Sonic Unleashed – PlayStation 3
Dr. Robotnik is up to no good yet again, but this time he’s really got Sonic by the hedgehog balls. After stealing all of Sonic’s Chaos Emeralds and capturing Sonic, Eggman casts Sonic from his spaceship down onto a planet where he just unleashed a giant villain known as Dark Gaia. Can Sonic restore the power to the Chaos Emeralds in time to stop the Eggman from completing his diabolical misdeeds?
Sonic Unleashed sees a new side of Sonic. During the day Sonic is his normal self, spin-dashing his way through loop-de-loops and bashing badniks, but the night turns Sonic into something even he’s not used to: a Werehog! With razor-sharp claws and arms that stretch 4 times their length, Sonic finds himself destroying enemies with his fists rather than his wit and speed.
