Sonic Unleashed - Wii - Dark Gaia/Perfect Dark Gaia

[@cyberdarkenddragon8425]

Imagine they combined the wii and Xbox version like first you get past the shield and then you take out dark Gaia’s eyes that would be so cool

[@Mrmanvod]

Then it will be a true final battle

[@Sonic62920]

I know I'm not the only one who prefers a round of Punch-Out to 3 SLOW AS HELL crawls toward quick time events

[@yshrenianknight2516]

I prefer this to tge ps3's anticlimactic press x to win

[@paperluigi6132]

Maybe make a dash towards DG that’s 50% longer than the one from the PS3, and then you go to the fighting event from the Wii

[@Reilly-K]

This boss fight was half my childhood.

[@yshrenianknight2516]

Same. I remember it being a lot harder and more infuriating. Maybe i was just bad at keeping the wii remote stable lol

[@alvisceratortheultimate1660]

Same; at first this boss was hard for me, but as I kept playing, it was a lot more easier. I have the PS2 version by the way.

[@ryansanders5362]

Phase 1: pretty fun actually Phase 2: alright Phase 3: impossible (when I played it as a kid at least)

[@flames222666]

I couldnt do phase 3 either. When I was I think 7? I went back to it when I was 11 and beat it with ease though

[@chepathebrawller6297]

I was trying for two months beat him

[@Mrmanvod]

It took me 2 days

[@eternallight1362]

Same story here but the hd version is some what better

[@trippiedayz8141]

I would always die trying to beat him

[@ProjectElementsOEAB]

Bruh, if the Wii and HD version devs had worked together on at least the final boss, imagine how insane a combined version of both would be. Where you go after dark Gaia in the Gaia Colossus, and once you get there you have to fight him. Then once you do that you have to go through a sonic section rinse and repeat three times. Then once you finish that you have to take down his shield, then you save chip, and fight dark Gaia as super sonic, taking down his eyes one by one. Just imagine that

[@orion9630]

Exactly! This would be amazing!! I’ve been thinking this ever since I found out about the two separate versions of this fight!

[@arahabakihakai4177]

This would be hell. These parts are hard enough separated

​@@arahabakihakai4177 oh yes. But the payoff for beating it all would feel amazing.

[@cybranify]

Anyone notice that perfect dark gaia is the only thing so far that decreases the amount of rings super sonic has by harm. This maybe the strongest thing in the entire sonic series.

[@cybranify]

nah, he flat out knocked the super out of him

[@SonicTheCutehog]

cybranify What about the icicles in Sonic 3's (Original Sonic 3, not Sonic 3&K) Ice Cap? They knock out the rings from Super Sonic.

[@cybranify]

The Cutehog Team do they now, i was never hit by them as super sonic

[@cybranify]

The Cutehog Team have to test that later

[@SonicTheCutehog]

cybranify I didn't either, but I saw a video that went through the differences of Sonic 3 and Sonic 3&K. That was one of the most notable differences that the original Sonic 3 had that was patched out of Sonic 3&K.

[@thehyliangamer100]

When I was 10 or whenever it was, the Super Sonic part of the boss was super difficult to me. I was playing the game for about 6 hours in one day before I beat it. I then came back to it 4 years later and beat it one try... :/

[@GoldConnor]

Ya... same

[@arcK9]

[@adammalkovich187]

I nailed this boss back when I first got this version of Unleashed. Though the final phase looked cheesy in its execution, it's still extremely heroic to know that the lesser Wii/PS2 version had you go head to head with Perfect Dark Gaia in an up close match with Super Sonic. The HD version could have used that for the final phase of the final boss, instead of just finishing him off with one boost to the eye.

[@damianpearson1712]

I honestly feel that this version was WAY too easy. I love these fights as they are, but could you imagine if they incorporated both versions in some way? For example, it could have started by trying to approach him like in the HD Version as you dodge the fireballs and lazers along the way. Once you reach him, you slug it out like in this Version. After a third of Dark Gaia's health depletes, carry on with the QTEs and the running sequences. Rinse and repeat until all of his health is depleted. As for Perfect Dark Gaia, it could start by approaching him like in the HD Version, and breaking the shield. Afterwards, the QTEs would commence as normal until where the final blow takes place. Instead of using Super Sonic to hit the big eye and have that be it, have Super Sonic take out ALL 7 of the eyes after all the QTEs involving setting the Gaia Colossus free of his grip. Once Super Sonic pokes out all 7 eyes, the fight would end. If this sounds like a much better what-if fight, let me know! :D

[@thelognerrator]

i agree

[@ariezon]

it is sound better bro, and actually fantastic

[@Splatomix]

It sounds better... but the fight would be a bit too long. ^-^"

[@ariezon]

that's the point, it would be so much better

[@catwitdreads]

I thought this was hard because the red target for his eyes rarely show and it keeps doing the attack im bad at

[@GangstaKenny10]

ima flat out say my opinion thats bound to be flamed by wii/ps2 haters. Man i thought this boss fight was better than the 360/PS3 cause ur actually fighting dark gaia instead of the shield.

[@brandommario2]

Gameplay wise the Xbox controls were annoying when I first played it at a friends hoist I couldn't find out how to homeing attack then he told me it was jump then the x button

[@BlackBeartic229]

GangstaKenny10 There are some parts that are better. If the fight with it's perfect form didn't suck shit in a 2d position so badly then i'd be more inclined to agree

[@foreverkurome]

It does look easier.

[@Matrix-bk8wo]

this is the version of ps2, but this version (ps2 and wii) are better

[@ragonhill]

wtf the wii version of this final boss is too easier i preffer the ps3 version it's more epic

[@lucasfox2494]

This version of the final boss is more Super Sonic style with Super Sonic losing rings as time passes instead of having a life bar.

[@aransfilms9949]

hyodou issei I agree it is a good final boss that finishes the sonic game that put him on his feet again (until BOOM knocked him down again)

[@Gameboynitro]

Nothing like having a tutorial during a final boss fight.

[@SoulsGamin]

I freaking LOVE Dark Gaia. Throwing hands on this dude was so satisfying. With the argument of which is better I say this: If they combined the shield part, and this charging part AFTER you break the shield while hes still shooting at you would have been SICK.

[@SabeNo-rh7mb]

Yeah, I gotta agree. As much as I love the HD version, it's Super Sonic fight is pretty underwhelming compared to the Dimps version, looking back now.

[@darkspinesonic5642]

I liked this fight over the Xbox/Ps3 one. It feels more "Super Sonic" to me. My only complaint with the Wii version is that you boost in sections and for a few seconds instead of holding the boost down and running as long as you had gauge. Oh yea, Gamecube controller for the win!

[@neptune9647]

that's my only problem with with the wii/ps2 version. ( i have the wii ver.)

[@SonicVGamer]

Well I kinda don’t mind about this kind of boost and btw, I don’t want to think of it as a boost, I’d like to think of it as a sonic burst. so if you are complaining about it, JUST KEEP SHAKING THE DAMN REMOTE

[@smoothsoulbrotha]

Yeah, I like both versions too. ^^ I was slightly annoyed that Super Sonic didn't have a ring drain in the HD version, but it still worked out fine. I mean technically he's not supposed to lose rings while getting hit either, which both versions do. But to fully compare both versions does the game injustice. I mean it would be like comparing both versions of Sonic Colors or both versions of Sonic Generations. I agree! Both versions have great qualities.

[@SHADOWDOESROBLOX678]

you know sonic colors (ds) copied almost every mechanic from sonic unleashed (Wii or ps2) in the super sonic department, I mean look at when sonic is dashing into one of dark Gaia's eyes compare to the nega mother wisp fight and tell me they don't look the same!

[@SharksandDinos]

Here is where what I think would make this boss better. . . First: You as the Gaia Colossus must dash to Dark Gaia while he throws Earth chunks to you and you either punch or block to defend yourself. After you pass them, you get to your first punch out mission which consist of it swatting at you. After the punch out mission you go through the first Sonic mission to save chip before Dark Gaia charges himself and fires an immense amount of energy. . Second: You resume to the punch out mission, but this time you are further than him a bit because he grabs a chunk of Earth rocks to bash you with, doing a bit more damage than he would swatting at you. You either defend yourself, (but you still receive some damage) or dodge the hand with a rock while Dark Gaia tries to hit you with it. Then you punch him when open to attacks, but before he can use rock or swat you again. Finally, you go into the next Sonic mission because Dark Gaia tries to attack Chip again. . Third: You go into another punch out mission, but this time Dark Gaia tries to use two rocks and use them like boxing gloves and you'll take twice the damage if you get hit with them twice (even if you defend yourself). If you manage to break or dodge both, you can get a punch or dodge Dark Gaia's swats before he resumes to hitting you. After you defeat him, you go into the final Sonic mission to save Chip once again. . . Perfect Dark Gaia . First: You dash towards Perfect Dark Gaia as Super Sonic while collecting rings to fill up your health bar before killing the snake tentacles to disable the shield. . Second: Perfect Dark Gaia would then try to kill Chip by grabbing onto him and blasting him away or into pieces. You would have to use your quick time events to get 6 of his arms off the Gaia Colossus. Finally, you as the Gaia Colossus, must hold off the blast of energy he uses against you. After you do that, he punches Perfect Dark Gaia. . Third: You as Super Sonic have to fight off Perfect Dark Gaia in a punch out mission again, but you have to dash to one of his eyes. However, the middle eye would be invincible until you defeat the other eyes first. Even if you aim for one of the eyes, you still got to dodge floating rocks. After you defeat Dark Gaia, your results show before a cut scene of its death.

Well, I'm glad you enjoyed it. haha I didn't like the Super Sonic part in that one because Sonic ends up being so small on the screen and doesn't actually fight Dark Gaia; Chip is the one who does most of the work. All Sonic does is boost toward Dark Gaia and take down a shield. You then defeat the boss with action commands. It looks cool but I like the fact that you actually fight Dark Gaia in the Wii version like a Super Sonic fight should work. It was simplistic and straight to the point. ^^

[@DrScrubbington]

Never played this version, but does anybody think that the perfect dark gaia of this version is a LOT like the Nega Mother Wisp from Sonic Colors DS? (I can't be the only one who played that version too) Maybe it's because they were both made by Dimps? It seems like Sonic games like to catch on each other

The Sonic sections in this version I think are better since there’s no time limit like in the 360/PS3 version. Also the 2nd phase is much better as it’s more of an actual boss than just a series of strict QTE’s. Also you get a rank the 1st time you play it.

[@OnlyGoken]

Ugh... out of every Sonic Final Boss Battle, this one is one of my least favorites. The fact that Super Sonic can't break through meteors is dumb, something he did with rocks in the intro to Sonic CD. It could've at least been 2 or 3 hits, and you get hit the 2nd or 3rd time you go back. And when he attacks, and you have to be in a specific spot for you to not get hit. i hate that attack. It's not hard, just dragged out, annoying as hell, and tedious.

[@M0n0chr0me]

The Xbox 360/PS3 Version is the canon version of the boss fight and game.

[@OnlyGoken]

Makes sense, considering the PS3/360 version's the more complete version of the game in a way

[@OnlyGoken]

***** But they are the same character, just from different time periods. Classic Sonic and Modern Sonic are basically the same exact character. Modern Sonic is more powerful than Classic Sonic, which shows that Modern Sonic is as powerful as Classic Super Sonic since the two have green eyes. Their personalities are the exact same. They're both cocky and snarky but will save their friends & care about them if something happens.

[@jaydenyugi9034]

LSSJOrangeLightning I disagree. I much prefer the HD version final boss mainly because Super Sonic is given a lot of free space to float around and evade stuff. The boss fight is more open and I love the cinematic feel of the fight. Apart from the Gaia Colossus punching part, I find the Wii version too clunky and cramped. Feels way too static and limited. I can understand why some people may prefer the final boss due on Wii due to it being easier but it’s nowhere near as interesting or engaging as the HD version.

[@Overhazard]

The GamePad is a Wii U controller.

[@Overhazard]

***** No, the standard term is "controller." "Game pad," as two words, is a less common but acceptable term though. The Wii U controller with the screen is officially the "Wii U GamePad," and Nintendo has trademarked both that and "GamePad."

[@Overhazard]

***** Hmm, interesting. I've grown up always calling them "controllers," but I've never been part of PC gaming. Everyone else I've spoken to calls them controllers too, like "NES controller," "Gamecube controller" or "PS2 controller." Maybe it's a regional thing. Also, upon looking it up, it looks like only "Wii U" is trademarked. However, the description for it on the official site calls it the "Wii U(TM) GamePad controller." The "G" and "P" are always capitalized.

[@tarheelpro87]

If they mixed together the final boss from the Wii/PS2 (SD) version and Xbox 360/PS3 (HD) version, it would be perfect. Here’s a step by step of how i’d want it to go: 1. Flying towards Dark Gaia (HD version, but we don’t repeat this section, unless you die before next part) 2. Fist fight against Dark Gaia as the Colossus (SD version) 3. Dark Gaia grabs the Colossus during the fight 3 times, and each time we hit one of it’s eyes as Sonic (HD version) 4. After the third hit, Dark Gaia becomes Perfect Dark Gaia (both versions) 5. We take down the shield as Super Sonic before Chip gets defeated by Dark Gaia (HD version) 6. Take out Dark Gaia’s other eyes (SD version) 7. We do the quick time event to free the Gaia Colossus from Dark Gaia’s hands, and do the x60 button spam (HD version) 8. Do one last hit on Dark Gaia’s last eye (HD version) Pretty much changing/swapping from the SD and HD version’s way of doing this boss fight. I did like some of the QTEs since it does allow the fight to look more cinematic, which helps me enjoy it more personally. Even though i’m not always a big fan of Quick Time Events where you spam one button (mainly in games where that constantly happens)

This boss, I remember staying up till 3 am fighting this thing

[@ikagura]

Same

[@vertex1933]

Nah. The PS3/360 version is still the best

[@TheNightmareAngelYT]

Someone put Undefeatable over this

[@mattrdx4830]

ps3 verrsion is better

[@dynomitegoesboom8119]

The Mathew Yup

[@dynomitegoesboom8119]

Well actually I played 360 because it's has better fps even though the PS3 was supposed to be 60 fps and the 360 stuck at 30 fps

[@Explosion_Mage]

Man, looking back, Dark Gaia is nightmare fuel.

[@Drawica]

@ShadowTheVamphog The song...is this boss' main theme...you heard it on this game...

[@FrankelBenjamin]

It was cool when you can switch back with daytime and nighttime in one level, but if you get a game over, you have to start all over. The flying with Gaia Colossus was annoying, but hands down, the Super Sonic part was AWESOME in PS3/360!

[@Jaceblue04]

Has anyone else noticed that most of the final boss themes of the 3D Sonic games are the same as the games' main themes if not remixes or alternate renditions thereof?

[@JayzeZeddrick]

Jaceblue04 yes, but they still sound amazing

[@shadowsfangirl100]

omg you make it look sooooo easy for the perfect dark gaia

[@nathanreeder8076]

Hey man thank for the help I just completed the entire game 😀😀😀😀😀

[@Overhazard]

You're welcome.

[@grillba]

@BigSlickOne lol i dont actually get why sonic has to go through the same area again just to make it in time and collect rings

[@aporoid]

and why are there robots on chip's gaia thingy? it's like he's infested with fleas...

[@KaosKontroler]

That 1 dislike was Dr. Eggman because Sonic lived after this battle

[@Karpnado]

Why is there trick rings on Chip? Anyone notice that? Lolz

[@xREIxKIRAx]

@N1SonicsFan note: chip isn't dead, he's sleeping. don't forget this happens every 1000 years but right now, they're doing the fight early because eggman woke up dark gaia.

[@dreamybowser1724]

Ahh the memories I’ve always have struggle with this boss

[@BigKlingy]

I had trouble with the last part at first, but then realised you need to take advantage of Super Sonic's massive acceleration in order to dodge things. Just keep moving. And I much prefer this version of the fight to the 360 version. In this one, you're actually fingting Dark Gaia itself, and not just its shield. Also, I'm not to fond of a final boss consisting entirely of reaction commands.

[@1000π]

At 1:30 that is the only time you do that move in the PS2 and Wii version.

[@joe88john]

I will say that while this is more fun to play, the Xbox 360 version looks a hell of a lot better but that's because the 360 is more powerful than the Wii. So your strategy for Perfect Dark Gaia is to keep 40 rings and then go in for the hit? I'm just wandering because I can't get beat him. I've gotten him to open up his final eye twice but never got the lock on. That multi-slash attack kills me!

[@jalenwilliams7067]

I can believe just sonic just defeated Dark Gia/ Perfect dark Gia in the blink of an eye.

[@tcfreez8965]

I got this game in 2010 and I still cant beat it to this day

[@voltekka47]

Didn't you know that you don't need to wait for Dark Gaia to attack so that you're able to attack him?You can try to hit his eyes right away as long as you have some Boost builded up and the red mark appears on one of his eyes.

[@sircampbelltenson7297]

Ahh this brings back memories...A young me saying for ages to buy the wii version..Getting home after i bought it and i absolutely loved it..Then i saw the 360/ps3 version..

[@FeatherWings78]

@Overhazard Did you by anychance knock Dark Gaia's Shots right back at him?

[@jufdjoshuigashgjkdfs]

How did Eggmans robots get on the Gaia Collisis

[@sonicvega8285]

When sonic is boosting to gaias eye, it's the same boosting sound in generations

[@navitalksalot4642]

The only thing I don't like about this is that you have to do the ring boost phase, it's pretty tricky for me.
