Poll Results: Chao in Sonic Unleashed

Earlier this month, we asked you all how important of an element Chao are in Sonic Unleashed. Out of all the questions I see in the comments… heck, even my inbox… Chao always seem to come out on top. What did all the campers have to say about them though?

Based on over 700 votes, 44% of the campers decided that while Chao are fun, they can certainly live without ‘em. That’s nearly 50% of the Camp Sonic viewers who suggest that they really aren’t necessary to make Sonic Unleashed a killer game.

Quickly following the dominant vote was Chao are “Very Important” at 29%, followed by “Won’t consider buying the game without them” at a surprising 16%. Will that many of you honestly not consider Sonic Unleashed without Chao? There is after all another game to get your Chao fix from this year (Sonic Chronicles for the Nintendo DS).

On a final note, before my Inbox fills up with the obligatory “Will there be Chao in Sonic Unleashed????” emails, I want to take a moment to reiterate that we will not have that answer until SEGA is ready to answer that question.

    i just want to know if chao are in the game! but i can wait for the game to come out for some reason.
    ps. posting from a wii is harder than on a comouter. :(

    To say the truth, chao would be a great idea for this game. Knowing that Sonic is the only playable character, it would be cool to make a dark chao at night, and a good chao during the day. Plus, Werewolf Chao would look soo kickass!

    that would be totally awesome anyway i still dont know how to make sonic chaos on SA2B xD

  4. how many beans makew 5!

  5. that is an awsome idea werehog chao would be total bad-ass
    humongous pudgy arms cool looking snarl dark spikes i really hope chao are in sonic unleashed

    @RockerDuDe: yeah i can never keep my hand still.”posting from computer right now”

    @Kev: it’d be cool if they had HD fur, like were-sonic. maybe chao that evolve in the night in real time, on the internal clock, could become were chao. maybe they would just make a were version of every type of chao.
    another idea is that a chao that hatches “or evolves” on a night scheduled for a full moon, they would be were chao. :)

  7. i was looking at the sa2b credits and hashimotto was the head director of chao or whatever. so chao will probally be in the game because he is the head game designer or whatever.

  8. Spittingup July 27, 2008

    @allie: cool. I actually just replayed the stories myself, but I never read the credits. it’s my fatal flaw!

  9. RockerDuDe July 27, 2008

    yay chaos!!!!!

  10. @allie: that’s what i thought too this is the sonic game we have been waiting for anyone notice that the sonic games downfall started when chao stopped making appearances i really hope they’re in there i just love their cute little faces

  11. RockerDuDe July 27, 2008

    what the hell are you talking about? i thought this talk was about chaos!!!!!

  12. @David Leggett:

    Yeesh, there sure seems to be alot of spam going on now. Guess that means your site’s becoming more popular! ;)

    @Dratinifan13:

    That does sound pretty sweet, but the concept of them straying with the Chao formula just made my head explode, for better or worse…

  13. Spittingup July 27, 2008

    WTF?!?!
    What’s up with all of the spam?

  14. RockerDuDe July 27, 2008

    going back to the important stuff……

    i want chaos in Sonic Unleashed!!!!!!

  15. @Spittingup: Probably just one of the folks we had to ban today. It’s been dealt with.

    @DudeMeister:

    …Did I miss something? Did you mean ‘My Dream’ thing?

    I wasn’t at E3, and they don’t let people play Demos at E3.

    ~

    Looking back through my ONM collection, they had an article on the Leipzig Games convention, and they said this.

    “Unlike E3, the Games Concention lets the public get their hands on the games Nice.”

    That is probably when SEGA will release the Sonic Unleashed Demo. I think the Convention is in September…

  17. TailstheHedgehog July 28, 2008

    whats spam? is that an advert? One of those annoying pop up things.
    (scratches head)

  18. Umiyuri July 28, 2008

    @David Leggett: I’m sorry about that, Mr Leggett. I went mad for a bit…

    But anyway, the point was Chao, right? Okay. Chao = cute. Chao in most situations = cute. Chao being ripped apart by an evil lycanthropy-stricken Sonic the Hedgehog = not cute. If Chao ever end up in this game, it’ll be an Omochao cameo.

    Coincidentally, Omochao = annoying. So if you get ticked during Werehog levels you could pick up Omochao and throw him at enemies.

    @TailstheHedgehog: Spam is the random crap that clogs the Internet. And administrators are the ones who wield the plungers.

  19. Slimpy a animal July 28, 2008

    I wonder for how long SU information will be slow…
    :(
    I’m ecxtactic for 2 games this year Sonic Unleashed and Little Big Planet(in witch I’m planning to do a Seaside hill level )talk about originality
    anyways this site is soo good I hope it doesn’t get restricted to only Sonic Unleashed

  20. Chaoscontrol July 28, 2008

    @David Leggett: what is your e-mail? I want to send you a picture of the were hog I drew

  21. i would like to have dreamcast or gamecube console to play sonic adventure 2 or battle

  22. Does anyone know if there will be ANY talking in Sonic Unleashed? From the cutscene parts we’ve seen so far it doesn’t look like it!

  23. Jujuchan July 28, 2008

    that was the opening sequence, not the cutscenes. theres never been speech in an opening sequence. and plus, there was MUSIC playing in the backround. if there is speech they cut it out in order to put the music in.

  24. Sonic The Hedgehog July 28, 2008

    I still think the Chao should be in the game, they should be collectable in the town stages. If you find one, it improves the world, restores parts of the town that was damaged maybe? or they could be used to unlock bonus levels. I still think they should have the chao that can be collected, they should have the Master Emerald Shrine and have them live there, and make that world be theirs, where they modify it however they want.

    Like the more chao you can find, the more interesting and developed their world becomes.

  25. man they’re isnt any new sonic unleashed info leaking out i wonder how long this is gonna last….

  26. Sonic The Hedgehog July 28, 2008

    someone should write SEGA.

  27. Chaoscontrol July 28, 2008
  28. @Kev: who knows, but if you ask me, most likely when we get closer to november.

    considering all the stuff from E3 we gotten, that’s my guess.

    (I’ll be standing by this time for reply since I literally didn’t come back last post ^_^)

  29. UmbreonTheDark July 28, 2008

    @Kev

    Hun, E3 just passed (kinda) and you can’t expect info to come every few days. Just chill we have a lot of info as of now so be happy sega released the info we have :)

  30. why doesnt SEGA says yes or no why do they have to be mean :S

  31. @UmbreonTheDark: whatever…. all i wanna know for now is whether chao will be in there or not

  32. I only voted “won’t consider buying the game without them” because “very important” didn’t seem to be enough to me.

    Sure I’ll get the game, but I bet it’ll suck ass after a month or so without a Chao Garden.

    And no, we won’t be getting our fix in Sonic Chronicles. They’re power-ups, not breedables. Epic failure.

  33. Golden~Hedgy July 28, 2008

    I don’t mind if the Chao are in the game or not ^^ I didn’t get to vote though 0.o

  34. @Quartz:

    Well you sure seem to be optomistic. :P

    Even though the Chao Gardens in Chronicles probably won’t be what we normally perceive as a Chao Garden, at least its a sign that the Sonic series (with or without SEGA; “My Dream” in NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams possibly being another sign) is moving back toward Chao breeding.

  35. RockerDuDe July 28, 2008

    it better be becouse if it is not SEGA will have problems with me!

  36. KC Cross July 29, 2008

    @RockerDuDe: ME 2!

    (Sonic ZOOMS in.)

    Sonic: “ME THREE!”

    (The sun goes down…………….)

    Were-Sonic: “Me FOUR!!!!!……….I think. Wait…………well, three, but whether it’s say or night, then….YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!!!”

    KC: “I’m not really following you.”

    Were-Sonic: “Falcon……….PUNCH!!!!!!!!” haha

  37. KC Cross July 29, 2008

    @KC Cross: Were-Sonic: “day*”

    KC: “Ha Ha u cant spell”

    Were-Sonic: “That’s IT! BREAK YO SELF FOO!!!!”

    KC: “OH SNAPZ ITS WERE-SONIC SON!!!I”

    Were-Sonic: “IMA FIRIN’ MAH LAZAH!!!!!!!!!” haha

  38. do any of you have an emulator?

  39. @Nano: Yea.

    Super Nintendo & Nintendo DS.

    What’s up?

  40. i would like to know where do you download it the emulator…
    could you tell me the site?

  41. Sonic The Hedgehog July 29, 2008

    Is it true that SEGA is making a Dreamcast 2?

  42. DarkChaos July 29, 2008

    @Sonic The Hedgehog: I believe that is a false rummer, could be wrong though.

  43. Sonic The Hedgehog July 29, 2008

    would be cool though. thanks

  44. Darkspines July 29, 2008

    9/9/09, dream cast 2.

  45. Sonic The Hedgehog July 29, 2008

    whats with that date 9/9/09, the first Dreamcast was 9/9/99. Why is pattern like that, is 9 a special number? or is SEGA being cool?

  46. Darkspines July 29, 2008

  47. Darkspines July 29, 2008

  48. @David Leggett: That email that i got, was that for the Fanart contest, or was that just a random giveaway?

  49. Chaos Blast July 29, 2008

    @Darkspines:
    Speaking of Black Night, Bet you £2 the next one in the ‘Storybook Series’ will be set in Ancient China. :D
