I hope this will send a greater message about Sonic Unleashed deserving a PC Port, so let's see it someday! Because Sonic Unleashed is a phenomenal game, a mix between the Daytime and Nighttime gameplay, which works with the story to make for a strong and fun experience! P.S. You should add consistent screenshots from the HD game, lol. Cuz people will get confused otherwise.

This game is incredible, from daytime to nighttime the levels are just so awesome to play and look at. The fact this game only came out on console is a damn shame. I have spent 1000s of hours modding this game and would spend 1000s more. Not sure why Unleashed Wiis images are sprinkled in here.
We know for a fact that while there has not been an offical PC port there was one in the works. This is one of the most deserving sonic games that has never been on PC, and especially with GOG could use it, as while I have played a little bit of the ps2/wii version there are two whole versions to play and perserve, aside from the more well known PS3/Xbox360 editions. (or we could even mention the Java version)

One of my favorite games, personally. The fact this hasnt been released on Modern Platforms or even on just PC yet is absolutely criminal. Vote today, and maybe that wish can finally come true...

This game never came out for PC, so i don't know why this is here. Focus on voting the already released Sonic games for PC like SONIC R, 3D BLAST, Adventure and even NiGHTS Into Dreams, along JET SET RADIO. Don't bring fake hopes

I have both, the Ps2 and Ps3 version of this game, and I have loved them since I was a teenager. Playing them is such an amazing experience that I just want this game (both versions) to be available for more people!!! This game makes you feel like you're actually traveling the world, getting along with everyone, and appreciating being alive, it's such a beautiful game.

This game (Xbox and PS3 version) was the first showcase of a new gameplay formula, with the first iteration of the ground-breaking Hedgehog Engine 1. Riveting speed gameplay that kept me on my toes, and charming combat and swinging by night. The game is very reactionary, which really puts the player in the shoes of Sonic, it was and still is amazing. This game deserves to be on GOG because to this day, Sonic games take ideas from this title. That's JUST gameplay, there is a beautiful story of friendship, while being a globe-trotting adventure, with places that resemble places in our real world, with amazing music to follow suit. There was also various short films that revolved around Sonic and his companion that were very charming, Night of The Werehog is a short film revolving around this game that became a Halloween classic, and it manages to capture my heart everytime I see it! Sonic Unleashed is a title you can tell the developers were proud of, its a disappointment that it hasnt seen the light of day on modern hardware, especially for looking so beautiful, even with specs of old hardware.

Sonic Unleashed is so great it was the first 3D game with the boost formula which was incredible. The whole game was amazing right from the beginning with the intro cutscenes to the ending there’s so much to enjoy such as the environments, music, characters and gameplay. It’s such a shame that this game has not had an official port/remaster I honestly think it needs one so that many fans who are new to the series or those who have not had the opportunity to play this game as they might not own the consoles to play the game so it would be great if people would have the chance to experience this masterpiece of a game but honestly accessibility to these older games can be really poor as many of them like Unleashed are stuck on the hardware they came out on so hopefully Sega and Sonic Team can start to change things an give people the opportunity to play these games again.
This game is amazing, even if it got criticized on release, many fans and gamers alike have come back to it and its now considered one of the best in its series, but there are also thousands of people who haven't been able to play it and undoubtedly would if it released on PC, games like this have absolutely no business being in the console-only hell they are.
While it’s certainly not my favorite Sonic game, I would be lying if I said it was a mostly fantastic experience. I really hope it gets a remaster soon that irons out my issues w/ it such as the medals and Dark Gaia Phase 1
Those games also need your vote!

Infamous: Second Son - Limited Edition
Infamous: Second Son - Limited EditionThis edition, when pre-ordered, also comes with the exclusive Cole's Legacy. Cole's Legacy is an expansion pack for Infamous: Second Son which was initially available only by pre-ordering the game (For US Customers), or purchasing the Special Edition (All other Countries). The pack contains missions uncovering the events which happened during the seven year time span between the activation of the RFI in Infamous 2 and the storyline of Infamous: Second Son. This is the only time when Zeke Dunbar makes a cameo appearance and Dr. Sebastian Wolfe's brother Raymond Wolfe appears in a cameo as well. After completion of Cole's Legacy, the Cole's original bike courier jacket is awarded for in-game use. The design of the jacket is slightly different compared to the first two games of the series. In this game, the design of the jacket shows some tears in the front and the back of the jacket and rather than the yellow pads being sewed up on top of the black jacket, the yellow and the black are sewn together imitating as a jacket pad-less. There are also some more minor changes such as the zipper on the jacket is also revealed due to Delsin wearing it without zipping it up and covering it, and also small changes to the collar area of the jacket. Since June 25, 2014, European Infamous: Second Son players can now access the Cole’s Legacy’ DLC from the PlayStation Store
