I'm here to start a contest for Sonic Unleashed for the 360 and PS3... The challenge is simple, but requires alot of skill.
The point is to go throught the day stages required to beat the game (Except Eggmanland) with using as little special abilities as possible. Every time you perform one of the restricted skills, mark your self down. After you have finished all the stages, post how many times you used each individual for each stage and the combined total. Feel free to record your runs. I will record my runs next week.

As a side note... Your time it takes to beat the level doesn't matter, neither does how many times you die. So die away!!!

~Required Stages~
-Apotos Act 1
-Apotos Act 2
-Mazuri Act 1
-Holoska Act 1
-Chun-Nan Act 1
-Spagonia Act 1
-Shamar Act 1
-Empire City Act 1
-Adabat Act 1

~Restricted Skills~
-Homing Attack
-Boost (Including Air Boost)
-Stomp
-Wall Jump
-Light Dash

(Sorry, my computer glitches out if I post too many characters in one post so i'm being forced to double post)

I little note I never adressed about dying. If you die and must repeat a section over again, repeated skills don't count towards your score.

Here is how the grading system will work... Each skill is worth a specific amout of points. The one with the least amount of points wins.

Homing Attack - 1 Point
Wall Jump - 1 Point
Stomp - 3 Points
Light Dash - 5 Points
Boost/Air Boost - 10 Points (Don't even try...)

Reach the goal without moving - You win the game.

The point is to improvise...

Instead of using homing attack, try some well aimed jumps...
Can't boost to get across water? Find another way to keep up speed...
Don't home attack the enemies. Kick them...

I have tested all of the assigned levels. You can be VERY resourceful.

I have also found this very entertaining too. =) This really tests your skills...

You do know that mostly everyone will end up with the same amount of points right?

It depends... There are a couple stages you can beat without using any skills at all.

I just want to see what you are capable of with your limited resources.

[Luxray]

So wait...if you perform a stomp, you get 3 points, but if you stomp again you don't get any more points?

I say everyone here goes for the highest amount of points! First one to get to 999,999,999,999 wins the internet!

Every time you stomp, you get a point. If you die and you have to stomp something you already stomped once, you don't get a point.

Lets say you stomped on a 3-hit button twice then died. Then the next time, you get all 3 hits in. You only gain 1 point.

This is done so you dont have to beat the stage without dying.

And please be serious...

^If that's the case

I say everyone here goes for the highest amount of points! First one to get to 999,999,999,999 wins the internet!

GOGOGO

EDIT: Just so you know, i don't have Unleashed PS360 on me anymore so i cannot do this. (even if i did i wouldn't want to)

[supersaiyanmikito]

Come on... I want to see how well people can do...

Look... I'm not entering myself, but next week I will post videos on Youtube. After that, the contest is closed. I want people to learn that you can beat the game without abusing boost, with some extras added in.

The reason this is called the "Classic Unleashed Challenge" is because you are pracitally limited to what you had in the good old days.

So we are limited to our Sega Genesis Controllers? And a fox named tails following us?
All serious business, I guess I could pwn you all enter this....

Fair enough. But i doubt you'll get people here to enter this challenge due to the lack of activity lately.

[supersaiyanmikito]

I've beed advertising to other sites like FTCR, so I will get more takers.

Think of it this way... You can jump, kick, slide, quick step, and drift. You can use the more helpful skills but they will count against you.

And on subject, this is quite an interesting idea.  The only problem as stated above is that there's a simple enough minimum to most if not all the stages for this.  But instead of bothering with a point system or anything why not just make it "Try to get to the end while only using those abilities when required"?  Simple start, simple finish, kinda reminds me of the one time SadisticMystic went through all the levels without using the bounce bracelet.

[supersaiyanmikito]

You know what? I will change that... It will all be based on how many times you perform a restricted skill.

I have decided to make this a new kind of attack. LRA (Limited Recource Attack)

I will upload a video next week because I can't right now.

One example of a LRA...

Empire City Act 1
3 Homing Attacks
1 Light Dash
5 Wall Jumps
No Boosts or Stomps
