The rumor Sonic Unleashed Wii/PS2 versions has 7 stages may be true

A big disappointment from SEGA because of their laziness
SEGA has just updated their official Sonic Unleashed Website and has made a big mistake for Wii/PS2 gamers. A while back, there was a rumor going around saying the Wii/PS2 builds of Sonic Unleashed were only featuring 7 stages while the 360/PS3 versions were featuring 9. Well more than likely, this is true. On the site, under locations, SEGA has added Adabat and Mazuri. When clicking on Mazuri, under the video, you’ll notice it states Only on 360/PS3 version. This shows pure laziness. I have also heard that Empire City wasn’t in the Wii/PS2 strategy guide. Not a smart move SEGA.
EDIT: here is a picture for the ones who can’t load up the page.

SUCKS.
So why does the XBOX 360 version have better graphics AND MORE LEVELS
and the Wii only has 7 levels and they’re the
SAME PRICE LOL
“Not a smart move SEGA.”!!!!!!!
Wow, I don’t see why it’s such a terrible thing. I mean, maybe it isn’t SEGA’s fault, and Dimps, the people who developed it, chose themselves not to put the stages in. Think the sudden hate is all a bit too harsh- the game still looks fantastic regardless.
Thanks SEGA, you motherf**kers. Now my Unleashed experience is ruined and I haven’t even played it yet!!
SEGA should just hand Sonic over to Nintendo already. They obviously can’t handle the responsibility.
Now Im pissed.
No way Nintendo should have Sonic! Otherwise PS3/360 owners will no longer have Sonic games. HELL NO.
I win because I can get the Wii version and PS3 version.
Why the hell are you guys overreacting?
It’s not that bad of news.
so what buy a next gen system i got a PS3 and Wii best of both worlds baby
just wait guys i bet that level will end up being downloadable content.
Sorry, Sonication-sama.
I’m just upset that the Wii version is toned down and the PS3/360 get all the good stuff. It sucks only having one of the three main competitors.
@kev: We Own!
I’m going to get it February when I get enough money for a xbox.
LOL I just laugh at this! of course it sucks not having 2 stages or 1, but what? that doesnt mean the game is RUIINEEEDD it might even play better, if its fun it will be worth the time. Who knows there might be an exclusive wii stage…but anyways Wii owners had Sonic in Brawl ,Secret Rings, Mario and Sonic and now Black Knight EXCLUSIVELY FOR THEM! including me XD
It’s that I have no money. I know I’m overreacting. Sorry guys, I’m usually not like this.
Seen it coming.
Heh, I had a feeling this would happen. It’s why I played it safe and went straight for the 360 version.
1. Stop overeacting!
2. Isn’t it Sonic Team or Dimps fault? Why would you blame Sega?
3. It shouldn’t matter if 2 levels aren’t in the Wii version because Sonic has more games for the Wii than 360/PS3.
4. Thank goodness it wasn’t more than 2.
Hold on. We already know that there’s an Adabat stage on the Wii—there was a trailer released for it.
I know, I know. I just made a fool of myself. Let’s all just pretend this never happened.
And they say that humans are more evolved!
Me? am human, but I am more evolved by my sanity, unlike most of you!
I went insane already, and I became so insane, I became sane.
What if they are planning to release the last two levels over wifi on wii? Can they?
Well I’m very lucky that I have both a Wii and 360. Wii owners should be happy, anyway! They get SBK instead!
Every time someone says “Sega should sell Sonic to Nintendo”, they’re really thinking, “Miyamoto should develop a Sonic game”. First of all, I doubt Nintendo would have Miyamoto make it, it would probably end up being developed by Good Feel (Wario Land: Shake It) or Treasure, and if that happens, what was the point of selling Sonic in the first place?
can they release the last two levels over wifi?
Does that make sense?
Wii has SONIC AND THE BLACK KNIGHT/SECRET RINGS!!! STOP COMPLAINING!
WE HAD TO SUFFER FROM NEXT-GEN! DON’T COMPLAIN NINTENDO FANS!
Here is exactly how Sonic will become ‘cool’ again.
1. After Unleashed, SEGA should develop a FULL HD Classic Sonic 4, as if it was designed right after Sonic 3.
2. While doing this, a seperate team will be developing a new 3D Sonic game, trying to make it better than Unleashed.
3. After a year, Sonic 5 (Classic) will be developed.
4. After this, the NEXT 3D Sonic (New).
This cycle should keep repeating, pleasing all kinds of gamers.
Anyone agree?

Awesome shirt is awesome. Though I think I see Chip hanging from the tree…
Wow some people are CRAZY LOL
Raise your hand if you pre-ordered or are buying Sonic Unleashed NO MATTER WHAT!
(Raises BOTH HANDS xP)
YES! Although my sympathy goes out to the PS2/Wii buyers. Damned SEGA. Dimps either couldn’t handle it, or they wanted to keep Sonic Unleashed to one DVD on the Wii/PS2 version. I’m installing this to my hard drive along with my other games. It’s a pretty awesome feature. Thanks Microsoft! Windows might not be great, but the Xbox sure is! *Yes… I’m a Mac.*
Beacuse there is no Wii trailer from mazuri and empire city it dosen’t mean that there is 7 levels on the Wii/PS2 version.
@Oznic: Hey man. From the word go it has been rumoured that the Wii version would feature less than the 360.
@All: I think it’s a bit harsh to slam SEGA for this and start slating Unleashed. Two levels missing? Not that big-a deal is it? Really? My guess is that the limitations of the Wii/PS2 are the main reasons the levels have been removed. Not Laziness.
COME ON UNLEASHED! lol
Ok, I didn’t saw that yellow text. I don’t care that much. I’m glad cus the Holoska level is in the PS2/Wii version. I But I’m glad that it’s just 2 levels not mor like 4!
[...] the story that Michael Bonawitz broke a few hours ago here on TSSZ News, we have obtained scans of the official Prima strategy guide for the game that [...]
You can’t just go openly blaming Sega in your news article. You have no proof and not to mention it’s unprofessional. I doubt Sega or Dimps would just leave out 4 levels just because they felt like it or because they one day got lazy and said “Yawn, let’s just finish it here and get it into stores”.
Eh? Doesn’t sound like a big deal to me.
And Dimps made the Wii version, they should be the ones to blame.
Disapointment. Oh well, it’s not like it’ll be that big a difference
secret rings and blacknight suck. at least yall got sonic 06. i hope that in the wii i just havent unlocked empire city yet . the games i metiond is like putting link in a space battle
How can the PS2 and Wii have 7 locations and XBOX and PS3 have 9. How does this show equality for Gamers who have XBOX/PS3 and Wii/PS2. This is not a smart move. I have sonic unleashed on PS2 and yes there is only 7 stages. No empire city and the other 2.
Ahh.. God Damn!!!
Why is that no Mazuri and Empire City on PS2 Version!!??
UNFAIR !!!!!!!
