesome: 1. Eggman's attacks should charge up a lot quicker 2. Eggman should move quicker around the field 3. More Egg Fighters towards the end of boss fight 4. Eggman's attacks simply need to pack more of a punch 5. Maybe some platforming sections in which you gave to reach the Dragoon by jumping across some rocks, I dunno 6. More witty banter between Sonic and Eggman during the fight
How about making both Eggman's Eggmobile the Ultra-Hyper Prototype-1 version of the Egg Dragoon fall, melting in the planet's core and along with Orbot, Cubot, Aiden Keogh? And switch out Sonic with Sprout's "Earth to Luna!" series' Luna. She could attack, with the Sonic-the-Werehog powered and styled punches, both Eggman's Eggmobile the Ultra-Hyper Prototype-1 version of the Egg Dragoon.
How about a new Sonic game featuring its QTE's, inspired by those of Sonic Unleashed, with both Miles "Tails" Prower and Marine the Raccoon as its playable heroes and Blaze's dimension as its setting, spindash64?
This was the last time I felt like Eggman was truly trying to kill Sonic. Even bringing him to the depths of the earth to bury him. All the newer games just seems like he is fighting Sonic for sport.
this really showed eggman was tired of sonic interfering with his plans and tired of him entirely so he tried to literally kill him and that is why sonic had to tell eggman to simmer down
@@GetShrekd you can't crush someone with the sun. It is made out of gas. On top of that it was an illusion, which is way less threatening than personally taking Sonic to the depths of the Earth. Also there is literally so many things wrong with his "summon" sun to earth plan. If that illusion was even close to real, everyone would have died instantaneously including Eggman because he could see it. Even if eggman didn't die, he wouldn't want to kill everyone because he would rather enslave them in his mechs. Also Just look at Mercury. The planet wouldn't survive the sun literally being on it. Not to mention you wouldn't even be able to see because the sun would just engulf the planet because of the size difference and the entire place would be blinding with light. You actually shouldn't even be able to play the game at that point because the "sun" was poorly represented. The plan doesn't even match Eggman's character because he had been known to not go so far as to make a plan that would destroy the planet he is trying to take over. He has even sided with Sonic in order to defend the planet from greater evil. Forces has a ton of issues with it, and you are definitely barking up the wrong tree trying to use that failure of a game for an argument. Also Eggman had almost no interactions with Sonic in the game to even warrent him giving off an aura of him trying to kill Sonic. If you want to use Sonic forces, tell me why in quite literally the beginning of the game when Eggman won, he just put Sonic in Jail when he clearly could have killed him. So how is it that Eggman was trying to kill him when he literally took care of Sonic and even had to give him food for him to survive in the jail cell. At least in Unleashed, when he stole the power of the chaos emeralds, he ejected Sonic into Earth's gravitational pull because that was a reasonable effort to kill him. Honestly don't even know how Sonic survived that fall.
@@Chibuga if you're going to start adding realism to this for no reason at all, sonic shouldn't even be able to be alive in the earth's core in Unleashed, being that close to magma burns you alive. you shouldn't be able to stay on a platform going that fast towards the core, either, you would be lifted off the ground. that makes no sense, therefore it means eggman in Unleashed isn't serious about killing sonic? trying to use realism as a way of saying something is bad in a sonic game is donkey brained. eggman still wanted to kill everyone with the sun he used, it would still do that if it hit. that isn't playing for sport, he was trying to win. maybe if you weren't so close minded you could see that and I don't give a shit about your plot analysis, your original comment is dumb as fuck. even disregarding forces, he was trying to suck the life out of the earth in lost world, and was ready to kill him in space with enslaved wisp power
@@Chibuga besides it's already been explained why he kept him alive. he wanted to finish building his empire to show sonic what he'd achieved while he was imprisoned before finishing him off
This fight really shows how angry and fed up both eggman and sonic are. Eggman is visibly pissed, destroying terrain and pulling sonic down to the earths core in an attempt to kill him. Sonic isnt giving any witty remarks, justing rushing in anger through the fight, destroying the prototype and even going for a kill shot on eggman, camera even switches to eggmans perspective to show how intense the hit is and how much power is behind it.
Yes, but this boss is still loads of fun despite being easy. After that comes Dark Gaia, which was quite challenging for me. (I got the Xbox 360 version btw)
I struggled with this fight when i was younger... but iirc it was purely because the fight was on a timer (If you didn't kill him fast enough you instadied)
Which part? The 30 minute long werehog stage, or the part the daytime stage that took child me literal DAYS to comeplete. Edit: I played the Wii version, which as I've been told is the best version between all 4 versions. Still need to try the new hardware version though to throw my own full opinion into it. Edit 2: By the way, Werehog was split up in the Wii version, making that part easier for me personally. Also, because I could switch it mid-game, controller options I used was GameCube Controller for daytime because I played Sonic Adventure 2 Battle and the waggle of the Wii remote, even if better than in other games, has slight delay, which really hurt Eggmanland S rank on my first 100%. I then used Wii remote with nunchuck because swinging big stick with werehog's moves is still better for my brain than button combos on a GameCube controller, with precision needed less so it's not that big of a downside. TL;DR: On the Wii version, I can switch controllers, so I use GameCube Controller on day sections and Wii remote with nunchuck in night versions of a stage for better game feel without much being lost.
Man, Sonic ripped this super robot apart WHILE falling to the core of the earth. This IS an intense fight believe it or not. And people say Werehog is bad.
Unfair comparison. This is an intense boss fight on a small platform that benefits the Wearhog gameplay. In the actual Werehog levels, it’s a lot worse
Honestly that falling cut scene is just perfect (it gives me the greatest nostalgic feeling whenever I watch it), it produces a great location for my favorite bosses in video game history. The music is honestly unbelievably perfect. I just love it too much.
I love this boss fight so much just because of how savage Sonic is. He is straight up tearing the Egg Dragoon apart until Eggman begins to beg Sonic to stop.
Me too. You can tell at the end of this fight that Eggman's really seeing for himself the monster he literally created. 4:02 and 4:07 really shows how scared he is of Sonic now and how Sonic himself has made it crystal clear that he's had enough of Eggman's BS and essentially let him have it.
The fact that eggman is willing to go to the bottom of the earth where he could die himself just to murder sonic speaks about the hatred this man has in his heart.
Superplanet That is so true. I have seen people who don't want to play the game because they heard that the werehog sections are one of the worst things ever. Besides, using combos on a load of enemies is really fun and satisfying. The only thing I didn't like about the werehog was that there was no drop shadow when platforming, which caused unfair deaths at times but the werehog really isn't horrible.
Lucky Dog it certainly has great combos, especially when I had the legend of Spyro series where their combos were repetitive as hell, at least Unleashed made it interesting.
Not really, the only thing that wears it down is the werehog stages, just because it slows the adrenaline filled day sections down to a halt for long and drab locations which you wouldn’t really mind in a day setting because you’d be moving to fast to care and they are cool spectacles on their own, but night time stages are just shorter arenas with bits of black goo blocking the way, if sonic team was to remaster the game (which they most likely won’t) I wouldn’t say take out the night stages, because they do have potential, just make it a little more fast paced, give the locations more to be desired for, take out the god awful puzzles, and maybe a few different enemy types to make it interesting
Lucky Dog It's actually the tedious coin hunting that turned me off. I want to get back to the game and actually beat it, but I need a strategy guide to find the coins and the only prima guides found on Amazon is for the vastly inferior Playstation 2 port. There's also needing to photograph dancing drunkards with no mention of where to find them nor what they look like other than their intro cutscene and the fact the camera only holds two pieces of film at once and it isn't clear how to fill it back up.
I love how angry Eggman gets in this fight. This is closest in the entire series (besides I guess Forces, maybe) to actually achieving his dream of building Eggmanland which he's been trying to do since Adventure 1. You can hear the absolute hatred for Sonic in his voice as he crushes everything he's worked for.
Comparing Mike Pollock here to his voice acting in Forces, he is so much more sinister and passionate in his voice acting here in Unleashed. I love how he says "OHH HOHOHOHOHO" as if he's confident that with this new mech he can obliterate Sonic and complete his evil plans. I get chills down my spine when he says "This gorge will be your tomb", he really doesn't mess around in Unleashed. Then we have Forces, where his voice acting is really bland compared to Unleashed. "HA my own genius scares me sometimes" just doesn't make me feel like Eggman was a threat in Forces, he felt more like Bowser from New Super Mario Bros. I hope Mike Pollock can get his true passionate voice back for the next Sonic game in 2021.
This will always be the best version of the Egg Dragoon boss fight. So much intensity, action and atmosphere. Plus I love the cinematic attacks that you can perform with the QTEs. It shits all over Generations and Forces' versions of this fight. Plus this fight works so much better with the Werehog, it's much more fun than with regular Sonic.
In terms of epic Unleashed takes the cake, but Sonic generations actually shakes the fight up by using the completed version of this boss though it doesn't incorporate the qtes which made it so awesome. As for forces, it just used a scrapped model from generations and was a just a filler boss in an engine test game. Tragically forces had the potential to succeed unleashed in terms of epicness but having fatass sonic meant he needed a boss when the custom could've easily made this a level length boss
Sonic generations had to remove a lot of the epicness for modern sonic to fight, in forces it was just a reused model because forces is one of the tech demo games.
This fight holds the same appeal that Kirby Super Star Ultra's "Masked Dedede" does for me. The hero's rival is giving their all. They're serious this time, but also not serious enough to completely lose the sillier qualities that we all love. It truly feels like a final showdown that displays the rivalry in its full glory.
Think about this. Eggman nearly had Sonic this time, not just as the Werehog, he wanted Sonic DEAD. It looked like he had a death warrant with Sonic’s name on it. Besides the rant. Look at of the Egg Dragoon’s attacks, they each have the element of the nighttime bosses in the game. The arm cannon’s machine gun has fire power of the Dark Gaia Phoenix, it also has the ice bomb of the Dark Moray. The drill has the lighting power of the Dark Guardian. When Eggman said this mech had Dark Gaia’s power, he meant it.
MOST. EPIC. BOSS. IN. THIS. SERIES. PERIOD. And wanna know the best part? This *isn't* even... the... FINAL... BOSS!!! When people bash this game they only play like the first 4 levels and give up like the little pussies that they are. Unleashed is an incredible video game. Simply amazing. I've never seen so much effort put into every little detail in a game before. What a blessing. I'll always defend you, Sonic Unleashed.
This in my opinion is the best fight in the entire sonic franchise when it comes to sonic vs eggman. The cutscene before the actual battle has such a cinematic flare to it, the music is menacing and to top it all off, they’re falling down to the earths core. Such a good fight
Man, it amazes me how Werehog Sonic just relentlessly tears the egg dragoon apart. Especially when he straight attacks eggman in his cockpit. A perfect example of what would happen if Sonic had a hard time controlling his Werehog form.
a delicate point on an otherwise armored machine that lights up and serves as a possible weak point logic would dictate that it's a power cell of some kind. hence the lighting up.
To me, the ultimate moment that defines the concept of: "Sonic Vs Eggman." Just the viceral hatrid and energy of Eggman's Yelling, The Music... If this were a Modern Sonic fight, I'm VERY Sure I would call this my Favorite Eggman Boss Fight Too.
I just love how parts of the battle are matching with the bgm Perfectly! Just listen to the "raging/falling down" part, the bit when he deploys the wing units and the final sequence as well. I don't know if you intentionally practiced it to get these results or this was random, but either way Epic Job! :D
Years later I only now realize how ferocious Sonic was. I got a grasp on how damn crazy Eggman was, but running it back to see how Sonic was just about ready to break the glass and, in my head, grab Eggman by scruff, makes me recoil a bit. Like, imagine your nemesis who is usually level headed and lets you off the hook commonly cause he knows you can't exactly do much, suddenly starts breaking up your entire machine and little hovercraft that has the power of a GOD inside it, and has the DURABILITY OF WHAT COULD BE A TANK.
There’s some symbolism in this fight. Eggman made the dragoon to specifically counter all of Sonic’s speed with severe perfect targeting and deadly damage that Sonic can’t compete with, but then Eggman goes and turns Sonic into a werehog, thinking this would defeat him, but no, the thing he created makes his real demise, turning the thing made to counter the fast hedgehog now a last resort for a deadly monster.
A few observations: 1) Sonic Unleashed is pretty great 2) Is it just me or does Eggman go HARD in this fight, like he's out for BLOOD 3) ...Why do the quicktime events sound like doorbells?
1) Yep! 2) He's out for the kill. Sonic has just undone the victory Eggman finally had after all these games - Dark Gaia, Eggmanland. He's finally had enough of Sonic. 3) ...No idea.
Probably because this is a hint of what Sonic would be capable of if Eggman pushed him too far, and I think Eggman knows it. With the speeds Sonic is capable of obtaining, along with the fact that he can frequently tear through solid metal with ease, the not so good doctor is probably grateful deep down that Sonic is so casual and jokey most of the time, as the Blue Blur could reduce him to a greasy smear without even trying.
Fighting a super polished and supercharged looking extermination robot while falling down to the core, GRADUALLY tearing it apart is a special kind of badass.
The only issue with this fight is that it takes part at the point of the game where the werehog has become far too OP since you've shovelled so many upgrades into him, they should have made it so the Egg Dragoon just freaking tanked up the health like the Death Egg Robot.
+Skwalker Personnally, he's not this squishy when it's the first time you fight him. I had to use a second avatar for play a new game and, only for the challenge, I didn't put upgrade on Strength
I'm sorry for all you fans out there that love the Generations boss fight and I like it too but in my opinion you cannot compare the Generations boss fight to this (and I said in my opinion so so don't kill me for saying this)
Jashaun Strother I say you can't compare them, and basically all the bosses of Generations to the original, cause they are two different situations. Egg Dragoon: The music and battle is different cause 1) Eggman is pissed and wants to kill you and 2) it's the Werehog fighting, while in Generations Eggman is calmer and it's Hedgehog Sonic, on top of that, Sonic has fought him before and knows what to do, even with the new upgrades and being in his normal form another example is Prefect Chaos. Adventure version sounds more upbeat and is easier cause (Super) Sonic wasn't trying to actually beat him, but purify him, he knew he could do it without fail. While the Generations version is reversed. Sonic is in his normal form and can't just purify him, he has to actually fight the beast, so it sounds more intense and darker while being a harder and longer fight than before cause now it is. And probably the best example is the Big Arms on the 3ds versions. Considered the harder classic Sonic boss can be beaten in 40 seconds in the 3ds Generations version. Why? cause (in real life the original was a final boss while the Generations one was the first boss, but game wise) Sonic has seen and knows how to beat'em no problem now, so it's not a problem.
It took me over 11 years to realize what those cylindrical units Sonic tore off after the first quick time event actually did, as the Egg Dragoon overall seems almost entirely unaffected. They were shield generators. Up until he tore them off, a likely near invulnerable or at least durable energy shield was protecting the eggmobile’s cockpit. But it vanished the moment those cylinders were torn off.
@@klpliper I mean this is the same 300 IQ mad scientist who not only builds colossal airships like Final Fortress (which knuckles states makes the Egg Carrier look small in comparison), dragged entire planets across the universe to chain up, and canonically built a freaking Dyson sphere. But also made a robot based entirely upon weaponized slot machine gameplay that attacks itself and even powers up his opponent’s most destructive attack (Egg Dealer). And on another occasion was stupid enough to build a lava and Sonic-Proof machine that is impervious to anything but its own mines that it explicitly directs back into itself as a form of attack. (Lava Reef Act 2 boss in S3&K) I guess what I’m trying to say is he either let his own hubris get the better of him, or used some arbitrary or ignorant reasoning in his choice of where to put the shield generators. This logic is probably the same kind he employs in this very confrontation where he fires a massive drill rocket making up like a tenth of the machine’s mass at Sonic while he’s directly in front of the vulnerable power core he otherwise keeps at melee level with his enemy.
It's cool how Dark Gaia's power seems to be on the same level, if not stronger, than the Chaos Emeralds. It powered Eggmanland, helped create his machines, and the only power that ever hurt Super Sonic. It seems the only downside is that it drives the user mad as shown with Werehog's viciousness and Eggman out for blood in this fight
Are we going to talk about Eggman's egg mobile glass? What the actual heck is that made of? it withstood his damn punch and let me remind you his PUNCH BROKE THE STEEL VAULT BACK IN MAZURI
Eggman wasn't prepared for this kind of fight against sonic hence why he got beat as hard as he did. Egg dragoon was designed to fight against sonic in his regular form and counter his speed but eggman never expected to be fighting the hulk/spiderman/Mr fantastic the hedgehog
This is one awesome way to start the endgame of Sonic Unleashed! Dr. Eggman is arguably at his most serious since Sonic Adventure 2. At this point, he's done D-O-N-E DONE with Sonic and is ready to kill him once and for all. Sonic himself also deserves some mention. He's at his most serious here as well (probably because he knows Eggman really wants him dead, or perhaps his werehog form makes him more serious, probably a little bit of both) and is well aware that his survival and the wellbeing of his friends are on the line and he must go all out too. If Sonic Unleashed was the last Sonic game in the series, then this would have been the final showdown to end all final showdowns! 😎

Sonic Unleashed has such a cinematic flair. It really feels like one of Sonic's greatest adventures, just because of those action shots and the music and the impact of every hit... it's so great.
Agreed!
I would just say its different. Just because its different then the other sonic games doesn't make it better...😐
Sonic unleashed is sonic adventure 3 if you think about it...
Chomper Steam Both Sonic O6 and Sonic Unleash are basically Sonic Adventure 3 no one wants to accept it though.
That one man behind the garbage can the game was supposed to be named « sonic adventure 3 » but they changed and named it « World Adventure »
Arguably the most serious eggman has ever been, not counting adventure 2. He's actively trying to *KILL* sonic to the point where sonic literally tells him to simmer down. Eggman's a great villain, if I've ever seen one
Mania did too, kinda
*Simmer down you fat goof* !!
In my opinion this is how Eggman should always be. Sonic was never a dark character, but Eggman is. He turns animals into Robots, takes hostages, tries to kill Sonic and his friends, manipulates them into fighting each other etc. He can be goofy, but when fighting should always be serious. I love it when a battle with Eggman has something at stake. Would be interesting to see a boss fight where Eggman captures Sonics friends, traps them in his machine and uses their powers against Sonic. The longer the battle continues, the more life energy of Sonics friends gets consumed. Sonic, although he doesn't want to usually be serious and is just a kid at heart, has to deal with this Eggman, fast and without actually inflicting damage to his friends, all while Eggman tries to really kill Sonic. I love when Eggman crosses the line and Sonic has to get serious. Makes beating Eggman very satisfying.

I did really enjoy the combat with the werehog, but the parkour as the werehog was absolutely terrible.

I agree. I love this game for its fantastic story, how long this game is, and this boss being my number 1 boss in Sonic history. The werehog might not fit Sonic, but it doesn't change who he is: A hero, fighter, and savior. I love this game soooo much!
I also loved the werehog
"This gorge will be your tomb!" then that zoom in, wild evil laugh, and gearing up movement Eggman does at 1:30 shapes up to be the most epic intro to a boss battle I've ever seen in the whole Sonic series. Most fights Sonic just says, "oh, he's over here, gotta go!" and it fades to black as Sonic runs toward an empty space. But THIS, Eggman is FACE TO FACE, literally tells Sonic he's going to perish here, and then slides in one extra Mwahahaha to end it all. Wow.
This fight makes you feel like Eggman genuinely wants Sonic dead, and I love it

this boss really changes up the formula too, with all the normal night stage bosses you have stuff like the dark gaia phoenix on dragon road with the water vases to put the fire out, the dark moray in cool edge where you use the nitrogen tanks to freeze it, and then the dark guardian where you push some boxes.......with the egg dragoon there's nothing special you need to do to deal damage, just wait for an opening. sidenote the music is absolutely phenomenal, I listen to this track on repeat like no joke. anyway, the coolest part in my opinion is the way the environment changes, you think the boss is gonna start out in the goal room of eggmanland or maybe another room after getting the temple, but nah he straight up just destroys the floor beneath you to reveal a huge pit that quite literally goes into the core of the planet. so now you're fighting on a falling platform, really awesome environment, fitting for the penultimate boss of the game. but THEN he decides "yeah lets just fuckin do it again" and so now you're FALLING WITH NO PLATFORM. even sonic is taken aback by eggman being so serious what with his line during this being "jeez eggman, simmer down!", which lets be real he's completely right eggman is genuinely being villainous this time around. so after you break through the doors at the bottom you barely land on a really small platform underneath the piece of the earth. BRO how do you make a boss THAT COOL, the environment actively changing throughout and as such changing what moves and attacks are used, for the player being more careful with their movements. NOT ONLY THAT but if you take too long on the bedrock platform he breaks it AGAIN to reveal ANOTHER SMALLER PLATFORM!!! this goes to show that they're actually punishing you for not taking enough priority in beating the dragoon. pretty much everything the boss is designed around is fantastic, if it were made a lot harder and was more extended I would unironically accept this as a final boss, he's the perfect penultimate bossfight.
That is one awesome way to start the endgame of Sonic Unleashed! Sonic himself also deserves some mention. He's at his most serious here as well (probably because he knows Eggman really wants him dead, or perhaps his werehog form makes him more serious, probably a little bit of both) and is well aware that his survival and the wellbeing of his friends are on the line and he must go all out too. If Sonic Unleashed was the last Sonic game in the series, then this would have been the final showdown to end all final showdowns! 😎
the egg Dragooon is eggman's most badass mech
Death egg robot

***** Exactly!
4:17 Really love how Eggman starts to panic at the end and even love how it moves to Eggman's POV at the last seconds, showing that even Sonic has become somewhat of a monster as he usually just destroys his machines and thats the end of it but here, he's tearing the machine bit by bit and even aims for what basically is the pilot's cockpit and tears it apart and finishes off with Sonic punching the windshield but prehaps he's actually aimming at eggman.
Good thing that glass is bullet-proof as it can somehow withstand a hit of Sonic werehog .
Imagine if he broke through the glass
The metal and glass Eggman produced to construct his robots is equivalent to that of the armor on a tank. Seeing Sonic actively tear apart what is essentially a armored tank is terrifying to witness from Eggmans perspective.
@@somerandomdogontheinternet1338 I'd imagine Sonic would pull Eggman by the coat and start demanding that he fixes the mess he made before he decides to crack his head open.
Well, what did Eggman expect? After all, he was at least partly responsible for Sonic transforming into a werehog in the first place. Plus, I'd imagine that by this point, Sonic had pretty much decided he's had enough of Eggman's BS and he essentially let him have it.
@@somerandomdogontheinternet1338Imagine if he f*cking *killed* Eggman?
2:58 You can really tell Eggman snapped in this fight when even Sonic is telling him to calm down.
That's probably the only reminder that this song is from a Sonic game.

I like the music for this boss
This is genuinely the most perfect gameplay of this boss on the internet. First of all, it starts with Eggman saying "Checkmate, Sonic! Hope you've said your goodbyes!" Arguably the better fight quote. Secondly, the music is perfectly timed to literally *every* part of the fight.
At 2:19, the QTE matches the music, then again at 2:30, when the music changes pace with the fight. Then, as soon as the QTE section ends, the music changes pace yet again.
At 2:51, the music times up to the ground being broken, and then perfectly transitions to the second phase of the fight as the mantle is exposed.
At 3:26, as Eggman is charging his barrage, the music swells up and releases accordingly.
Finally, at 3:50, the second and last QTE section of the fight starts, the music responds in kind, suddenly becoming tense in nature. At 4:06, the music is perfectly timed to Sonic's jumps towards Eggman, and matches his foreboding nature as Eggman tells him to stay back. It then speeds up as he winds up his punch, and the track loops perfectly as he releases them. The music looping at this part is also very fitting, as Eggman had Sonic backed against a wall when it started, and at this point, the tables have completely turned.
I cannot stop watching this, unlike those "20 SATISFYING VIDEOS, 99.9% FEEL SATISFIED AFTER WATCHING" videos, this is *actually* satisfying.
The music at 3:50 and Eggman saying “STAY BACK” honestly made me think Sonic was gonna punch through the glass and kill him
I fought this boss like 100+ times and have never heard that alternate line
@@somerandomdogontheinternet1338 That would've probably ended the what seemed like the never-ending conflict between Sonic and Dr. Eggman, and it'd be satisfying for many, particularly those who hate Eggman although it would come at the cost of Sonic's morality. So I'm honestly glad Sonic just ripped Eggman out of his cockpit and threw him out of the arena.

Eggman:
"Looks like I'm blasting off AGAAAAIIIIIINNNN!!!"
Sonic ( in his head): "This is what I think of Eggmanland! Should not have said "send all complains to me", Egghead!"

How to make this boss even more awesome:
1. Eggman's attacks should charge up a lot quicker
2. Eggman should move quicker around the field
3. More Egg Fighters towards the end of boss fight
4. Eggman's attacks simply need to pack more of a punch
5. Maybe some platforming sections in which you gave to reach the Dragoon by jumping across some rocks, I dunno
6. More witty banter between Sonic and Eggman during the fight
How about making both Eggman's Eggmobile the Ultra-Hyper Prototype-1 version of the Egg Dragoon fall, melting in the planet's core and along with Orbot, Cubot, Aiden Keogh?
And switch out Sonic with Sprout's "Earth to Luna!" series' Luna. She could attack, with the Sonic-the-Werehog powered and styled punches, both Eggman's Eggmobile the Ultra-Hyper Prototype-1 version of the Egg Dragoon.
Resumindo, você quer uma batalha bem ao estilo Crash Bandicoot? Eu penso o mesmo! =)
Bubble Wiz ... Yes...
Aidan Keogh
More health too. Seriously, the QTE's were actually fun here. It'd also be fun if you had to spin the stick to send him flying off
How about a new Sonic game featuring its QTE's, inspired by those of Sonic Unleashed, with both Miles "Tails" Prower and Marine the Raccoon as its playable heroes and Blaze's dimension as its setting, spindash64?
This was an incredibly intense and epic fight...you knew that this time, Eggman was out to kill you once and for all.

@@_dt1230 exactly
@@_dt1230 this is one of my favorite battles just because os this
I like how badass this is, they're fighting while falling to the fucking CORE of the EARTH.
This was the last time I felt like Eggman was truly trying to kill Sonic. Even bringing him to the depths of the earth to bury him. All the newer games just seems like he is fighting Sonic for sport.
this really showed eggman was tired of sonic interfering with his plans and tired of him entirely so he tried to literally kill him and that is why sonic had to tell eggman to simmer down
He literally tried to crush sonic with the sun in forces
@@GetShrekd you can't crush someone with the sun. It is made out of gas. On top of that it was an illusion, which is way less threatening than personally taking Sonic to the depths of the Earth.
Also there is literally so many things wrong with his "summon" sun to earth plan. If that illusion was even close to real, everyone would have died instantaneously including Eggman because he could see it. Even if eggman didn't die, he wouldn't want to kill everyone because he would rather enslave them in his mechs. Also Just look at Mercury. The planet wouldn't survive the sun literally being on it. Not to mention you wouldn't even be able to see because the sun would just engulf the planet because of the size difference and the entire place would be blinding with light. You actually shouldn't even be able to play the game at that point because the "sun" was poorly represented.
The plan doesn't even match Eggman's character because he had been known to not go so far as to make a plan that would destroy the planet he is trying to take over. He has even sided with Sonic in order to defend the planet from greater evil.
Forces has a ton of issues with it, and you are definitely barking up the wrong tree trying to use that failure of a game for an argument.
Also Eggman had almost no interactions with Sonic in the game to even warrent him giving off an aura of him trying to kill Sonic. If you want to use Sonic forces, tell me why in quite literally the beginning of the game when Eggman won, he just put Sonic in Jail when he clearly could have killed him. So how is it that Eggman was trying to kill him when he literally took care of Sonic and even had to give him food for him to survive in the jail cell. At least in Unleashed, when he stole the power of the chaos emeralds, he ejected Sonic into Earth's gravitational pull because that was a reasonable effort to kill him. Honestly don't even know how Sonic survived that fall.
@@Chibuga if you're going to start adding realism to this for no reason at all, sonic shouldn't even be able to be alive in the earth's core in Unleashed, being that close to magma burns you alive. you shouldn't be able to stay on a platform going that fast towards the core, either, you would be lifted off the ground. that makes no sense, therefore it means eggman in Unleashed isn't serious about killing sonic?
trying to use realism as a way of saying something is bad in a sonic game is donkey brained.
eggman still wanted to kill everyone with the sun he used, it would still do that if it hit. that isn't playing for sport, he was trying to win. maybe if you weren't so close minded you could see that
and I don't give a shit about your plot analysis, your original comment is dumb as fuck. even disregarding forces, he was trying to suck the life out of the earth in lost world, and was ready to kill him in space with enslaved wisp power
@@Chibuga besides it's already been explained why he kept him alive. he wanted to finish building his empire to show sonic what he'd achieved while he was imprisoned before finishing him off
Is anyone else questioning why Chip didn't just fly down?
teiappeo 0000 lol it does sound like that but he says "How about this!? Fire!

Tyler Featherlan walls. air.
Eh oversight by the animators and storywriters
This fight really shows how angry and fed up both eggman and sonic are. Eggman is visibly pissed, destroying terrain and pulling sonic down to the earths core in an attempt to kill him. Sonic isnt giving any witty remarks, justing rushing in anger through the fight, destroying the prototype and even going for a kill shot on eggman, camera even switches to eggmans perspective to show how intense the hit is and how much power is behind it.
After having to complete the hell known as Eggmanland, you have no idea how relived I was to fight an easy boss
LeviX
Yeah egg dragoon was VERY easy in my opinion. I hated the 360 version because of its shitty controls and poor Handling
Yes, and after an easy boss, the devil goes next, aka Dark Gaia, that was the hell for me
Yes, but this boss is still loads of fun despite being easy. After that comes Dark Gaia, which was quite challenging for me. (I got the Xbox 360 version btw)
I struggled with this fight when i was younger... but iirc it was purely because the fight was on a timer (If you didn't kill him fast enough you instadied)
Which part? The 30 minute long werehog stage, or the part the daytime stage that took child me literal DAYS to comeplete.
Edit: I played the Wii version, which as I've been told is the best version between all 4 versions. Still need to try the new hardware version though to throw my own full opinion into it.
Edit 2: By the way, Werehog was split up in the Wii version, making that part easier for me personally. Also, because I could switch it mid-game, controller options I used was GameCube Controller for daytime because I played Sonic Adventure 2 Battle and the waggle of the Wii remote, even if better than in other games, has slight delay, which really hurt Eggmanland S rank on my first 100%. I then used Wii remote with nunchuck because swinging big stick with werehog's moves is still better for my brain than button combos on a GameCube controller, with precision needed less so it's not that big of a downside. TL;DR: On the Wii version, I can switch controllers, so I use GameCube Controller on day sections and Wii remote with nunchuck in night versions of a stage for better game feel without much being lost.
Man, Sonic ripped this super robot apart WHILE falling to the core of the earth. This IS an intense fight believe it or not. And people say Werehog is bad.
The werehog itself isnt bad. Its the levels that are
Unfair comparison. This is an intense boss fight on a small platform that benefits the Wearhog gameplay. In the actual Werehog levels, it’s a lot worse

Honestly that falling cut scene is just perfect (it gives me the greatest nostalgic feeling whenever I watch it), it produces a great location for my favorite bosses in video game history. The music is honestly unbelievably perfect. I just love it too much.
I love this boss fight so much just because of how savage Sonic is. He is straight up tearing the Egg Dragoon apart until Eggman begins to beg Sonic to stop.
Me too. You can tell at the end of this fight that Eggman's really seeing for himself the monster he literally created. 4:02 and 4:07 really shows how scared he is of Sonic now and how Sonic himself has made it crystal clear that he's had enough of Eggman's BS and essentially let him have it.
The fact that eggman is willing to go to the bottom of the earth where he could die himself just to murder sonic speaks about the hatred this man has in his heart.

shaun03a
I think Sonic actually started coming up with names for them himself, honestly
Knowing Sonic he's probably been doing that since he met Eggman
The most underrated game ever!
Superplanet I think I would love the werehog sections but I keep getting stuck on them (not the bosses) but I like them.
Superplanet That is so true. I have seen people who don't want to play the game because they heard that the werehog sections are one of the worst things ever. Besides, using combos on a load of enemies is really fun and satisfying. The only thing I didn't like about the werehog was that there was no drop shadow when platforming, which caused unfair deaths at times but the werehog really isn't horrible.
Lucky Dog it certainly has great combos, especially when I had the legend of Spyro series where their combos were repetitive as hell, at least Unleashed made it interesting.
Not really, the only thing that wears it down is the werehog stages, just because it slows the adrenaline filled day sections down to a halt for long and drab locations which you wouldn’t really mind in a day setting because you’d be moving to fast to care and they are cool spectacles on their own, but night time stages are just shorter arenas with bits of black goo blocking the way, if sonic team was to remaster the game (which they most likely won’t) I wouldn’t say take out the night stages, because they do have potential, just make it a little more fast paced, give the locations more to be desired for, take out the god awful puzzles, and maybe a few different enemy types to make it interesting
Lucky Dog It's actually the tedious coin hunting that turned me off. I want to get back to the game and actually beat it, but I need a strategy guide to find the coins and the only prima guides found on Amazon is for the vastly inferior Playstation 2 port. There's also needing to photograph dancing drunkards with no mention of where to find them nor what they look like other than their intro cutscene and the fact the camera only holds two pieces of film at once and it isn't clear how to fill it back up.
Damn, the HD version is a hell of a lot better than the Playstation 2.

I love how angry Eggman gets in this fight. This is closest in the entire series (besides I guess Forces, maybe) to actually achieving his dream of building Eggmanland which he's been trying to do since Adventure 1. You can hear the absolute hatred for Sonic in his voice as he crushes everything he's worked for.
That time where he didn't lose 10% of his combat strength
Comparing Mike Pollock here to his voice acting in Forces, he is so much more sinister and passionate in his voice acting here in Unleashed. I love how he says "OHH HOHOHOHOHO" as if he's confident that with this new mech he can obliterate Sonic and complete his evil plans. I get chills down my spine when he says "This gorge will be your tomb", he really doesn't mess around in Unleashed. Then we have Forces, where his voice acting is really bland compared to Unleashed. "HA my own genius scares me sometimes" just doesn't make me feel like Eggman was a threat in Forces, he felt more like Bowser from New Super Mario Bros. I hope Mike Pollock can get his true passionate voice back for the next Sonic game in 2021.
Imo mikes performance in frontiers doesnt sound like eggman it sounds like... mike pollock. Underwhelmed tbh
@@Nister.N it’s still better than sonic 06

This will always be the best version of the Egg Dragoon boss fight. So much intensity, action and atmosphere. Plus I love the cinematic attacks that you can perform with the QTEs. It shits all over Generations and Forces' versions of this fight. Plus this fight works so much better with the Werehog, it's much more fun than with regular Sonic.
ok it does not shit on generations’s fight, the forces one however is so easy and shitty, literally even classic sonic could do it.
In terms of epic
Unleashed takes the cake, but Sonic generations actually shakes the fight up by using the completed version of this boss though it doesn't incorporate the qtes which made it so awesome.
As for forces, it just used a scrapped model from generations and was a just a filler boss in an engine test game.
Tragically forces had the potential to succeed unleashed in terms of epicness but having fatass sonic meant he needed a boss when the custom could've easily made this a level length boss
1:32;Lord Boxman when he robotizes K.O.
Sonic generations had to remove a lot of the epicness for modern sonic to fight, in forces it was just a reused model because forces is one of the tech demo games.
This fight holds the same appeal that Kirby Super Star Ultra's "Masked Dedede" does for me. The hero's rival is giving their all. They're serious this time, but also not serious enough to completely lose the sillier qualities that we all love. It truly feels like a final showdown that displays the rivalry in its full glory.
Not only can you hear the anger in Eggman's voice, in some lines, you can actually hear genuine fear. Like the, "Stay back!" line.
Think about this. Eggman nearly had Sonic this time, not just as the Werehog, he wanted Sonic DEAD. It looked like he had a death warrant with Sonic’s name on it. Besides the rant. Look at of the Egg Dragoon’s attacks, they each have the element of the nighttime bosses in the game. The arm cannon’s machine gun has fire power of the Dark Gaia Phoenix, it also has the ice bomb of the Dark Moray. The drill has the lighting power of the Dark Guardian. When Eggman said this mech had Dark Gaia’s power, he meant it.
Good observation.
Never thought of it like that
MOST. EPIC. BOSS. IN. THIS. SERIES. PERIOD. And wanna know the best part? This *isn't* even... the... FINAL... BOSS!!! When people bash this game they only play like the first 4 levels and give up like the little pussies that they are. Unleashed is an incredible video game. Simply amazing. I've never seen so much effort put into every little detail in a game before. What a blessing.
I'll always defend you, Sonic Unleashed.
Can't agree more XD
Although the ps2 version of the egg dragoon isn't as epic (In my opinion)
alexa sharesatu but PS2 version is harder, longer, fast pieced but less cinematic.
Yeah, sonic unleashed is amazing!
Honestly... I just couldn't get into the game. But more power to you if you can enjoy it.

This in my opinion is the best fight in the entire sonic franchise when it comes to sonic vs eggman. The cutscene before the actual battle has such a cinematic flare to it, the music is menacing and to top it all off, they’re falling down to the earths core. Such a good fight
Man, it amazes me how Werehog Sonic just relentlessly tears the egg dragoon apart. Especially when he straight attacks eggman in his cockpit. A perfect example of what would happen if Sonic had a hard time controlling his Werehog form.
A lot of people hated the werehog form. As a bodybuilder and a brawler however I feel represented with that form.

a delicate point on an otherwise armored machine that lights up and serves as a possible weak point logic would dictate that it's a power cell of some kind. hence the lighting up.
"Behold, the untra-hyper Prototype-1!"
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! This is a very delicate machine!"
To me, the ultimate moment that defines the concept of: "Sonic Vs Eggman."
Just the viceral hatrid and energy of Eggman's Yelling, The Music...
If this were a Modern Sonic fight, I'm VERY Sure I would call this my Favorite Eggman Boss Fight Too.
"G-Geez, Eggman! Simmer down!" Says the feral Werehog.
I agree with Sonic. Eggman really needs to take a chill pill.
I just love how parts of the battle are matching with the bgm Perfectly!
Just listen to the "raging/falling down" part, the bit when he deploys the wing units and the final sequence as well.
I don't know if you intentionally practiced it to get these results or this was random, but either way Epic Job! :D
I love how the music and the actual battle seem to be sync in this video. Kinda makes this awesome boss look even more awesome.
Years later I only now realize how ferocious Sonic was. I got a grasp on how damn crazy Eggman was, but running it back to see how Sonic was just about ready to break the glass and, in my head, grab Eggman by scruff, makes me recoil a bit. Like, imagine your nemesis who is usually level headed and lets you off the hook commonly cause he knows you can't exactly do much, suddenly starts breaking up your entire machine and little hovercraft that has the power of a GOD inside it, and has the DURABILITY OF WHAT COULD BE A TANK.
0:26 LOOK HOW HE SAYS IT!
There’s some symbolism in this fight. Eggman made the dragoon to specifically counter all of Sonic’s speed with severe perfect targeting and deadly damage that Sonic can’t compete with, but then Eggman goes and turns Sonic into a werehog, thinking this would defeat him, but no, the thing he created makes his real demise, turning the thing made to counter the fast hedgehog now a last resort for a deadly monster.
A few observations:
1) Sonic Unleashed is pretty great
2) Is it just me or does Eggman go HARD in this fight, like he's out for BLOOD
3) ...Why do the quicktime events sound like doorbells?
1) Yep!
2) He's out for the kill. Sonic has just undone the victory Eggman finally had after all these games - Dark Gaia, Eggmanland. He's finally had enough of Sonic.
3) ...No idea.
4) at 4:08 the first 2 hits where synced with music
I low key like em doe ngl da bell sound is kinda nostalgic
I Like How Sonic Scares Eggman More As A Werehog Then He Ever Could As Himself.
Me too. 4:07 really shows just how scared he is of Sonic as he ferociously makes his way to Eggman's dome and proceeds to smash it up.
Probably because this is a hint of what Sonic would be capable of if Eggman pushed him too far, and I think Eggman knows it. With the speeds Sonic is capable of obtaining, along with the fact that he can frequently tear through solid metal with ease, the not so good doctor is probably grateful deep down that Sonic is so casual and jokey most of the time, as the Blue Blur could reduce him to a greasy smear without even trying.
Personally this is one of the most satisfying and cinematic fights in the series
Fighting a super polished and supercharged looking extermination robot while falling down to the core, GRADUALLY tearing it apart is a special kind of badass.
so many years later and this shit is still so fucking cool. my favorite sonic boss ever. Werehog got eggman fearing for his LIFE.

The only issue with this fight is that it takes part at the point of the game where the werehog has become far too OP since you've shovelled so many upgrades into him, they should have made it so the Egg Dragoon just freaking tanked up the health like the Death Egg Robot.
+Skwalker I will admit that the boss is piss easy, but this is a fight I enjoy from the cinematics alone.
Oh yeah no denying that at all man, I've replayed this boss at least twenty times :D
+Skwalker Personnally, he's not this squishy when it's the first time you fight him. I had to use a second avatar for play a new game and, only for the challenge, I didn't put upgrade on Strength
2:58 geez eggman! Simmer down! 😟
Did anyone hear how Sonic's first punch in the final sequence LINED UP WITH THE MUSIC?
No
remind me again why this game got worse scores than Sonic 06?
fia Because people just love to hate on Sonic ever since O6 came out its just a easy thing to do now

I AND G AND N
Because everyone hated the Werehog stages.
Can't guess why, I thought they were fantastic.
One word
Mephiles
Mephiles was just a... Uhh, a sleep-deprived homeless person. Or something.
I think.
1:00 the most badass slide that sonic has ever did in his life yet tbh
I'm sorry for all you fans out there that love the Generations boss fight and I like it too but in my opinion you cannot compare the Generations boss fight to this (and I said in my opinion so so don't kill me for saying this)
I'd say the the same thing
Jashaun Strother
I say you can't compare them, and basically all the bosses of Generations to the original, cause they are two different situations.
Egg Dragoon: The music and battle is different cause 1) Eggman is pissed and wants to kill you and 2) it's the Werehog fighting, while in Generations Eggman is calmer and it's Hedgehog Sonic, on top of that, Sonic has fought him before and knows what to do, even with the new upgrades and being in his normal form
another example is Prefect Chaos. Adventure version sounds more upbeat and is easier cause (Super) Sonic wasn't trying to actually beat him, but purify him, he knew he could do it without fail. While the Generations version is reversed. Sonic is in his normal form and can't just purify him, he has to actually fight the beast, so it sounds more intense and darker while being a harder and longer fight than before cause now it is.
And probably the best example is the Big Arms on the 3ds versions. Considered the harder classic Sonic boss can be beaten in 40 seconds in the 3ds Generations version. Why? cause (in real life the original was a final boss while the Generations one was the first boss, but game wise) Sonic has seen and knows how to beat'em no problem now, so it's not a problem.
I really don't like the Generations version actually
Nah I agree this was far superior
Good lord I commented this 8 years ago
It took me over 11 years to realize what those cylindrical units Sonic tore off after the first quick time event actually did, as the Egg Dragoon overall seems almost entirely unaffected. They were shield generators. Up until he tore them off, a likely near invulnerable or at least durable energy shield was protecting the eggmobile’s cockpit. But it vanished the moment those cylinders were torn off.
kinda weird that eggman wouldnt put the most important part of his machine somewhere safer, like in his back protected by some metal
@@klpliper I mean this is the same 300 IQ mad scientist who not only builds colossal airships like Final Fortress (which knuckles states makes the Egg Carrier look small in comparison), dragged entire planets across the universe to chain up, and canonically built a freaking Dyson sphere. But also made a robot based entirely upon weaponized slot machine gameplay that attacks itself and even powers up his opponent’s most destructive attack (Egg Dealer). And on another occasion was stupid enough to build a lava and Sonic-Proof machine that is impervious to anything but its own mines that it explicitly directs back into itself as a form of attack. (Lava Reef Act 2 boss in S3&K)
I guess what I’m trying to say is he either let his own hubris get the better of him, or used some arbitrary or ignorant reasoning in his choice of where to put the shield generators. This logic is probably the same kind he employs in this very confrontation where he fires a massive drill rocket making up like a tenth of the machine’s mass at Sonic while he’s directly in front of the vulnerable power core he otherwise keeps at melee level with his enemy.
It's cool how Dark Gaia's power seems to be on the same level, if not stronger, than the Chaos Emeralds. It powered Eggmanland, helped create his machines, and the only power that ever hurt Super Sonic. It seems the only downside is that it drives the user mad as shown with Werehog's viciousness and Eggman out for blood in this fight
i like the idea that dragoon was built as a hard counter to all of sonics abilities, not the werehogs
2:30 sonic giving egg dragoon front shots
I miss the old more darker Eggman Battles where the fights feel like it was a fight for survival...
2:58 Jeez Eggman simmer down!
0:50 this will always be my favorite part. People say werehog Sonic is stiff but what’s this??? Acrobatics???
One of the best Sonic boss themes. Pretty good fight.
Agreed
Agreed
Agreed
One of my favorite boss fights in the whole series
Eggman wasn't fucking around.
04:26 Sonic: ¡¡SO LONG GAY EGGMAN!!
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH
If eggman was ever gonna drop an F-bomb, it'd probably during this fight.
4:18 is the genuine fear in eggman when he’s about to get punched.
Are we going to talk about Eggman's egg mobile glass?
What the actual heck is that made of? it withstood his damn punch and let me remind you his PUNCH BROKE THE STEEL VAULT BACK IN MAZURI
The Werehog's final stage.
There goes one of the best and most diverse gameplays of Sonic, I really wish it could come back...
I kinda miss it too
Same
God I love the cutscene here. Sonic diving full speed to catch Chip and somehow surviving the fall.
For as awesome and dramatic as this fight is, it's the one that makes me _really_ wish Eggman's lines were coming through a megaphone filter.
Eggman wasn't prepared for this kind of fight against sonic hence why he got beat as hard as he did. Egg dragoon was designed to fight against sonic in his regular form and counter his speed but eggman never expected to be fighting the hulk/spiderman/Mr fantastic the hedgehog
This is one awesome way to start the endgame of Sonic Unleashed! Dr. Eggman is arguably at his most serious since Sonic Adventure 2. At this point, he's done D-O-N-E DONE with Sonic and is ready to kill him once and for all. Sonic himself also deserves some mention. He's at his most serious here as well (probably because he knows Eggman really wants him dead, or perhaps his werehog form makes him more serious, probably a little bit of both) and is well aware that his survival and the wellbeing of his friends are on the line and he must go all out too. If Sonic Unleashed was the last Sonic game in the series, then this would have been the final showdown to end all final showdowns! 😎
The fight is easy because Eggman designed it to counter regular sonic, but didn’t account for werehog
1:10 Bro sonic what made you to be this cool 💀💀💀
