And PLEASE don't say controls where an issue, every game review I hear is "control control control control", well guess what, nothing is perfect. This is nothing against you Oni this is against the job in general, people are welcome to they're own opinions, but the bottom line is I hate reviewers, reviewers are a plague on games, it causes negativity and bias opinions. EVERYTHING deserves a chance, its NOT RIGHT to criticize a game, or a movie, or a book until you actually play it, watch it or read it, Otherwise your just a nag in the peanut gallery.

Oh for f--k sakes...the controls in a game are an issue. If something is too sensitive or unresponsive is IS an issue. Stating something like that is pure ignorance. The controls in a game are the single most important aspect in the entire thing. It's like having a beautiful chocolate cake, but then you can't even eat it because it tastes like crap. Also, something can be judged by "first impression", it's how things even get approved. The initial presentation of a game can be what makes someone buy the game, and if it looks like crap I'm probably not going to buy it.

Going all fanboy on me isn't exactly making your defence of Sonic all that good.

Sonic carrying a sword may be different but if your thought is "run and spin attack, then its not really that different considering Sonic spins using the sword. Caliburn may have been a talking sword but whats more annoying, a talking companion or Sonic just talking to himself.

So I guess that the fact that horrible level design and unresponsive moves mean little to you?

To simply complain whether Sonic had a Werehog form or a sword is utter rubbish, people who don't enjoy platforming have no right to complain about the Werehog to begin with, and as for the constant smash attacking, I'll bet whoever complained about that never even attempted the combos, I know every enemy can be killed by simply spamming but it can also lead to death.

Oh no. You did not just go and call a beat-em-up a "platformer", did you? Also, what is this "no right" bullsh-t? I've been playing platformers since I was 6. There are good and bad "platformers" out there. It's like having to rate an anime 4/5-5/5 all the time just because it's anime.

reviewers are a plague on games, it causes negativity and bias opinions.

Oh, and they're doing something different to what people who aren't fans of the game are doing?

if we just had regular Sonic I would guarantee you, people would be complaining that there wasn't enough in Sonic Unleashed.

You haven't played the DS games have you?
