Wow! That sure was Sonic Colors but worse! I remember liking this game as a kid and while I feel like a lot of its level design has aged badly, I still think this remaster hampered the game a lot. I remember being so excited for this remaster way back and was actively defending it before it released. I was really stupid in 2021. This remaster is bad. At the very least I'm glad the PC version lets you rebind controls, I don't remember being able to do that on PS4.

I actually modded this game since I played it on Steam this time so the lighting would be way closer to the Wii version's lighting, and I'm glad I did because every piece of footage I've seen of the base version of this remaster looks so washed out and ugly. And like, I know it's been a long time since I played this as a kid, but the game just feels.... off? I don't know how to explain it. Maybe the Wii version was always like this.

Alright game, bad remaster. SEGA, please just do a direct port of Unleashed.
