Sup fellas! We have run into some scheduling issues for next Saturday's video, so it'll be pushed back to August. So no video next Saturday, but we'll be back July 30th! Oh and by the way, I'm finally making videos on the rest of the 3D Sonic games. It's about time I get to the last few lol

The Opening cutscene of Unleashed is literally a masterpiece. It has that cartoon-but-yet-still-realistic-ish feeling. Even a pinch of anime.

Fun fact about the wherehog: You can cancel out of any animation during combat by simply just pressing the shield button. This makes for a lot of new faster combo abilities and you should look at the skill tree to find more of the other combos and combine them with your shield cancels to kill enemies way faster + get way more points due to the higher combo counts

About the act thing, the tutorial act in the beginning is actually act 1, and day and night separately have their own act numbers, confusing but yeah, also probably wouldn't count crashes because playing on series x seems to introduce some extra issues with that so yeah.

Hold up. Aint u Nathaniel B

Aint you Nathaniel b?

Ain’t u Nathaniel b 🤨

Wait… ain’t you Nathanial B

No lie I actually like almost everything about the werehog, it’s design, it’s purpose, and the concept. I honestly don’t think the werehog is that bad nor was it unnecessary. It’s one of the most interesting and badass gimmicks in a Sonic game.

NB: "The nighttime stages are a nice break from the regular stages" Also NB for most of the video: *Talking about how the nighttime stages are the worst thing to ever be created*

I don’t care what anyone says, even with the warehog and the medals and all that stuff, I still love this game! Edit: the 360/PS3 version is better than the Wii version

Ain’t you Nathaniel b?

Sonic Unleashed is the Super Paper Mario of the Sonic series: great game overall, but falls a little flat due to inconsistent pacing as a result of the Warehog stages. If these stages were apart of a different franchise, they probably would have been better. But because the main selling point of Sonic games is speed, the nighttime stages make the game much more of a drag than it should be.

This is definitely my favorite sonic game of all time. Something about this game really special to me. I don’t even mind the werehog levels that much either, especially when you level up and get more combos

I like the 360/PS3 version of Unleashed more, but I think the Wii version is better for newcomers, since the Werehog gameplay is simplified and the Boost stages have less do-or-die moments. I feel that if you combined the best parts of both, we’d have an absolutely stellar Sonic game. Edit: Also, how could you talk about Sonic Unleashed and not even mention the incredible soundtrack? It’s not only one of the best Sonic soundtracks, but one of the best video game scores ever made.

I've been waiting for a Sonic Unleashed Triggered and Mind Blowing videos for years now. YEARS!!! And now it's finally here. I honestly would've been on a rant for much longer about the positives on the game and still bring up my negatives for the game and show my understanding for it but would try to emphasize more on my positive vibes on it as it is my favorite Sonic game of all time if not also my first Sonic game I played as a kid when we only knew of its existence on the Wii. And to be honest, the difficulty variety in versions is nice as the Wii and PS2 versions are much easier but still gave a young and new player such as myself a challenge whereas it's easy for me now as an adult. But now that I've also played the XBox 360 version of it, it feels more directed towards older and experienced players who want a challenge as it is very difficult. Also, I know that you mentioned the QTE, but I'm surprised you didn't even bring up the worst one yet, the final QTE of the game. Also, surprised that Dark Gaia was never even mentioned for such an insane design and concept about a literal god of darkness and destruction tearing up the planet and having the most insane design ever in a Sonic game. But I can't continue ranting any longer or I'd be here all day.

I didn't realize until the credits rolled that what Bathaniel was doing is the same thing that Chip did with every character they met in the game's cutscenes

You can’t handle me

Aint you nathainel b?

What I love about Sonic unleashed is its fantastic cinematic opening and it's presentation and it's fun gameplay. Also, I love how almost dark it is and that's what I really like about most games is having a little bit of a dark in them. Overall, Sonic unleashed is a cinematic masterpiece 👍🏻

You can’t handle me. Hold up, ain’t you Nathaniel B?

I don’t think we talk enough about how pretty this game looks for 2008. It looks like a PS4 and Wii U game

Aint you Nathaniel b⁉️

The only problem I had with the Werehog was that his levels were too long.

Sonic Unleashed is truly the definition of underrated. I'm glad nowadays people are showing this game the respect that it deserves. Also I really like the Werehog levels, fight me!

I love when he says "The intro cutscene is the best part of the game"

Hol up…………………………… Ain’t u Nathaniel 🅱️??

Glad to see that the wii version is finally getting the respect it deserves

I'm prob an outcast for saying this, but I remember liking the night stages more as a kid than the day stages. Especially the bosses. Even weirder, I actually loved doing eggman land over and over again.

In my opinion, I really love the werehog, it’s a really good gimmick, and even though the medal collecting is kinda a pain, I love this game so much and is one of my favourite sonic games

I really like unleashed. The day time stages were fun for me (even though most of my game overs were from it) and the werehog stages were as good as the day time stages for me. The music is amazing, and I like all the cutscenes in the game. The hub world was good and I liked searching for the hidden medals in it. As for the medals, I didn't think they were bad. But I guess thats just me since I like exploring levels, although I didn't get that much medals in day time stages since the main point of the stages were to go fast. But I did get a lot from the hub world and night stages. So I didn't have to do a lot of levels for 120 sun medals. And for Eggman land I really liked it even with the difficulty. The final boss was fine, and the music just made it better. Now I'm not gonna overly praise it as "The best sonic game ever!" since I have only played a tad bit of generations and colors and have never played sa1 and sa2 (although I do plan on playing them). I respect if you think that its bad, or if its just meh, because everyones opinion is subjective, and we shouldn't be toxic towards another just because their opinion is common, part of a bandwagon, isn't part of a bandwagon, or a negative opinion of what you like. I know this was a drastic change from what I was saying about unleashed, but I just really needed to say this.

I don’t know if this is heresy to say, but Nathaniel does a real nice job at the split screen when Bathaniel is there. It’s very natural (the end one at the table is great example) and looks like a real conversation. I mean, uh, why wouldn’t it! They’re both real people! For sure, uh, cough, cough.

2:55 I know the pain. One time I had a S rank run going in that very stage and in final titan fight, the enemy's jump attack knocked Sonic over the small fance ending any hope for a S rank. Also here's a useful combo to know, XYY+LB. Pressing LB with the right timing will cause Sonic to clip through walls and this can be used to cut massive sections in the stages

0:23 actually shadow survived the fall. in shadow the hedgehog egg man said one of his robots found him (said in the final boss) and he was all fine, only thing shadow lost was his memory

Am I the only one that enjoyed Eggman land? I felt that the shift between day and night in the middle was really cool for a first playthrough. Although maybe it could be cut to half it's length. Although a long final stage with multiple parts makes sense to me similar to Cannon's Core. Note: although I make such a comparison Cannon's Core is far superior and the only means of comparison between the too are the length and how they combine segments with different gameplay styles.

I grew up playing this game the only other sonic games I played alongside this game was Secret Rings and Heroes. I would definitely love to go back to this game some day though!

00:43 it’s act 2 because you already played act 1 After the cutscenes when you meet chip. And 00:52 is act 1 for the werehog. Just to clear that up

5:16 That is no joke, the exact reason I defend the Werehog Stages. I am one of few who will actually defend them until I Die.

Actually playing through this game for the first time. Enjoying it so far… for the most part. 💙

3:48 his scream man.

Not gonna lie, I always thought the werehog form was really cool as a kid and I still think it's cool now. It just looks badass and he can STRETCH HIS ARMS LIKE LUFFY! How can you not love that?!

No matter what you say, I will stand by the fact that Sonic Unleashed is the best Sonic game ever made, and my favorite video game ever. Even with the werehog and medal collecting that I actually found fun

Sonic Unleashed has a case of “good-after-a-couple-years-itis”

I replayed this game for the first time since it came out this summer, and the biggest thing that makes me angry is the depth perception in the werehog stages since there is no shadow when you're jumping from platform to platform

Glad he took a look at the Wii version. I like the 360/PS3 version, but the Wii version is the one I had the most memories with.

THIS IS MY ESCAPE, IM RUNNING THROUGH THIS WORLD-

Well now that i look back on it, it wasn't as great as some people said it was, but then again it was hated on release until people changed thier mind and said this game was good after forces was released, and i must say this game is really on the middle, it's not too great, but it's not too bad . (PS; I agree eggmanland is the worst stage in the entire world, i was stuck on a single stage for 2 years straight...)

Want some chocolate? 🍫

Sonic unleashed November 18th 2008 November 18th 2022 Happy 14th early anniversary And this is my very first Sonic game I ever own For xbox 360 console And 14th years later still have it on my shelf

I just played through this game for the first time. I got Unleashed and Adventure at the same time thinking I would like Adventure a lot more but I ended up liking Unleashed a lot better. Day time stages are fun and the night time stages have some amazing music and the levels can be pretty fun sometimes. The soundtrack is my 2nd favorite Sonic soundtrack of all time.

“I got glitches in me britches” - Nathaniel Bandy 2022

This video should of been called “How Sonic Unleashed triggers you”

7:04 that Bruh Is Flawless

This was my first and only Sonic game, and it’s so damn nostalgic. I remember coming home from elementary school everyday playing this game and I loved it.. and it was the Wii version. I never knew how much I was missing out on! 😂

"The Intro Cutscene is the best part of the game." I always laugh so hard at that. On Bandy clips you should make a compilation of all the Mario Sonic Olympics videos where that line is said. That would be awesome!

Truly the worst part about Unleashed is that it hasn't gotten an official PC port (I mean I haven't played it but I'm pretty sure people want that)

The one good thing about the Wii version of the night stages is they’re short as. To get an S rank you typically need to finish within 8-10 mins, depending on the level, and that’s lenient. You can finish way faster! But they’re still fun I like night stages

How could you not have mentioned the music and environment design as a plus for these games? I think those aspects might be some of the best in the series.

Earlier in Sonic Heroes Triggered, "No Sonic Stage should last more than 10 Minutes". Sonic the Werehog appears implying that Sonic Unleashed had the same problem. And now I see why since I didn't play the game and only saw the cutscenes earlier some time ago.

I love these “good and bad” videos because it gives us mind blowing and triggered in one video. Keep this up NB I’m loving this new series

Sonic Unleashed really reminds me of Pokemon Black/White because of how hated it was upon release, and only now it's getting love.

1:40 nathaniel bandy jumpscare

7:17 Oh yeah, Chip thanks for reference. "Want some chocolate"

"If Shadow dies in Adventure 2, then how does Sonic survive this?" Well... you ARE playing a game from years after that was retconned tbf... lol

Sonic fans on their way to defend every single aspect of this game:

4:44 I hope you know this is act 1. Right? Or were u just acting annoyed on purpose?

0:22 Actually, Chip's necklace/bracelet has this orb used to activate the gaia temples, and you can see that after the opening, the orb surrounding sonic is the same shade as the bracelet which stopped sonic's fall for a second, letting him live

Eggmanland left scars in my soul…

real og if u knew him before the meme

Haven't played this game in long time but watching this video made me want to play this again soon. Thanks for uploading this video and good skit btw!

The unleashed soundtrack is one of my favorites The unwiished completely skipped Savannah Citadel Day and night and Skyscraper Scamper Day and night Eggmanland or Crimson carnival is better on the wii Version Same goes for the final boss as well

The Wii version in my opinion is a lot better than the Xbox 360 edition

I swear to god, this "Good and Bad" series has basically become the logical replacement for the TRIGGERED and MIND BLOWING series. BRING THEM BACK

3:16 has this happened to many people? Because I swear everytime I play this it ALWAYS HAPPENS!

3:59 for the hotdog version, imagine that but you only have 1 life. Now that is pain right there

You would never get the "want some chocolate" joke if you never played sonic unleashed

Fun fact: If you know how a stage works, every stage goes faster than you think. Eggman Land took me about 17 minutes when doing the Hot Dog Stand challenges. But even I found some issues as I played the game after years of not playing it. Including glitches. I played this on a Series X, I should mention.

Despite the flaws, Unleashed is still my favorite Sonic game tbh.

The egg dragoon boss(specifically the xbox 360 version) is the best in unleashed, if not one of the best in all of the sonic games

Aint you Nathanial B

Hey Nathaniel, I have a few ideas for future ranking videos: Ranking every Zelda game Ranking every Metroid game Ranking every Crash Bandicoot game Ranking every 3D Sonic game

I love sonic unleashed. It is my favorite sonic game of all time. The opening cutscene is a m a s t e r p i e c e. The warehog isn’t bad as well.

After all these years he is finally talking about this game!

The music in this game is the best nostalgia. "Endless Possibilities" is the theme including the Final Boss Dark Gaia and the stage music's themselves oh they are mmmmmmmmm!!!

This is my favorite Sonic Game hands down

Combat normally helps when you diversify you combos

In my opinion sonic unleashed is one of my favorite games of all time I don't care what everyone says about the werehog stages I like the new change

Are the “The Good and Bad of (insert game here)” replacing the “How (insert game here) TRIGGERS You” and “How (instert game here) is MIND BLOWING”?

When I see this game I just think about when my dad watched me play it that maybe doesn't sound like much but my dad have NEVER liked video games and he just watched me play it and looked like he liked it

I played the Wii version before I played the HD version, and in my opinion I think there both great games. They both have there flaws, some more than other, but in the end I enjoyed both of them equally. I’m always for some modern boost Sonic gameplay in the fastest Sonic game I’ve ever seen. I’m also good for some slower pace of the Wii version, and find some good routes and boost right through them to get that S rank

There’s endless possibilities with what’s happening this December. I’m intrigued with how well Frontiers will do.

0:44 Tutorial stage is Windmill Isle Day Act 1, Werehog mission is Windmill Isle Night Act 1

Why did no one tell me Nathaniel was gonna talk about the best sonic game ever

2:22 Subway is bad..?

1:34 nathaniel bandy jumpscare 😭😭😭😭

What a coincidence I just got Sonic Unleashed on my Xbox 360 yesterday.

YES! IVE BEEN WAITING FOR AN UNLEASHED VIDEO!!!
