also i would like to add if this is true as well than they would have made sonic for the wii for roughly 2mil and have it make up for the lost of sonic hd, which is very poor business practice on something that wont ever make money back.

 

 Well according to VGchartz

Sonic Unleashed on Wii has 750000 in sales.

Sonic unleahsed PS3 + 360 has....750000 in sales.

Also consider that Wii version sells for 10 less.

Just something to think about.

The ps360 version will make its money back if it hasn't already. Wii will make a huge profit. All wii owners seem to LOVE the Wii version over everything else.

Isnt that an everybody wins situation?!?

erm, maybe they launch 10 bucks more but that is not the case most place I go. SU like the lego games is 49.99 for the PS360.

Disolitude- you are stuck in your old way of gaming, it is obvious you dont see that graphics are not everything, they are now a luxory for most genres (besides Sim racing, and maybe certain FPS games)

I love great graphics, that is why I have a PS3, but I also enjoy fun games that dont my entire time and devotion to them. I like my Wii because it is more FUN than my PS3, the PS3 is cool though, I play COD4 and WaW alot on it, and MGS4 is good too. But I would buy a Wii version of a game if the controls were done right, that is why I am considering SU Wii over the PS3, I doupt if you had to pick one you would go with the lesser graphics one, really in most cases.

 


If you think sonic unleashed on the ps360 is only a pretty face while everything else is crap you are mistaking. Visuals is one of many aspects where its better. Gameplay is ebtter on the 360 too...

Wii owners tend to hide behind the whole "its more fun so its superior" argument.  That applies in some cases as motion controls kick ass where they fit in properly. But in Sonic dude? Sonic level dont call for any motion controlls what so ever. They are unecessary and frustrating. I dont want to shake my hand every time I need to do a dash attack...I want to run fast. This is the whole appeal of sonic...marvel the eye and challenge the reflexes.

Werehog levels do have the motion controls appeal, but since they are the dogshit aspect of the game to begin with, I dont' see how upgrading from dogshit to catpiss makes the game superior. Ofcourse you run in to the same problem as No more Heroes or most other 3D games...you can't control the camera due to lack of 2 analog sticks on the wii... But being able to punch > lack of camera control in my opinion.

Everyone knows that Sonic levels are the best part of the game and they play better on the 360 because of the one button to jump, one button to spin dash/speed up, 1 button to slide and L and R to hop left or right. The insane Sonic running speeds I get on the xbox 360 version could not be achieved on the wii ever...you cant shake your hand as fast as you can hold B button. Wii version only gives you limited boost as well...while on the 360 version I can hold the boost button throughout the entire level. So gameplay is better on xbox 360 too.
