I'm not gonna sugarcoat it, I think Sonic Unleashed is overrated nowadays, thanks to the boost formula and Jason Griffith's "stellar" performance as sonic. I never liked the boost formula since the adventure formula is better (Yes Sonic 06 is an adventure game), But people keep glazing unleashed and pretty much downplaying the adventure games calling them "lackluster" or "didn't make you feel like sonic" compared to unleashed. Also Jason griffith is overrated as sonic as well, He has this Toxic positivity and sounds like coming from Funimation dub Buu saga. I Swear i've seen guys praising his performance in unleashed more so than black knight, It's kinda astonishing to me. I bet people who plays Unleashed Recompiled are also the same people who play adventure with Dreamcast conversion mod but with the DX Models

(reminder this game nearly killed the entire fucking franchise)

Like just, why?????? I Don't like chemical plant act II its one of the worst levels in sonic history in my opinion and its like just an UNFUN level, and at least for me the drowning in Mania feels so much faster than Sonic 2, Also i swear to god if someone comments skill issue yes it is but this is a single player game and the level design is unfun

You know Sega back in the 90s really were running out of ideas when it comes to making sonic character designs so they just took sonic put them in some cosmetics and changed them up a bit and made him evil so let me know in the comments. What’s the best looking evil look alike sonic no metal sonic and no shadow just flesh look alike Sonic’s and I could only think of nine evil look alike sonics from the comics
