Holy Shit!
That was my initial reaction after watching the newest Sonic Unleashed gameplay trailer, which showcases the High Europe stage and Sega’s new Hedgehog Engine at work. Many Sega Nerds have been critical of the game over the past few months, some even saying Sonic runs too fast, and this video probably won’t change anyone’s mind who subscribes to this theory.
While I’m sure many Sonic fans enjoyed the stop and go aspect of the old 2D Sonic games, I always preferred the balls-to-the-wall action that took place by holding down right and hoping for the best - it just seemed more fun to me that way, so I’m really digging what I’ve seen so far from Sonic Unleashed.

As the release of Ryu ga Gotoku Kenzan! quickly approaches from over the distant horizon, Playstation 3 owners who live in the Land of the Rising Sun have been treated to an influx of downloadable content which Sega hopes will show the greatness of their latest big title.
With the release of two separate demos, as well as a trailer which stretches to over four minutes long, it’s clear that Sega is putting a good amount of press and hype into this, the newest game from Toshihiro Nagoshi. Not a surprising fact, as Ryu ga Gotoku Kenzan! has the largest budget of any game the company’s produced since Shenmue on the Dreamcast.
