[@TheeMentorDex]

Swear down the cutscenes for the Wii/PS2 were just straight up recorded from the 360/PS3 and then imported into this version.

[@casualvanilla]

Kind of. I'm pretty sure the cutscenes were made on a computer (like most games), and recorded from there, rather than either the 360 or the PS3. I say this because the scenes in the Wii and PS2 versions have no lag whatsoever (just like a development computer wouldn't), unlike in the HD console versions where the scenes lag whenever the werehog model is on-screen.

[@stargazersdance]

@@casualvanilla There's a difference between CGI and in-game cutscenes. Think of CGI cutscenes as the console/game playing a .mp4 file. While in-game cutscenes are happening in the game and take a bit more out of the console to process.

[@gameandstuff]

@@casualvanilla yeah, also some cutscenes look different from the HD version, so I guess the HD versions of the game wasn't fully completed when they recorded the cutscenes

[@casualvanilla]

@@gameandstuff The Egg Dragoon cutscene is a good example. It's blue on the Wii/PS2 and Sonic's lighting fucks up in one area (he's too bright). It's green on PS3/360 and the lighting is fine.

[@sasasutumi]

no, no frame drop

[@17Kz_]

This game was Released 6 days after i was 1 years old Such a happy feeling i just knew now :)

[@aguywithgames3135]

PS2 Unleashed was my first Sonic game. Despite being inferior to the PS3/Xbox360 version, it was pretty good to play, even felt just as fast (except in some sections, notably in boss battles). Edit: Anyone here that knows about the start-launch boost you can get in this version? So far, no one on YT has ever done it (mostly because the game NEVER tells you that you can).

[@luxxielul]

You're talking about that spin dash? You have to press boost button many times in the just moment (when it says "ONE", exactly). If you do it well, you'll get it

[@themagicalgamer6522]

In the Wii version, if you move your controller just a little, the game tales it as if you were shaking It. So yeah, pretty basic

[@EGsth7]

I played this as a kid and couldn't afford a ps3 lemme say I still really liked it lol. and it looked amazing to me as a 9 year old. I didn't even know how crazy the ps3 version was until I saw a friend play it on xbox and saw hime walking around a village and talking to civilians. blew my mind

[@laurasimmer9612]

This was by far my most favorite Sonic game growing up. I literally beat this game all the way through probably 10 times 🤣🤣 Its crazy looking back... I started out on the Nintendo 64. We've came a long way with graphics & gaming abilities. The graphics for this is incredible considering its PS2... but it was much cooler when I was a kid 😅

[@SurmenianSoldier]

this game went to a platformer to a visual novel. great

[@Gamerboi-id2io]

Dang I didn't even know there was a ps2 version, I'm surprised that the intro cutscene still looks somewhat decent

I played the Wii version first. A friend had the PS2 version. Good times, they didn't want us to miss out on Sonic's world adventure and we didn't. Text-based city exploration aside, this still felt like a grand journey to me. Nowadays, I favor the HD version, but this one is still worth a replay from time to time.

The cutscenes look amazing but the gameplay, and audio quality are alright for the console

[@2fernandoc1]

This game looks like a Dreamcast or PSP game, and it dropped on the PS2 in 2008 (Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3 look next gen for PS2 standards, at least compared to this, and they both came out way before this game and 7th generation gaming in general). And while the Wii version doesn't hurt my eyes, it looks a (graphically) standard GameCube game from 2003. (Again, Sonic Colors looks like a PS3 game running in 480p)

I remember getting this version (Well the identical Wii version) and selling it since I found it to be an underwhelming mess. I saw people playing it on the then Baby KZbin and begged my parents for it for Christmas, not knowing that I wouldn't be getting that version. 8 year old me could not be more disappointed, I stopped playing it after a few days and sold it to my local games store. Fast forward to when I was 15 and I picked up a PS3 superslim 500GB for about £75 with a couple of games. One of which being the PS3 version of Sonic Unleashed and it looked stunning in comparison, its still one of if not the best looking sonic game to date.
