Can You Beat Sonic Unleashed Without Boosting?

[@The_Last_Pac]

The reason you couldn't grab the ledge in cool edge night isn't because you needed to dash jump, its because you cant grab ledges after doing an attack.

[@broly1059]

The amount of times I died to that first jump in the night segment of Eggman Land doing hotdog challenges taught me that one😭

[@EclipseMakesContent]

It is possible to grab a ledge shortly after a specific combo involving the shield. Now that I think about it the shield kinda breaks the game when it comes to the werehog

[@kurtisgibson2929]

@Rrrrer2 the wii doesn't have thouse combos I'm not sure tbh

You DO NOT need to boost in the final boss! Dark Gaias laser attack CAN kill the Snakes that you think Require being boosted into.

[@reivax7022]

Oh shit really? Did you try it?

[@StarlightDX]

@@reivax7022 yes, well no. I mod this game extensively, its something I have noticed can happen

[@reivax7022]

@@StarlightDX ohh i see. I still think you won't be able to beat it without boosting cuz it takes a while for dark gaia to use his lazer attack. Light gaia is just gonna die. I might try and see if it's possible

I appreciate the effort you put into this, super enjoyable to watch!

[@WolfeWrangle]

holy crap dude! Nice seeing you here, love your work!

[@OceanChime]

Few things: cool vid! I didn't know you could skip the air shoes. Second, you could slide into robots instead of just avoiding them, its just a good way to carry momentum too. Third, you can actually drift out of a slide, thats probably whats happening in dragon road. Fourth, you made cool edge night harder than it needed to be. You can grab the ledge by jumping off the water barrel where it spawns. Last, its a shame you couldn't beat perfect dark gaia without boosting. Again, really cool vid 👍

[@Dima064]

Oof, that ending must've felt heartbreaking after so much effort. But it's still a good video with a lot of effort put into it. Reminds me of my days with Sonic only in Sonic Heroes challenge, that prematurely ended fairly quickly, but I still decided to go on for my own interest. No joke, I thought this would be easy, but you proved me wrong. Good job!

[@belmont236]

Incredible job man, sucks you couldn't beat the final boss but you achieved alot here Looking forward to seeing more.

[@haxzie8644]

at the begging of the video I instinctively went "HERE WE... GOO!!"

[@Kimberlysauce]

This seriously does deserve a lot more attention, my eyes were attached to the screen the entire time and very suspenseful, the inevitable defeat was devastating even for just a viewer. You earned a sub!

[@bluehood5298]

watching how he side stepped the purple robots at 11:00 was painful, seeing as how he could have slid into them and both not needed to tank them and still take out the green laser ones

[@evangetapesetsky2640]

not going to lie this is one of the best videos ive watched for sonic unleashed despite the dissapointment in the end, the skills that you've managed are amazing!!

[@orlandofurioso7329]

That chun-nan segment was so creative, very good video dude

[@slimebro5349]

You deserve way more views wtf, keep up the good work!

[@SonicHedgehog1991]

Plot twist, in many media, Super Sonic is counted as a separate character from Sonic so technically you did beat the game as Sonic and the Werehog, you just failed the bonus stage as a hidden character (Super Sonic).

[@Jack_Saint_Archive]

@Hooda the Antagonist Very impressive cope

[@zizo5349]

You can easily do Cool Edge Night by jumping on the barrel where it is. Go to the right as nearing the place where enemies spawn even on the higher platform will spawn them and the wall that blocks you. Grab the ice key, place it, jump on it, jump on the ice lock, and grab the ledge again. No need to carry the barrel anywhere. I am very impressed you figured out a way over those water sections, tho. Never would I have even come close. Kudos.

[@Biddybud]

You are better at this than most people, thank you for doing this game and playing it in a way to make it entertaining

[@SuperPiposaru]

Super awesome job! I absolutely love this game to death, and seeing the ways you got around segments like the Air Boost Shoes area and Holoska were so rad! Fantastic work and here's to good luck on growing this channel out from here!!

@@comedicidiot I was mostly joking with that reply, I do think it’s over exaggerated.

[@TheWitheredSoul]

There is another way to get around the issue with the ledge in Cool Edge Night 1. It involves using either sho-hog-ken, sho-claw-ken or tricky tornado uppercut followed by either the beginning of a Cresent moon strike or hurricane combo. You'll notice in the Cresent moon strike that if you only do inputs up to a certain point of where Sonic would start to do the punches he will instead remain in the air. The same applies for hurricane combo except when his arms are stretched out slashing. During this period of time, hold A and after you come out of the combo, Sonic will be able to grab the ledge. This works for any ledge and the "not being able to grab a ledge after an attack" is a property of all ledges, the aforementioned method allows you to bypass that

[@mickjaguare8437]

Now do generations without boosting and spindashing. Jk great video! Your voiceover was great.

[@sometf2player752]

0:16 it was sonic rush that introduced the boost actually

[@MrFitzonic]

First video I've seen from you, and it was absolute joy! It's been great reliving these memories of the game all the way back in 2008. Your editing skills are also fantastic, as it made the ending all the more heart-wrenching. Keep up the good work! :D

[@nightlydata2181]

This is really good & made me realize cool things I never new bout this game or the other boost games

[@MrBee8000]

I love seeing these types of videos. A lot of the criticisms I've seen towards the Boost style of games is that people hate how the game is "Tied to one button". And I've always just thought: "...Then don't?" Sure it's harder but the Boost is actually minimally required. Outside a few sections, it's pretty optional so if you hate it so much just don't or occasionally use it.

[@Kill_Command]

No offense but that's very dumb opinion

[@Zleun]

this video is really good, and also very funny! i was on the floor from the werehog saying "WHAT?!?" when you couldnt grab the ledge! keep making videos man they are great

Dude I had this on my watch later for a while and for you to feel like the video was "not" worth our while is not true. I would cry putting as much effort into a video like this as much as you have. I recently replaced unleashed to 100% and it took me a while. Thanks for the video and I'll drop a sub. Hope to see more fun challenges like this!

[@therealdk01]

I know this video is old so you probably already know this, but in cool edge night, you do not need to even touch the water barrel. If you just jump on top of where the barrel spawned, you can double jump to get onto the ledge, it’s actually faster than all other methods I’ve tried, but the werehog’s jumping turn radius is high so it is a bit tricky. Regardless, awesome video!

[@swr.nezumi]

I appreciate the Miles Electric showing up whenever footage of a boost or dash is shown

[@demonipo]

I waited too many years to finally hear someone call Unleashed "genre defining"

[@skeletonking27]

So glad you decided to play the most superior version of this game. Fr I don't understand why people play the other ones. The one on the Xbox looks beautiful and in any other version, they made the stages look bad. Plus having a hub is amazing.

woahh amazing job you went suuuupperrrrrrrr far

[@cafequente8252]

10:49 I haven't tested it unleashed, but in generations, you can hit the purple robots into the flying ones by sliding into them. Additionally, side steping lets you get up immediately after sliding, so you don't lose any speed

[@spyrotikus]

This is a really good video! Btw, I really liked that the only curse word you used was for the airplane stage, very warranted lol

[@tobiasrung506]

I already watched this but the second you said “im playing this on PS3” i subbed immediately because i used to play generations and unleashed on my ps3 that broke recently

[@HyperShadow991]

the ps2 version has cheeses in the egg beetle and egg dragoon where you can kill them VERY quickly, aka dragoon has a 7:30 time for s rank and i can kill him in a minute, likwise egg beetle if you do it right you can just keep hitting him via boosts til he goes down

It's amazing how much more fun this game is when you don't boost

[@just_ducky]

There is another way to cross water sections, which is by air dashing just as Sonic touches the water. It's a very slow process that's hard to keep going consistently, but its a great last ditch effort if you lose speed and can't drift. It also allows you to get past the ramp section in Dragon Road Day.

[@Flare-D1]

I like to think Super Sonic gets a pass. In Sonic Adventure, he gains what LOOKS like the boost ability within the final fight. So we could just say the same about the final fight here!

[@MS54905]

A good Werehog challenge would be beating it with only leveling up his combat/combos (just finished that challenge yesterday), it makes the enemies mainly later on SUPER challenging and u would probably use the shield more often than ever lol since u mention is barely usable
